Moscow Preventing "American Dictatorship" March 17, 2003 By Toby Westerman Copyright 2003 International News Analysis Today www.inatoday.com Moscow is playing a leading role in preventing the establishment of an "American dictatorship world-wide," and U.S. "encroachment on the United Nations," according to official Russian sources. "The diplomatic triangle of Moscow, Paris, and Berlin" stands in opposition to the "party of war" led by the U.S., Moscow stated. Moscow's statements were carried by the Voice of Russia World Service, the official broadcasting service of the Russian government. Russia, Germany, and France have joined together to oppose a U.S.-led attack upon the regime of Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein. While Moscow is denouncing the U.S. for attempting to establish a "dictatorship world-wide," Russia has declared its unyielding support for Iran, a burgeoning nuclear power, which Moscow characterizes as an "important factor of stability in the Middle East region," according to VOR. Since the establishment of the Islamic Republic of Iran in 1979, U.S. foreign policy has regarded Iran as a supporter of terrorism, a "rogue state," and most recently a member of the "axis of evil," a term initiated by the administration of George W. Bush. Russian President Vladimir Putin will soon travel to Iran on an official visit, VOR reported. Despite U.S. concerns, Moscow has pursued an ever-closer relationship with Iran, assisting in Teheran's nuclear development, providing arms to Iran, and establishing military cooperation with the Islamic Republic. Bush recognizes Russia as a "strategic ally" of the U.S., and Moscow defines itself as a "partner" with the U.S. in the war on terror. Although a "partner" with the U.S. in the war on terror, Moscow aids not only Iran, but also every nation the U.S. regards as a supporter of terror. Moscow's contradictory foreign policy - aiding supporters of terror while an ally in the war on terror - is mirrored in Russia's domestic policy. "New" and "democratic" Russia has reestablished observance of the heroes of the Stalinist era, and trains its elite youth amidst the trappings of the Red Army. The latest issue of International News Analysis - available now - examines whether the "new Russia" is real or myth, whether America has found a new friend - or is watching the emergence of a formidable new foe.
