PS When discussing Soviet/Russian policies we tend to focus on irrelevant crap, like which ruler is "liberal"/"democratic" (no one). But the oil prices are a much more important factor behind Kremlin's policy.

Expensive oil -> Aggressive
Cheap oil -> Docile

Now it's expensive

Das ist in Gänze ein lesenswerter Fred.
