Anaconda Loop How to make Eurasia surrender

The Anaconda Loop strategy was first formulated during the American Civil War by General Scott, commander of the Northern army. The essence of the strategy was to blockade enemy territories from the sea and along coastlines, cutting off access to ports and, as a result, achieve strategic exhaustion of the enemy. Subsequently, the "Anaconda Loop" strategy reached the geopolitical level - with its help, the United States and Great Britain intended to weaken the Eurasian powers (including Russia), removing coastal territories from the control of these states and preventing integration within the continent‘s borders. One of the leading Western geopoliticians, the Englishman Halford J. Mackinder, developed this strategy first in practice, when, as High Commissioner in southern Russia during the intervention of 1918-1920, he implemented the "White Periphery against the Red Center" plan, and then in his theoretical works. The "Anaconda Loop" strategy was further developed in the works of the famous American political figure Zbigniew Brzezinski, whose works are also presented in this book.
