One Comment so far ...
“To Kasparov, Russian President Vladimir Putin’s regime is tantamount to “fascism”, dismantling Russian democracy with the support of a supine West, which is interested only in stability in the East.” http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/4163439.stm
“Russian democracy”? I think this guy burnt his brians off palying too much chess………”Russian democracy” yah right……all that talk about ‘genius’ went to his head and now he think he really is a genius, hah…
Between a week Russia with a couple of rich oligarchs and a strong Russia with Putin, the whole world is better off with a strong Russia….
