Please tell them, some people here are jokers.

justwise:

Some posters here are just kids, tell me this: In his previous presidential terms what did he stop the 'west' from doing? Iraq war? Afghanistan? Even when he was at the background calling the shot as prime-minister did he stop Libyan intervention? What exactly do some of think Putin will do?

Medvedev not Putin, probably listened to people like you who felt Libyans were crying for help, that could explain why they abstained,
after "helping" Libya, its time to "help" Syria, next time when you ask for help remember what Huntington said "It's immoral for America to send their troops to other countries to stop them from killing themselves except in pursuit of its national interest"  if he cannot stop them everywhere, he can stop them from balkanizing his country, I mean he can stop them from helping him and his  country,

As for copy copy, dont forget that the only chance of getting to International space Station rests on SOYUZ

Medvedev was just a figure head, Putin run the show from background, some of you are still dancing around in vein, what has Putin stops the west from doing during his previous two terms as a president?

I will be so happy if the west stay far away from Syria, let see what will happen to Russia's interest in that country. One thing is sure, Syria will not be the same again and Russia and China will kiss good by to their interests in Syria at the end.

Gerrard95, it is very clear that you mistake the Syria issue with the Arab spring in North Africa and the Middle East. I want you to have a clear picture of what is going on in Syria. The situation in Syria is not same with the Libian, Egyptian, Tunisian and Yamenese issues. While in these places I mentioned, you have popular protests demanding for reforms or regime change, you have in Syria armed group backed by Western powers Killing both civilians and members of Syrian Government Forces.
Assad is an independent minded leader who strongly believe in resistance as a means of preserving the integrity and resources of his people. This position does not go down well with the US and her allies and they now resorted to arming a group that are made up of defected Syrian and mercenaries to create the Libian-like situation in Syria so that NATO would give the Libian-like response in Syria.
Libians protested against Kaddafi while Syrians are rallying around Assad. You can now see why Russia and China vetoed against the resolution on Syria.
Don’t be deceived by the Western rhetoric. How have the so-called defenders of human rights responded Bahraini situation? They are busy selling arms to the government to suppress and kill it’s own people. And how have they responded to the agitation in Yamen. By supporting the killing, and when saw the determination of the Yamenese, they decided to ease the tension with a single candidate elections- So much for democracy, Gerrard.
Those pretending to fight for human rights in Syrian are blind to the crackdown and killings in Saudi Arabia. Gerrard, please, do not take the facial values of what the Americans and her Western allies tell you. Try always to look deeper.

The same conspiracy theory we heard from many of you here during Libyan war, yes lets blame NATO and the west, the blame game goes on.

America is reluctant to go to Syria. If they want to go to Syria, China/Russia can never stop them.

But they learnt a lesson in Libya that no mata how they help them, they are still anti-western. That is why they are feeling relunctant to wade in.
Forget democracy or not. Al qaeda is sponsoring Yemeni revolt. Al qaida is a US enemy. America will neva allow al qaida to gain ground anywhere. Husni Mubarak of Egypt was an American friend, yet America shown him the way out.

The international community should expect the return of the Cold War era. Putin is a 'Chess player' who craftily carved a new Russia out of the post Soviet era of disarray in which he sought to reestablish a culture of firm and high-handed identity not far from the the Stalin era. The main similarity with the soviet era would come from his attempt to portray Russia as an 'equal' of the West, a prospect admired by hardline communists who have been forced to accept democratic changes but still dream of the superpower status of yester-years. We are likely to see a stronger alliance between Russia and China, to counter the US and its European NATO allies. With China's strong economic prospect, and a proclivity towards increased defence spending, coupled with the Same prospect from Russia, the world is in for a period of intrigues and suspense. And, with unpredictable Iran, Syria and others in the Middle East aligning with this new power-block, while on the other hand, as the Israelis continues to 'cry out' to the US and allies that they are facing extermination from a hostile Arab world, Putin's Russia is certainly going to make headlines for either slowing down or hastening humankind's movement towards World War III. We hope pride won't blind these key players from making vital compromises for a more humble and peaceful world.

u want to know d turth about about international affairs, read www.rt.com , forget all dis cnn and bbc shits

As for IKANGA,i assume justwise has answered you already. Am sure you like the way syrians(i even like it sef,let them finish themselves). Bt one thing is that dos oriental mumùs interest won't last again,once syria ìs going towards democratic leadership.
What i wil people like you nd mekky to note nd look at is apart from syria nd iran-hu else in the ME is aligned to dos oriental old-cargoes? There's on going reforms in bahrain-the govt sumhow has even been indicted in the killings. Can same be said for iran nd syria? Was it the same Assad hu studied in the UK? if he is to leave by force,he would have been pushed out. It seems you don't who is father was.
As for the space vouyage-the Americans to tell you r fed up with those russians. E spoil 2dai,damage tomorrow. Never original,Always fake.
One thing people tend to forget is no matter how you please arabs,they wil stil hate you. It is like the farmer nd hs son nd the donkey.
The father lets the son climbs the donkey-people mocked at the man for letting hs son enjoy nd despise the son for letting hs father suffering.
The son cüms down nd walk-the yab the man for letting the son suffer nd hm enjoy.
They both climb on top the donkey-they r accused of being cruel to the donkey.
Now my question is "What should the man nd hs son do that people(ds case russia) won't talk or critize bowt?"
They entered lybia when they were called-you accuse them.
Now they say they won't enter syria,yet-you still accuse them again.
HABA!!!

nato and allied are invited.

@LEXYLOV;
'nato and allies are invited'; to do what? To attend the swearing-in ceremony of Mr. Putin? Speak out.

Putin's declarations came long before the votes were actually counted.

Russia doesnt even have a well formed military. China is a baby. They dont know what war is.
Let America give them toturial war 101. America fights war everyday. America weapon system is globally stationed, even closed to Russia. Russia should just melo. And wait for EU to counter America.

China has so many neigbors to worry about. Japan is facing nuclear degradation. Let japan finish is errors. Still the third largest market.

India is there. No breathing space for China.

fine US has her own weaknesses, but has anybody thought of what the Russians would do if they had been the world leader?

I am happy.

NONSENSE country.

ISLAMRULES - AND IT SURELY DOES IN SHA ALLAHU!
But why do u say such despecable thing? China dat pocket india in d 60s war & dazed japan to became d 2nd richest nation on earth doesn't see these two duos as any threat. China has her eyes fixed in d future and how disciplined is china on that pursuit to greatness!

But to those of u who say russia is copy copy - remember that russia invaded and occupied afghanistan all alone and installed her puppet (later to be hanged by d mujahiddin) but it kept dat country for more than a decade all by herself. How about america d powerful? see d great could not invade alone but had to come with many coun3s & all have been bleeding since 2001! Don't giv credit when it is not deserved unless u want to end up being an aimless fan.

Generally, elections are rarely fair not to even talk of Russia!
The winner has been known even years ahead.

ikanya: Vladimir Putin's return is a big plus and a great positive for the world. Putin has been a big figure checkmating the American and Western imperialist hegemony. In my thinking, Putin must have worked very hard to forge the RUSSIA+CHINA ties in the UN Security Council. This China-Russia alliance has, as could be seen at the moment, become an affront to the oligarchic powers, America's arrogance, the evil mechanization and military diplomacy of the US and her Western allies. To the West, Putin is "a world terrorist". Time has come now for the Western World to put a stop to their terrorist acts and Putin has championed that fight.

What fight? The guy himself is no better. Could even be worse. The China-Russian alliance is nothing but temporary. Just watch.
