      Burma has always been one of the main consumers of our weapons.

      As for the "one of the main" I would argue, but now is not about that. In the USSR, there was the practice of training (for currency, by the way) the officers of many countries friendly to us. As a result, we earned money, and in many countries had numerous military men who were positively disposed to our country. In many countries of the Third World, it was the military who came to the supreme power, and this subsequently determined favorable political relations with these countries. Many presidents spoke and understood Russian. The same was true for institutions.
      So, after the Russian army has proved its effectiveness in a real combat situation, in my opinion it would be nice to resume the practice of training military specialists in our military educational institutions. And upon arrival at their homeland, these shots with knowledge of the Russian language will definitely know which weapon to choose and how to use it correctly.

              It is true, but not all. The launching ICBM is a "tank" weighing 40-200 tons - a very fragile and delicate creation. She needs a long booster flight area until the separation of warheads, free of missile defense. It is logical that the Chinese are considering the flight of their missiles through our territory. This is better than via Japan and Guam. I believe that ours, planning to adopt the Sarmat, which is capable of attacking fsha from the poorly covered missile defense system of the "south", is laying its routes through Kazakhstan and China. Therefore, mutual agreements and security guarantees with these countries are critical to ensure the inevitability of causing unacceptable damage to the aggressor.

    Positively. With Myanmar, which is well located between China, Thailand and Malaysia, good military-technical relations must be maintained.

      Ig? In principle, the IG until recently had an 3 focus:
      1) South with the city of Tasil.
      2) Damascus - Southern Quarters and Yarmouk.
      3) Hama - a pocket from where they were squeezed from Akrebat.

      Now there is a big attack on the pro-American SDF by Iraq. In the provinces of Hasaka and DeZ.

      However, Assad's opponents have a lot of masses and territories:
      American SDF from the eastern borders of Syria to the city of the millionaire Manbij. Almost 400km long and 150-200 wide is their state, which has several richest fields of Oil and Gas. Assad they do not recognize.

      from Yarabulus to Azaz there is a zone of the Sultan. 130 at 40 km. They with smiles on their faces will go to war on the one whom the Sultan indicates. And they are doing it now - advancing to Harp.

      Arfinsky canton - Kurds who bargained, bargained but did not bargain. Soon it will be the Sultan zone. Small Kurdish enclave 70x40km.

      Idlib anthill. There are a lot of groups, from those who can’t be bombed, to all kinds of military schools and Val Ansar (fugitives from the Caucasus Emirate). They have arms deliveries through Turkey. Armored vehicles (in an attempt to cut / stop the tiger at Dukhtur, they brought into battle 8-9 tanks and 5-6 BMP + 2 Shaheed BMP).

      The Rastan enclave is akin to the Idlib. It occupies a strategically important position between Hama and Homs, blocking direct communication and the M5 key track. 45x20km

      Southern groupings in Daraa - 100x50km. They are fighting hard, they are supported one way or another by Jordan and Israel (in that it regularly covers the Syrians if they are going to go on the offensive).

      Damascus itself is a powerful group with tanks in the Duma, Jobar. It was this group that was able to cut off the base in Harast and the Syrian army suffered very significant losses (by hundreds, plus 3 general and 1 posthumous general), was forced to transfer reinforcements from everywhere, including Hama - where the main attack went. Plus the city's satellites Dumeir and Al-Rabiya are also under the broads.

      So - what else is a lot of work.
