Is There a Soft Underbelly to Soft Power?

Qatar for foreign journalists and NGOs is much more open than China and Russia. The second reason is that the Russians and the Chinese actually don't give a shit what we think. So you've got there's a soft underbelly, if you like, to the soft power politics. Third reason is that Western NGOs have done a really good job and Western journalists have done aReally good job. And I don't think you've had such an alliance, such a sort of coalition for any other mega event before.
