Do World Leaders Like A Good Sing Along? Of Course They Do

Do World Leaders Like A Good Sing Along? Of Course They Do

Anton Goryunov writes from Moscow: As Prime Minister Vladimir Putin reveals that during his recent meeting with the 10 Russian spies, who had been arrested in the United States and later exchanged for 4 American agents, he sang patriotic songs with them, with a live band playing in the background, we ask: could it be that world leaders are actually prone to singing along with others?

Anton Goryunov writes from Moscow: I don’t know about you, people, but I would have liked to be the fly on the wall in the White House during the one-on-one meeting between President Barack Obama and the visiting British Prime Minister David Cameron.

And even though [...]

Conference On Afghanistan: It’s The Lack Of Booze That Turned It Into A Farce

Conference On Afghanistan: It’s The Lack Of Booze That Turned It Into A Farce

R.F.Wilson writes: When you have a big international gathering of politicians the crucial thing is to serve them booze in abundance.

Actually, if the international gathering is lubricated properly, very few decisions are taken at all, as the delegates and guests are simply too pissed to do anything. But if the booze is limited or not [...]
