Also, I'm still loling over Russiamerica: The IRL Soap Opera. (That's what I'm calling this right-out-of-an-action-movie spycatching debacle that's goin' on right now between Russia and the US.
The latest from the Moscow Times, 1st July:
Russian and U.S. officials said relations would not be damaged after the U.S. arrests of suspects in a purported Russian spy ring.
"We expect that the incident involving the arrest in the United States of a group of people suspected of spying for Russia will not negatively affect Russian-U.S. relations," a Foreign Ministry official said Wednesday, speaking on condition of anonymity.
Awesome, so we aren't gonna have another Cold War. Honestly, America bb, what were you thinking? And right after your boss had a nice friendly lunch with Medvedev! tsk tsk... I bet this was totally a situation where Russiamerica slept together and it was just like old times and then it went like:
R: OH, I CAN'T STAND THIS EMOTIONAL CLOSENESS! LET'S REVERT BACK TO WHAT WE KNOW BEST! MAYBE WE CAN FOOL OURSELVES THE WORLD INTO BELIEVING WE DON'T HAVE FEELINGS FOR EACH OTHER
A: OKAY! WORTH A TRY... (THOUGH, GORGEOUS, I STILL LOVE YOU MADLY AND AGAINST ALL REASON, JSYK...)
R: I KNOW, BUT IMAGE IS EVERYTHING, AS YOU HAVE OFTEN TRIED TO EXPLAIN TO ME. I WILL START! YOUR MAP ENTHUSIASTS, THEY ARE SPIES!
A: OKAY, OKAY, CALM DOWN, AMERICA, IT'S JUST AN ACT. IF HE CAN DO IT, SO CAN I. READY? HERE GOES NOTHING. RUSSIA, YOU'VE GOT SPIES TOO, HDU! 11 OF THEM!!! ACTIVATE 1950S AMERICA! IN JAIL, ALL OF YOUUU.
R: HMPH. WE ARE WAITING FOR MORE INFORMATION. HE TOLD US NOTHING ABOUT THIS! THIS IS TYPICAL AMERICA. HIS EVIDENCE ISN'T EVEN LOGICAL! WHO SEALS MONEY IN GLASS JARS ANYMORE? HOW...PRIMITIVE. IT REEKS OF THE COLD WAR. IT IS LIKE SOMETHING OUT OF A CHEAP DETECTIVE NOVEL.
WORLD: .... *ROLLS EYES* LOOK, IT'S THOSE TWO AT IT AGAIN. DON'T THEY EVER LEARN?
A: PSST, RUSSIA, DO YOU THINK WE'VE PUT EVERYONE ON EDGE ENOUGH YET? DDD: TBQH I REALLY MISS YOU, IT'S HARD TO PRETEND I DON'T.
R: I MISS YOU TOO! DDDD:
A: /CLEARS THROAT OKAY, SO MAYBE EVERYONE, UH, TOOK THIS A LITTLE SERIOUSLY. LISTEN - I'M NOT TRYING TO ANTAGONIZE RUSSIA. I WANT TO BE FRIENDS WITH RUSSIA. WE WERE DOING A PRETTY GOOD JOB TRYING AGAIN... UNTIL WE FOUND THE SPIES. BUT I DON'T THINK IT'S GONNA BE A HUGE DEAL, I DON'T WANNA GO BACK TO SQUARE ONE - RUSSIA, DO YOU THINK THIS WILL DAMAGE OUR RELATIONS?
R: I DON'T THINK THIS WILL DAMAGE OUR RELATIONS. MEET ME AT MY PLACE TONIGHT?
A: OKAY! AWESOME! I'LL BRING THE COLT. ;DDDDDDDD
Pfft. Apologies. that so spiraled out of proportion.
Aw how cute :D
Lovely shippy quotes from some articles:
In Washington, the State Department said Tuesday that the spy case would not derail "reset" efforts. "We feel that we have made significant progress in the 18 months that we have been pursuing this different relationship with Russia. We think we have something to show for it," Assistant Secretary of State Philip Gordon told reporters.
Apparently, Ivan agrees. :D
Putin took a low-key approach to the arrests.
"Back at your home, the police went out of control [and] are throwing people in jail," Putin told former U.S. President Bill Clinton during a meeting in Moscow. "But that's the kind of job they have. I hope that all the positive gains that have been achieved in our relationship will not be damaged by the recent event."
And this! Pfft lol.
In addition to the timing of the arrests, Kovalyov said details in U.S. court papers about the suspects using invisible ink, fake documents and even transferring money by burying it in a glass jar for retrieval months later were "complete nonsense" and sounded like "a cheap detective novel," Interfax reported. Kovalyov, a former director of the Federal Security Service, heads the Duma's Veterans Committee.
In other news, I'm in the process of watching The Dark Knight for the first time. Once I get my Mac set up, I'll get around to finishing it. But so far it's badass! :D
... Listening to the radio. Pfft this summer is turning out AWESOME.
THAT IS ALL.
