[Russia setting up base in Sudan:]
Thanks for that. I’ll check it out.
Thanks, I couldn’t get that one to load here, but I think I found a copy on a different website. I’d be surprised if the Russians build a base in Sudan, but if they did, the main reason would be to support interdiction against the Somalian pirates. Having the Russians *and* Iranians (already in Eritrea) overlooking the most important sealanes in the world won’t help anyone sleep better, particularly in the Gulf States. Building a second major route overland from Aqaba to the Med won’t help, short of building enough pipeline capacity across the landscape to obviate the need for tankers to enter the Red.
