The Kremlin Denials Fly
By Yulia Latynina
The people in charge of foreign policy seem to have developed severe short-term memory loss. In the run-up to the U.S. presidential election, President Vladimir Putin announced that a vote for the opponents of George W. Bush was nothing less than a vote for international terrorism. But after Bush won, Putin gave an Iron Curtain-style speech in India directed against the architects of a unipolar world.
It's a sad thing. Had Senator John Kerry beaten Bush last month, it would have been a victory for international terrorism. But Bush won, scoring a victory for a unipolar world.
