Even in the current political situation the United States and Russia remain close in many areas, for this reason, the Western world must learn to understand the Russian Federation, writes political journalist and columnist Jonathan Power. Among countries is cooperation in the space sector, mainly on the international space station. The United States periodically take Russian rockets to launch their crews to the station and for launching satellites, and Russia sells advanced rocket engines in the United States. Russia allows to carry military supplies to Afghanistan through its territory on the Russian trains, in addition to this, the Federation hand in hand with the United States successfully detonated the accumulation of weapons of mass destruction in the Syrian Arab Republic ". The United States and Russia are cooperating in the field of intelligence and in opposition to the Muslim militants, including the extremist crowd Islamic state." The Russian Federation and the United States side by side carry deal with Iran in the nuclear industry " - in the UN security Council of the Russian Federation and the United States together voted for the resolution on approval of the contract, and the American leader Barack Obama himself had called Putin to congratulate him, the journalist writes. "The Western capitals need to understand that they are not always understood the Russian Federation and Putin is right," the journalist writes. American employees of the foreign Ministry is currently already recognize that the statements of the Russian Federation about the destructive neo-fascism in Ukraine true." When the Russian, French and German Ministers of foreign Affairs with the consent of the Ukrainian opposition have reached agreement that Yanukovych will hold early elections in the coming year, the West forgot about It after a few days, and the protesters of the Maidan overthrew Yanukovych. Washington and other Western capitals supported a democratic revolution, and not demanded the execution of the contract. No wonder, because It's pissed off Putin ", - the journalist writes. the journalist emphasizes that the differences Between Russia and the West are due to incorrect perception of the Western leaders of Russia's actions. For example, in 2008, the West was subjected to charges of the Russian Federation in the initiation of the Ossetian-Georgian war, but in reality, the war began after Georgia started bombing South Ossetia, says the Creator. In 2011, Russia abstained from a UN security Council decision on the use of air force against the regime of Muammar Gaddafi, to protect Libyan citizens from death. However, the Western powers went far beyond its mandate, which led to the present chaos in Libya." All This shows once again the utter futility in the expansion of NATO in the sphere of influence of Russia (It is a violation of the agreement with the Russian Federation of the contract). This is undermining Western security, " says a senior lawyer at the Center for strategic and international studies of the US capital Gordan Hahn. for this reason, it is not Surprising that Putin has huge support in his confrontation with the West, emphasizes the Creator of the article." Russia responds to policies and actions of Western leaders. 1st move on the chess Board always belongs to the West, " concludes the analyst.
