However, even a broad interpretation of 'landlocked' is flawed. Here's a 🧵why:
Claiming UKR is landlocked militarily requires overlooking Crimea's significance to Putin. It's key in controlling access to the crucial Caspian Sea, Don-Volga Canal, and a major portion of Russia's extensive inland waterway system. #Ukraine #MilitaryPerspective
In 2021, Putin emphasized the waterway's importance, pledging billions for development to connect the Black Sea and the Baltic.

In the War of 1812’s last major battle, MG Andrew Jackson defeated a numerically superior British force and defended New Orleans, one of the most critical commercial ports in the fledgling United States.
#Armyhistory #USArmy
Near the end of Dec. 1814, a large force of British troops under MG Sir Edward Pakenham landed unopposed 15 miles from New Orleans, beginning a campaign to seize the city.Under the leadership of MG Jackson, the Americans established Line JACKSON, 5 miles from New Orleans.
A force composed of 8 batteries of artillery and about 3,500 men, including Army regulars, sailors, marines, militia, Choctaw warriors, and pirates, manned the mile-long line. Another 1,000 U.S. militia under BG David Morgan and a naval gun battery defended the right bank.
