Geopolitical Mosaic: Sudanese Consul General of Russia Attacked in Sudan, and Western Journalists Dreamed of Putin
African with a knife. A native of the Central African Republic attacked the Russian Consul General in Sudan and his spouse. The injured were hospitalized with stab wounds, reports "Voice of Russia".
The incident occurred in Khartoum. The condition of the Consul General and his wife is assessed as stable, said RIA "News».
The police believe that the motive for the crime was the news received by the perpetrator about the murder of his brother in the CAR ... by French soldiers. In the CAR there is no Russian military. However, the man wanted to avenge his brother, for which he decided to kill any representative of Western civilization.
How to transmit "Vesti", the Russian Embassy in Sudan has increased security measures. This was announced by Charge d'Affaires dipyvedstva Yuri Vidakas.

Was there a blow? A powerful explosion thundered in Syrian Latakia. Representatives of the Syrian opposition reported on the next air strike of the Israeli Air Force, the result of which was the destruction of a warehouse with C-300 air defense missile systems, which Russia allegedly supplied to Syria, reports NEWSru.com.
Note that the sources of information are dubious.
A statement by the “oppositionists” about the destruction of the C-300 missile depot in Latakia was published by The Jerusalem Post in Israel with reference to the “Local Coordination Council” in Syria. He wrote on Facebook that a powerful explosion thundered in the Sheikh Daer area in the west of Latakia on the night of January 27. It is indicated that the official Jerusalem and Damascus did not comment on information about the state of emergency in Latakia.
In the development of the topic in other media appeared the statements of "anonymous sources" from the Syrian leadership. They allegedly deny that the Israelis were involved in the explosion in Latakia.
In general, we add, anonymous sources are agitated.
Israelis to Syrians: three tons of warm things. Thousands of members of the Ha Noar ha-wed ve-ha-lomed youth movement gathered more than three tons of winter clothing and warm blankets at 80 humanitarian aid stations throughout Israel, reports MIGnews.com.
These things will soon go to Syria. In Kiryat Tivon in northern Israel, volunteers are preparing 200 to send thousands of items of clothing.
“This project was created at the initiative of the people of Israel who want to help the Syrians. That is, the government has nothing to do with it. Even if the representatives of the authorities have a different opinion on this matter, it seems to me that our charity event is a good example of how we help our neighbors. First of all, we want to support the Syrian refugees. We know that they suffer from the cold just like the Jews in the north of Israel. According to reports, 27 Syrian children froze to death, so the refugees need to be helped as soon as possible. We placed promotions on the Internet and in several local newspapers, and our volunteers turned to local residents for help, who responded to the call and donated a lot of things. Of course, people reacted differently, but it is worth noting that mostly the residents of Kiryat Tivon took our initiative with great enthusiasm, ”said the humanitarian assistance coordinator in Kiryat Tivone Yuval Arad.
“He does not know literacy, but tsifir insists.” A costly NATO program to train Afghan soldiers and policemen in basic reading, writing and counting skills was not able to achieve its goals. Such conclusions are contained in the report of the special inspector for reconstruction projects in Afghanistan, John Sopko, reports "Lenta.ru".
Only about half of the Afghan police and military personnel were able to acquire basic literacy skills. Now only 64% of soldiers and security personnel in the country have skills at the first grade level: employees can write their name and read individual words. 36 percent remained illiterate.
Also, according to the inspector, 21% of the military and police were able to get literacy skills at the third grade level: the ability to read and write paragraphs, and also add and subtract six-digit numbers.
Why did the American program fail? This suggests an assumption, we note with irony, that both teachers do not read and think well - but no. Americans are talking about something else.
Among the possible reasons for the failure of the program, the speakers mentioned the reluctance of Afghans to study, staff turnover, etc.
Lenta reminds that the training program for Afghan soldiers started in 2009 year. She took about 400 thousands of people. The program cost was 200 million dollars.
According to The Guardian, only about a third of the country's population can read and write (data from the Ministry of Education of Afghanistan). In the ranks of the Armed Forces and the police, the percentage of literate is even lower: mostly people from the poorest families agree on dangerous work.
Native Japanese islands. In the article titled “In new textbooks in Japan, the disputed islands will be called originally Japanese” (“NBC”, USA; the source of translation is "InoSMI") Arata Yamamoto and Henri Austin write that Japan risks even more annoying its neighbors, namely China and South Korea. The fact is that the government of the country announced a change in Japanese school textbooks: now they will indicate that the two ridges of islands, which are the source of territorial disputes, are an integral part of Japanese territory. Education Minister Hakubun Shimomura said that his department is changing teacher benefits so that students receive the "correct" information on Japanese history.
