Did I hear a voice from Russia?
Perhaps, huh?
Can the world actually do without a Russian voice to maintain stability?
If there is an obvious example of the instability that occurs when Russia takes their toys and goes home, is Syria. Everything was lost in Syria when Russia was not there to provide input and stability. What happened there? Why leave Syria? I don't understand that one. The Black Sea is that important? Wow, I don't get it. Instability in the region directly effects Russia, why leave?
The USA should have been at least given a 'heads up' if Russia is going to leave a region. It isn't as though the USA and Russia aren't interested in the same scope of a regional stability. With Russia in Egypt, they need to rethink their presence in Syria.
I doubt I am the only one in the world that realizes Russia's withdrawal from the region is palpable. At least let the USA know their is a change in dynamics and let them have a leg up to get on top of it. I doubt anyone was entertaining the instability in Syria.
I know for a fact, the military leadership of major powers talk about all kinds of stuff. So, what happened in Syria? I was completely surprised to realize Russia was out of the Mediterranean for years when Syria was falling apart.
It doesn't make sense. For god sake, Russia has all the gas they want. It can't run it's ships? Huh? Huh? For real, huh?
The USA just wanted to get rid of all the major weapons still in Libya. Russia wasn't going to be next. I thought we said hello when Russia pulled into the port in Cuba. Like what is Russia thinking already?
Gaddafi was off the hook and killing major numbers of people. That had to stop. It was the right thing to do.
Vladimir, did you notice the danger the African Elephants are in? The elephants need the kind of protection you provided to the tigers.
I want the elephant groups to do some fund raising to hire rangers to protect the African elephants.
They are gorgeous animals. And they are social. Different than tigers. Tigers are more autonomous, but, elephants are very social. If you ever think you can lend a hand, and I know there are other demands on the Russian economy right now, but, it would appreciated.
The BEST assessment states extinction in 20 years, Vladimir. When you finish as President this time may be you could take up the African elephants as a hobby. Think about it. Take the kids.
It's the poachers, Vladimir. Maybe talk to China and ask China to get rid of the ivory culture. A big consumer of ivory is China. They need to use plastic, man. They should not use ivory. Find something else.
