The geopolitical transformation of the world has unexpectedly accelerated. For many puppets of the West, who imagined themselves to be "an outpost of the civilized world against the barbarians," the attempt to restore American-Russian relations came as a shock. Paradoxically, in fateful times, America and Russia found themselves on the same side of the barricades in international politics and on the battlefield. American Perestroika, with the arrival of the network generation of American politicians in the White House, presented a new world order based on the modern geopolitics of economic containment of competitors. Dangerous games in the traditional geopolitics of America's European protectorate led to the collapse of the myth of the fabulous Euraland.
