Since last may everybody knew Russia was going to leave the CFE. Next it will be INF. There seems to be an opinion within west that another arms race isn't going to happen. The fact is that today oil prices are rising because of demand generated by rising consumption in China and Inda and the great instability in the middle east. The arms race is on.
The west has less control of manipulating the oil price then it used to do. Addition to this is the the US dollar and western economies and the continuing wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The shoe is now trully on the other foot. It is west that is in peril, it can't afford an arms race with Russia and china. Take a look at France or the poverty striking the inner cities of US. If one predicted the oil would be $100 a year ago it would have been dismissed as crazy talk.

Burns states that,
Countries should not unilaterally walk out of arms agreements,
describing Russia as being out of step with the majority of the O.S.C.E on
election monitoring and Arms control...(Burns is talking total crap )..it was the U.S who unilaterally pulled out of the S.A.L.T.agreement on nuclear arms
a couple of years back ,also if there were international monitors in Florida in 2000 that clown..Bush.. would not be around to cause the total mess he has.
