Pepe Escobar Wrote A Superb Piece On Geopolitcs.

A very worthy excursion into the practical geopolitics. Excellent, highly recommended. 

Get ready for a major geopolitical chessboard rumble: from now on, every butterfly fluttering its wings and setting off a tornado directly connects to the battle between Eurasia integration and Western sanctions as foreign policy. It is the paradigm shift of China’s New Silk Roads versus America’s Our Way or the Highway. We used to be under the illusion that history had ended. How did it come to this?

I liked the part on Kissinger. I guess one cannot, indeed, teach the old dog new tricks.
