Eurasia: A Geo-political re-alignment

[Lauren Johnson]

If you were China and/or Russia how would you combat American machinations in those states?

Good question. I think the target of these machinations is the Russian populace. Wear them down and you get in more favorable government. This is done by an enemy that has unlimited resources as long as it can keep printing money and forcing others to take it. The beliefs that the Empire is about to collapse are mostly wishful thinking IMO.

I see Russia trying to play the rope-a-dope strategy achieve its economic ends in concert with China, etc.
