"Russia clearly reached a consensus within the Security Council in both supporting, crafting and passing the recent sanctions resolution,” State Department spokesman Philip Crowley said at a daily briefing.
This comes at a good time, because if it turns out the nuclear scientist really was abducted by the CIA, then the US diplomatic position will be greatly weakened.
America is playing the fiddle and the Russian Federation is trying to dance to the enticing tune. Russian policies are ill conceived if they are tilted against Russian long-term interests. Russia must never burn her bridges with Iran, because Iran will survive long after America, the self-anointed "The Beautiful", has collapsed into a debt-mired Latino peasant nation.
Sounds like Russia is trying to wiggle out of having to pay Tehran the $400 million penalty for not delivering the S-300 by engaging in ridiculous accusations and get themselves off the hook. Russia's position is pathetic and servile. Has Russia forgoteen the events of August 2008? Does Russia think that the US position has changed just because Obananahead is in office? US policy is one and the same, regardless of which party governs, and Russia is in the US gun sights...... Be careful, Russia. You are treading on thin ice.
I agree with Srbin, Kihnu, and Paul. Russia is making HUGE mistake and will receive NOTHING in return for cooperating with USA. Absolutely nothing. Obama is in office, but foreign policy has remained unchanged. The European missile defense is now more complex and threatening, Georgia is still being rearmed and supported by US and Israel. They are changing Russia's stance on Iran which has NEVER pestered the caucus regions unlike US, UK, Israel and Saudi Arabia. Iran is closer and more cooperative with Russia. We actually have the Samand cars here and other Iranian products. They are observers in the SCO, trying to become members. Russia has backstabbed this historical nation (which hasn't invaded another in recent history, unlike all the nations threatening Iran). Are they pursuing nuclear weapons? MAYBE!!! I would if I were them, they are literally surrounded by US military bases. Look at a map and you'll see US has them surrounded, plus they have carrier groups antagonizing them 24/7. US has been drumming on about invading Iran literally for years and of course now people in the Western world, hearing this now think it is good. Iran's domestic problems were directly from the CIA = NGO groups, Green Revolution, Nada, and English banners. Bush is on video stating the CIA went into Iran. It failed. Russia is being absolutely pathetic!!!! I disapprove of our President's foreign policy in terms of Western bowing. I have no problems with doing business, but changing our bilateral relations just to suite the tastes of another nation is absolutely sickening and a HUGE sign of weakness. These actions leave a nation with no friends at all.
Russian's leaders are acting the same way like underdeveloped. countries's leaders (western puppets).While don't change their mind, absolutely nothing they do can benefit Russia. I think the problem here is the old practice in Russia, the constant corruption emerge from oligarchies . I'm sure western countries are laughing of russian innocence and naivety. Unfortunately the actions and ways taken about the country's modernization are destined to fail.
TO : Jon Lester If you give me 5 million US dollars, you are welcome to kidnap me too! Obviously, his conscience was getting to him, this is the real reason why he went home. That and the Iranian government had threaten to kill his family. Try to look at the whole picture when it comes to the Iranian nuclear scientist's situation. Please stop watching FOX News. It's not really fair and balanced.










International community of criminal and barbaric thugs is what he should have said. It is said to see Russia again in the Vassal position to the Anglo-American alliance of terror. And then they wonder how easy it is for Chechen and Georgian terrorists to wage proxy war against her peoples.
