Another very interesting shot in the diplomatic joust between America and its creditors. Dmitri Medvedev, President of Russia showed off a coin from the new world currency, which he had in his pocket, and which was given to each of the attending heads of state at the G8.
PR stunt maybe, but one that should have the debt leaden USA trembling like a shitting dog at the moment.
Whatever else he did though, he did maintain a noble Rusiian tradition by looking like this, at the walkabout, which if you ask me looks more than a little tired and emotional, as Private Eye would say. (Via the Exile.)
