RA in the Washington Times: A Cautionary Tale
Robert Amsterdam has a new opinion article running in the Washington Times today:
A cautionary tale By Robert Amsterdam January 25, 2008 Some may look into his eyes and see the soul of democrat, and others may see something far more sinister. Regardless of their general impression of President Vladimir Putin as an individual, each U.S. presidential candidate needs to make a careful reckoning of the enormous foreign policy challenge posed by Russia. Each must come forward with innovative proposals to constructively engage the former Cold War adversary on everything from terrorism and nuclear proliferation to basic adherence to the rule of law and human rights. So far, this wide field of candidates remarkably has been disappointing and unspecific on Russian policy with advisors cautioning to speak only about foreign policy issues like Iraq and Iran.
