  • A bunch of my friends shared this link about the book which apparently has a significant influence in Russia.

    It's kind of similar to that thing where Simpsons predicted the future, except it's too real.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foundations_of_Geopolitics

    The United Kingdom, merely described as an "extraterritorial floating
    base of the U.S.", should be cut off from Europe

    Finland should be absorbed into Russia. Southern Finland will be
    combined with the Republic of Karelia and northern Finland will be
    "donated to Murmansk Oblast".[8]

    The book emphasizes that Russia must spread anti-Americanism
    everywhere: "the main 'scapegoat' will be precisely the U.S."

    In the United States:

    Russia should use its special services within the borders of the
    United States to fuel instability and separatism, for instance,
    provoke "Afro-American racists". Russia should "introduce geopolitical
    disorder into internal American activity, encouraging all kinds of
    separatism and ethnic, social and racial conflicts, actively
    supporting all dissident movements – extremist, racist, and sectarian
    groups, thus destabilizing internal political processes in the U.S. It
    would also make sense simultaneously to support isolationist
    tendencies in American politics".[8]
