Project "ZZ". Seventy percent of the inflatable doll
New Year's geopolitics revolves around Trump and Putin. On New Year's Day, even the figure of old G. Kissinger flashed "at the top": as experts say, he tries to "please" Mr. Trump, since he is "Putin's friend." Putin and Trump seem to have intertwined so that they are no longer divided. Obama, meanwhile, is compared with an inflatable doll, from which the air comes out.
American news of the day: Donald Trump set out to repeal about seventy percent of the decrees imposed by Barack Obama’s decisions. Almost all the legacy of the previous president goes to the cat's tail. The news is amazing: if it really happens, Trump will be for the United States a person like the one we know by the name of Mikhail Gorbachev. With what sign will be the restructuring of Trump for the United States, with a plus or a minus, while you can not judge.
About the upcoming abolition of approximately 70% of Obama’s decrees told Newt Gingrich, the former Speaker of the House of Representatives and a member of Mr. Trump’s transition team. He stated this in an interview with the TV channel Fox News.
B. H. Obama’s activity as president was described by the former Speaker of the House of Representatives as the “madness” of a desperate politician. The legacy of the first black president should be compared with an inflatable doll, from which it is easy to release air. It is necessary to open the valve, as this doll will begin to cringe. She is shrinking "more and more," Gingrich noted with irony. Obama in recent weeks, he called the "desperate madman."
According to a member of the Trump team, the bulk of Obama's legacy "will be rejected by Trump."
Gingrich also noted that Obama "created a number of things to distract Trump." He did this not alone, but with American allies. And now Trump will have to “work with Republicans” to end this Obama activity.
Speaking in the Fox News Sunday program, Gingrich noted that Obama’s legacy would have been preserved for a much longer period if the president conducted other reformist laws, enlisting the support of both parties. For example, he could have listened to Republicans about his medical law.
On the other hand, Gingrich said nothing about how the Trump administration plans to repeal all these laws or a significant part of them.
While in the US, members of the Trump team are planning to “destroy” 70% of Obama’s legacy, which dared to declare a cold war to Moscow, Henry Kissinger himself “pleased” the elected president.
N. Tusi and A. Arnsdorf in "Politico" expressed the following opinion: Mr Kissinger’s “old friend” of Putin is trying to please Trump.
The authors recall that Putin, the current “autocratic president”, while climbing the Kremlin’s career steps at the time of political youth, maintained a warm relationship with Mr. Kissinger. It was Kissinger who regularly met with Putin. And here he is on a par with the famous film actor S. Seagal and the head of ExxonMobil R. Tillerson (Putin’s fan will probably take over as US Secretary of State in 2017 in the year).
Today, Trump announces the establishment of cooperation with Russia. An old but vigorous Kissinger (93 of the year) is right there. He took on the noble mission of the mediator: meets with Trump (in private), and also flatters him in public. Mr. Kissinger indignantly rejects all attempts by the current White House administration and intelligence agencies to accuse Moscow of influencing the elections in the United States. And they do not seem to deny the hacker attacks themselves. On the other hand, what could the Russians achieve with such attacks?
There are experts who marvel at the Kissinger line. Like, what does this intellectual have in common, this intelligent man and an experienced former diplomat with a straightforward Trump? And there is nothing surprising: for a long career, Kissinger had to find a common language with the powers that be, among whom were kings and presidents. And no one else, like Trump, can play the role of the figure that Kissinger had long been hoping for, who planned to bring together former rivals in the Cold War - Russia and the United States.
The publication reminds that Kissinger - the architect of the policy of detente 1970's. In his opinion, the improvement of relations between the United States and Russia will contribute to the strengthening of world stability.
The former diplomat has opponents. They notice that the United States and the Russian Federation have different values. In addition, the policies that Kissinger aimed at will encourage the unacceptable line of the Kremlin. The aforementioned “interference” of Russia in the elections in the USA, the “invasion” of Ukraine, the support of the “dictator” Assad in Syria are listed.
Some people notice that G. Kissinger decided to simply promote his business through Trump: the interests of the consulting company Kissinger Associates. Hence the "diplomatic offensive."
