Western Europe And US Influence

I am a selfish person.

"In order to underline their solidarity with the Georgian president, the presidents of EU member-states Poland, Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia travelled to Tbilisi on Tuesday, joining President Viktor Yushchenko of Ukraine, who was already in the country. Since the break-up of the Soviet Union in 1991, all of these countries have established close relations with Washington. The concerted action to prop up Saakashvili was a clear signal of solidarity with the Bush administration."

So Poland, Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia and Ukraine, are sattellite countries of US at the moment?

If this is true; then I question the reason for this coming from UK.

"The portrayal of Russia as the aggressor was supported by British Foreign Secretary David Miliband, who declared at the Brussels EU meeting that the European Union should reassess its relations with Russia following the latter’s “aggressive” actions in Georgia."

Why is he sucking up? It can't be a Brown idea? As he is trying to get out the Blair shite. Oh well you can only wonder about it!

And then the man puts his frigging foot in it:

"Echoing the Cold War rhetoric being employed by the US, Miliband continued: “The aggressive Russian force beyond South Ossetian borders has been something that really shocked many people... The sight of Russian tanks in Gori, Russian tanks in Senaki, the Russian blockade of the Georgian port of Poti is a chilling reminder of times that I think we had hoped had gone by.”"

A bit more information came from this:

"It’s also interesting to see the presidents of Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia standing with the Georgian president. They all went to Georgia. I just came back from Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, and I was very struck by, when asking why these countries had joined with the US in invading Iraq, albeit their forces very small in number but both in Iraq and Afghanistan, people repeatedly said, “We have to do this, because we need the US support against Russia.” They’re still very afraid of a Russian occupation. They don’t forget the sixty years."

Shhhh...a thought came to my puny mind; say if we get Russia to join Europe? Then what? Can you see what will happen. Most of the war mongering shite will have to shut the fuck up init? And then I will be less financially as the MIC in UK will go bankcrupt? Oh Oh ......
