    After the dust settles Russia is going to be well and truly under China’s thumb. Putin will forever be known as the leader who gave up Russian sovereignty in a vain attempt to earn the title “Vlad the Great”.

    I still don’t know how the bald fraud gets all the credit for Russia simply cashing in on years of high oil prices. He was lucky to be in charge when the going was good,he mistook his luck for ability and now here we are. The fool could have gone out on top but instead chose to play the 19th century game of geopolitics forgetting that nukes are a better deterrent to invasion in the modern world than mountains or rivers.
