This Is Excellent Background For Russky-Mir Areas And What Moscow Has Done To Capture Them - It's More Like "Go" Than "Chess".... Definitely Watch This!

"We will look at five essential steps taken by Moscow to fuel military conflicts, create unrecognized quasi-states, and further transform them into so-called “gray zones.” "

Subtitles in English, you can get them via closed captions and auto-translate - and so far they’re doing a good job - otherwise the video is in Russian:

Another interesting fact - missiles with nuclear warheads require regular maintenance, because the radiation from the warheads irradiates the metal covering of the missile amongst other things. This makes the covering brittle and subject to metal fatigue, which under the high vibration conditions of a launch can cause seams and rivets to break, and asymmetric heating to occur - and the destruction of the top stage of the rocket. I wonder if there was any radiation signature left by this launch. It is at least the second Sarmat to have failed recently.
