The True Ambition of Russian Foreign Policy

Mainstream Western analysts do not understand Russian foreign policy doctrine. This 15 minute video explains what the Putinists are really after and how America should craft its foreign policy toward the Russians from here on out.

13:30 I was following everything you said until the casual suggestion that arming Russian targets would close the open doors in Eastern Europe and the Mediterranean... I'm left wondering, based on my limited perspective on Putin's personality, why he would throw his hands up and pivot eastward on that note. I know this video is old so no need to reply, but I'd be interested if you're willing to elaborate on that point

I've never thought of these things the way you do (and I've been tfollowing Russia since the 80s). THIS is what we need!!! Gives me faith for our future (avoid nuke war at all costs!!) Thanks for this. Thank you. Thank you.

Your analysis on Russia was very good however, you did not mention much on the US interaction which I believe is key toward understanding Russian foreign policy. Russia and every nation they ally with all share one thing in common hatred of the US hegemony uni-polar global order. Russia will continue to pursue and strengthen alliances with the disenfranchised and also sow the seeds of discontent among others.
