It is political impotence arising from inability to change Russia's course. Also, a hope to make up for the shameful decisions like the cowardly flight from Afghanistan."Medvedev, who currently serves as deputy chairman of the Security Council, added: "These amazing prohibitions will change nothing, of course. Even the ignorant people at the State Department know this"The ex-president went on to compare the incursion into Ukraine. with Russia's militarv operation in Georgia in 2008."The military operation] will be conducted in full, until all the obiectives the president of Russia has set out are achieved no more and no less As it was in a similar situation in 2008" he said.RESOURCES:Let me help you in your journey to becoming a more Purpose Driven Leader:Free course!Adventuring With Your ChildrenJoin Greg’s 90-DAY HEALTH & FITNESS CHALLENGE!
