I remember when Biden and Obama laughed at the idea of Russia being a problem just a few years ago.
Was that when ISIS was the JV team?

and there is really no reason for Vietnam to openly welcome Russia to open a base. It wouldn't make any sense for them.
It's possibly a move to place a counter-weight to the Chinese. They are most likely floating this as a way to pressure the US for more aid and more military cooperation, so I don't think they'll actually do it, but they will get in bed with anyone whom they think won't back down from the Chinese.

Geopolitics isn't about bombing the shite out of your enemies, it's about moving chess pieces into place that will give you a tactical/economic advantage.
Your little sentence there reminded me of a quote from Putin about Obama.
quote:
"negotiating with Obama is like playing chess with a pigeon. The pigeon knocks over all the pieces, craps on the board, then struts around like it won the game."
Not sure if its a valid quote or not, but your usage of chess to describe Obama's amateur hour foreign policy makes it seem right.

there's no clear evidence that Cuba or Vietnam would be open to the return of the Russian military.

Now our generals are saying WWIII is on the very near horizon and will only last minutes.
Guess I better go dig a bunker.

Russia has publicly denounced YOU! Note: You are not at war.
You will pay for this in time!
[Very well.]