It's simple: the textbooks will say that disputes over the ownership of the Senkaku Islands in the South China Sea do not exist.
Mysterious story with the South Korean reactor. One of South Korea’s nuclear reactors automatically shut off this morning, receiving some unusual signal. He writes about it NEWSru.com with reference to the agency "Yonhap".
Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power said the reactor is now in a stable condition. The reason for the failure signal is being investigated.
Mexico: the legalization of the vigilantes. The Mexican government has concluded a peace agreement with the Vigilantes - people's volunteers fighting crime. Reports about it "Lenta.ru" with reference to the Associated Press.
Vigilants will become part of the rural defense forces, which is formed from volunteers to protect the villages. These units have almost disappeared, but now, due to the Vigilantes, their number may increase by 20 thousand people. And those vigilantam who will be sufficiently qualified, even allowed to serve in the police.
At the same time, the Vigilants will have to transfer to the Ministry of Defense a list of participants in public patrols. Public patrols will report to the army. In exchange, the Vigilants will be allowed to keep weapon: it will be registered as an army. The military promised to provide the public patrol with additional means of communication and assist in the implementation of operations. Will the authorities pay vigilants? No information available.
Lenta reminds that the agreement between the Vigilantes and the authorities will allow the government to resolve the crisis in the state of Michoacan, provoked by the confrontation between the public patrol and the Knights of the Knights Templar. The Vigilants began to push the gang of drug dealers out of the cities, not seeing action by the military and the police. In January, federal forces entered 2014 in Michoacán: they were thrown against both the drug cartel and the Vigilantes.
Therefore, the requirement for the Vigilantes to transfer to the Ministry of Defense a list of participants of public patrols, we add, looks suspicious: the government can throw public patrols in prisons right on the list. Indeed, recently the Vigilantes accused the police and the military of colluding with drug traffickers and of inaction.
Petition for dad. Italian animal defenders asked the Pope to stop releasing pigeons from the balcony of his residence in Rome, reports "Lenta.ru" with reference to the Associated Press.
The appeal of the organization ENPA to the Vatican is due to the fact that the other day wild birds pecked doves of peace released from the Apostolic Palace in St. Peter's Square. Defenders of animals noted that domesticated pigeons are not adapted to life in nature and can be easy prey for birds of prey - for example, for gulls nesting on the colonnade of St. Peter's Square.
According to ENPA, releasing pigeons in this place means “condemn them to inevitable death”.
Human rights activists will make a petition against this practice and collect signatures among supporters. They hope to attract the attention of Pope Francis.
Britain's chief electronic intelligence officer will resign. In the UK, Sir Ian Lobban, head of the British Electronic Intelligence Agency, Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ), will retire. According to the United Kingdom Foreign Office, he will leave his post at the end of the year.

Holocaust Remembrance Day: the incident in the "Holy Land of Poland". An anti-Israel demonstration was held at the hotel in Krakow, where the Israeli delegation arrived in Poland on the occasion of the International Holocaust Remembrance Day. Dozens of nationalists shouted slogans against the Israelis, waving red-and-white Polish national flags while writing NEWSru.com.
Nationalists met members of the Israeli delegation when they returned to the Parkin Hotel after visiting a memorial complex at the site of the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp in Auschwitz. About two dozen nationalists chanted anti-Israeli slogans and waved Polish flags. And some shouted after the Israelites: “Hezbollah! Hizbullah! ”
Some protesters had flags depicting the “Teutonic Cross”, which suggests that members of the Polish nationalist group Defenders of the Cross were participating in the rally.

The nationalists did not attempt to attack the Israelis.
Yanukovych was left without a government. Viktor Yanukovych accepted the resignation of Prime Minister Mykola Azarov and the government. The corresponding decree was published yesterday on the website of the head of state.
The current cabinet will continue to work until the formation of a new government. The Acting Prime Minister will be First Deputy Prime Minister Sergei Arbuzov.
In the application Azarov said about the resignation, notes Interfaxthat the decision was made by him personally in order to “create additional opportunities for a socio-political compromise, for the sake of a peaceful resolution of the conflict”. According to Azarov, the situation in Ukraine threatens the country's economic and social development. “Today the most important thing is to preserve the unity and integrity of Ukraine. It is much more important than any personal plans or ambitions. That is why I made this decision, ”Azarov wrote in a statement.
