Russia was finally mentioned in one of the seemingly endless U.S. presidential primary debates. Mrs. Clinton, prompted by the moderator, managed to stutter out something resembling “Medvedev” when asked for the next Russian president’s name during a debate in Cleveland…. Unfortunately, it was only a trivia question that served to show how far off the American radar Russia is. I would have been delighted to hear the answers to the follow up, “will you, as president, push for the removal of Russia from the G-7 since you have just said it is no longer a democratic nation?” If the next U.S. president fails to address that question, any attempts to speak on behalf of global democracy will be hollow. In that case, for many of us around the world, change will be no change at all.
