Interesting that he should mention that what is happening in Europe on Russia’s borders is being repeated in Asia on China's borders. If The Bear and The Panda get together, the US and certain allies could find themselves in hot water if they rattle their cages? One of those allies is of course Australia who are already hosting several US military bases with plans for more and these look like replacing the US bases in the Philippines as the front line against China/Russia should any hostilities erupt.
I don’t think Trump is helping much to calm things down.
