Ngisanda kundiza nginqamule izikhathi ezingu-11—kusuka eTokyo, eJapane kuya eMoscow, eRussia.
I-Russia yiyona izwe elikhulu kunawo wonke emhlabeni, ehlanganisa ngaphezu kwengxenye eyodwa kweziyisishiyagalombili zendawo ehlala abantu emhlabeni, cishe enkulu ngokuphindwe kabili kune-United States futhi inemithombo eningi yamaminerali namandla, izinqolobane ezinkulu kunazo zonke emhlabeni. I-Russia inenani labantu lesishiyagalolunye ngobukhulu emhlabeni elinabantu abangaphezu kwezigidi ezingu-146.6. Inani labantu base-U.S. labangu-321,400,000 likhulu ngokuphindwe kabili kunelaseRussia.
Angikabuyeli eRussia kusukela ekuqaleni kwawo-1990 lapho iSoviet Union izihlakaza futhi ivumela amazwe amasha ayi-14 ukuthi adalwe kuyo. Ngaleso sikhathi ngangiyinxusa lase-U.S. futhi ngangifuna ukuba yingxenye yokuvulwa okungokomlando kwamaHhovisi Enxusa Lase-U.S. kwelinye lamazwe asanda kwakhiwa. Ngacela ukuthunyelwa ezweni elisha e-Asia Ephakathi futhi ngokushesha ngazithola ngiseTashkent, e-Uzbekistan.
Njengoba amanxusa amasha ayesekelwa ngokomthetho evela eNxusa LeNxusa Lase-U.S. eMoscow, ngaba nenhlanhla yokuya njalo eMoscow phakathi nezinyanga ezintathu ezimfushane engise-Uzbekistan kwaze kwaba yilapho kunikezwa izisebenzi ezihlala njalo zeNxusa. Eminyakeni embalwa kamuva ngo-1994, ngabuyela e-Asia Emaphakathi ohambweni lweminyaka emibili eBishkek, eKyrgyzstan futhi ngaphinde ngavakashela eMoscow.
Manje cishe amashumi amabilieminyakeni emihlanu kamuva, ngemva kweminyaka engaphezu kwamashumi amabili yokuhlalisana ngokuthula noshintsho olukhulu lusuka ezikhungweni eziqhutshwa uhulumeni luye emabhizinisini azimele kanye neRussian Federation ejoyina i-G20, uMkhandlu WaseYurophu, i-Asia-Paciic Economic Cooperation (APEC), i-Shanghai Cooperation Organization ( I-SCO), i-Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) kanye ne-World Trade Organization, i-U.S./NATO kanye ne-Russia zibambene nempi ebandayo yekhulunyaka lama-21 egcwele “izivivinyo” ezinkulu zezempi lapho kube nesinyathelo esincane esingalungile. kungaletha impi.
