Re: [A-List] Kagarlitsky-Green with NATO envy
Well, Kagarlitsky continues his fake left rants and misinformation in
accord with his work for US intel in the past. I mean who is this guy
kidding? "Russia condemns...Nato expansion but it never explains
the...threats that could result from it." Does Kagarklitsky not read the
newspapers, watch CNN? Putin has given several speeches which set out
exactly the threat from Nato in detail. But Kagarlitsky, like the other
faux left right-wingers at the Moscow Times chooses to lie to his audience
and to attack Putin instead of Nato which is the real threat to Russia.
But of course he doesnt want Russians to remember what Nato did in
Yugoslavia or is doing in Afghanistan and elsewhere. No justfiied Russian
fear of Nato is put down to "jealousy"!
The man gets more stupid with everything he writes.
