Re: Europe or Euro-Siberia?
I've voted Europe. Those are two different concepts in my opinion.
To me Europe extends from the Straight of Gibraltar to the Urals and beyond. Siberia is European so long as Russians live there. There are buffer and sub-buffer regions which are important to the survival of Europe as a whole.
In fact the buffer area should have extended down to the Atlas Mountains in Northern Africa. Unfortunately the diversion of resources towards defending the dinastic rights of the Habsburgs prevented the Spains from fulfilling her destiny.
The more we shrink our buffer areas of protection, the more that our survival is endangered.
