Looking around the newpapers this morning, I am beginning to wonder whether the Russian tactics orchestrated by the ex-KGB thugs in the Kremlin are beginning to unravel. Yes, they are still holding Georgia hostage, and I will believe the withdrawal when I actually see it, but the knock-on effect is beginning to draw countries that surround Russia more westwards. The Ukraine has offered to share with the west its early warning radar data and the crass Russian statement that Poland is a target will only make existing links stronger.
Ironically, the action in Georgia could isolate Russia even more.
