      By allowing Russia instead of the US to act in the Middle East, global peace is ensured through a multipolar system.

    • Unipolarity DA

      The US is doing everything it can to appease Russia.

      With Russia, the
      and
      ambassador to Russia.

      Acting in the Middle East will have Russia break connections with the US.

      Russian hostility to
      and
      Assad’s ongoing crackdown.

      A Russian-backed plan in the Middle East is a make-or-break deal for US-Russian relations.
