My comment:
(a) The report mentions 五大国外交较量, which apparently refers to the six parties EXCEPT N Korea--so 五大国 includes S Korea.
(b) The report cites

John Pomfret, U.S. steps up pressure on China to rein in North Korea. Washington Post, Dec. 6, 2010.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venice
(US accuses China as an--or even THE--enabler of N Korea)

(i) 抗中集团 anti-China bloc
(ii) Please read the last five paragraphs only--at web page 2.

(c) Please recall that just 3 days ago (Dec. 3), I said "there is no anti-American Group" in reply to WPF's 两大阵营在演进.

("When China effectively incorporates Taiwan in the years to come, that will signal the arrival of a truly multipolar and less predictable military environment in East Asia")

My comment:
(a) There is no need to read this article.
(b) In case you still want to, here is support:
(i) imperium (n; Latin): "EMPIRE"
(ii) Kievan Rus'
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kievan_Rus%27
(the name coined by Nikolai Karamzin for the Medieval state of Rus; 880s-1349; capital: Kiev; founded by East Slavic Tribes and Scandinavian traders (Varangians) called "Rus")

* Kievan is adjective or noun (inhabitant) for Kiev.
(iii) For Muscovy, see Grand Duchy of Moscow
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Duchy_of_Moscow
(1283-1547; The Grand Duchy of Moscow, as the state is known in Russian records, has been referred to by many Western sources as Muscovy; the successor to the Principality of Moscow and the predecessor of the Tsardom of Russia; section 1 Origin)
(iv) Venice
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venice
(section 1.2 Expansion)
(v) The "husband" in "Husbanding our power" (vt): "to manage prudently and economically"

(2) Christopher Bodeen, Wikileaks cables likely to strain China-US ties more. Associated Press, Dec. 6, 2010.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/12/06/AR2010120602573.html?tid=nn_twitter
(A Febraury 2010 cable signed by US ambassador Jon Huntsman titled "Stomp around and carry a small stick: China's new 'global assertiveness' raises hackles, but has more form than substance")

My comment: The AP report refers to

Ewen MacAskill, WikiLeaks cables: 'Aggressive' China losing friends around the world; Britain, India and Japan complain of Beijing's diplomatic 'muscle-flexing', while Africans talk of coercion in aid-for-resources deals. Guardian, Dec. 4, 2010.

, which I brought to your attention yesterday.
