[QUOTE="virginiafiveo, post: 10544947, member: 39103"] Russia is still a major power and is part of the UN, they do have just as much vested international interest as any other country. bottom line, they have the right to oppose aggression in any form for any reason, it's called diplomacy guys, but most of you probably don't understand that russia and libya have trade agreements with Libya. to not strain or make this process more difficult, since currently the russians are not exactly doing real well, they will do what they can to protect the assets that are provided by their "friendly" relations with other countries regardless of who it is. I believe Libya is purchasing somewhere in the neighborhood of 4 Billion dollars worth of military equipment from Russia. hence the "hey guys, stop doing that" because it will obviously sour that deal. it's all about diplomacy for the russians. Russia is by no means considered a super power other than the fact they have nukes. but so does alot of the world. their military is of good size but technology limited because of country wide poverty. if people can't pay taxes, they can't fund a huge hi-tech military. however, let it be known, a serious battle with russia I would not want regardless of the number of friends we might have.
