RE: Why is russia poking around the antartica again?
It's geopolitics. Sea trade is the cheapest and most efficient way to make money on global markets. US dominates on sea as Britain in the past. China taking over main trade routes which is South China Sea. Russia must established sea trade routes in the north where there is ice bound sea, needs powerful icebreakers to do that, otherwise will be cut off from cheap trade.Being limited by still dominant US cannot use regular trade routes. That's why Arctic. US plays Russia to come to alliance with US because they know that without Russia war with China cannot be won.And it's coming, as no superpower willingly gave up dominance ever in the past. In essence, it's not about Russia, it's about China and trade wars.
yeah true, cool hmmm crazy time to be alive! dont want to bug you but what an interesting alliance is north korea and russia though.. China is scary man.. seriously.. I have been to Taiwan traveling and that was close enough for me ..
There is no alliance as such between North Korea and Russia i guess. China will sort North Korea ( according to Clif High ) if the things get hot, as supposedly US is not allowed by China to intervene, they would rather do it themselves than have US on a doorstep. We shall see. Yes, interesting times :)
yeah I heard a long time ago there was north koreans in russia working in the forest or somthing.. vice did a little video on it. China wont do anything that doesnt make them money IMO but we will see
