I read the article thru, and other than increasing ... or trying to increase ... trade with Latin America, I don't see any "targeting" of anybody. And since the article itself points out that Russian trade with Latin America is very, very small, I don't see how it could be ramped up to anything significant in the near future.

The one exception is Brazil's dependence on Russia for 40% of its fertilizer. Nonetheless, LatAm is so tied into the dollar that they're more afraid of secondary sanctions.

A nothingburger propaganda piece.

Why don't you worry about America's out of control, year-after-year-after-year budget disasters before you go throwing stones, half-wit?

Trump will be fine.
He will also be your next President.

Indeed.

Russia has a debt of 15% of GDP. Ours is 120%.

THUGR, instead of getting all riled up if I don't slavishly repeat your government -approved, mindnumbing boosterism, you should be asking yourself is “Is SIGNY right?".

Start asking yourself that, instead of constantly dividing people into "my team" and "the enemy".

Bc, last I checked, we are both Americans and we both need this nation to succeed. So focus on our nation succeeding. It's a more productive way of thinking that gets solutions instead of creating problems.


And for chrissakes, stop hyper focusing on Russia. Even if Russia goes up in flames tomorrow - and that's not gonna hapoen- our problems will still be here the day after. And the day after that. Until we fix them.

The German government says there are no plans to invite Russia to return to the club of leading industrialized nations.

Russia was kicked out of the G-8 after its 2014 annexation of Ukraine's Crimea region and assistance for pro-Russian separatists in eastern Ukraine.
