Next Friday, will mark the sixth anniversary of an event that is likely to pass unnoticed
but that symbolizes one of the most important trends in Eastern Europe and the post-Soviet space
that has emerged since 1989. On November 22, 2007, Polish President Lech Kaczynski and his
Georgian counterpart Mikhail Saakashvili jointly dedicated in Tbilisi a statue of Prometheus, the
Greek who stole fire from the gods and was punished by them for giving it to man. That statue is
a vivid reminder not only of Poland’s approach to the Soviet borderlands in the 1920s and 1930s
but also of the important ways that this approach has been vindicated and revived since 1989, a
development that has made Poland the most important country in Eastern Europe for most of the
non-Russian post-Soviet countries.

Poland’s pre-war Promethean movement was anticipated by a memorandum that Jozef
Pilsudski wrote to the Japanese government in 1904 underscoring the need to cooperate ...

Attacks on Churches and Mosques in Russia on the Rise



By: 
Mairbek Vatchagaev

Orthodox Church burnt in Kazan (Source: tatar-inform.ru)


Against the backdrop of anti-Islamic hysteria launched by the Russian government’s propaganda machine, it is hard not to notice the negative trend in such a delicate matter as interfaith dialogue in the country. Deliberately or not, a negative image of Muslims has been firmly established in Russia. A man with a beard or a woman wearing the hijab are increasingly perceived in society as extremists

It was inevitable that this attitude would result in a backlash by Muslims in Russia; the question only was whether Muslims would aim their opposition at politicians or Christians. Muslims are in fact becoming aggressive toward Christians because they are associated with the authorities. The Russian Orthodox Church also contributes to the trend because it aspires to become a dominant force in the society (http://www.nytimes.com/2013/03/19/world/europe/russian-regions-hijab-ban-puts-squeeze-on-muslims.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0; www.globalpost.com/dispatch/russia/100209/russian-orthodox-church).

The church bases its aspirations on the fact that ethnic Russians are an absolute majority in the ...

Is Putin Planning to Use the Olympics Again as a Cover for Aggression?

November 9, 2013 

by Paul Goble

Paul Goble (@PaulGouble1) is a longtime specialist on the non-Russian peoples of Eurasia. For the last nine months, he has been preparing a Sochi Countdown each Friday on his www.windowoneurasia2.blogspot.com

Moscow’s moves over the last few months demonstrate that Russian President Vladimir Putin views the Sochi Olympiad as a useful occasion for further repressions against the peoples within the borders of the Russian Federation, but there are increasing indications that he may be planning to use them, just as he did the 2008 Beijing Games, as a cover for aggression against one or more neighboring countries.

Six years ago, Putin launched a war of aggression against Georgia on the same day when many of the world’s leaders were in Beijing to attend that of the opening ceremony of that year’s Summer Olympiad, thus exploiting the difficulties Western governments inevitably faced in terms of diplomatic niceties and government communications and delayed if not ...
