On July 10th, I made a comment about the real purposes about that US' ABM system. You should ride it again. Since that time, I spent almost three wonderful months in my favorite city: Orenburg (Russia). I made some interesting studies. In one way, it seems that your country is on the right track, but on the other way there is somes incoherences hard to understand. One of them concern directly RTTV. I would have liked to see your studio when I was in Moscow. I noticed that the phone N° given to foreigners does not work in Russia. Then, true friends I found the good ones (84956498989 or tool free 84955439393 but I was very badly received. It seems to me that like your occidental collegues from big TV, you practice the stars' medias-system with huge salaries and little sincerity. For more details, just ask. I really enjoyed my stay in Orenburg; I could live permanently in this city and forget the whole geopolitic. In August, Mr Putin was there, then on September 8th, Mr Medvedev and the President of Kazakhstan. When visiting your huge country, your leaders cost a lot less to the russian tax-payers than our Sarkonaparte to the french "contribuables" when he visit the Plateau des Glières near my home. Sorry Future Generations ! Best Regards. Jean-Claude Meslin

Just make it simple, every missile introduced in Europe by the US is matched with an increase by one of strategic missiles targeted at the US above the 1500 or what ever is agreed target. This makes missiles in Europe simple and accountable back to the US. The US would then know where it stands, as it increases risks for us, it feels the risk itself.

Count it's never that simple with politicians, because politicians are, by definition, idiots who have to do everything in the "politically correct" way.

As the old Chinese saying goes-MAY YOU LIVE IN INTERESTING TIMES-well, I think that we are living in very interesting times at the moment and sadly enough there are too many crazy politicians out there who are making our lives lot more difficult. Since the Cold War ended Russia has done everything right when it came to dealing with the Western partners and especially the USA but on the other hand the Western partners and the USA never stopped playing their dirty games towards Russia and Russian interests. I can only hope that Russia has learned some lessons from the past because there is no way that they can trust the Americans. We all know that the Americans are going through some difficult times now but you can be sure that they'll do anything in order to remain a sole superpower in the world. Building a new Missile Defense System will give them the advantage over Russia and China which means they'll be able to strike first and the Americans have been working on this for a long time now. Hundreds of billions of dollars have been spent on new weapons and the Americans will try to take control of the Eurasia region which is also called a HEARTLAND the most important region in the whole world and that's the reason we are having all these wars around Russia and China.They've been also building a large number of new military bases in the former Soviet Republics in order to get closer to Russia and China. Obama will not do any good, he is probably more dangerous than Bush and on top of that he is controlled by a very powerful group in USA that is working full time on destroying Russia and China because these people want a total control of the whole world. We need strong Russia and China to work together and to save the world from these evil people who will stop at nothing just to gain control and power, so I am praying that Russian and Chinese friendship will grow stronger because they are our only hope.
