Post Russia rising?
How do you people think Russia's remegerance as a world power will affect the rest of the world? I see it in both a poisitive and negative light. While Russia making competetive markets can only help the world econonmy, it is already opposing the old order upon former Soviet states. Georgia was crushed, Moldovia is kept in a state of fear, and Ukraine is looking like the next target. Thoughts?

Well, the US will take a ultimately have to make friends with them, as we'll have to make friends with China, India, and Brazil, as their nations are increasingly becoming more and more powerful. I think that we should make friends with them and then let them into our "club" where you make the rules, but do not necessicarily have to follow them.

Where have you been the last 20-35 years?

We made friends with all of them a LONG time ago. Russia we opened up solid relations with the fall of the Soviet Union. Best of friends? Maybe not, but we haven't been on bad terms by any means.

These aggressions actually would only serve to bring back the old tensions and turn us into enemies as we were in the past, rather than make us friends. It'll encourage our idea of "lets protect the world against the evil other forces"/ "stick up for the small peaceful countries" or whatever. At first we'll try to calm Russia down, sure, but soon enough if things don't go well it'll only escalate, as has happened many times in the past. Don't forget there are plenty still around, on both sides, that remember and grew up in the Cold War, and sometimes old wounds don't fully heal, but scab and scar.

Well, so far, it seems both sides have beeing trying to agrivate the other. First Kosovo, then South Ossetia/Georgia/Akbahzia and it's looking very likley next stop Ukraine.
