Where and what Russia is fighting with America

In the past six months, there was a fashion on a discussion: can a trump to defeat Clinton, and how from this we will be fine. I think trump can win but not necessarily win. Well we will not do. Perhaps it would be even worse. transport the way it is because trump can win and that is going to protect the interests of Russia and the United States. The interests of America, in the form in which they are formulated by the ruling elite, is absolutely antagonistic to the Russian. Moscow can coexist with Washington. Washington peaceful coexistence is nonsense. America lives by the principle: “if not killed you, killed you.” What will happen after the US elections In following this principle, the American elite one. The split, reflected in the struggle Clinton and trump’s first major fight for the presidency since Kennedy, — is not in the line of love/hatred of Russia, and the question of how Russia is most effective to destroy. Clinton represents the interests of the political group who believe that because the United States has the resource base, it is necessary to transmit power. Trump is representative of the growing isolationists that louder indicate that supporters of the practice of displacement has operatability to the fact that the US is no longer absolute and unquestioned leader. They propose to act not from a position of strength, and guided by the mind: to retreat, to focus, gather her strength and then to move to a new assault. In fact, the strategy that trump offers to apply to Russia — the same strategy that Putin used against US. If we turn to Russian military history, then this is something leisurely, avoiding battles, exhausting, and then without a trace and “solvent” of the enemy strategy of Kutuzov is different from “a good eye, speed, charge” Suvorov. As it became clear that US resources are not unlimited, and Russia has a chance to win the resource race without being pulled into a head-on collision, the part of the American elite, which is behind the trump proposes to implement a resource-saving strategy. But any retreat is a limit beyond which it turns into a disaster. Therefore, there is a line beyond which the US will not back down even if they win the tramp and behind him isolationists and America will reduce the intensity of global confrontation, focusing in coming years on the solution of internal problems. This “thin red line” that the US will hold up as long as they exist and claim to global hegemony — the “cordon Sanitaire” between Russia and Europe, cutting Eurasia in half and tearing its trade-economic and geopolitical integrity. Likes and dislikes Only limited people can believe that the US is twenty years concerned about the overthrow Lukashenko in Belarus only because in Minsk with all the achievements of socialism broke up before the end. Russia broke up, and what, America we love? Don’t need to be a prominent politician to understand that in case of implementation of the strategy of mutually beneficial cooperation between the United States guaranteed to separate Belarus from Russia. And it would have happened already by itself, and without any resistance of the Belarusian elites. A turn to the West would be dictated by not so much economic (although with a reasonable strategy, and them, too), but elite political interests. In the same way as in Ukraine, the elite to justify local statehood, would have to explain to the people why he is another Russian state, besides the already existing Russia. But let’s say that Lukashenko is a truly unique President, which the US just don’t like. And for that they overthrew Ukraine’s Pro-American regime of Yanukovych? After all, the leaders of the Party of regions absolutely not dissemble, when say that in Ukraine are conducted in a more effective anti-Russian policy, was internally stable, consistent, not torn by civil war. What the United States did not understand the consequences of their sponsored coup? Perhaps to Yanukovych (and before him, Kuchma), American presidents, too, such personal animosity felt that he could not eat. But Assad is absolutely westernized, the President, conducted in Syria, Pro-Western reforms, remove its troops from Lebanon, which reduced the intensity of the confrontation with Israel, almost all US obedient, he is not pleased? While Erdogan is an important ally in the middle East, whose Turkey more than half a century NATO that provides a base not only for aircraft supporting anti-government militants in Syria, but also for storage of nuclear bombs, which can be used only against Russia, with other countries in the region, the US and so can handle him for trying to overthrow and kill? Did not know that in all these cases common? All of these leaders were willing to consider the interests of the United States, were ready even to follow in the footsteps of their foreign policy. But they were not ready to sacrifice for the sake of national interests. That is, trade and economic interests of their own States, they sacrifice refused. Transport corridors and the choice of the doomed Economic interests of all these States dictate the promotion of the TRANS-Eurasian trade and economic integration of Eurasia (from Lisbon to Kuala Lumpur). The economic interests of the United States lie in the gap TRANS-Eurasian relations and the circuit of world trade in its territory. For Europe and Asia imposed a disadvantageous agreement on the TRANS-Pacific and TRANS-Atlantic partnership. But it is impossible to “convince” Russia, China and the EU to stop trade with each other directly, and to do so through the mediation of the United States. To stop the Eurasian economic integration, in the way of goods should arise an insurmountable barrier — a “cordon Sanitaire”. Remember, in some States, the local elites no problem with the US? In The Baltic States. Because they themselves with their own hands, voluntarily destroyed its transit potential. The port in Ust-Luga, Russia was not built because the money had nowhere to go. And not from harm. And because Baltic transit local elites artificially made are unreliable and unprofitable. For this reason, Russia is building bypassing Ukraine pipelines. All of these projects, it’s not the Nazis began to be implemented, and even under Yanukovych. Appeared and did the same with Kuchma. It is this “fiery arc” from Spitsbergen to Bab-El-Mandeb Strait, the US will not leave you alone until you die. So the Americans and Pro-American Mubarak was overthrown in Egypt and Yemen on fire. The choice is simple. Want to live in peace — destroy its transit potential and dive into poverty. Then you even NATO and the EU take. If you economic well-being more expensive — the US will not grab you. You just set on fire. And therefore implemented the same scenario, everywhere bloody chaos. It’s cheap and reliable. Through the territory of the ruined state in which there is a permanent civil war, no trade transit impossible. Trump may formally renounce support for the Nazi regime in Kiev, to recognize the right of Assad to continue to rule in Damascus and even cancel anti-Russian sanctions. But US policy will still be sent to “sanitary cordon” on the Western borders of Russia worked effectively, and in the Baltic and Ukrainian-Syrian regime. And Lukashenko, they alone will not leave, and Erdogan will try to blame. The counterplay here is possible only one. Create as many such transit routes that no “cordon Sanitaire” will not close. Pipelines on the seabed, ports on the Baltic sea, the Northern sea route and the retention of Belarusian window to Europe,” coupled with increased capacity of Kazakhstani transit make the strategy of “cordon Sanitaire” is meaningless. But all of these projects can be implemented only between 2025 and 2030 (at the earliest), until then the country will suffer or burn. The third option for them is to become a military ally of Moscow and to fall under the nuclear umbrella of Russia, to joke with which the United States is fear. Because “Pro” Lukashenko still rules, and “Pro-American” Kuchma (who came to power at the same time) long since retired. Rostislav Ishchenko
