Russia Gives The US Ultimatum
The Russian Federation has given the United States an ultimatum. It must choose between Georgia and Russia. The American answer was not long in coming. Poland and the United States reached an agreement Thursday to base American missile interceptors in Poland, the prime minister said, going ahead with a plan that has angered Russia and threatened to escalate tensions with the region's communist-era master.A mutual defense pact between Poland and America? This will definitely alter the correlation of forces between Russia and America. The ring is tightening. Russia's behavior in Georgia has definitely altered the world scene. Not to Russia's advantage. Had they kept their agreement to pull out of Georgia I believe this deal wouldn't have happened. Russia has definitely overplayed its hand. H/T Instapundit.
