Reuters - Prime Minister Vladimir Putin accused the United States on Thursday of stirring up protests against his 12-year rule and said foreign countries were spending hundreds of millions of dollars to influence Russian elections.
Oh, that's probably why Putin only got 99,5% of the votes in Checheny, if the foreign agressors hadn't messed up the election there Putin would have had 100%.. :firedevi:
If I heard correctly on the news, Putin was starting the old Soviet trick of sending "Bear" bombers into British airspace, then timing the RAF reaction time to intercept.
