  • the gathering of BRICS and other countries this week spotlights a growing convergence of nations who hope to see a shift in the global balance of power and – in the case of some, like Moscow, Beijing and Tehran – directly counter the United States-led West.

    Tacit admission the two are one and the same. To shift the global balance of power the United States-led West must be countered.

    But despite Russia’s sweeping rhetoric, the leaders meeting in Kazan have a wide range of viewpoints and interests – a reality of BRICS that observers say limits their ability to send a unified message – especially the kind Putin may desire

    Democracy? That's actually a bad thing, sweetie.

  • If Trump wins, he'll be even less isolated AND he'll get to keep Ukraine to boot.

    • I mean Russia is going to win in Ukraine regardless which kleptocrat gets in power in US.

      • Wrong. Russia already lost. It's just a matter of how many more people have to die.

        Not only have they failed to keep NATO from expanding onto their borders, but they are now China's bitch.

        Goodbye tripolar world where Russia has a say.

        Goodbye any fear Europe had of Russia. They can't defeat Poland much less all of NATO.

        Putin failed spectacularly and the only ones who won't admit it are the Kremlin or Republicans.
