Reading what Lavrov, a truly gifted and honorable diplomat, as far as I can tell and have seen, has said and pursued, it really is amazing to consider, as a Westerner and American (not living in the US anymore), that if we are honest w/ourselves in our assessment of our own country, America has now become the "Land of the Oppressed and the Home of the Bully" ... to "update" what once was a meaningful and more-or-less true national anthem.

As Pogo said so many years ago now, "We have met the enemy, and he is US" ... or should that be "U.S." ... ? And at the same time, I find myself more and more somewhere inside rooting for Russia over the "United NeoconZionist Socialist Republic of America."

But I never stop praying and hoping that the U.S. can be restored and become even better than before.

There's a solution to the Outlaw US Empire's situation, but it's very radical as in revolt and complete alteration of the political-economy plus the writing off almost all debt. That's the jist.

Thanks Karl for posting this- this is a very important meeting, the statements, as far as I know, go beyond all those previously announced - to be re read at more leisure

Russia/China relations have been very steady and almost predictable since the 4 February 2022 Joint Declaration, particularly the goals they set. IMO, there's a need for a more basic series of goals. We shall see what gets produced after the SCO Summit in June, which isn't very far away.
