I really hope that the water crisis is resolved in Iran. Their desert provinces are some of the harshest in terms of weather and no matter what we are, water is a fundamental right. I hope that the Iranian government can build some desalination plants and redirect pipeline companies to make...
How come Bangladesh did not consider the Turkish-Italian T-129 ATAK instead? The Philippines Air Force is already inducting them since this month as they got immediate clearance and Turkey has already increased production. You could have bought more helicopters with the same price.
The PhAF...
NATO is no longer relevant in the post-Soviet world. They just exist to maintain the unipolar order. However, for the Polish people, it is not the same. They have been at the receiving end of both Russia and the Nazi Germany and for that reason do not trust the European powers any more. At this...
Technically speaking, I doubt that the current afghan government is familiar with concepts like SPVs and consortiums. It is most likely that you will have to form a JV with Qatar Civil Aviation authority in order to operate this airport.
Kabul Airport is used to be a major international...
I agree. Let's hope that NATO comes to its senses. Their fear is "what's next after Ukraine?", especially for the Polish, given their history with the Russians and the betrayal by British and the French after promising to protect them.
Rajdhani is already there. We have all used it at some or the other point. I was talking about something like the Vande Bharat Train-18 and Train-20 variants. Long-distance, but really fast around 260-300 KPH. It doesn't have to be like the 400+KM Shinkansen, but it will definitely go a long way...
The project definitely will create employment and it's a nice thing, but wouldn't it have been better to upgrade the railway network between the two cities? I mean, an HSR (even if not a bullet train) between Delhi and Mumbai would make more sense. It is unlikely that given the fuel prices we...
Russia is sitting on resources worth many times over the worth of the European economies. It is a self-sustaining entity in almost all areas. It may lack the finesse of Western companies, but it has a massive industrial sector within - whether it is mining, heavy engineering, aerospace, space...
Certainly. But do you see this as an impediment in future relations between Pakistan and Egypt? As long as it is about oil and gas, the Mediterranean will be boiling.
I was referring to the initial pivot that Egypt was making before the whole UAE-Israel-Jordan-Greece-Egypt grouping. I still...
Pushing infrastructure is one of the most brilliant strategies that China adopted in gaining influence. This is something everyone is taking note of, whether they agree with the Chinese politically or not.
Focusing on building fundamental foundations for the countries, it has not only secured...
This is what I have found based on a report regarding research into the Sodium-based battery.
Judging by the recency of the research, the research is still limited and is only beginning to gain ground slowly into the mainstream tech. Sodium mining is possible due to the abundant availability...
Pralay's testing marks some significant changes in the way we make missiles - utilizing the components and tech in the existing missiles rather than reinventing the wheel every time and leaving the scope for future improvements. This is pretty impressive for DRDO that's stuck with sarkari...
Sorry buddy.. been long since we connected. Hope you are doing well. I keep coming here on and off. Work, family life and now this pandemic has been a pain in the rear.
UAE is becoming quite the regional powerhouse these days.
Liberalizing trade, strengthening the defense industry;
Enhancing ties with as many countries as possible;
Making their country a more attractive investment destination than ever before;
Collaborating more with regional partners both...
It is more about regional alliances, honestly. I was merely asking your views since Egypt has chosen to switch sides with the Arabs instead of the Turks.
Egypt's foreign policy is opposite to that of the Turkish one. If anything, you should be a bit concerned. This will most likely be deployed in support of the UAE-Jordan-Israel-Greece alliance against Turkish interests in the eastern Mediterranean sea.
