MILPOL DIALECTICISM > besides playing wid EURO sensitivities over involvment in Afghani-Pakland, I SUSPECT THEY'RE ALSO NOW TRYING TO FRUSTRATE SSSSSHHHHHH RUSS-DESIRED, US-NATO/EU MIL PRESENCE IN CENTRAL ASIA, i.e. PDENIABLE US-NATO/EU DEFENSE OF ANTI-US-NATO/EU RUSS's BORDERS.

*RUSSIA > THE THIRD WORLD = DEVELOPING WORLD [Cold War US-Soviet Areas of International Confrontation/Conflict] IS NOW ON RUSSIA'S BORDERS, and nominally even O-T-B[Border] INSIDE RUSSIA VEE UNSTABLE MUSLIM-MAJORITY INTERN ENCLAVE(S).

NOT COUNTING NUCLEAR PAKISTAN, NUKE-AMBITIOUS IRAN, CENTASIAN FORMER SSRS [Iran-influenced], RUSS OWN POPUL TURNING MUSLIM BY 2050, and of course "LIVING SPACE" + SUPERPOWER-AMBITIOUS NUCLEAR CHINA [Islamist-troubled] + GENERAL ISLAMIST THREAT TO NORTH ASIA, SOUTH-SE ASIA, + PHILIPINES.
