I'm seeing Russia as more internationally responsible than the US. Russia's interjections always seem eminently reasonable, both in nature and in presentation. They look patient, level-headed, and even-handed in their dealings; the US tends to appear equivocal, petulant, and impulsive in its responses--and positively demanding in its dealings. The difference is, in a word, "maturity". How long is your county's history? Russia is 1157 years old this year; the US is 243. In people terms, if Russia is 28 years old, US is 6. And this six-year-old is armed to the teeth and used to getting what it wants, when it wants it!
