Putin's attitude towards the West is precisely the problem, because of what he is. The fact that we are still referred to as "The West" is the problem: the concept of us and them and a complete unwillingness to participate in the international community and the democratic responsibilities that come with that participation, no doubt to ensure that his arse stays in power. Using the Party's pollution of the gene pool in the region during the previous century is not a valid excuse for his actions.

When the gas revenue starts to dry up chairman Putin will be funding his military with printed money, re-instating collective farms and turning to the West again for food aid.

Younger Russians who look back (to the times before they were born) with fondness at the once "mighty" Rodina should be careful what they wish for.
