Incompetent #Merkel's book is being debated, so I thought I'd leave Christopher Hitchens' remarks from 2005 here as counterpoint:
"Mr #Putin intervened outrageously in the attempt of the people of #Ukraine to make a self-determined government of their own..."
"And yes, now #Syria, and now #Iran and very unhelpful about #NorthKorea too..."
"This is extremely dangerous and it shows that there has been a great #russian chauvinist resentment ever since the events of 1989"
