Russian Diplomacy

By

Putin doesn’t mince his words about the latest falling out with Britain:

They should get their heads examined rather than tell us to change our constitution.

I think Putin is right in that the UK government does not extradite a suspect to Russia when Russia demands, but they want a suspect to be sent to the UK. Had it been the US they would have extradited a suspect in no time.
The UK can’t always have it’s own way of dealing on this type of matters; they need to work together.
….It is nice to see you cite the BBC as a your source Paul.

Yes but any commenting on this is like balancing a watermelon on chopsticks as the information in the public realm on this matter will have very little similarity to what is actually happening behind the scenes.

Is that a whole watermelon or a section of watermelon?

Because I would have thought that a couple of well-placed chopsticks, driven firmly into the fleshy center, could quite easily support a half, or more, of watermelon.

The two best places I have eaten watermelon are as follows:

1. On a sunny day by the river in Cosquin, Argentina

2. Breakfast at the JW Marriott Bangkok with a very dry mouth after a night’s devilry in the area around pat pong market
