It seem to me that Mr Khrushchev was the most underestimated political leader of the 20 thief Century. at home, he brooks off from the Stalin era and at the planetary level, was confronted to the over expending capitalist hegemony. He was strong enough to show to the imperialists what they could do and what they could not do without being sucked in too dangerous confrontations. He knew that to be respected by the Americans, one must show strength, not weakness. Mr Medvedev should study Nikita Khrushchev's legacy and not bind over all those creeps former US secretary of state. Sincerely... Jean-Claude Meslin
