In the OT, telling Putin not to hang Saakashvilli by his balls & patting himself on the back.

so, do you actually believe that story? Putin realising, on Sarko's behest, that he might be only a Bush? It just doesn't chime.

(and I say that only because I've read lots of Odds & Ends)

I can see Sarko and Putin having a joke at Bush's expense - if that's what you are asking.

I seems like silly banter, not some diplomatic coup as Sarko presents it.  

It's always the problem with Russia, isn't it?  What is true and what is not?  You just have to let go of these expectations about "truth" and "tales" and go with the flow.

Like Odds & Ends: doesn't matter if it is true.  It's funny.

plenty of kwatsch though :)

i think that was probably the redacted version of what putin said. i'm sure the original was much more ...um, colourful...

Sorry about the empty Klatsch! But I hope you can apreciate the time and effort that went in to finding the 29 links in the other 4 sections of the Salon. :-)

I was not critiquing you, but rather wondering why no Klatsch is happening (or at leat being reported) anywhere in the world - and in particular what Sarkozy was doing - because I'm sure otherwise you would have found about it and posted it!

The world is Klatschless right now - not sure it's a good thing!

And thanks as usual for all your work.  The Salon is the best place on the nets to know what's being reported around.
