| Medvedev seemed optimistic that the transition in the White House would provide a fresh opportunity for a new friendship between the two countries. President-elect Barack Obama, who takes office on Jan. 20, has been critical of US President George W. Bush's plans to build a missile defense system in eastern Europe, but hasn't yet taken a clear stance on the issue. "The first signal we received (from President-elect Obama) shows that our partners think about this program rather than plan to simply rubber-stamp it," Medvedev said. The Bush administration insists the system, to be built in Poland and the Czech Republic, is required to counter Iran's growing ballistic missile capability. However, the Kremlin considers the deployment a threat that would weaken its strategic nuclear deterrent. Source 6 |

Everyone wants to be a friend to Russia, but the ideals from West to East are so vastly different that any new President that thinks he can be long term buddies with the Kremlin is in for a rude awakening.

Russia has seen an alarming rise in the murders of journalists and activists speaking out about government abuses in the embattled North Caucasus region. We speak to Elena Milashina, a Russian investigative journalist who has just won the 2009 Alison Des Forges Award for Extraordinary Activism from Human Rights Watch. She was friends with both the activist and journalist Natalya Estemirova, who was killed in July, and the internationally renowned Anna Politkovskaya, who was killed in October 2006. Ref. Source 6
