Russia's ECONOMIC DRAWING CARD is the Commonwealth of Independent Nations. Its REAL ECONOMIC STATUS is "intentionally" undervalued by the West. And it's BIG GUN PARTNER is China. ALSO Latin America as a whole is turning more and more to Russia as an economic partner. Russia has shored up ENORMOUS GOODWILL among Muslim countries in the Middle East. The only thing that is SERIOUSLY LACKING is infrastructure and that will take time as it involves SERIOUS CAPITAL INVESTMENT. ONCE THAT IS IN PLACE Russia will overtake China as "THE" DOMINANT ECONOMIC POWER. It's just a matter of time. THE FUTURE BELONGS TO RUSSIA. :D Ken, Toronto, CANADA
