M1.618 (OP) User ID: 57277453 Canada 07/14/2014 08:16 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Whatever Putin does in Ukraine, it will be hard for the U.S. administration to get the EU, and some of its individual members, on board for a broadside against Russia, in part because of Rosneft's successful European deal making. Realistically, the West has a better chance of making a cynical deal with Putin, handing him some control over Ukraine, than of forcing him to stop destabilizing the neighboring country. The only reason such a deal has not been made so far is Washington's unwillingness to admit that it cannot get Europe to toe the line. [link to www.bloombergview.com] wmMmw |
