Medvedev has been very quiet ever since the American excursion fiasco. But he has made a very good trip to Finland and he looks like he got his stride back. I have been very glad to see that Medvedev’s trip to Finland was good. He has discovered that close to home is where the heart is…
Today Medvedev did what is expected from a President of Russia…
“Law enforcement and security agencies and [energy] companies, as well as the government, must do all they can to make sure that such things do not happen again. If they do, none of the law enforcement, security and energy company chiefs will keep their jobs. All of them will be sacked,” Medvedev said.
