Good point. It's different when it's "them".
She probably knows that Putin doesn't much care about a third term, he'll be annointed as Tsar Vladimir I
Quote:"The centralization of state power in the presidency at the expense of countervailing institutions like the Duma (parliament lower house) or an independent judiciary is clearly very worrying. The absence of an independent media on the electronic side is clearly very worrying," she(rice) added."
out of the mouths of babes...
well, actually... "babe" doesn't really apply in this case
I read that quote, Don'tTread, and thought for a minute there she was talking about the situation in the USA. "Centralization of state power in the presidency at the expense of countervailing institutions like [the legislative branch]or an independent judiciary" seems like a perfect description of what's been happening in Washington, DC over the past five years now.
