"Russia as an aggressor, Russia as an imperialist -- this is all nonsense,"

Tell that to those who lived in the puppet Soviet states.

Before Putin I might have agreed with Gorby, but since Putin became President The Russian Federation has strated to act like the USSR. Look at their trying to grab as much Artic Rights as possible.

If Canada is a beaver sleeping with an elephant. Western Europe is sleeping with an abusive husband, he can be nice to you, but he'll whop your ass if you look at him funny, then he'll say "look what you made me do!"

It will take much more than 20 years before the old soviet way to do things will go away.

Other than its military, Russia is the sub-saharan Africa of Europe.
