  1. 91>>>The West failed, totally blew it. It seemed to me that there was no one at the helm of FSU policy at the FO/UK. There were some small, genuine and successful attempts at nurturing democracy and the best of Western standards of governance and lifestyle for all, not just the wannabe oligarchs. But, for the most part, the FO and DfID didn't seem to be fully engaged. A modest KnowHow programme , to be sure, but no support, no co-ordination, no follow up. It was all quite bizarre in the face of what was obviously a great opportunity, not for 'colonialism' but for a genuine hand of sincere friendship. Instead, the Russians got the McDonalds end of the scale....It was, and still is, very sad.
