    I think the joke is your public transport.

            If there was a functioning public transport, they could just, you know, meet.

              You realize that distance is 4,700km, the distance between Lisbon and Moscow. It takes 3 days by train without a stopover. Public transportation doesn’t make meetings any easier.

                Yes, and I’ve personally taken three-day same-country trains before, back when it was the cheaper option. And guess what, non-private planes are also public transport.

                  Wait, so your “the joke is your public transport” comment is with the impression the US doesn’t have planes? I still have no idea what the hell you were trying to say

                    Nope, that was about trains. Planes came up later.

      No country on Earth has public transportation that would make a cross-continent relationship feasible.
