“Killed Due To Resistance Offered”
Magomed Evloev was a purely secular and modernly thinking young man, who waged probably the most effective kind of war, informational one, against the local authority (Ingush President Murat Zyazikov). His site “Ingushetia.ru” infuriated the enemy and saved the doomed for death people, and called people to coming out to the street to make protest. This has been the only example of high-precision counter-propaganda in the cotemporary Russia.

Money Has No Smell Of Powder
The western establishment, including business circles, counted to see a liberal kind of president in Medvedev, and initially he did not disappoint them. However, after he signed the decree about recognition of Abkhazia and the South Ossetia, the attitude towards him changed. Naturally, a question arises: how can all that influence the mood by businessmen, European ones first of all? What will matter more for them: obvious advantages of conducting business in Russia and with Russia, or political aspect? Wouldn’t problems appear with international expansion of the domestic companies, including those with the state share in them, like Gazprom and Rosneft?

It Will Just Give Her No Money
Economic losses out of military-political conflicts can be measured precisely in rubles: the outflow of capital, reduction of the stock market’s capitalization, amounts from the budget spent on the war and on liquidation of its consequences. However, there are deeper consequences that are impossible to count exactly, but still possible to foresee.

Have Scolded And Yet Did Not Beat And Have Not Taken Anything Away
The text contains no word “sanctions”. It should be mentioned that before the summit no European leaders, including malevolent Britons, Poles, Scandinavians and Baltic States – no one had been talking of sanctions. It had been Russian TV stations to speak about that most of all, probably, preparing the home informational market for the comments about some “failed attempts”. In reality we were just scolded, but not beaten and not taken anything away. And here we are, triumphant. Instead of friendship and partnership we can be offered commodity-money relations that were flourishing between the West and the USSR even during the worst years of the cold war. The Europeans, though, do not want returning to that point.
