Think we will see a revival of the good old espionage thriller movies from the 60, 70s and 80s !

I expected that an increasingly stronger Russia would act with more self-confidence on the world scene, and would not accept one-sided pro-West deals anylonger. However, I must admit that maybe I was wrong in estimating how far it would go. Slowly but surely the increasing aggressiveness of Putin's policies (also with regard to energy economy, and press) start to become a concern for me. It's all becoming too much, and too fast. Maybe Putin successfully bluffed me. The German-Russian energy cooperations also threaten not to turn out the way it was expected.
