On January 2nd,
the U.S. Republican Party’s Wall Street Journal headlined «Tensions Within GOP Rise
Over How to Handle Russia», and reported that the policy toward
Russia by the incoming Republican President Donald Trump is being opposed not
only by Democrats in the U.S. Congress, but also by some Republicans, and
perhaps even by enough Republicans to jeopardize confirmation of his nominee
for U.S. Secretary of State, as well as some nominees for other crucial
diplomatic and military positions.
A key insightful
passage in that news-report was: «‘What you are seeing on Russia within
the Republican Party is in some ways more a symptom of realignment across the
board within American political parties,’ said Matthew Rojansky, director of
the Washington-based Kennan Institute. ‘This speaks to something very critical
that’s going on in our political system right now.’»
