Russia's Iran Test -- The Stakeholder Version
Posted by David Shorr
Over on RFE/RL's Power Vertical blog, Robert Coalson warns "not so fast," when it comes to counting on Russia to help put pressure on Iran. True enough, President Medvedev might've been leading President Obama on the other day in New York when he affirmed that sanctions may be necessary. Coalson gives an entirely plausible reading of Russian strategy -- that Moscow is gaming all of these issues to chip away at US influence as a predominant global power.
To which my response is: we'll see about that, won't we. I'm very big on the idea of responsible stakeholdership, and this will provide a textbook case. The essence of stakeholdership is action on behalf of the wider international community and the rules-based order. Robert Coalson portrays a resolutely self-interested Russia that perceives advantages to letting the Iranian situation fester. The current international effort to ratchet up pressure on Tehran will test Medvedev and Putin's commitment to upholding the norm of nuclear nonproliferation. By the way, for the definitive analysis of Russia's prospects as a pillar of the world community, see the excellent chapter by Andrew Kuchins and Richard Weitz in the authoritative volume on responsible stakeholdership Powers and Principles: International Leadership in a Shrinking World.
On a quick note of bipartisanship, having seen Sen. Bob Corker talk this morning on CNN about Iran (and Afghanistan), he sounded extremely statesmanlike and practical.

I'm sorry, but it's not good enough to say "do over." The pundits' second thoughts should carry the cargo of their previous assumptions, heady projections and salient selling points.I'm a businessman, but also about this thing.nike air max .

2.I bought this Carl F. Bucherer Watch for my husband for our anniversary. He loves it! It is a very classic design and is great for casual or business attire.
3.Great looking Carl F. Bucherer Watch I gave as a xmas gift. Black face almost looks brownish. Nice big face and thick band. Wanted to keep for myslelf.
4.Very Nice Carl F. Bucherer Watch, bought for my husband,. The only problem is that I need to get it sized to his wrist, not really sure if I can buy something to do this or what.. Any suggestions..
5.My boyfriend is set to finish law school soon and I wanted a Carl F. Bucherer Watch that reflected his upcoming transition into the "adult" world. It is beautiful, has a great weight to it and the dial face is great to look at!
6.Bought this for my husband as a Christmas present. I ended up giving it to him early because he had a very important business trip, and I wanted him to look his best. He absolutely loved it! He loves the large face, and the weight of the Carl F. Bucherer Watch. It looks so classy and sophisticated. It added the perfect frosting on my already gorgeous husband!

I was reading something else about this on another blog. Interesting. Your position on it is diametrically contradicted to what I read earlier. I am still contemplating over the opposite points of view, but I'm tipped heavily toward yours. And no matter, that's what is so great about modernized democracy and the marketplace of thoughts on-line.

An interestingstorage box take, and very well written, but I have dry bushingto disagree. I was 13 when plain bearingthe towers fell, and yes, I did grow up with Bin Laden as one of my "boogey men." But it's more than that. I remember watching the towers falling over and over again in the auditorium at my school as students and teachers left the room to call relatives in the city, many coming back with tears streaming down their faces or not returning at all.

One of the basic Michael jordan shoes for sale details that you need to know Michael Jordan shoes is that you will find that with Air Jordan shoes , ALL of them are manufactured outside of the United States. There is NO genuine manufacturing plant within the United States and any store that says they are selling genuine USA made air Jordan shoes are in fact selling you a knock off and if you purchase from a business cheap Jordan shoes that says this they will in fact scamming YOU.
