Na Vostok?

Is it a retolica to set up quotes that would not have a special appeal, or is it the starting point for a genuine return of geopolitical magic, which can affect the future of the world? Or, as has happened many other times, something that wants to be the second but will remain the first?

The truth is that in the Far East, with the excuse of Kim Jong-un's visit, but not only that, at the gates of the many days that follow, he launched the V. Putin: economic development in the Far East is an absolute priority for today’s Russia. The message has been largely ignored in the confusion with the other statements he made at that same Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok, especially the war in Ukraine. And in line with others that I had already done, the intensity of the underline without other great novelties.

In addition, the intention is not recent, shaver. It can be said that it has been the real destination of Russia’s Siberian expansion. But on the other continent Go West, young man! & '97; Though he split in parallel with him, Na Vostok! This has achieved only a few cities that have been created from time to time on the sides of the Transiberian Railway and have grown in the temperate extractive economy. So Primorski and Khabarovsk are not California.

The causes are obvious: climatic, demographic, economic, political... And they're not the ones that change arbitrarily.

But it is also true that the 21st century is neither the 19th nor the 20th. The global economic axis left the Atlantic to the Pacific some time ago and Europe is no longer the centre of decision for the politico-military vicissitudes of the world. Nor must it be said that the Arctic thaw will alter the means of maritime transport.

The fact that Russia wants to move its centre of gravity to the Far East therefore has total consistency. As when in his day Pedro the Grande took the capital to the mouth of the Neva River. Na Vostok is a project that also has a great influence among geostrategists and similar so abundant in today’s Russia! Go east! That is linked to Eurasianism.

But we must not forget that there are facts more factual than strategies of the room of some heads. One of them is the cosmodrome Vostotxni that Putin has visited these days with Kim. Naturally, what must replace the historic infrastructure of Baiconour will not be planned, even for its duration.

And that is 100 kilometers from the border with China also means something, I think.
