Not a pleasant week.
The files were delivered on our Russian friends. Interesting bedtime reading. The record keeping of the Feds leaves something to be desired, however. I am surprised they any longer have any influence or power at all. Such a feeble organisation. The CIA is much more thorough, though of course they know their advantage and become so much more vexing to deal with. I do hate incompetance.
The french connection we once had has been severed. Fucking Cordelia and her self-righteous, sanctimonious bullshit. All talks have come to nothing, there is to be no reconciliation. I don't know why I should even care, the age of Europe is over, afterall.
Then again the age of America is also nearing her end. Of course, Regan is more like our father than I could ever suggest to her. She has the same limited vision and inability to process change. She does not like the new friends we are making. She prefers the old ways. But the old ways are dead. If she wants, I could always arrange for her to join them.
Edmund, of course, comes with his own assets. Asia being his playground. And that is where the future lies. Regan offended everyone at the meeting, of course. Simple internation custom is beyond her. She calls it asserting herself, I call it stupid, and either way it doesn't equal good business. Edmund was furious.
Soothing male egos. It gets bloody boring fucking fast.
