The trouble is that "going their own way" for many ethnic groups in Russia means getting even on another group for what happened to their ancestors 600 years ago. These people have a long memory.

I only wish we had been far more aggressive in establishing military relationships and alliances with Russia. I think there was a moment there we could have taken most of the nukes off the board and brought almost all the rest under joint control. Might have cost a trillion but, oh my, what a chance not taken.

Man am I glad you're not in charge. What a chance not taken? Joint control of our nukes with the Russians? If you knew anything about history you might see the utter stupidity of that statement.
