Russia is a master of surprize, chess players who look ahead several moves. It is clear that the US empire wants to dominate through military force. Their dependence on overwhelming force has resulted in many conflicts but few victories. Any potential adversary of the American empire understands the need to build their military infrastruces deep underground. The alliance between China and Russia is most natural and expedient. The West will try to pick off one victim at a time, with a view to capture sufficient resources to prevent the coming economic collapse. Time is running out on them. Desperate people and countries make serious mistakes. With all their hardware and firepower-it has been a long time since they prevailed in any war. The odds of future success are growing smaller by the minute. Their major miscalculation is that their allies politicians can lead their skeptical people. Can be depended on to provide troops and support. Punishing the citizens of Europe and Asia only weakens their alliances.

I don't know if anyone has caught this yet but the ship in the photo is actually the Slava class cruiser Varyag (Varangian). Currently attached to the Russian Pacific Fleet. The P-500 launchers are a dead give-away. I'm surprised a Russian website let that one slip by. I've said it before and I'll say it again. RT needs better editorial staff. Desperately.
This is not the first time. Their piece on the Russian fleet in the Arctic was illustrated with the picture of an USCGC. When I mentioned this, my post was quickly deleted. Not only it demonstrates sloppy editorial work, but also that they expect their audience to be ignorant.
