Glasnost…what happened to it? The old soviet-style of governance is still alive and well. It is self-evident in a large number of the old countries of the communist empire where the iron curtain came down and, along with the Berlin Wall, served as reminders that East and West, never the twain shall meet. However, seventy years has passed since those days, and the curtain is lifted and the wall knocked down. A new era of peace ensued “glastnost” thanks to Gorbachev, and the small matter of the Star Wars program. Putin has unpicked all the good work with a single aggressive act that has put the world on “high alert” for heaven knows what in the near future.
