In the Kremlin

For the power is a shame!

August 11, 2011 Alexander Podrabinek

I remember that in the Soviet Union it was sometimes embarrassing for the leaders of the country - shamcams who were not able to connect two words that did not know how to decently lead, stupid and without any hopes for improvement. In short, the senile stage of socialism. Something similar has to be experienced now. Then one president will be embraced in the head of the head of the topless photographers or to explain on the pasted street jargon, then the other, chuckling condescendingly, will broadcast such a thing, why do you begin to think about whether we live in the country with rich cultural traditions and with a thousand -year history?

No, no one has the illusions of the relatively very modest merits of our last presidents, but in other countries they might think that they are the elite, the best, chosen by the people.

What did President Medvedev say in an interview with the opposition Echo of Moscow, enemy peak and manual Russia Today? Honestly, if all 53 minutes of interviews Medvedev were significantly silent, he would have made an impression more profitable. We must pay tribute to reporters, they did not spare him too much, although they were far from real journalistic ruthlessness. But even these straight, but by no means tricky questions, Medvedev could not find such answers that his position was clear and at the same time was not funny. Probably, he and his colleagues in the Kremlin every day receive such a distorted information picture of the world, such a frank lubcoc and a heavy cranberry that, with the slightest clash with the real world, they are lost and do not know what to answer.

Journalists ask why the sarcose plan has not been fulfilled and Russian troops are not reserved for pre -war positions. Medvedev replies: "I fulfilled the plan of Medvedev Sarcosi one hundred percent." But what about the withdrawal of troops to pre -war positions, journalists are interested. He happened, Medvedev answers calmly. The troops are reserved "to the pre -war position in the understanding of the Russian side." What is it? The position has coordinate points, not Russian or French understanding. Who does Medvedev holds for idiots?

Journalists ask how Medvedev refers to the resolution of the US Senate, recognizing the occupation of Russia 20% of Georgian territory. Medvedev replies that "the formulations of the Senate are not based on anything, they reflect the taste addictions of individual elderly members of the Senate, who, for subjective reasons, sympathize with one or another people." And in general, he does not care about that. Is this a politician’s answer, the president of the country?

Journalists ask Medvedev why he does not go to dialogue with the legally elected President of Georgia. Medvedev replies that he cannot forgive him for the murders of our peacekeepers: “I will never forgive him, and therefore I will not communicate with him, although he periodically tries to wink in various international corridors and so on.” And is this the president’s answer? Saakashvili runs along the international corridors and winks Medvedev? Proud Medvedev does not sit down at the negotiating table, because he cannot forgive Saakashvili? What kind of kindergarten? If personal forgiveness was always a condition for dialogue, then no peace negotiations would have existed at all. What pride or madness should take possession of Medvedev so that he agreed to put the relations of the two countries depending on his personal hostility towards Mikhail Saakashvili?

The first thing that comes to mind: just Medvedev did not find a better answer, but there are actually quite serious reasons. However, reflecting, recalling Putin’s similar statements and the entire Russian political style, you begin to understand that Medvedev told the truth. They really "do not want to stand" with Saakashvili. They sit in a large sandbox behind the Kremlin walls and play in great policy. They are always offended, cursing to the best of their street or home education, steal toys from each other and are ready to fight with everyone who does not recognize their championships. Soviet insanity was replaced by Russian infantilism.

Change! How to change them soon, while the great age infantes and unbalanced teenagers have done with Russia such troubles from which it will no longer be able to recover. Change without delay. But how?
