| Putin's New Cold War |
| 2008-02-07 |
| So you thought the Cold War was over, did you? Welcome to Vladimir Putin's new Russian Empire. . . . Russian revanchism for the supposed humiliations of the Yeltsin era in the 1990s drives this agenda. President Putin calls the collapse of the Soviet Union the "greatest geopolitical catastrophe" of the twentieth century, and the suggestion is that everything that has happened since 1991, or even 1989, should now be reversed. Oslo accords? |
