Russia surrounds itself with nuclear neighbors

Russia Vows "Inevitable Response" Over "Illegal" North Korea Sanctions

The Russians fouled the nuclear environment with nuke and rocket technology throughout Asia.  Russians frigged this up for themselves.  Having supplied their southern invaders with nuke technology, the Russians then enter population decline.  So, they can vow all they want.

Chinese Commies have the same problem. China supported this nuclear mess in their own backyard, and got nothing out of it.  The entire south Asia, from Iran to Koreas, stuffed with nuclear weapons, courtesy of Russian and Chinese goofy foreign policy.
