There, another jolt to the global consciousness.
Not the first, not the last, repeated in sly
indirect notices, and on occasion brought out
anew in harsh measure. The man who might
teach Machiavelli the dark art of instilling
unease and a haunting fear in the world body
not merely restricted to Eastern Europe has yet
again issued that sobering reminder of a well
stocked arsenal of deadly nuclear weapons. His
to dangle dangerously before the incredulous
eyes of disbelieving world leaders. The message
simple enough. They will be used should his
country's security ever be endangered. No one
tampers with the sovereign agency of Russia.
The sovereign autonomy and security of Russia's
neighbours on the other hand are Vladimir Putin's
for the taking and his territorial ambitions exceed
a mere few Baltic nations; he pines for the glory
of a time now past when tentacled satellites
cringed whenever the Kremlin flexed its power.
