GENEVA, SWITZERLAND – Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, now famously running for a new term as president, after helping his hand-picked successor Dmitri Medvedev take the job, says in an article published 4 October in Izvestia that what he would like to see a new “Eurasian Union” of the former Soviet countries.

Putin was quick to say this was not a step into the past, the Moscow Times points out, noting “it would be wrong to associate the new body with the Soviet Union.” He adds in the article that “It’s naive to try to restore or copy what has already been left in the past, but tight integration on a new political, economic and value basis is the requirement of the time.”

He argues that the union would be part of “‘a greater Europe with common values of freedom, democracy and market laws,’ which will provide a faster integration into Europe for its members.”

"BERLIN"

Update 18:35  Geneva, Switzerland (GenevaLunch) – Patrick Chappatte, whose political cartoons regularly appear in GenevaLunch, is commemorating the fall of the Berlin Wall by inaugurating a new online product, graphic journalism, sometimes called comics journalism. A section of his Globe Cartoon web site now carries his Berlin wall story as well as illustrated reports of his recent visits to Gaza, South Ossetia and South Lebanon. His comics-style reporting has previously appeared occasionally in print.
