      China (the second largest economy on Earth and still growing) calls the shots these days, Russia is just a heavily armed petrostate. Stop jumping at Russian shadows, they’re hasbeens.

          Title might as well read: When the Kremlin says “jump” the Venezuelan puppet government says “how high?”

          The title says

          Venezuela has formally proposed to join the BRICS group, says Maduro

          And for the record, if Venezuela was a Russian puppet it wouldn’t be supplying europe with oil rn.
