    QUOTE:

    Russia's diplomatic victories continue to pile up. And each one And after that-Latin America. Russia's economy may be suffering, though it is still far better than it was in 2000, but the pain is short term. With Iran and Turkey on board the Eurasian project becomes almost unstoppable. Only India is left which is why the US and Israel are pulling out all the stops to show Modi how much they approve of his increasingly manic, and mystical, Hindu nationalism.
    Any experts in the history of diplomacy care to correct the assessment that not since Cavour and Bismark have we seen the like of what Putin has achieved in the past three years?

    "I don't believe Syria will ever be the same state it was before the empire fomented the "civil war"." You are right, there, Ben@13, Syria will now be the strongest power in Arabia.

    Correction to the above:
    " ...And each one leads to another. Korea and the Gulf are the next obvious candidates for Russian brokered agreements.And after that-Latin America."
