• La Russie doit contrôler l'Europe occidentale pour priver les États-Unis de ses alliés dans la partie occidentale de l'Eurasie, pendant que la Chine doit chasser les États-Unis de l'Extrême-Orient. De cette façon, les États-Unis seraient remis à leur place et s'occuperaient plus à dépenser de l'argent pour combattre la pauvreté et construire des écoles pour ses enfants au lieu de détruire jusqu'aux fondations des pays appauvris tels que l'Iraq, l'Afghanistan et le Yémen.
