No assumption, again: the minimum any national bourgeoisie should do is seek to uphold Intl Law, State sovereignty.

Pro-tip look up definition of "realism" in foreign policy w refererence to adherence/not of "int law"
-
"Pro-tip"? Don't be a pompous prick with me Marky Mark, thought better of you than that tbh.
@NinaByzantina -
When warranted I will. When not, I won't. Didnt say I agreed w recent Kremlin policy in Syria, but is Realism
-
You think little old me criticising the Russian billionaire booj on twitter is reason for you to be a pompous prick?
-
@NinaByzantina I simply pointed out IR field fact. If you don't like that, can't help you. Lady was correct on Realism -
You admitted you were being a pompous prick, don't pretend otherwise now. I didn't ask for your help.

Russia is not opposing the US in Syria even 'diplomatically', rather seeking 'cooperation', thus enabling them.
@NinaByzantina -
probably Russia is forced to be careful in Syria, we don't know all details.
-
Why is that? You act like its a good thing your own Govt hides policy from you, hahaha?
@NinaByzantina -
no, I mean ordinary diplomatic games. I mean, it's obvious Russia doesn't have as many trump cards as the US
-
The war is not in Russia, you seem to forget Syria is not Russia's country to "play games" with??
@NinaByzantina -
I didn't say "Syria is game for Russia". You misinterpret my words
-
U imply Russia doesn't have "trump cards" to defend Syria vs US--Intl Law in UN is available to any country.
@NinaByzantina -
looks like you have big illusions and hopes about the UN as of fair transparent organization

Advocating Russia rebuke US presence in Syria rather than seek to enable & 'coop' with it is not demanding they declare war.
@NinaByzantinaThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

But i'm guessing you'd fiercely defend Putin & Co's policy in Donbass even, so there's no real point to this conversation...
@NinaByzantina -
It's called diplomacy. Freaks me out oftenly too, but without it the body count would be much higher imo.
-
What is the practical purpose? To make the killer look nice so he kills less people, or just does it slower?
