By exchanging dialogues with other nations - NATO and non-NATO, the US government is trying to drum up support against Russia for its isolation.  One wonders if this attempt of isolating Russia is a seriously thought-out foreign policy or just a face saving attempt on the part of the US government.  Yes, it is unfortunate what has happened in Ukraine, but by levying sanctions against Russia and isolating it will have lot of global economic drawbacks.  Lot of global corporations have investment, business dealings, contractual agreements and financial arrangement with the Russian corporations and its banks.  Just imagine, if all these transactions came to a grinding halt.  One can easily visualize the magnitude of unemployment, unrest and civil commotion across all nations.  Is that what the State Government is looking and waiting for?  Based on a sour Sino-USA relationship, this writer wonders as to how can USA expect China to go against Russia especially when there is no love lost between these two countries?  On the same footing, one should not ignore the flow of cold vibes generated by the diplomatic hassle in New York between India and USA either.  Also, the proximity of Russia to China and India and their inter-business dealings will prohibit them to vote openly against Russia.  Reviewing the overall scenario, it appears the aftermath of US government's attempt to isolate Russia will have more global negative impact.