Azarov’s video address to the people with an explanation of the resignation was published on the politician’s website.
Interfax reminds that the complete resignation of the government was one of the main demands of the protesters.
Putin promised to lend to Ukraine. The Russia-EU summit ended in Brussels yesterday evening. Summing up the meeting, Vladimir Putin raised the topic of the further fate of Ukraine and economic relations with the new government, reports Interfax.
According to V. Putin, the credit granted to Ukraine and the reduction in the price of Russian gas will continue - no matter who is in power in Kiev.
"We proceed from the fact that the loan we were talking about and the gradual reduction in prices for energy, for gas, above all, are connected with the need and desire to support not a particular government, but the Ukrainian people," Putin said. press conference following the summit.
“We have an expression: when the pans fight, at the lackeys, the forelocks crack. That is, an ordinary citizen is always suffering. We would very much like the load on the ordinary citizen to be minimal, ”said the President of Russia.
As Interfax notes, later First Deputy Prime Minister Igor Shuvalov explained the conditions for maintaining gas benefits for Ukraine: they will be unchanged if the new government of Ukraine does not announce another agenda: “If the Ukrainian government, whatever it may be after its formation, announces about another agenda, about other priorities, then for us it will probably be a reason to revise the agreement. But within the framework of the agreements that exist, it is important for us to fulfill all our obligations. ”
Ukrainian shale gas? In November, 2013, Russia won a diplomatic victory, forcing Ukraine to abandon the Association Agreement with the EU, writes “The Huffington Post” (a source of short translation. - "Inopressa").
However, it is wrong to assume that Russia is completely commanding in relations with its neighbor in the former USSR. Russia agreed to provide Ukraine with financing for 15 billion dollars and reduce the gas price by one third, while Ukraine did not make any reciprocal concessions in the strategically important energy sector.
“Russia's long-term ambitions to control Ukrainian gas pipelines and its domestic energy production are still not satisfied,” writes journalist David Clark.
Disagreements appeared in January in the form of a complaint to Russia that the development of shale gas deposits in the east of Ukraine poses a threat to Russian water resources. The journalist finds here "a source of growing geopolitical contradictions between countries, whoever is in power in Kiev."
I wonder what Yanukovych wants? In fact, according to the author of the material, the president of Ukraine wants to apply the approach of Kazakhstan by forming a “multi-vector” foreign policy.
Transcarpathian glad. In Transcarpathia announced the creation of "people's rada", reports "Lenta.ru" with reference to Mukachevo.net. The decision was taken at the request of the opposition by the deputies of the regional council.
The “people's council” will include representatives of the public and political parties. In the near future, they will adopt a charter and begin to coordinate work with similar structures created by the opposition in other regions of Ukraine.
According to "RBC-Ukraine", "People's Rada" is going to announce distrust to the governor of the region Alexander Ledida.
55 deputies of the regional council voted for the creation of the "happy". According to URA-Inform, these were representatives of the Front for Change, UDAR and Batkivshchyna parties, as well as the United Center.
"Lenta" recalls that opposition supporters are engaged in the seizure of regional administrations and the creation of alternative government "people's glad" in the regions.

Avengers from the UPA are ready to clandestinely fight and regularly kill the police. Unknown persons on behalf of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army posted in the “Facebook” appeal, which claimed responsibility for the murder of policeman 24 in January in Kiev near the hostel “Berkut”, the channel "RT".
The appeal says that the killing of the law enforcement officer is “revenge for the killing of protesters, torture of prisoners and mockery of them”. The avengers accused the police of turning it into a “punitive apparatus of the occupation regime”.
The authors of the letter issued an ultimatum: they demanded the arrest of the entire top of the Ukrainian government. The police at the same time must lay down their arms, remove the insignia and go into the subordination of the Maidan.
If these requirements are not met, the UPA threatens to deploy the underground struggle and regularly kill the police.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine checks information published on the social network. This was reported to the press service of the department by ITAR-TASS.
In Kherson, a wounded policeman died. In Kherson, one of the policemen died, who was stabbed by members of the local Euromaidan, reports "Lenta.ru" with reference to the press service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine.
