I believe as the years with President Obama progress we will not only make enormous strides in returning to a viable economy, affordable health insurance, a workable national immigration policy, but, also 'Peace between Russia, China and the USA.'
I guarantee that in only one year in office, The West will come to find out they share a great deal in common with The East and it will bring the relations between these powers into a solid understanding of peaceful progress to nuclear disarmament.
It is a very exciting time on the International Front for President Obama. We will be involved with new agreements and treaties that will expand the horizons of possibilities for economic opportunity between countries as the USA rehabilitates its manufacturing sector.
I sincerely believe as the gap of misunderstandings closes between these powers, there will realizations of how far civilization has come and how well we have accomplished peaceful co-existance between sovereign nations; finding no reason ever again to 'chance' danger to their populous, their allies or returning to rhetoric that casts suspicion on the good intentions of treaties.
Vice President Biden should extend a more welcoming word to Russia as he is underestimating the resolve of this allie. He is wrong, his criticism uncalled for and it is very dangerous. Every country on Earth has weaknesses and the USA has many. There are no words that can cast 'shadowy' images on Russia that could not be cast on the USA as well.
Russia, under President Dmitry Medvedev and Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, has made enormous strides in global leadership, including near border countries to the USA. I would never underestimate their resolve or ability nor especially the longed lived intention of Russia to see an Earth intact and people of all nations living viable lives.
Currently, the issue of alcoholism plagues Russia. It has for sometime. It is one of the resolves of President Medvedev to stop this egregious habit of the Russia people.
I have a suggestion.
Perhaps one of the best places President Medvedev can begin to change the 'social conscience' of Russia regarding the use of alcohol, is in relation to the very sad syndrome called "Fetal Alcohol Syndrome." Certainly, every Russia obstetrician that gives care to women, wants nothing but healthy babaies born without the threat of diminished mental capacity.
Bringing social conscience to the Russian people regarding the dangers to their unborn would be a way of raising concern for pre-natal care and the understanding drinking alcohol during pregnancy harms a fetus and ultimately an infant. It is vitally important to stop the abuse of alcohol within a society at a point where the most innocent of lives are effected due to adult over indulgence. I wish the Russian medical society great success in regard to their unborn and ultimately their population. The USA went through a similar awakening some time ago.
There is much Russia, China and the USA already share in the way of space exploration and the opportunities to 'bond for THE FUTURE'S benefit' are endless. All one has to do is recall the recent 'short fall' of funding to NASA to realize how much cooperation between nations can change the possibility of deep space travel. I mean, there is no reason for a 'space race' to Mars, is there? The dangers far exceed the reasons for lack of cooperation between these nations.
I believe when these leaders are finished we will know a peaceful and sustainable resolve in the Middle East, a reasonable reduction in nuclear armaments and a return to The Non-Proliferation Treaty; where there are only a few nuclear nations with plans for none.
The future of the people of Earth all line on the same path. A sustainable planet with nations of educated and employed peoples able to support their country. There is some work to be done, but, not as much as one might expect. I believe many 'leaps of faith' can begin as a reassurance to more and more cooperation as time goes on and the trust between nations grows. I would like to see a strong return to peaceful economic cooperation in the years of the Obama Presidency with most achieved in the first term.
Our planet is tired. It needs stewardship to renew its biotic ability to sustain and propagate life. It is achievable and I believe Russian leaders are more than ready to step into the light with renewed dignity and commitment. They have many, many 'Firsts' in Russia, including being a major power to sign the Kyoto Protocol. Perhaps it is time for Russia to act within its "Friendship Pact of 2000" with China to pursue cooperation with Kyoto?
I completely reject any septicism of Russia and welcome the people of Russia as friends.