Objective experts believe that Kissinger is “advancing” for the sake of balance in the world, while talking about “human rights” remains for him to talk. “I believe that Kissinger is preparing a diplomatic offensive,” said M. van Herpen, a Dutch specialist in Russia (by the way, not a supporter, but Putin’s opponent). “He is a realist, and the most important thing for him is maintaining a global equilibrium, not talking about human rights or democracy.”
Trump's aides did not comment on the relationship between the president-elect and Kissinger. Nevertheless, the authors managed to learn from “some sources” that the billionaire “admires Kissinger”. It is also known that Trump spoke with Kissinger many times. And in historical November 8 (election) day, they also had a personal meeting.
As for Kissinger, he also speaks with admiration of the phenomenon of Donald Trump.
Finally, Kissinger's friends maintain relationships with those who revolve in D. Trump’s orbit. One of Kissinger's assistants, Thomas Graham, may well get an appointment as the US ambassador to Russia. This edition also said "source."
Known and high appreciation of Kissinger for the post of US Secretary of State - the head of "ExxonMobil" Tillerson. Kissinger is not at all worried about Tillerson’s close relationship with the Kremlin.
Kissinger Associates, recalls not without irony, is owned by the US-Russia Business Council. This is a trading group that includes JPMorgan Chase, Pfizer and, of course, ExxonMobil.
In the 2016 February speech, Mr. Kissinger clearly outlined his views on Russian-American relations, stating that Russia should be perceived as “an integral element of any new global balance, and not as a threat to the United States.” As for Ukraine, Mr. Kissinger said that there is no need to invite her to Western organizations. It can become part of the architecture of European and global security, playing the role of a “bridge between Russia and the West,” rather than serving as a “pillar of one of the parties.” Well, in Syria, Kissinger offered to cooperate with Russia.
Dots over "i" The former diplomat put in a recent interview with the CBS News channel (December 2016). Kissinger made it clear that he respects both Trump and Putin. Mr. Trump has every chance to go down in history as a “worthy president.” Putin seems to him to be “the hero of Dostoevsky’s novels,” a man who feels a connection “with Russian history”. The Kremlin has such a Kissinger look.
Such a historic twist is being prepared by Trump and Kissinger.
But this month the world recalls that the USSR collapsed twenty-five years ago. The cold war is over. “Moscow lost, Washington won,” writes Julia Joffe in "Foreign Policy". At that time, Western democracy seemed like a paradise on earth. The free market, human rights are the best, the most stable, the most moral. And the new Yeltsin government began to govern Russia "in the new manner." Bottom line: They laughed at Russia and its president, considered Russian men to be bullies, and women to be mail-order brides. Russia was called “Upper Volta with rockets”, “Nigeria in the snow” (a famous statement by the emigrant Sergey Brin, co-founder of Google) and even “China’s gas station”.
In the third term of V. Putin in Russia, it became clear: the idea of democracy in the country was defeated. It turned out that the system of power borrowed abroad does not suit the traditions of Russia. In addition, Russia historically "to the greatness, unity and humility of the individual strong, centralized state."
Result: by December 2016, 25 years after the collapse of the USSR, that is, after the defeat in the Cold War, Putin won. He went to this final for a long time, but he reached it. And Trump's coming to power in the United States is also associated with the growing influence of Putin, and maybe even with the Kremlin "operation." At least, such a “operation”, if only it was, proves the present strength of Russia, capable of “shaking the most important elections in the most important country”. “25 years ago ... the Soviet Union lost the Cold War. And after 25 years, Russia has revised the terms of the surrender, ”sums up Ioffe.
Today, when the Obama doll is “blown away”, when the Trump team threatens to throw seventy percent of its legacy into the dustbin, global stability is the most important issue for Russia. Will Washington cooperate with Moscow in Syria? Will Trump throw Obama's decrees on anti-Russian sanctions? Will the Russophobes howl that, under Obama, come from all the major “mouthpieces of democracy" and generously paid by the State Department? Will Kissinger succeed in carrying out his ideas about global equilibrium - or will the White House continue the policy of dividing terrorists into “bad” and “good”? Will it become clear to the American rulers that it is possible to defeat evil in the form of terrorism only together, not sharing in a “coalition”?
Let's hope for the best in the coming year.
