West’s Main Enemies Meet

The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation is the new Warsaw Pact-with money and oil. Grouping Russia, China and much of Central Asia into an economic and security alliance, SCO will become the West’s greatest threat in years to come. Especially if they succeed in drawing India, Pakistan and Iran further into their orbit.

  1. 2/3rds of Ukrainians don’t want Nato membership, nearly half of them sympathise with Russia to the point of wanting annexation, the pro-Russian opposition could take back power at any time, and their president is about as popular as Winston Peters.

  2. It appears that China is not backing Russia. Russia will probably keep control of Abkhazia and Ossettia but their invasion of Georgia is the biggest boost for NATO since the invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968.

    NATO will counter by boosting defenses in the Baltic states which are vulnerable to Russian attack. Poland is not vulnerable to Russian conventional attack. If Russia attacks Poland they will be stunned and defeated by the Poles and NATO. The Ukraine is ground zero in Cold War II. I predict a swift and very controversial NATO membership for Ukraine.

    Cold War II was started when Russia crossed the Rubicon and invaded Georgia. Bush was wrong when he looked into Putin’s eyes and claimed he is a man we can do business with.

    Trevor and McCain have been vindicated in their distrust of the “new” Russia.
