Essentially

Russia helped Morales cheat.

Rosatom agreed to build a nuke plant in Bolivia.

All of this was so Rosatom could mine the massive Bolivian lithium deposits.

Russia’s Putin and China’s Xi have been all over South American countries like flies to honey. This week they both were there for their ‘Brics Summit’...

There is a really good zerohedge article about this but the powers that be cant deal with the nutbags in the ZH comments section. I wish they would allow some ZH stuff since it is often prescient. In this case it mirrors what you are saying.

Makes sense they would help the pinkos, which is why it never made sense the allegation they would help Trump instead of PIAPS

Actually I was watching Putins speech last night and other info on Brics etc. I generally keep on eye n who Putin is seeing when he’s on the move.....same with Xi.

They’ve both been on the move world wide ever since Obama pushed Putin out of the G-8 and his huge blunder on his so called Asian Pivot. Which was a joke, I laughed so hard when he sent michelle to China as his place holder when he was so late recognizing or even seeing his actions would create these events, and when it was clear he sends Vichelle...lololol

Obama is absolutely responsible for Russia and China teaming up as they did then......and we see it playing out since.

Well...when it comes to Putin and Xi I generally find very little if anything about what they’re doing on the world stage in our news sources..... So I do view news sites from over seas just to check the pulse. If something is attention worthy I generally go to other overseas site to see if ligit and get a whole picture.

Zero Hedge is ok but you have to be cautious....gleen what you can but always verify with those guys.

I fully realize ZH is questionable and needs verification but for the last cpl of months they were way ahead of the curve on a lot of stuff.

It is almost like we need a questionable sources category. ZH, Debka, RT etc. Sometimes nutty as a fruit cake and have questionable politics but sometimes way ahead of the curve.

I lost my race to be my high school class president due to Russian meddling.

Or perhaps it was Ukrainian meddling.

I actually enjoy Crosstalk....they actually have less drama then most talk shows and usually have interesting guests, often from both sides of the ocean. If you have an overview of world events you get they’re take even when you don’t agree with them. They know how to disagree without the drama entertainment factor as much as is here.

Heh... I sometimes watch CGTN to see where their thoughts/propaganda is to understand the world better.

I watch newscasts from around the world pretty regularly. English of course and 2 other languages I speak.

It helps with perspective.
