Great talk !
thank you for providing us with your view of the situation of russian underbelly. One hets the sense that this is a very long term issue, and that, somehow, Russia is tackling one after the other the lingering issues left out by the collapse of the soviet union. The scale of the work, the fact that it is now already 35 years already and there is still so much to do to achieve stability.
It is a foresight of what awaits western nations once they go through their own collapse. It’ll take decades ro rebuild them, if ever possible.
This is a very important talk and you are more than welcome to develop this issue of the relationship between Russia and the former soviet republics.
best regards
François Bernard, "Old problems" with ethnic diasporas in Russia are the "bread and butter" of the FSB and, in fact, have never gone unnoticed. On the other hand, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has always been an external, visible lever of "control" over these diasporas and could not act unilaterally without coordinating its actions with the special services. Sometimes, even in violation of the Russian Criminal Code. The Azerbaijani diaspora (as well as the Armenian diaspora) existed during the Soviet era and continues to develop in modern Russia. No one has ever infringed on the rights and opportunities of Azerbaijanis or Kyrgyz who have Russian citizenship. It is clear that Russia has always had powerful levers of political and economic pressure on other "friendly" states of the former USSR through these diasporas, which consist mainly of law-abiding Russian citizens of a certain ethnic origin. "Nothing personal...!" In war, as in war.
It was my understanding that Russia's relationship with Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan and Armenia were quite cordial in the recent past in stark contrast to Georgia and the Baltic Bonsais. I would like to second Francois Bernard's request above and look forward to more expansion on this topic in one of your future blogs.
Thanks!
Great interview! In addition to what Dmitry said about the "industrial potential" of the United States (or rather, its lack thereof). Even now, when modern wars have proven and demonstrated the archaic nature of the American approach to the technical equipment of the army, navy, and air force, and have led to a change in approach, the US military-industrial complex is completely uninterested in mass-producing cheap and effective weapons! They still want to produce billions of dollars worth of coffins that fly, swim, and crawl on the ground, with a high risk of being destroyed by cheap countermeasures. The Pentagon and the military-industrial complex will become an unbearable burden that will drag the United States to the bottom. What kind of "industrial potential" can we talk about if no one can make the existing one work for the security of the United States (!), and there is absolutely nothing under "planned development"?
mort1123, Unfortunately, I do not have information about ground-based drones, let alone their classification and use. I can only say that there is no guarantee of safe evacuation of the wounded using a "medical" drone or conventional means. Anything that moves is already a target.
Kacper Nowak, If all these distractions are indeed distractions that even average minds (such as mine) can perceive as such, I ask my selves, what drives average people to desire to believe in distractions?
Thanks Dmitri. Was really impressed by the breadth and depth of your views.
Blackrock just declared Ukies to be a lost cause... Holy crap the situation there is really dire
Kacper Nowak, this has been known since January 21st, just not widely publicized. The "nice guys" at Black Rock new that there would be no Ukraine reconstruction as soon as Trump was inaugurated. Smart cookies!
If the main cheerleaders and supporters are declaring you to be a lost cause then welll.... I am not talking about bot accounts where on social media bot are still screaming about "slava something"
