    MANAGUA, NICARAGUA — Russia is rekindling its once-strong ties to Nicaragua, possibly including providing the Central American nation with jet fighters, stoking unease as far away as the Andes in South America.
    Later this week, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov will arrive in Nicaragua as part of a swing through four Latin American nations, the culmination to a series of high-level Russian visits to this Central American nation in the past year. Last month, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu paid a two-day visit, and in January the head of Russia’s upper house of Parliament arrived. Russian leader Vladimir Putin visited in June.

    The bipolar world is back. USA have so mush haters along the whole world and Russia tries to support them. It has always been like this. But nowadays USA risk to get to the cage and that would be a reasonable result of their own policy. 10156037_333212100209116_6914273182470159594_n.jpg

    Now we get to see if the Monroe Doctrine is truly dead like so many claim. I hear a lot of the right shouting how unacceptable this is while the left tries to play it as no big deal. It is and they know it.

    Russia is playing the U.S. game against the U.S.

    This might go down as, get out of our sphere of influence and will get out of yours.

    The gullible and naïve western world has finally figured out that Russia never changes and kicked it out of the civilized part of the humanity. Russia is back where it always belonged - with 3rd world sh$tholes, corrupt totalitarian dictatorships, theocracies.

    Putin is a Soviet, looking to restore his empire to it's prior strength. This should surprise no one. And Obama likes to watch these things happen.

    Let's see. Russia has previously supported or sold arms to Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela and Argentina.

    They have sought to establish economic ties to El Salvador, Bolivia and Ecuador. They have sold some arms to them, but their militaries are tiny and buy equipment from all over the world, including the United States.

    And all of this has done ... ZERO to affect U.S. national security.

    The U.S. is the 3rd-largest trade partner for Bolivia and Argentina; Russia isn't even on the radar.

    We are the largest trade partner of Venezuela, Nicaragua, Ecuador and El Salvador.

    Russia can try to do whatever it likes in South America -- it will not have much, if any, effect on U.S. influence in the region, or our national security.
