WTO in the World…
One of the last vestiges of the reset that was instigated between Russia and the US has been pruned from the tree. The acquisition into the WTO by Russia has become a mute dangling carrot in front of Russia, now that Putin is starting to retake the helm of the ship again…
In case no one was listening. Several months ago Putin made it clear that WTO was not going to happen unless big concessions were made for the agricultural sector and car production sector. He also said that Russia will not follow WTO rules until WTO acceptance. Other words, Russia will not play the game until the rules are fair for both sides…
Yesterday the world finally realized what has been obvious for months. Medvedev made this statement:
“If we are told that we are not fit for it (WTO) for some reason, we can live without it. This is absolutely true and I am absolutely sincere,” Medvedev said.
“Everybody, and our partners in the WTO accession process should understand that our joining is not only in Russia’s interests. It is in the interests of various businesses, foreign businesses … for reasonable regulation of international trade flows. It is a two-way street,” Medvedev said.
Well thank you Medvedev! It is time that you got this destructive symbol of world stupidity out of your sights. The Western world has dangled that carrot in your eyes since you became president and used it to try to manipulate you ever since…
So now in Russia the Western wannabe’s and the so called Western experts have taken up spouting about how terrible it is that Russia has chosen to stand up and ignore the dangling carrot, instead of crawling like a child to get her treat…
All you have to do is look around you and see that Russia has shifted her gears and followed a different path. What with the strengthening of ties with Iran, North Korea, Vietnam and many others. It is clear that the Western escapades of destroying Libya and the Western continuation of lies on all subjects has really caused a turn around in the thinking’s of Russia and China…
I have people tell me that the Reset is alive and well. I have people tell me that Russia needs the West more than the West needs Russia…
I am here to tell you that the Reset died a long time ago and Russia might have backed herself into a corner in the past of needing the Western world, but Russia is working real hard to get out from under that tether of hell…
Russia can do just fine and will survive without the West and Putin knows this. That is why Putin has many many stipulations on the condition of entry into the WTO…
