What does Vlad really want?

[MedusaX]

For just a minute let's presume that Vlad knows better than to put all of his eggs in one basket...
Or share his entire plan with any single individual....

Just like terror cells & assets involved in other large scale infiltration operations, it is rare for the members to be given information beyond that which is absolutely necessary to accomplish their given task.

This would mean that the small fish assets may truly believe that there is no large operation underway and have no idea that they are actually part of a whole school of assets whose independent acts are contributing to a larger operation.
Even if caught, an individual fish can't provide information he does not know.

45 has always referred to:
* wanting to make "good deals" with Vlad
* 4% growth
* Tariffs
* Bilateral agreements
* Renegotiate NAFTA
* Ditch allies unless they pay up
* Obsolete NATO
* Manufacturing & Mining industries
* Oil, oil, oil, and more oil
* De regulation of everything
* How much the sanctions have really hurt Russians (awwww)


Now consider the cabinet & 45's advisors & who he has met with...

* Wilbur Ross - Cyprus Bank ($)
* Tillerson - Exxon (oil)
* Flynn - Pro Putin (security/intelligence/military)
* Schwarzman - Blackstone ($)
* Carter Page - Pro Russia / oil & $
* Manafort - Russia/Ukraine politics
* Ivanka /Jared - Russia Social Scene & domestic real estate investment opportunities
* Bannon / Sessions/ Miller -- pre existing relationship built on common nationalist beliefs
* Jack Ma - Alibaba - global internet trade and new investment partner with Russian bank - Speaker at St. Petersburg International Economic Forum 2016


At the 2016 SPIEF, Putin gave a speech in which he stated the following:
" Common energy, oil and gas and financial markets will emerge by 2025."
"The Russia-led alliance of 'Great Eurasia' is set to become one of the centers of the new 'wide integration contour'."
" Flexible integration alliances will define the future of the world economy,”
"GDP growth in Russia should be at least 4% in the long term."
"There is a risk that the geopolitical tensions in the world may increase due to a depletion of natural resources."

A common market, one of four levels of economic integration, is one in which members agree to:
•trade freely amongst themselves
•apply same tariffs & trade policy with non-members
•no restrictions on immigration, capital investment, or technology sharing amongst members

Basically, Putin is looking to be at the center of one or more common Oil/Gas markets, in which goods,services, people, money, and technology can move freely from one member country to another....

Definitely requires more than just the lifting of sanctions...

1. Seems to me he wants his country's longest-running adversary to step aside.

So then he can rebuild Moscow's control of what we used to know as the "satellite countries". It's Putin who wants to build a wall - like the one we used to know as the "Iron Curtain."

Putin wants to Make Russia Great Again.

2. To Use U S Military to fight Russia's wars. n/t

I would see him wanting a ring of inner satellites and a ring of outer satellites with Russia situated at high center on the globe and pulling visible as well as invisible strings.

3. Destabilize America and the EU. Rid himself of NATO and the UN.

Dominate the oil industry, clamp down on protesting and ban the LGBT community from existing. Hmmm...gosh that looks JUST LIKE what the Republicans want.

Imagine that. They even have current bills going through Congress that mirror those ideas.

5. Loser and traitor

6. "Biggest traitor in modern history."

They can put it on a plaque and weld it to his golden toilet. I've never in my lifetime heard of Trump doing or saying anything nice or beneficial to the human race.

BUT this time, we are supposed to believe he finally saw the light and became a good guy.

Horseshit.

4. So Russia will emerge as the dominant country making USA a third world nation?

And chump, and the GOP are enabling this? Sounds kinds of traitorous and treasonous to me!

Why are the right wingers not screaming about this? I mean they are supposed to be patriots and love this country but have no problems, turning the country over to Russia?

[SticksnStones]

7. Why aren't the right wingers screaming about this?

Because they're really, really happy they won everything and now those darn democrats are ruining it for everybody!

8. I wonder what currency Putin expects his country's oil resources to be traded in.
