Sept. 6—The oh-so-clever strategy to force Russia into a corner is in for a bruising — and the geopoliticians willing to starve populations and deploy neo-Nazi killers may want to wish they didn’t get out of bed on September 7. First, in Vladivostok, Russia, President Vladimir Putin will address the Seventh Eastern Economic Forum (EEF), with sixty nations deliberating the subject, “On the Path to a Multipolar World.” Putin’s spokesperson, Dmitry Peskov, announced that his speech will address the “huge global storm” that has started, and will cover the “very intense, thoughtful and consistent work” going on in Moscow to create the “macroeconomic stability” to survive the “huge global storm.” Russia’s “pivot to the East” is never more timely, and is dependent upon the marriage of the economies of Russia and Asia.
