Perhaps when it's all over, we will pull down the statue of Josef Stalin in Gori, like we did to Saddam Hussein's statue. As one of the most powerful and murderous dictators in history, people in Russia still admire Stalin. If a country wants to join Nato that is their business. Why don't your country stop complaining and start your own alliance - like the Warsaw Pact. Oh, that's right.... the former Soviet Union didn't treat these countries very well.... so now they all want to be a part of the West. Get a life Russia Today!
