Is the Russian Government Insouciant?

On March 1 the US National Reconnaissance Office launched a spy satellite carried by an Atlas V rocket that was powered by a Russian RD-180 engine. The Unites States, an alleged ‘superpower,’ is not capable of putting its own spy satellites into space. The ‘superpower’ is dependent on Russia, which provides the ‘superpower’ with the rocket engines to put up spy satellites to spy on Russia!!! Here we have in Lenin’s words, the Russians selling Washington the rope with which to hang Russia!
Does Russia value a few more US dollars more than it values its national existence? Apparently so.
Do the Atlanticist Integrationists, the Washington funded and supported Fifth Column inside Russia, inside the Russian media, and inside the Russian government, so much desire to be part of the decadent and immoral West that they are willing to sacrifice Russian sovereignty and are willing, like all of Europe, Canada, Australia, and Japan, to be Washington’s vassal? Yes.
