He has harassed or shut down non-governmental organisations, put opposition leaders on trial and had pop-star protesters jailed on flimsy charges. Those who prefer business to politics often favour engagement with such regimes and oppose any strident criticism, on the basis that nothing is ever likely to change. Yet recent experience in places as far apart as the Arab world and Myanmar argues against such pessimism. One day change will come to Russia--as it will to Syria. When that happens, among the losers will be those who appeased or backed the dictators. It is far better for Mr Obama to identify himself strongly with those who embrace the West's values, in Russia as everywhere else. Opini Anda Klik untuk menuliskan opini Anda tentang koleksi ini!
