Russia - Solzhenitsyn Tours Russia
Writer Alexander Solzhenitsyn, back in Russia after 20 years
exile, set off on a month-long odyssey across the breadth of his
homeland on Wednesday (1/6). Solzhenitsyn, 75, waved to reporters
as his train left the Far Eastern port of Vladivostok, where he
has stayed since returning to Russia from the United States last
Friday. In a parting comment, Solzhenitsyn said he was in no hurry
to meet Russian leaders because he needs time to gather views from
ordinary people. He says he is not seeking public office in his
rediscovered homeland, but wants to influence the course of
Russia's cultural and spiritual development. Earlier, the Nobel
Prize winning author met with university students and the
Vladivostok intellegentsia. After his two-month long train trip,
Solzhenitzyn will travel to Moscow. A dacha is being built for him
outside the city.

STORYLINE:
One of Russia''s leading contemporary artists, Zurab Tsereteli, has unveiled a new and potentially controversial statue of the Russian President, Vladimir Putin.
The president is depicted barefoot, his hands on hips and wearing a judo outfit, reflecting one of Putin''s favorite pastimes.
But it is the statue''s facial expression, with large bulging eyes, that could cause a sensitive Kremlin to react badly.
Tsereteli however said on Thursday that he was portraying a side of Putin which stands firm.
Putin''s opinion of the sculpture is not yet known.
The two-and-a-half metre high sculpture of Putin is to form part of a series of images of famous people that Tsereteli has been working for the past four years.
For the time being, the statue will be housed in Tsereteli''s personal museum in Moscow.
The sculpture joins an increasing number of artistic images of Putin, which often gives rise to talk about the emerging cult of his personality.
Tsereteli is President of the Russian Academy of Arts and his work is well known in Russia and abroad.
In the past 10 years he''s been behind a number of highly publicised projects in the Russian capital, including an enormous statue of Peter the Great on the banks of the Moskva river and parts of the Okhotny Ryad shopping centre.

Kiselev and Putin Both Agree! No Point in Wasting Time Talking to President Poroshenko Anymore
Subscribe to Vesti News
Dmitry Kiselev: Poroshenko is now complaining about not being able to get in touch with Putin in Kremlin. But I believe Putin has nothing to talk about with Poroshenko. There's no point in wasting time because Poroshenko is a liar, he's insidious and he doesn't stand by his word. And quite often he's simply drunk.

Why is Russia a threat to world peace?
Since Russia's invasion of Crimea and eastern Ukraine last year, President Putin has continued to have a belligerent and threatening stance. Although the West has imposed punishing economic sanctions on Russia, Putin shows no signs of removing his military presence from the Donbas region of Ukraine. Instead, he has adopted a decidedly provocative stance towards the West. In recent months, Moscow has boasted about Russia’s nuclear weapons capabilities and has mounted provocative military incursions into NATO airspace.
Russia now poses a serious threat to the existing European security order, which Moscow no longer recognises. The conflict between Russia and Ukraine has shattered the comfortable belief that the use of force among leading European powers had been banished.
There is growing anxiety, especially in the Baltic countries and Scandinavia, about the dangers of further Russian military provocations. There is a growing realisation that Moscow’s new military strategy relies on the early recourse to tactical nuclear weapons in the event that it has to defend what it defines as its sovereign territory against a superior conventional military force.
Serious questions surround the issue of whether any NATO country, including Germany, would have the fortitude to defy Russia militarily. Although Russia’s military forces are still not comparable with those of the former Soviet Union, there is little doubt that Moscow can now use decisive military force in what it terms the near abroad.
Little of this seems to be understood in Canberra, where we have seriously rundown our Russian analytical capabilities. Our political leaders seem to be of the view that Russia is a weak country that is far away and of no strategic consequence. That is a seriously mistaken view in my opinion and I will seek to demonstrate that there are significant Australian strategic interests at risk here.

He studied the former Soviet Union for over 20 years both as a senior intelligence officer and ANU academic. His book the Soviet Union – the Incomplete Superpower was published by the International Institute for Strategic Studies, London in 1986, reprinted 1987 and second edition 1988.
