The analytical magazine Bloomberg Business wrote today that NATO, instead of confronting the real threat, is developing a conflict with Russia. The administration of the President of the United States is developing a new plan for the reorganization of NATO, in order to adapt the organization to the current geopolitical conditions, but in fact the threat from the Russian side does not exist, and all the efforts are to expand American influence in the Baltic region, which is in close proximity to the Russian Federation.
Of course, the Moscow authorities cannot allow a threat on their borders, and as has been proven by the leadership of Russia, it will be able to find a way to confront any military threat. However, even this does not stop the United States. Why is that? The fact is that in recent years the credibility of America in the world arena, despite intervention in the internal affairs of many countries, is weakening. But America cannot let that happen, so continues its expansion in the Baltic countries.
In fact, Russia is the only country which openly opposes the United States, recognizing the foreign policy of the state as not only absurd, but also dangerous. Because of Obama's ambitious plans, the world is bipolar, which is unfavorable for the international community as a whole, which in addition to the regional problems it is necessary to deal with the threat of extremism and terrorism.
The media portal Voice of America wrote today about the situation around the Iranian nuclear program on the eve of the expiration of the signing of the agreement. More than two years of negotiations, international economic sanctions against IIR can all be over next Tuesday, provided that the parties agree. According to analysts, the further extension of the negotiation is impossible, because such a delay does not bring tangible benefits.
The Iranian position is quite tough in relation to other member countries of negotiations. The Supreme Leader of the Republic insists that the sanctions must be lifted before the IAEA will have access to the Iranian nuclear facilities, while the US government continues to insist that the Iranian nuclear program be completely redirected.
Most likely, the US will have to make concessions and accept Iran's demands so as not to lose its positions in the Middle East. The stakes on Iran are quite high, and if one can control such a powerful country as the Republic of Iran, the entire Middle East region would be an ally of the United States. This scenario is possible, but it is not clear that Iran chooses it. The prospect of the lifting of sanctions is very tempting, but in recent years the Iranian economy managed to overcome economic difficulties and to expand its influence in the region.
It is not clear what to expect on the coming Tuesday, but it is clear that all the parties are serious about solving the existing problem, however there has been no solution.
