    India will be part of the team, there is a new World order in the wings. Do we trash talk the team, or try to find a way to play the game on an equal footing?



    The SCO-India ....Russia has encouraged India to join the organisation as a full-time member, because they see it as a crucial future strategic partner.[62][63] China has also welcomed India's accession to the SCO.[64] India applied for membership in September 2014,[65] and was approved for membership by the SCO in July 2015.[66] It signed a memorandum of obligations on 24 June 2016 at Tashkent to join SCO to join as a full-fledged member. It is expected to formally accede to the organization by 2017.[2]China isn't pulling the strings.

    Mr Putin said this-

    At the 2007 SCO summit Iranian Vice President Parviz Davudi addressed an initiative that has been garnering greater interest and assuming a heightened sense of urgency when he said, "The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation is a good venue for designing a new banking system which is independent from international banking systems".[31]

    The address by Putin also included these comments:

    "We now clearly see the defectiveness of the monopoly in world finance and the policy of economic selfishness. To solve the current problem Russia will take part in changing the global financial structure so that it will be able to guarantee stability and prosperity in the world and to ensure progress.
    "The world is seeing the emergence of a qualitatively different geo-political situation, with the emergence of new centers of economic growth and political influence.
    "We will witness and take part in the transformation of the global and regional security and development architectures adapted to new realities of the 21st century, when stability and prosperity are becoming inseparable notions."[32]

    Leaders present at the SCO summit in Yekaterinburg, Russia in 2009.
    On 16 June 2009, at the Yekaterinburg Summit, China announced plans to provide a US$10 billion loan to SCO member states to shore up the struggling economies of its members amid the global financial crisis.[33] The summit was held together with the first BRIC summit, and the China-Russia joint statement said that they want a bigger quota in the International Monetary Fund.[34]

    Crikey Bob and here's me thinking this is a serious thread , I love the sense of humour here

    Done a great job Putin, destabilise neighboring Ukrainian Crimea, send in Russian troops in a blatant act of state sponsored terrorism, murder Ukrainian citizens and military and cap it off by shooting down a civilian aircraft killing hundreds. Putins a gangster pure and simple, unfortunately he's also a national leader.

    I love this bit too, funny as hell.......................

    Leaders present at the SCO summit in Yekaterinburg, Russia ............ from memory the last national leaders to visit Yekaterinburg didn't do so well .

    It's serious enough, alright. This group has selected Putin , and I'm sure China is inscrutable enough to go with the flow until they have what they need. The Nations signed up to this new group did so for a reason, and the West should not just fob them off in an arrogant manner. No doubt Putin huffs & puffs, but if he can get enough fringe dwellers to come on side, we had better make sure our houses are not made of straw. [ don't believe I said that] I'm sure this surge in Anti West sentiment is precipitated by the Ukranian " incident " , and consequent Putin loss of face.

    Echo's of Europe in the 30's and another megalomaniac everyone tried to appease. All we need now to complete the circus is for Trump to get in. Makes our pollies look pretty sane.
    By all means get a Defender. If you get a good one, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.

    Here is another view on China, and the reasons behind their actions. It pays to look at all angles. To equate the present situation with Europe in the 30's is wrong , China has not taken any occupied territory [ in the case of the South China Sea] unlike Germany and the Munich agreement. But that is another story.
