Fresh from Pravda (yes the Russian one not the BBC) we have their take on our new PM (emphasis mine) :
Britain Unveils Anti-Russian and Anti-European Prime Minister
Cameron’s attitude to Russia leaves much to be desired. In 2008, the Conservatives criticized Russia’s actions during Georgia’s attack against South Ossetia. Cameron personally arrived in Georgia to meet its president Mikhail Saakashvili. He even said that Russia should be punished for the war in the Caucasus and added that Russian oligarchs should not be allowed to visit London for shopping.
Cameron’s anti-Russian views were probably formed during his youth. When a student, he visited the USSR. He likes telling a story of an adventure that happened to him on a beach in the city of Yalta, Ukraine. There he was at one point approached by two Russian men speaking fluent English. Cameron was later told by one of his professors that it was ‘definitely an attempt’ by the KGB to recruit him.
In addition to Russia, Cameron is not very fond of the European Union. He has already said that London would not be taking any steps to become closer to Brussels and will not replace the pound with the euro. A year ago, Cameron stood up against the ratification of the Lisbon Treaty.
We will soon find out if David Cameron demonstrates himself to be an anti-Russian and anti-European prime minister. If the new coalition does not collapse, this person will stay in power in Britain during the next four years.
