It doesn't take much to move Russia.

It is a downright disgrace. Russia is the only country that has reacted to the caricature scandal in such a manner.

Graham Allison

Russia has gone through eight years of continuing economic pain.

Mikhail Khodorkovsky

When kids are saying my family comes from Poland or Russia, you have to say my family comes from Georgia or my family comes from Tennessee.

Michael Geeser

We learned from our mistakes in the game against Sweden, where we played poorly. We knew Russia had good, quality offensive players, and the only way for us to have success was to play good defense and not give them space. It's a great success for us to win the bronze.

Russia, Russia-unwashed, backward, appealing Russia, so ashamed of your own backwardness, so orientally determined to conceal it from us by clever deceit.

This summer the Kremlin will help the Church celebrate its millennium: the baptism of Russia, one thousand years ago.

Thomas Pickering

The third round bidding might be dominated by China, Japan, Russia, Thailand, Malaysia and India.

Mahmudur Rahman

Valery Nesterov

We have very aggressive expansion plans for acquisitions in Russia and abroad.

Vitaly Mutko

The relations with Russia are of key importance to our state.

George Robertson

We launched the U.S.-Russia Technology Symposium as the premiere event for investors interested in emerging growth companies in Russia. Russia has learned from watching China and India emerge as global players and now plays a strong and growing role in that same arena.

Clearly, Russia doesn't measure up.

Hugh Barnes

The first China-Russia joint military exercises are neither aimed at any third country nor concern the interests of any third country, and will pose no threat to any country.

Alexander Konovalov

Because Russia has many Asian republics, we would utilize that as well.

Robert Farber

I don?t see where Russia in the foreseeable future can pile up these resources. Russia is saying it has markets. In a way, it?s a form of pressure on Europe.

Valery Nesterov

My feeling is that relations with the U.S. are much more important to Russia than relations with Tehran. In case Iran doesn't make any deal on Monday, Russia will slowly move on the side of U.S. and EU.

Victor Yasmann

We're going to do international news and are trying to do a Russian angle on them, trying to show what impact international affairs have on Russia and we will also try to show interesting things about Russia, what is happening here, documentaries, interesting people and places, something that might be new to our audience.

Margarita Simonyan

We have seen this in the early payment by Russia of Paris club debt and the increase in euro in their basket.

Mikhail Khodorkovsky

Eastern Europe really represents three distinct opportunities global retailers should be acting on: Russia, traditional Eastern Europe like Hungary and Romania, and 'new' Eastern Europe like Ukraine, Slovenia and Latvia.

Fadi Farra

[Ronaldo has returned to his native Madeira for the funeral and Fergie admitted he was not sure when the 20-year-old would be ready to return.] It's a difficult time for the boy, ... His dad was only 46. And it didn't help that Cristiano got the news when he was in Russia with Portugal.

Anju Bobby George

We hope and expect President Yeltsin will abide by his prior statements that Russia will not get militarily involved in this situation.

Mike Hammer

He grew up in St. Petersburg, Russia, where the greatest male dancers of all time have come out of. He has a way of moving and charisma about him that no one else can achieve.

If Russia and China back Iran on the compromise option [the joint venture], then the issue will not be pushed on to the UN Security Council without consent from Moscow and Beijing.

Vladimir Yevseyev

We informed our partners about the development of the gas industry in Russia.

Alexei Kudrin

Russia wants to play mediator between the West and Islamic world. But that won't bring any good because Russia is more vulnerable to Islam than the West.

Alexei Arbatov

In Russia, if a male athelete loses he becomes a female athelete.

Yakov Smirnoff

There's countries that we all identify as particular areas of concern -- China, Russia -- and I think that will get a good deal of discussion. But I think both of our governments go into this dialogue recognizing this is a global problem and it's got to be a global solution.

Chris Israel

Russia will not soon become, if it ever becomes, a second copy of the United States or England - where liberal value have deep historic roots.

Vladimir Putin

The site [in Russia] that delivers the actual trojan program is no longer reachable.

Johannes Ulrich

How come explosives, guns, grenades and munitions were delivered at this school unnoticed and in advance? How come a truck packed with heavily armed, masked, bearded militants could travel so easily through one of the most militarized regions in Russia crossing all checkpoints and descend at the school? It's inconceivable.

Yuri Urbanovich

The EU cannot avoid debating this issue with Russia.

Jean Asselborn

Russia has done some serious damage to its otherwise-good reputation for security of supply. Europe is going to have to take a hard look at their exposure and whether there's a way to fix that.

William Ramsay

Our expectations of the show are clear. We have increased our stand space by four times.We believe in a bright future for the gaming business in Russia and look forward to meeting our partners and customers at the show.

Brett Clark

Russia is using primitive and vulgar methods. This is the last attempt, the last fight to keep its influence on Ukraine.

Oleksander Dergachev

Russia is still the leader in world space exploration. But its position of leader involves great responsibility - we have no right to lag behind. We can and we must move constantly forward.

Valentina Tereshkova

Palladium and platinum are incredibly robust. There are questions about Russia's deliveries -- no one knows what Russia means.

George Gero

This year, Russia has become a different country. It is no longer a democratic country. It is no longer a free country.

Andrei Illarionov

In March 2007, Russia could become a member.

Maxim Medvedkov

We need European and all foreign companies to be able to invest in upstream in Russia, and for Russian companies to be able to invest in downstream to provide transparency. Companies need to have a right to invest openly without any restrictions imposed by the state.

Igor Shuvalov

Russia is ready to join the project anytime, because it has enough potential and willingness for it.

Alexander Rumyantsev

(South Korea's announcement) comes on the heels of Russia saying the same thing. This has fueled speculation that Japan may do the same.

Andrew Busch

[We believe] that today's weakness related to the news that Russia is pulling poultry import licenses is a buying opportunity. We believe that the Russian government will issue the licenses fairly quickly.

Farha Aslam

It is necessary to coordinate our actions, as both Russia and Norway are interested in combating poaching and illegal fishing.

Alexei Gordeyev

This is a direct route that will link Russia and Germany, as well as consumers in other countries in the future. It is ... of principal significance.

Alexander Medvedev

Russia has to show that it's not just a big energy partner but a potentially much bigger energy partner, particularly to the United States.

Russia wants to restore its superpower status, and that includes putting these countries back into its orbit.

Everybody can entirely write off their exposure to Russia and this quarter earnings would suffer, but that would be the end of it and things will keep chugging along. It's not just Russia. They are exposed to Asia and Latin America. Pick you debacle.

Russia is the last frontier. They compare hunting there to what Alaska was 100 years ago.

Denny Geurink

I look forward to continuing our discussions with the Palestinians and with the Israelis and also to staying in very close touch with others in the international community -- the European Union, the U.N. secretary-general, Russia, Egypt, Jordan and others.

Martin Milner

In that sense Russia is a good option.

Peter Westin

We always knew there was a risk associated with Russia. But more than a political risk, it's a transit risk and a development risk.
