The Russians can easily make up that money. One of the reasons why they are sticking by Syria is because lost a $4 billion dollar contract with Libya.The Syrians are retrofitting their naval base at Tartus.

“The Russians can easily make up that money.”

Make up all that money out of thin air? When was the last time Russian navy or airforce made a big ticket purchase of a brand new fighter or submarine/aircraft carrier? Where is the money?

Libya just fell apart and Syria is going down that road next. Yeah right, stick with Syria. /s

Aww jeez, thanks. I know what seed money is.

Then again the wikipedia link doesnt quite explain $500 million “seed money” for what? The last couple time Russia played the “Great Game” they lost.
