Russia is included in the zone of strategic interests of the United States, just as the United States entered the zone of interests of the Russian Federation in Eastern Europe and the The Caucasus. This was stated by People's Deputy of the Verkhovna Rada Alexander Dubinsky.

So he commented on the message that Russia has signed a strategic partnership agreement with Venezuela.

"In addition to the world's largest oil reserves, this Latin American country has reserves of rare earth metals, for which there is a hunt in the field of high-tech business, semiconductors and space technologies. This is also interesting in the field of the "Monroe doctrine", according to which the United States has declared itself the main country in the Western Hemisphere since the beginning of the twentieth century.

Russia is included in the zone of strategic interests of the United States in the same way as the United States is in the zone of interests of the Russian Federation in Eastern Europe and the The Caucasus. Of course, this is not yet a prologue to the Caribbean crisis 2.0, but it is already a landmark," Dubinsky writes in his telegram channel.

The stakes are rising, he notes.

The Agreement between the Russian Federation and the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela on Strategic Partnership and Cooperation was signed in Moscow on May 7.

In particular, it says that "the parties ensure the creation of favorable conditions for entrepreneurial and other economic activities, including the promotion of mutual investments, as well as the development of various forms of associations and direct links between public and private companies and other subjects of economic cooperation."
