Geopolitics. How It Is Done

With the emergence of the word "geopolitics" in the lexicon, a revolution occurred in consciousness. Was it only Britain that consistently defended "eternal interests" or did all major players on the world stage have them? Has anything changed recently? What are Russia's traditional interests? Nikolai Starikov's book clearly and simply explains the essence of what is happening on the global chessboard. Using numerous historical examples, both well-known and little-known to the general public, the author shows how the principles of geopolitics are implemented in practice. A common vector of the winding paths of history is revealed, and the actions of statesmen that were considered inexplicable are filled with logic and meaning.
