Not so sure Viet Nam would welcome Russians back.
Their troops had no money to spend.

The AP ignored the Chinese threat in the Regions, Its unopposed invasion of South China Sea Islands and Chinese oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico.

Thanks obama!

You two f@&%!×+ retards have managed to re-ignite the cold war with russia.

Wherever you may go in this world, I hope that the russians have an ICBM with YOUR name on it!

[Sacajaweau]

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

[dowcaet]

[VanDeKoik]

Hillary as president would be better than Carter for them.

[Olog-hai]

The prince of this world, AKA the prince of the power of the air, knows how to stir things up.

[Chode]

i think Vietnam might have something to say about that...

[dowcaet]

For all her accusations about Trump’s supposed association with Russia we know about her uranium deal with them, and you can bet the ranch she’s on the hook to one or several Russian billionaires who gave money to the Clinton Slush Fund and Foundation.

The US looks to be supporting the Vietnam version.
