    Also not an issue if you’re in the rich part of the world, or just one that has a lot of water. Fortunately I don’t think water is gonna be what makes Russia invade, don’t know what their supply looks like but I can’t imagine it’s not enough.

      Russia has the largest freshwater lake by volume, Lake Baikal, so they aren’t likely to invade anyone because of their drinking water needs. Especially because Ukraine has been instrumental in reducing their need of fresh water.

        It’s a big lake but a bigger country. I don’t think Russia will be the first to have big water issues. Rather, I would look to Mexico City, Panama, Arizona, Nevada, California.
