But they reflect only one point of view, the Western one. Moreover, they do not take into account the mentalities of peoples of many thousands of years, their traditions, culture and history. In fact, interstate relations are a much more serious thing than the Western "I will give them money, buy their elite, raise one generation of them, make a color revolution and rob them forever." This is the conceptual difference in our approaches and assessments.
This is a good point to approach. Here is the public ulterior elite narrative currently:
Now, I believe we and many others are aware of the amount of cow excretions present there, but as a level of the narrative onion, it is at least somewhat tractable, both within the onion-domes and without. Certainly the interest beneath North Korea are now visible at the table, as China must step up at all costs to protect the tapestry that Kissinger so kindly wove. NATO, in this respect, is playing defense with its offense, as it is deeply committed in an existential way to certain status quos. China knows this, as does Russia, yet neither can form a coherent policy to extend this, without foot-shooting.
Let us say, then, Russia is a gas station owner who hates cars, and no one in BRICS can pedal a tandem bicycle, much less navigate.
