    I don't have much to add here: https://www.pravdareport.com/opinion/144914-india_russia/

    We are talking about Putin here not Ivan Grozny, While regaining the lost oblasts is not unlikely, How the hell do you think Russia will wrench europe away from pindostan?

    In order for Russia to have good relations with europe, europe would need to undergo a total ideological and cultural revolution.

    The EU is not a separate power, there is little point is treating them as a separate power as long as they think they need US protection.

    Russia might be able to talk to the EU when US forces have left Europe, but until then there is no point negotiating with the stable boy...

    For a while France had their own voice but that has gone as well a proven with Mistral...

    The huge irony is that the British people got a vote to decide whether to be told what to do by unelected liberal officials in Brussels and said no despite now having to step outside an economic market they have depended on for all these years. They are more attached to Washington than most of the EU anyway... which is amusing in its own way.

    Of course it is no different from all the eastern european countries fleeing oppression and dictatorship from Russia to find it in the EU and HATO....

    They know they need to be bitches to live well... they will change sides in a heartbeat... sounds like allies Russia can do without...

    New US report on PRC mil. power:

    The World is already multi-polar in most respects: the US/NATO controls W/C. Europe, the S. Pole & huge ice-free ocean areas, while Russia & China control most of Eurasia, Cuba, Venezuela & the N. Polar region. Soon, the EU may get in bed with China:

    • “The empires are coming back. There are at least three of them. We can say Russia, China and Turkey, big empires in the past. They’re coming back with an approach on their immediate neighborhood and globally, which represent for us a new environment. And Turkey is one of these elements that changes our environment.” (Joseph Borrell)

    I don't think having an Empire is worth it, if you are an Empire, than you are always at war. Which is not good economically, look at Turkey, they are involved in conflicts on all borders.

    Instead of having an empire have a understanding of goodwill and free trade in good faith, you will have more this way and your country will grow and if you do this there is not a time limit like on Empires. Of course you need a very powerful Military and a very good intelligence agency.

    That is what I would try to do(and maybe that is why I am not in power) but as we can see countries are taking a military route(this has been happening through out history).

    Being an empire is very hard.

    Empires are not the dick length metric that they are made out to be. They are accidents of history. The UK stuck its nose into non-developed lands (e.g. North America) and
    reaped colonial power and wealth. The US took over the UK's role after both WWI and WWII elevated it from a country with a GDP smaller than Russia (1905) and almost
    it doubled it during WWII alone. "Daddy Warbucks" sums up the windfall the US got during WWI when European gold moved to America and Europe ceased to be the
    center of global power.

    But the windfall does not last and the accidental conjunction of global (or regional for Rome) disappears. Nobody can sail the seas today and take over lands where the
    people do not even believe in land being property. That does not stop these losers from acting as if they can. Russia, to the USA, is like the aboriginal lands of the
    early 1800s. Liebensraum to be conquered. But hubris does not make power.

    China has joined the sanity reservation in terms of support for Wahabbi nutjobs. Back during the 1980s it was propping up Salafi Sunni Pakistan against
    the USSR in Afghanistan. I guess its experience with Salafi infiltration on its own soil (Uyghurs) must have woken up its leadership.

    WTF are you on about.  Read my post again.   Pakistan is Sunni with a small Shi'ite minority.   Iranians are Shi'ites.
    Salafis are almost exclusively Sunnis.

    China still needs Pakistan as it borders on India, Afghanistan & Iran.
    She also needs Turkey as it borders on Iran & has good relations with both Pakistan & India.

    The Uyghurs do not get any help from any Muslim country.

    They have been abandoned, with a possible exception of Turkey.

    No Muslims support them.

    Russia is going to sell S-400 systems to Iran as soon as the UN embargo runs out.    Russia has stated it will have no
    problems selling the systems regardless of the one-note Johnny yanquis and their threats of sanctions.    Since Russia
    is not bending the knee, the NATzO fake stream media is now talking about WWIII.   I suppose they think Russia
    will roll over and submit once it hears this.

    In fact, it appears that NATzO leaders really think that Russia in unable or afraid to engage in nuclear war to defend itself.
    These clowns are beyond detached from reality.   They are living in an alternate reality.

    Selling Iran S-400 and indeed the production rights for Su-30s perhaps would be the best thing Russia could do to prevent war in the region...

    Hahaha! Soviet/Russian weaponry in USSR/NK/PRC prevented them from being attacked by the US so far. 
    If the S-400 was so deficient, Turkey wouldn't be denied F-35s. 
    Iran has Jews & Armenians in its parlament. 

    If any nation is Islamofascist, its Turkey.

    I think Putin is just playing nice with Germany, they are not a emerging superpower, they do as they are told by the US, they have immigrants raping German women, they are brining in crap ton of immigrants that are going to be a drain.

    What do you guys think?

    He is basically saying that Germany could lead the EU, but it needs to get its head out of Americas ass and be a big boy... he could probably say the same to Micron too in the sense that France could also lead the EU away from the US and to a place more valuable to europeans and really be an independent Pole in the new multipolar world being created... or they could remain Americas bitch and scratching post... it is the choice of the europeans...
