Interactive: The NATO Expansion

I do not support the actions of my government toward Russia, since the fall of Gorbachev. We have completely mismanaged it. We should have made a true and lasting peace and partnership, and invited you into the alliance first, then the other nations. NATO has always been large enough to allow states in that had political differences. (Greece/Turkey, one example Germany and the rest of humnaity, another...)
Clinton didn't care, and Bush has seen Gazprom as a threat to his oil empire.
They tried to start a mess in the Caucusus to give a failing poitical system a kick start. Now they are accusing my party, which has undergone dramatic change, of being anti-american.
If you could seperate the cold war figures, and their writing from today, it will allow us a clean slate upon which to begin. I do not ask you to forgive us, as we have not reconciled yet our mistakes.
Personally, I am very sorry. I hope to help turn a page in relations. Unlike many political systems, here discredited persons are still published, and allowed to continue in the process. It does not mean they will shape policy. It means they can advise.
When they do not get their way, they skulk off and write another book.
One political party here wants to make you a complete strategic cripple and continue the current policies.
The other political party is simply afraid of the issue being used against them.

you have forgotten 200 years of "yellow yoke" and swweedes... don't forget this...ok.

All exact & precise, just the poles tried to submit Russia in 16/17° century (dead of Ivan the Terrible, troubled times, false Dimitries, 1614 -see movie for details-, etc.) .

You know, when russians come in SO Sakashvili said they had some 1000 tanks when the wole 58th russian arny had 600 tanks omly . Then said that RUSSIANS ponded tzinvali . Then say that a 95% intact 30.000 men army run from Tzkinvali to Tbilisi in less than 5 days, leaving Gori in the process without any valuable resistence, only to "protect the capital" from an armour brigade and some paratroopers unit (since a brigade is about 4000 men and you say 2000 russian soldier have died in the war, let's say a HALF armour brigade and some paratroopers' unit)...Can you say "credibility"...

You know, when Russian come in SO, georgians say thet had some 2000 tanks, while the whole 58th russian army had 600 tanks only . Then georgians say that RUSSIAN pounded Tzkinvali . Now you say that a 95% untouched 30.000 men army has run from Tzkinvali to Tbilisi without opposing any valuable resistence to an armour brigade and some paratroopers' units (let alone their "awful" casualties)...can you say "credibility" ?

I think that Saakishvili is still kept in power by USA only to give independence to Abhkazia and Osetia. Ossetia and Abhkazia never will return back to country, which is keeping maniac in power. And Georgia must forget about those territories, which is good thing for USA, because Georgians after they will loose Adjaria to Turkey and Kvemo-Kartli to Azerbaijan can forget about Georgian empire and become little non aggressive country, which is not requireing any protection.

Sorry, David77 and renegade1979.
Are you saying that of American media is source of Russian propaganda because all of them are saying only about 84 Russian soldiers killed ? Could you point to independent and RELIABLE recourse, where I can find confirmation for this. Not the little newspapers, paid by Aspect Consulting, PR company which was spreading lie under contract with Saakashvili.
Second point is about army. If running to capital without any resistance, leaving civilians unprotected, it means that this army exist only on paper.
