Wow. It's not often that I see Medvedev's name mentioned in the news.
In the Western press .... no. In the Russian press .... Medvedev gets as much coverage as Putin. On economic matters .... even more so. I give him kudos for one thing ... he predicted tough economic times when the Ukraine crisis blew up 8 months ago. Unfortunately .... his worst case scenario has become reality.

He certainly has been whistling a different tune. But their relationship has endured the test of time. I guess they both have a storing sense of loyalty towards each other .... for now.
