RUSSIA: Dizziness From Success
(5 of 5)
But Russia's grab last week did not look like Poland's small-boy attempt to run off with a stick of candy while the big boys were killing the proprietor. It looked more like a step in a program of world redistribution whose outlines were consciously obscured, whose possibilities were unknown, perhaps even to the partners in the enterprise. Nothing suggested that Russia faced a fate like Poland's, the last country to share a grab with Germany, except the haunting recollection of Russia's new friends coming in her direction, armed to the teeth, as fast as tanks, planes and armored cars could carry them.
*Russia has 189 nationalities inside her borders.