According to the ministry, in the evening of January 27 a group of activists attacked three law enforcement officers at the corner of Kulik and Mira streets. Two policemen were hospitalized in serious condition. One of them had to remove the spleen. In the second - penetrating wound of the chest. A third was stabbed in the knee and shoulder. Who exactly died is not specified.
The attackers were detained. It is known that they all study in one of the universities of Kherson. “As it turned out, all the detainees are active and radically-minded protesters,” the agency said.
American Klitschko. Under current Ukrainian legislation, a person who has the right of permanent residence in another country and the status of a tax resident in that country is not considered to be a resident of Ukraine. This provision may prevent Vitali Klitschko from taking part in the 2015 presidential election of the year. It turns out that Vitali Klitschko is a tax resident of the United States, as well as Germany.
According to Inpress.ua, the leader of "UDAR" is a tax resident of the United States of America: he submitted a tax return containing the United States Social Security Number (SSN).
This number is used by the US government to identify its citizens and residents and record their income. According to the submitted declaration, similar numbers are available and members of the Klitschko family - a wife and children. This writes the publication of "Law and Business."
According to the declaration, Vitaly earned almost 2012 million dollars in 12 year. In the budget of Ukraine, Mr. Klitschko did not pay a penny.
Deputy of the Verkhovna Rada of the "Batkivschiny" Vladimir Polochaninov admitted that Klitschko may have problems with the registration of a presidential candidate in connection with the adoption by the Parliament of changes to the Tax Code.
Lviv: opposition against opposition. Svoboda party activists tried to occupy the building of the Lviv regional administration, pushing out another group of opposition supporters. Local media write that the attackers used tear gas. According to some information, as a result of collisions there are wounded, it transmits ITAR-TASS.
This is the second attempt of supporters of "Freedom" to repel the regional administration from the protesters who occupied its 23 in January.
Simon Schuster wrote in "Time" about the gang "Common cause". In the article “Right-wing bandits seize a liberal protest in Ukraine” (“Time,” the United States; the source of translation is "InoSMI") Simon Shuster notes that the pro-European protests in Kiev have taken a “bad turn”: right-wing groups are gaining strength. Quote:
The gang, calling itself "Spilna Right," or "Common Cause," is one of about ten dubious organizations fighting for a place under the sun, if not for frank leadership, in an uprising against President Viktor Yanukovych. Among these groups are right-wing radicals, football hooligans, veterans, and companies swinging bits of thugs. To the chagrin of the more recognized opposition type of world boxing champion Vitali Klitschko, they became the most striking phenomenon of this revolution. Anyone who will be involved in resolving the Ukrainian political crisis will most likely take into account the role of these groups. However, they are becoming increasingly difficult to control. ”
The leader of the "General Affairs" Alexander Danilyuk, a lawyer, formulated a strategy: to capture as many government buildings as possible. “We must paralyze the work of this corrupt dictatorship,” he told Mr. Schuster at the seized ministry after midnight on Sunday.
And this was his third conquest. 24 January his fighters seized the Ministry of Agriculture. The next day, The Common Cause briefly seized the Ministry of Energy, but left it a few hours later. The next night, the “trophy” of Danyluk was the Ministry of Justice.
“We need justice in Ukraine, and we need peace,” said Mr. Danyluk. - And now, unfortunately, our president is a threat to justice and peace. Therefore, there is only one way to stop the violence in Ukraine and put an end to this very dangerous situation for Europe. ” The method is: "Immediate and unconditional surrender of the state."
This man’s demand leaves no room for negotiation.
What kind of radicals are ready to start a war against the government of Ukraine? Schuster writes:
“The younger guys wanted to fill the floor with gasoline and burn (the troops) alive,” says Alexei Tsybko, one of the “Afghans” who participated in the siege. However, after hours of confrontation, the protesters formed a corridor and allowed the military to leave peacefully. Then the building was turned into another revolutionary bastion with a dining room, sleeping places and a headquarters for the “Afghans” on the second floor. In an improvised cafe in the basement, Tsibko told me that “Afghans” are preparing deadly weapons - in case the protests turn into a civil war. “The battle is already underway,” he says. - If the police apply at least one cartridge against our guys, we have something to say. Believe me, not just a couple of hundred people will die. ”
"Helpless and cut off from reality." According to the German newspaper Die Zeit, with the beginning of the Kiev protests, the site of the publication was subjected to a suspicious invasion of "clearly pro-Russian and anti-Western" commentators. And the similar situation develops not for the first time, the newspaper complains. He writes about it "RT".
