“Consider the issue of organizing the production of stationary and portable game consoles and game consoles, as well as the creation of an operating system and a cloud system for delivering games and programs to users,” says the Putin-approved instruction.

That's the only part that matters. The rest of the article is western chauvinism and nonsense.

And it isn't easy to do these things. Just brcause western companies with infinite money and labor can churn out some new system doesn't mean it's easy.

And the 5 to 10 years estimate comes from:

such western chauvinism in that last sentence.

I think it's naive to think you can do resource extraction without the negative effects of it. That just isn't something that exists. You have to tear up massive amounts of land using massive amounts of energy.

It's not like there's an "indigenous-people-friendly" form of extraction. In Bolivia there has even been contention between indigenous groups and the indigenous-led (I think?) government over proposed resource extraction projects.

Well they were in Palestine hrlping people so they're honorary non-whites which means it's no big deal. Already some cases of this when the US wasn't taking their citizens in Palestine.
