The Path of Goodness

Abstract

The Russian troika is drifting ever farther from west to east. Slowly but surely, the few remaining points of contact with Europe are being lost. Relations with the U.S. are taking a paradoxical turn: the public, high-profile diplomacy of the presidential administration – which seems to be striving to reach pragmatic compromises with Russia – is coupled with the quiet hostility of Congress and the business establishment, which, on the contrary, are determined to continue opposing our country’s rise by any means at their disposal.
