Ukrainian-American Cooperation Against Russian Nord Stream 2

Jesus! These Ukrainian leaders are delusional. They haven't figured out that Ukraine is just a pawn in the bigger geopolitical game.
Ukraine, as we speak, is in the cold…no heating gas for many homes.

THIS IS THE REAL GEOPOLITICAL WORLD ORDER RUSSIA IS WORKING FOR ..

What is the Eurasia Union ? what is the Russki Mir (Russian world ) ? what was really the USSR ?

It is really all one thing it is about Russian / Moscow DOMINANCE over others !! it is the Russian world view that Moscow the center of the world and Russia the sole power of that world.

And this is what Russia is and has always being working for ever since Petter the Great .. Putin's political system (Putinism) and the dream of the Eurasian Union is just another metamorphoses of that goal of the Russian Mir; and Aleksandr Dugins book The Foundations of Geopolitics is the Putins road map to the goal.

Lets take a small look at the book by Aleksandr Dugin ..

The Foundations of Geopolitics: The Geopolitical Future of Russia is a geopolitical book by Aleksandr Dugin.

The book calls for the annexation of Ukraine, which seems a likely goal after the annexation of Crimea and aggressive policy toward the rest of Ukraine.

Dugin writes that the UK should be separated from the rest of Europe, like some sort of British exit, or "Exbrit," as I like to call it. As it turns out, Kremlin-controlled media pushed for the Brexit. Members of UK's parliament suspect Russian meddling in the Brexit referendum, although no evidence or investigation has yet come about.

Dugin is a well known Russian fascist and nationalist who has developed a close relationship with Russia's Academy of the General Staff

Dugins book and doctrine is being used as a textbook in the Academy of the General Staff of the Russian military and the Russian military academy.

Dugin credits General Nikolai Klokotov of the Academy of the General Staff as co-author and main inspiration.

In Foundations of Geopolitics, Dugin calls for the influence of the United States and Atlanticism to lose its influence in Eurasia and for Russia to rebuild its influence through annexations and alliances.

The book declares that "the battle for the world rule of [ethnic] Russians" has not ended and Russia (Russky Mir) remains "the staging area of a new anti-bourgeois, anti-American revolution". The Eurasian Empire will be constructed "on the fundamental principle of the common enemy.

The textbook believes in a sophisticated program of subversion, destabilization, and disinformation spearheaded by the Russian special services. The operations should be assisted by a tough, hard-headed utilization of Russia's gas, oil, and natural resources to bully and pressure other countries.

USA

The book emphasizes that Russia must spread Anti-Americanism everywhere: "the main 'scapegoat' will be precisely the U.S."

In the United States:

Russia should use its special services within the borders of the United States to fuel instability and separatism, for instance, provoke "Afro-American racists". Russia should "introduce geopolitical disorder into internal American activity, encouraging all kinds of separatism and ethnic, social and racial conflicts, actively supporting all dissident movements – extremist, racist, and sectarian groups, thus destabilizing internal political processes in the U.S. It would also make sense simultaneously to support isolationist tendencies in American politics

Europe

The book states that "the maximum task [of the future] is the 'Finlandization' of all of Europe.

Germany
Germany should be offered the de facto political dominance over most Protestant and Catholic states located within Central and Eastern Europe. Kaliningrad oblast could be given back to Germany. The book uses the term "Moscow–Berlin axis"

France
France should be encouraged to form a "Franco–German bloc" with Germany. Both countries have a "firm anti-Atlanticist tradition".

The United Kingdom
The United Kingdom should be cut off from Europe. (Brexit anyone )

Finland

Finland should be absorbed into Russia. Southern Finland will be combined with the Republic of Karelia and northern Finland will be "donated to Murmansk Oblast".

Estonia
Estonia should be given to Germany's sphere of influence.

Latvia and Lithuania

Latvia and Lithuania should be given a "special status" in the Eurasian-Russian sphere.

Poland
Poland should be granted a "special status" in the Eurasian sphere.

Romania, Macedonia, "Serbian Bosnia" and Greece

Romania, Macedonia, "Serbian Bosnia" and Greece – "Orthodox collectivist East" – will unite with "Moscow the Third Rome" and reject the "rational-individualistic West".

Ukraine

Ukraine should be annexed by Russia because "Ukraine without resolving the Ukrainian problem, it is in general senseless to speak about continental politics".

Ukraine should not be allowed to remain independent, unless it is cordon sanitaire, which would be inadmissible.

In the Middle East and Central Asia:

Russia and Islam

The book stresses the "continental Russian–Islamic alliance" which lies "at the foundation of anti-Atlanticist strategy". The alliance is based on the "traditional character of Russian and Islamic civilization".

Iran
Iran is a key ally. The book uses the term "Moscow–Tehran axis".

Armenia

Armenia has a special role: It will serve as a "strategic base," and it is necessary to create "the [subsidiary] axis Moscow-Erevan-Teheran". Armenians "are an Aryan people … [like] the Iranians and the Kurds".

Azerbaijan

Azerbaijan could be "split up" or given to Iran.

Georgia

Georgia should be dismembered.

Abkhazia and "United Ossetia" (which includes Georgia's South Ossetia) will be incorporated into Russia. Georgia's independent policies are unacceptable.

Turkey.
Russia needs to create "geopolitical shocks" within Turkey. These can be achieved by employing Kurds, Armenians and other minorities.

The book regards the Caucasus as a Russian territory, including "the eastern and northern shores of the Caspian (the territories of Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan)" and Central Asia (mentioning Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan).

Question: why does Russia have to transit their gas through Ukraine?

But why ?

USA has only one interest:

IT IS IMPERATIVE
that no EurasiaN challenger emerges capable of dominating EurasiA and thus of also challenging America
