They scored a few firsts but their system just wasn't up to scratch in the long run.
It was not Soviet system alone but its interaction with Africa decades earlier that caused alot of internal damage because they didnot have understanding of how to apply that Soft Power for protection. when they removed Prigozhin they replaced him with Muslims to deal with Africa.
He says Russia want to be a unique super power (pay attention to the word Unique) but for this to happen sooner some muslim states has to be kicked into the ground. i dont want to write the impolite stuff that i read.
