::::::::Putin is frustrated that the West, NATO, and the US keep pushing the Russian Federation into a costly arms race with technological upgrades. He'd rather work with the West countering radical Islamic terrorism and CCP adventurism.

:::::::::Putin may be "frustrated" with the West, but his base of popular support is firmly '''anti'''-West and pro-CCP. Many of his supporters would oppose him working with the West, because they see the West as a greater evil than the CCP.--[[User:Geopolitician|Geopolitician]] ([[User talk:Geopolitician|talk]]) 14:55, October 26, 2021 (EDT)

::::::::The ruse is over. Call it the post-post-Cold War period (or Cold War II). We no longer have to pretend Russia is the boogeyman so as not to alarm the CCP into a military buildup. The CIA, NATO, and [[WTO]] assessments were wrong - China has undergone a military build-up and began an arms race more than 20 years ago already. Our Sputnik moment has arrived.

<sidenote>Incidentally, we're beginning to see Milley's genius strategic thinking for the Afghan debacle. The US is overflying Pakistan (without permission) with drones to surveil and whatever Afghanistan. This obviously is a test of Chinese missile defense systems, in preparation for Biden's "pivot to Asia", i.e. defense of Taiwan.<end> [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|Free Kyle!]]</sup> 12:45, October 26, 2021 (EDT)
