I'd assume more of a concern troll type but you never know, there's more gullible/naive people that need things laid out in plain terms. Not necessarily knocking the person I was originally replying to, but don't forget half the population is dumber than the average. If we have to tell people not to eat laundry detergent than I can understand some people being not grasping military strategy or geopolitics.

Didn't know about that happening in Africa but doesn't surprise me, do you know of anything else like that happening in Southeast Asia? Might find myself in that area and would like to know what to look out for besides vodka and people yelling "cyka blyat"

I don't think it's a hugely strategic location for them right now; closest is India, to a degree, as I understand they use a lot of Russian tech as part of their defense - but SEA seems to be a fading / non-acute geopolitical area for Russia
