It is going to be difficult for the USA to get used to the word "NO!", but they will have to from now on - especially from President Medvedev and Prime Minister Putin and Foreign Minister Lavrov - who I hope will make it very clear to the Secretary of State of the USA, Mrs. Clinton, that NO means NO, even if she is bending over backwards to be charming.
Look into twhat has been happening in Ykaterinburg this week! Not to mention Russia telling the WTO to get lost - more or less. At least that is how I read the article about Putin walking out on the latest WTO meeting.
It is a bit much for some to harp on about territorial integrity in Georgia when they took another view in the Kosovo/Serbia recently. Furthermore, whilst Abkhazia seems to have almost universal support for independence, a substantial section of the Kosovan population wish to remain Serbian - meaning that stability in Kosovo can only be achieved by the ongoing presence of peacekeepers to keep the two sides of the local population apart. For Abkhazia, the threat is purely external.
Today Russia's decision vetoing at the UN,the western backed resolution,to extend UN mission in Georgia,is sign of many more things to come,and I am sure it will be very HARD to accept and disappointing, to all small NATO leaders .Today's decision with which I totally agree,was the first nail driven through the HEART of the NATO Alliance,and more are being made at this moment to force this ALLIANCE to change course.
For a change I would love see the leaders of this Infamous Alliance answer for their Crimes and placed in jail for the rest of their lives.
