Why won't Israel allow them to have an airport? Did that airport make Afghanistan self sufficient? I would have to read up on that again myself, I know there was a civil war happening. It's not about pretending. Why did Israel and Egypt do that?
I don't appreciate your tone regarding Russia. Russia always had access to the Black Sea(pre invasion of Crimea) and they still do even now. That's how they're exporting grain and gas to Africa, Middle East, and Asia. Russia is a super power, not a regional power, and they are single handedly dismantling the uniploar world. Russia also has access to the Baltic Sea, Barents Sea(Murmansk future warm water port), Sea of Japan, Sea of Oshkosh, and the Bering Sea. Russia is still shipping gas through Ukraine post war even right now so idk where you're getting your information from. Russia has other ports in the Black Sea other than Crimea(Ukraine) for what it's worth. Ukraine was invaded because Rurik and the Kievan Rus. Putin has stated that. Did you know Moscow is the third Rome?
you are going to sit there with a straight face and think Israel, who has some of the best airport security in the world, will allow an airport where they have no control sit on their border?
Kabul’s airport stands despite several civil wars because it’s important. Thats the first thing America secured when it invaded. That’s my point. Everyone knows airports are important for numerous reasons.
Slow your roll comrade. I said Russia was a superpower. They exploit their access to land, sea, and air. That’s my point. Thats how you show self-sufficiency and why sanctions/tariffs target those kinds of economic modes. Cause they are that important. The Bering Sea is a cold port, I’m not sure what you are talking about.
I didn’t say they stopped exports through Ukraine. I said they complained about how they were being charged.
if Iran offered to build and administer an airport you think Israel isn’t going to blow a gasket?
You're talking about the electric payments right? I think that's an internal matter and that might've even been resolved. Fatah owed Israel or some nonsense and Fatah stopped paying for Hamas/Gaza.
This nothing to do with electric payments. The point is once the Palestinians had an elected government that wasn’t Hamas, why is Israel collecting taxes like it has any say in Palestines exports and imports? Hong Kong was under British rule, once they gave it up they no longer have a say in what Hong Kong/China does. India isn’t a British colony anymore. They aren’t collecting dues for them no matter how much modern infrastructure they put in place for them. They now trade as equal partners.
so when you are talking about Gaza not being able to govern itself. You really need to be asking what will happen if Israel minds its own business.
If Ukraine and Russian can still pump gas while under a war footing. You confirmed this. why can’t Israel work as equals with the Palestinians to make both sides economically sustainable while dealing with Hamas remnants?
