Col. Douglas McGregor

By the end of this week, he is going to meet.

I think it's in the next few days.

It may be next week.

I don't know.

He's going to be meeting with the leaders of the five Central Asian republics, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and so forth.

He wants to talk to them about commercial arrangements with us and trade.

This is going to be a real serious issue for the Russians and the Chinese.

First of all, Moscow has not forgotten our attempted coup in January, February of 2022, when we tried to overthrow the government in Uzbekistan.

The Russians went in there at the request of the president and stabilized it.

This was another one of these color revolutions cooked up by the National Endowment for Democracy.

which should be the National Endowment for Anarchy, and of course the CIA, always.

The CIA mucks around in Central Asia all the time.

We're still pumping hundreds of millions of dollars into places like Afghanistan that are really destined to support subversive elements in Central Asia.

The Russians don't like it.

They don't want it.

Neither did the Chinese.

They want stability there.

They want to build the one belt, one road, which they know will bring prosperity to the people of Central Asia.

And they also have a long memory.

They don't want Central Asia to become what it was a few hundred years ago, which was the greatest force in the world under someone like Genghis Khan.
