Window on Eurasia: Russians in Latvia Increasingly Look Toward Europe Not Moscow
Paul Goble

Vienna, June 4 – The ethnic Russian community in Latvia, a group on whom Moscow has long counted on to influence the government there, increasingly looks toward the European Union of which Latvia is a member and not to the Russian Federation which is not, according to Moscow’s ambassador in Riga.
In a wide-ranging interview published in today’s Gazeta, Aleksandr Veshnyakov provides some intriguing insights into the evolution of the Russian community in Latvia over the last decade and Moscow’s view of both that ethnic community and the country in which it now lives (www.gzt.ru/politics/2008/06/04/063003.html).
And while Veshnyakov, who has long been known for his independent positions and may have lost his earlier job as head of Russia’s Central Election Commission because of them, may not be typical of everyone in the Russian leadership, his remarks are ...

Oreshkin: today's presidents of Chechnya and Ingushetia are Kremlin's favourites

Dmitri Oreshkin, a Russian political scientist, believes that the current presidents of Chechnya and Ingushetia are gainful for the Kremlin: Ramzan Kadyrov controls Chechnya, and Murat Zyazikov is loyal to the Russian leadership.

In Mr Oreshkin's opinion, the Grozny-Moscow relations make a typical confederative model: at the level of rhetoric they say that Russia has a vertical of power, and Moscow controls Chechnya, but actually, it is controlled by Kadyrov; and even federal troops feel uneasy in Chechnya, for example, the "Vostok" (East) battalion.

"It's a typical confederative model. The Russian authorities are bargaining and make deals with President of Chechnya, and Moscow starts reckoning with him. Who indeed depends on whom - it's a complex issue," Mr Oreshkin said today on air of the "Echo Moskvy" Radio Station in his comments on the information disseminated by Russian media that ...

Window on Eurasia: Caucasus Countries Mark 90th Anniversaries of Post-1917 Independence
Paul Goble

Vienna, June 10 – Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia have just commemorated the 90th anniversaries of their first modern declarations of independence, thus continuing the process of recovering an important part of their pasts and laying the foundation for their present and future existence as independent countries.
It has long been generally accepted that since 1991, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania have had an easier path than the former Soviet republics in large measure because they, unlike all the others, stressed their continuity with the pre-war republics and have thus been engaged in restoring that rather than creating something new.
Now, however, the three Transcaucasus countries by marking this earlier period of independence are insisting that they too have a specific past to build on, one that does not in the nature of things put them in the same position ...

Window on Eurasia: Russians Increasingly Oppose Getting Involved in Post-Soviet Conflicts, Poll Shows
Paul Goble

Vienna, June 7 – Only one Russian in 16 supports the use of Russian military power to resolve inter-ethnic conflicts in other post-Soviet states, a figure that raises questions about how much popular support there is for the increasingly nationalistic rhetoric Moscow politicians have adopted about Crimea and for the Kremlin’s decision to introduce railway troops into Abkhazia.
According to the results of a new Levada Center poll released yesterday, 39 percent of Russians are against getting involved in any of these conflicts, up from 29 percent in 1992, instead favoring a policy of “complete neutrality” rather than backing one or another of those involved (www.levada.ru/press/2008060601.html).
As was the case 16 years ago, nearly half of all Russians say they believe that Moscow should “act by diplomatic methods” in these conflicts and seek to bring the ...

Putin’s Russia Is promoted By “Strategy Page”!

Putin’s Russia Is promoted By “Strategy Page”!

Every other day, there are some individuals and media performers who choose to be appointing themselves as defenders, guardians and supporters for those who preferred to be the oppressor and tyrants by bullying, intimidating, and terrorizing millions of people that are living under tough situation and circumstances due to the bare fact of being colonized and occupied by a tyrant imperial power. Those can be seen as devil defenders!

The “Strategy Page” published an evaluation in June, 6, 2008, that assessed what was described the “Islamic Terrorists”, and started with the following introduction:

“Over the last seven years, some countries have become particularly difficult for Islamic terrorists to operate in. Pro-terrorist message boards and listservs (mailing lists) get into heated discussions about these places, and how to overcome the obstacles found there.”

Regardless of what were the scale and/or the assessment criteria that were followed by the ...
