Forecast for Latin America: Cold (War) Winds from Russia
cedarford – Your whole argument is based on the premise that Russia has a legitimate sphere of influence. They don’t. No one around them wants their influence.
Russia is dying, literally. Corruption and criminality is complete. The people are not breeding sufficiently to replace themselves. Atop that, disease and alcoholism is rampant. All the beautiful women are using their looks to get the heck out of the cesspool. Same with anyone with any skills. Moscow has to hire Ukrainians to do the work, because Russians no longer can.
People commonly think that it was all over when the USSR died, but there is still a vast decomposing corpse. It’ll be another generation until we see the last of that repugnant regime’s effects fade. By then, it’ll be too late for Russia. It’ll be a vast tract of lightly populated land. All industries will be manned by outsiders, and Russians will no longer be in charge. Russia is finished.
