Putin of #Russia an “aggressor,” a departure from the friendly language that #Trump has used to describe #Putin. “I think Vladimir Putin is a an old-school communist,” Johnson said. “He’s not to be trusted, & he is dangerous.” He also said that #China, Russia, #Iran & #NorthKorea amount to “new Axis powers” & they “are not on America’s side.”

@chuckpfarrer CONNECTIONS: A cogent take from @randymot4 on Russia’ major export: terror. Having failed to create a 'multi-polar world', Putin appears to be settling for sowing multi-polar conflict. Serbia, Gaza, and Africa are examples. #geoplitics #fourthpoliticaltheory

Ditching the Dollar: The #BRICS collective, comprising #Brazil, #Russia, #India, #China and #SouthAfrica, is working on a common currency in an attempt to ditch the US dollar and push back against America’s dominance.