As soon as it comes to Russia and related topics, commentators begin to criticize biased media coverage. In the comments section there are two diametrically opposite trends. And pro-Russian sentiments outweigh the critical mood of the minority: the latter is forced to defend itself.
The editors of Die Zeit are trying to cut off propaganda comments aimed at neutralizing the opposite opinion.
One commentator noted that "some online editors, like Spiegel Online and, apparently, Zeit.de, have become helpless and divorced from reality." “Is it really so hard to believe that an anti-Western audience could have formed in Germany? Or, maybe, not anti-Western, but simply objective, not similar to that which commentators of “Spiegel Online” already call the “new offensive against Russia”. Understand me correctly: there is something to criticize in Russia, but this does not mean that this country should be harassed in the media, ”says the user under the nickname Arthvader3.
Joe Biden gave advice to Yanukovych. The United States considers the resignation of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine and the removal of January 16 laws by Rada and calling for the formation of a pro-European government in the country, according to the White House, following the second telephone conversation in recent days between US Vice President Joe Biden and President of Ukraine Viktor Yanukovich. He writes about it correspondent RIA "Novosti" Alexey Bogdanovsky.

Biden urged Yanukovych to work with the opposition to seek a peaceful resolution of the confrontation. “This includes an amnesty law and (creation) of a new government that can achieve political unity, earn the trust of the Ukrainian people and lead Ukraine in the European direction, strengthening democratic institutions and carrying out reforms necessary for economic prosperity,” summed up in the White House.
Obama about the Maidan. Speaking with an annual message to Congress, the US president spoke for the first time about the situation in Ukraine. This writes Sergey Semakov (Utro.ru).
He said that he supported the Ukrainian people in their desire to peacefully express their protest: “We stand for the fact that everyone has the right to freely express his opinion and state his position on the future of the country,” he said, “Bi-bi-si” .
Riots and rallies on the streets of Ukrainian cities, according to Obama, talk about the development of democratic freedoms in the country. Obama compared Ukraine with Myanmar and Tunisia itself: the United States actively supports the building of democracy there.
Coca-Cola is not for gays. Coca-Cola's sponsorship of the Sochi Olympic Games has come under a wave of criticism. It turns out that the word "gay" is not available for the function "Share a Coke" ("Share Coke"). This is what the “Independent” writes about (the source of the short translation is "Inopressa").
The popular campaign "Share a Coke" has opened the opportunity for everyone to write their name on the bank. But the trouble is: when you try to print the word “Gay”, the inscription pops up: “Oops. Let's pretend you didn't write this. Please enter another name. ”
“Obviously, this is just an accidental omission, which was the result of an unsuccessful attempt by one of the bored programmers to deal with foul language, but the ban on the word“ gay ”was obtained at the most unsuccessful moment for the company,” writes article author Christopher Hooton.
Well, let's add on my own, now gays have no choice but to boycott Coca-Cola - in much the same way as they recently boycotted Stolichnaya vodka.
There are also unverified rumors on the Internet that Russian programmers work for Coca-Cola, who are cool-footed to lovers of same-sex relationships.
By the way, there is nothing unsuccessful in such a move: no matter how cool you are, but gay people in society are a minority. And who is Coca-Cola targeting its products to? That's right: on the mass market segments.
Guilty hacker. Russian citizen Alexander Panin, who was extradited to the United States from the Dominican Republic last summer on charges of cyber fraud, pleaded guilty in a conspiracy to commit fraud using electronic communications, reports RIA News" with reference to the Associated Press.

Play for the NSA. The article “Intelligence Services Intercept Information Flows from Smartphone Applications” by James Glenz, Jeff Larson and Andrew W. Lehren (“The New York Times”; the source of short translation is "Inopressa") write that while the user plays in “Angry Birds”, spies can intercept his personal data: location, age, gender. The NSA and its British counterpart are trying to exploit the side effect of modern telecommunications, explain the journalists.
According to classified documents that have not been published before, one of the most valuable intelligence tools is “leaky applications” - programs that inadvertently disclose information (smartphone identification code or where the user visited on a particular day).
“According to the documents provided by Edward Snowden, the NSA and the British Government Communications Center for 2007 have worked together on how to organize the collection and storage of data coming from dozens of applications for smartphones. Over the past period, departments exchanged recipes on how to fix location and plan data when a user visits Google Maps, as well as methods for collecting address books, lists of friends, phone call logs and geographic data included in photos, when a person places a post through mobile versions of Facebook, Flickr, LinkedIn, Twitter and other Internet services, ”the article says.
