I have yet to read many reports on this "crisis" but my instincts tell me it is yet another attempt to make Putin - and all of Russia - look evil. It is worth mentioning that, as far as I know, President Putin is the only person with real power in international affairs who has named the Neocons as Trotskyites.
Here is Vladimir Putin's comment made to Slovakian STV:
Quote:
My greatest concern is not that dramatic events are taking place there, but that they are going outside the framework of the existing legislation and constitution. We all need to understand that democracy means, among other things, a sound, correct law and the ability to obey this law and live by it. Why do some countries and some peoples have this privilege – to live by the law and in stability, while others are doomed to permanent revolution? Lev Trotsky had a theory of permanent revolution. Why should we introduce this in the post-Soviet space?
