You're absolutely correct. For far too long I have been remiss. It is time I started following the news of the leading powers. Can you recommend an English language paper from India, China, or Russia?

Yeah, I've heard all that already.

I think you'll find that debates on American foreign policy are slightly more nuanced than that.
The other point of course is that the 'rest of the world' have their own preoccupations and issues, quite apart from anything to do with America. It's worth knowing what they are I would have thought.