“The enthusiasm of a certain NSA analyst is felt in the enthusiastic title“ Golden Nugget! ”, Which was received by one of the slides for the top-secret report from 2010, where“ iPhones ”and Android phones are called very rich resources,” the authors indicate.
Spy on Obama. In the interview "RT" Bolivian president expressed his attitude towards mass surveillance of the United States. According to Evo Morales, for the common good, it would be worth keeping an eye on Obama.
According to him, to ensure security in the world, it is necessary to listen to the conversations of Barack Obama: What kind of security can the US guarantee after NATO and the Blue Helmets have deployed their troops in so many countries and deployed so many of their military bases? That's why I say that security throughout the world can be achieved if you spy on Barack Obama himself. ”
With a knife at the cops. The culprit of the shooting that occurred yesterday in the school of the American state of Hawaii, was 17-year-old teenager, who attacked with a knife on the police, reports "Voice of Russia" with reference to ITAR-TASS.
As a result of the attack, two police officers were slightly injured. The officers fired warning shots. It is also reported that the teenager was injured brush.

The guards spotted a suspicious stranger in the hallway of the school and called the police. School students were ordered to stay in the classroom for one and a half hours, and then all of them and the staff were evacuated.
Obama as a fighter against inequality and poverty. The President of the United States, in an annual speech before the Congress "On the situation in the country", told how in 2014 he would fight against poverty and inequality. Reports about it correspondent RIA "Novosti" Alexey Bogdanovsky.
From now on, Obama, in the absence of cooperation from the Congress, will act using his powers and signing presidential decrees. He stated: “America does not stand still, and I will not do that either. Therefore, whenever and wherever I can, without (adopting) legislation, take steps to improve opportunities for more American families, I am going to do that. ”
Obama is about to raise the minimum hourly wage for federal contract workers to 10,1 dollars. He also intends to seek from the Congress a similar increase in other industries where the authority of the president to establish the minimum wage is not enough.
The president will sign a decree creating basic savings accounts that will be guaranteed by the US government and will allow many Americans to start saving for the first time for retirement.
Steven Seagal: "Russia is our friend." In an interview with Fox News, an American actor asked what advice he could give to Barack Obama in order to improve relations with Russia, replied: "My advice to Obama would be this: it is extremely important to make Russia our ally." This tells "RT".
According to Segal, Russia is "a very strong country." “I believe that Russia is our friend. And it seems to me that the only way for us to survive, not to be “swallowed up” by other superpowers or not to suffer damage, is to become Russia's best friend, ”the actor believes.
S. Segal is sure: the Russians should be close allies of the United States. “And I think they would like to be our main ally. My advice to the President of the United States: please listen to these words, because I know that Russia is open to honest, wonderful, strong and sincere relations. And our countries can really help each other, ”the actor said.
He dreams of tundra and Putin. “When we fly over the Siberian tundra in a luxurious private jet, Vladimir Putin tells me:“ I don't often talk to journalists, but I want to tell you about my recent conversation with Bashar, ”writes The Guardian correspondent. translation - "Inopressa").
Walker is happy with the sensation, but ... he wakes up immediately.
This journalist often sees Putin in a dream. The article notes that in these dreams the President of Russia is always "fully dressed and expresses his opinion on matters of national importance."
It turns out that the correspondent’s dream came from his strong desire to meet with Putin. After all, “it’s damn hard to get access to Putin.”
For six years as a foreign correspondent in Moscow, Walker had no close meetings with Putin. He only participated in press conferences at which more than a thousand journalists are present.
Not one Mr. Walker dreams of Putin.
According to the journalist, Putin dreams of almost all foreign correspondents in Russia. So Veronica Dorman said: “I once dreamed that Putin had a party to teach us how to drink vodka.” A journalist and writer Marina Akhmedova told Walker that Putin once dreamed of her in a tail coat flying a goose. Then she saw Putin on a hang-glider on TV, for which Siberian Cranes flew.
Well, let us add on our own, while the mass western philistine dreams of Putin ruling the United States instead of Obama, Britain instead of Cameron, and France instead of Hollande, Western journalists have been waiting for years for the Kremlin master to say a word to them. Vladimir Vladimirovich has a propaganda gingerbread in his pocket, which he doesn’t suspect ...
