It's unforunate that when the US had tried to stay out of the fight in the
first half of the 20th century, the US would get pulled in. During the Cold
War it wass soviet expansion into Eastern and posible Western Europe, aand
the domino principle in southeast Asia. Now that Russia has not been proving
to be a good ally, we're now seeing destabilization btween Azerbijan and
Armenia, and Dagistan and whoever their neighbor is. These countries are
technically allies, but without Russia's might to play the bully, theythey
are no longer trusting their neighbors on their borders.
