The more I read Russian history, the LESS I understand Russia. what's clear is that leader, Tsar, Party Secy, President, Prime Minister, whatever the title, must be strong, hard, smart and feared or he or she is toast.

My friend was a lifer in the Navy. He knew some high up analysts/spooks. One told him that Russia had been invaded so many times over the centuries, that they had developed a mindset on it. Everything they did was to create a buffer zone around them, and they looked at everything in the context of someone trying to invade them again.

I suspect from what little knowledge I have that your friend is right. I would also add the Russia is NOT the USSR which saw as its world mission spreading the Commie ideal..while I would keep an eye on them, hell I keep an eye on Paraguay, I say the Cold war is over and Russia is now the problem if it is a problem of the EU.

Left to me? I would bring all the troops home.
