My earlier comment has rightly vindicated the statement by Putin today. He has warned the US and has asked them to retrieve their European Defense System and warning to withdrawing the 1987 agreement. Putin espouses much of the policies of the late Leonid Breshnev in stark deference to Gorbachev. Putin’s perestroika is based on a militarized Russia in congruence with Bush in the US. Surrounding Russia with allies only increases tension. Dr. Rice should advice Bush to resolve not aggravate.
