Russia at the beginning of 3rd millenium. Geopolitical resources and options
Journal Title: Codrul Cosminului - Year 2012, Vol 18, Issue 1
Abstract
The authors present and analyze demographic and economic resources of Russia and also its geopolitical options, favored by the control of these resources. Geopolithically, nowadays Russia has great difficulties when it comes to demography, because of the decrease of birth rate, to the poor demographic density, low life expectancy and its population’s precarious general health state. All the same, nowadays Russia is the richest country in the world. Based on these considerations, the authors consider that Rusia could become a true super-power (according to Zbigniew Brzezinski’s considerations) only if it will solve its demographical problems and will build a Western-style army and economy, based on its huge economic resources.
