Putin looks east to bolster ties with North Korea
TOKYO (AP) — Angry with the
West's response over Ukraine and eager to diversify its options, Russia
is moving rapidly to bolster ties with North Korea in a diplomatic
nose-thumbing that could complicate the U.S.-led effort to squeeze
Pyongyang into giving up its nuclear weapons program.
Russia's
proactive strategy in Asia, which also involves cozying up to China and
has been dubbed "Putin's Pivot," began years ago as Moscow's answer to
Washington's much-touted alliance-building and rebalancing of its
military forces in the Pacific. But it has gained a new sense of urgency
since the unrest in Ukraine — and Pyongyang is already getting a big
windfall with high-level political exchanges and promises from Russia of
trade and development projects.
Moscow's
overtures to North Korea reflect both a defensive distancing from the
EU and Washington because of their sanctions over Ukraine and a broader,
long-term effort by Russia to strengthen its hand in Asia by building
political alliances, expanding energy exports and developing Russian
regions in Siberia and the Far East.
For North Korea, the timing couldn't be better.
many ships war, nobody knows who shall win, military strategy is something that cannot be prove on a computer, is material, a nuclear bomb explodes only when that is a fact. militarily is irrelevant. any ICBM, can target something, for instance, the saudi kingdom, israel, a volcano, a nuclear plant in france for instance flamanville, that explodes half of france is gone and europe goes without electrical power, global blackout in europe. however once that happen, what is the purpose of the ships, fight against what! they are just survivors of the mess. this is a war against civilians, not military folks. a war against you..
ReplyDeletea war against civilians, syria,iraq,ukraine, libya, they are all civilians. millions of them, the rest is just a few. and a world war is civilians the ones that die, in larger quantities not policemen or military brass.
ReplyDeletehowever if putin is wise, he can prevent the destruction of america. Putin in fact has already won, he can sever itself from the west. the BRICS axe, is a fact. the one that suffers is europe. as europe is in the middle. anyhow the last war was in europe. however israel, now and them..
