“Try and draw an overseas route on this map, which is current as of October 11th, 2018, to get Spice Oil out of the Arab world and into Russia or China, without passing within obliteration-distance of a publicly-known U.S. Carrier Strike Group or Pearl Harbor. Seriously. “
Russia’s economy is built on the exporting of oil as was the case in 2018. This was a pretty jarring example of an essay that flowed pretty well up to this point.
“Excuse my awesome MS paint skills. All the Oil in the world is buried on the shores labeled “Persian Gulf”. Red border = Russian border, black arrow is over Russian land and points towards the shortest route to get the Spice to Moscow”
Moscow doesn’t need the spice! This way of viewing Russian excursions is fundamentally wrong.
