Since the reinstallation of the present U.S. administration less than 14 months ago, fentanyl and other drug traffic, much of it originating in China, into the United States has been drastically reduced. The entry of undocumented immigrants and particularly violent criminals (of whom hundreds of thousands were admitted in the previous four years), has nearly stopped. The Russo-Chinese allies: Syria, Venezuela, Iran and imminently Cuba, have all abruptly ceased to be practising allies of Moscow and Beijing. Russia is an important nationality that ultimately belongs in the West, but it has no chance to rival the United States again. But after the end of the Cold War, enemies of the West devised techniques of terrorism and guerrilla war by proxy to avoid direct retribution.
