PUTIN'S GAMBIT
(Translated from Russian by: Ultra Russian Nationalist)
After the destruction of the "Evil Empire" "democratic regime" who was lead by the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Kozyrev was in a hurry to announce the so called Cold War, which starting in 1945 was calming down or restarting with a new force in between the western democratic countries and the
USSR, was over. Aforia from the era of the Russian American friendship/cooperation touched politicians, businessmen and govts. The majority of the Russian society truly believed that an unbreakable friendship between two powerful nations was only a communist ideological party shortage, of the democratic freedom and the aggressive foreign policy of the Soviet Union were to blame. Such an aforia of our country didn`t happen since 1940 when agreement in between Molotov-Ribbentrop started the beginning of the era of Soviet-German friendship.
That era didn`t last long.
And when at the beginning of the 90`s, the whole country looked at the USA as a big brother only professional spies from KGB were thinking that in this world all countries have not only political and ideological, but also national interests, which are virtually impossible to resolve.
And from the point of view of American national interest was, is, and always will be of the USA, which moves towards world domination based not only on national pride or political calculations and economical factor. Specifications of the financial system: Russia agreed to the previous amount of debt from the USSR. Russia agreed to reconsider the decisions of the Potsdam conference, (took all the short comings in withdrawal of huge group of army from Germany.) The pinnacle of new Russian - American relations was the policy of Kozyrev to stop Russian presence in the regions, which are having very important geo-political meaning. This policy proved itself, but not for the Russian federation but for Kozyrev personally, after his resignation received from Americans highly payment in an American company and he started a comfortable life, and until recently was unknown what the policy of the present representative of the American company in Russia was aimed at. (Un-professionalism and anti-govt. views.)
Russia supported the policy of the U.S. in regards to Saddam, who was paying the debts on time and purchased Russian equipment in huge quantities and during the Soviet expansion in Afghanistan started the war with Iran. He supported the annihilation of every last Afghani Mujihadeen, which with his support saved thousands of Russian lives and saved billions of rubles for the USSR. Democratic regimes that were established left his friends in Angola, as well as other Allies to die. At the time when the following gang(s): UNITA were occupying the city of Luanda, Russian quote unquote Democrats refused to supply ammunition according to treaties and contracts that were signed prior to the incident. As a result, a third of the population in Luanda was massacred. Luanda never forgot that incident. In order to show its support for American policy, Russia backed away from the Libyan armament market. Russia Breached contracts and gave an opportunity for Khaddafi to stop the pay off of the multi-billion dollar debt. The final note of the new foreign policy of Yeltsin`s regime was to be signed to be a member of the Paris club. It is important to mention this in regards to the first president (Boris Yeltsin), who would enter agreements anywhere, as long as he would be known and respected. He didn`t even know what the Paris club meant. He knew only that it was in Paris. And if it`s in Paris (he thought to himself), then he absolutely had to be a member.
The conditions of becoming a member of the club were interesting. Russia had to write off most of the debt of African countries and restructure the rest. To work on that operation with the debt agreements, which were being performed all over the world, they received truly African "taboo". In explaining the meaning of that maneuver, which was started by Russian ministry of international affairs that was under the supervision of Washington, but it wasn`t supported by the French: Africa is the richest warehouse of the world products of the 21st century. The one who will have the access to this “warehouse” will be living happily in the new century/era. Nowadays the strongest positions are taken by France, which is not working for American transnational corps. After forcing Russia to withdraw from that region, someone had to take its spot. The problem was how one was able to extract all the goods from Africa, African countries had to have proper equipment and financial investments. In agreement with the IMF and World Bank, investments in the countries of unregulated foreign debt are not recommended. There was only one solution, Russia had to be a part of the Paris club and put an end to the debt of the African countries. After that is done, American influence is moving to the black continent. Russian ministry of foreign affairs completed the task, gave the USA constant flow of goods in the 21st century by means of refusing from African debts, which was over 100 billion dollars. When Washington started the open military aggression against Yugoslavia, which didn`t agree alongside with Iraq against American dictatorship, no one looked at Russia for their opinion. It`s truly understood that Saddam, Milosevic, and Khaddafi are to blame. Not in breach of human rights, but maybe in not supporting the New world order under the presidency of “Uncle Sam”.
Being a smart analytical person in a Geo-political arena, president Putin realized where the traps were for the country he had to lead. He started to restore the internal system and supported the changes of the regime outside his country also. And well known political scientists came to the same conclusion, that Putin is in his professional thinking. Which none of the Soviet Russian leaders were. However, the true intentions and for going plans of the president is a mystery which even the closest presidential aid wouldn't know. That is the law of spying. No one never opened their plans especially methods of the realization. In regards to that, the system of KGB, what is practicing now a days helps us to come up with a couple of decisions. When Putin was smiling to Madeline Albright. he didn`t show such a strong devotion in development in future contacts with the USA. At the same time he traveled to Great Britain, Germany and France, which analytitions are openly proclaiming the danger of breaking the balance after the USSR fell. Many more European politicians support the thought that American and European national interests are different. And they don`t meet at any point. But the embryo of the European solidarity already evolved. Understanding of that process is shown in the policy of the Russian president. Putin also started the steps towards defrosting (getting closer and friendlier) relationships with the countries which in the past supported Soviet orientation, and due to that he freaked Americans out. The Ministry of Foreign affairs of Russia delivered a letter to Saddam. The meaning of the letter is still unknown. But the explanation by Ivanov of the position of Russia in regards to anti-Iraqi sanctions give the reasons to conclude that letter had vital info and not just formalities. Russia is going to start contacts with Libya, Angola, Cuba and Vietnam. Putin would discuss the debts, which can be strongly discounted for as well as if he provides armaments, which can be based on barter conditions.
That`s why it won`t be a surprise if Bill and Halmutt will trade places with new friends/allies. The interests lie in the possibilities of future Russian policies in Afghanistan. With the right rules of the game, special conditions will support opportunities in starting the contacts with Taliban and their realization and discovery towards their old anti-American stance. Countries that are bordering with the country of Afghanistan suggest that the Talibanese are not seeking conflicts with them. This statement was followed by consultations of the Russian president with the Afghans. And all those special conditions which Soviet spying school was so well known for when Putin was a part of it can help to resolve not only part of the international problems, but domestic problems as well. Lets say the best middleman in the question of the Chechen problem points at Taliban for a solution. Of course from the moral point of view it`s not the best, but according to the current situation,lets think about an old politician, his name was Julio Masserinni. That French minister stated: "My political tactics sometimes were not that honest, but they were never meaningless".
As a spy and analytic, Putin couldn`t see all the previous years that the policy of the American admin. towards Russia reminded more of Special plans which were led by CIA and its branches, govt. debts, and IMF. Putin noticed strange policy of IMF, which was playing a role of American policeman in the countries of the third world. That fund gave out to Russia huge credits during the privatization times in a form of a financial pyramid. (When the govt. received $100 dollar loan and returns back $300. In the Unites States, the government gets $100 and returns $105. The leaders of this fund definitely knew that those pyramids are paid by the money of the govt. under Chernomyrdin. When the govt. under Primakov suggested to use those IMF loans accordingly, all the loans stopped. So take a close examination, and see that the policy of the USA sometimes wasn`t honest but never was it meaningless. There are some reasons to think that at the current time we are watching a huge Chess tournament.
Putin Vs. Washington. Where the Russian player plays his game using American tactics. This maneuver wasn`t foreseen by the theorists and experts of the game, but the position of the Russian president is getting weaker due to the fact that previous govt. regime under Yeltsin still has a lot of pro-American leaders in the higher branches of govt.
