Yup. With money or missiles.
Apparently Japan imee much greater economic independence, unlike France, which is even willing to compromise the integrity of the French business and cause to reflect deeply on the major contracts with that unfortunate country. Incidentally, this is the American taxpayers will be to compensate this if you do not know.
This whole mess happening in the world only because the United States is the monopolist concentration of global capital. It's not fair. US should transfer part of the US banking sector in other countries, to evenly distribute the centers of concentration of capital in the world. Because monopoly to anything good has not resulted. And already see the results of the US monopolies. For example, Europe has completely lost its financial independence and accordingly the right to vote in the international arena. Every beggar on the porch knows that the governments of Europe and the UN they do not express their opinions, and the opinion of the United States. Is that correct?
I'm shocked that the dependence of the European Union on the United States has reached such an extent that they support the US and make economic sanctions against Russia, even if these actions are huge moral and economic damage to the European Union itself.

In fact, the British have a much more radical stance towards Russian. Moreover, for some unknown reason.
If Americans are simply a victim of anti-Russian propaganda, the British are experiencing constant and deep hatred for Russia. Perhaps this is because in these hamsters stuck inferiority complex after the collapse of the British Empire. Russian people are much simpler - they will treat you the same way as you treat Russian.. Without any complexes
Our capitalists aren't exactly happy about those low oil prices either, and you know oil prices are definitely affecting Russia's economy very negatively.

Nah, it couldn't have anything to do with Russia flat-out conquering part of a sovereign European state, could it?

I am amazed at the ignorance and arrogance of the Americans. That is, if the United States annexed Texas from Mexico (or Estados Unidos Mexicanos, if so it will be easier to understand), then everything is fine. And when Russia regained its historical territory in the Crimea, is you have appalled? Do not you think, messrs Americans that you had long since passed all the facets of what is permitted?
Perhaps if you'd studied your history better, you'd know that Texas rebelled against Mexican rule independently (albeit at the hands of mostly former US citizens), formed an independent nation, and then voted to join the United States on its own. More to the point, in the post-imperial 21st century, how can anyone sit there with a straight face and attempt to justify a heavy-fisted land-grab? As much of a massive clusterfuck as the Iraq invasion was, at the very least, we didn't go in with pretenses of turning it into our 51st state.
