Not trying to justify Putin here, but the EU started the ball rolling on the Kyoto Agreement. The EU does things that, even as an American, are sucky.
The EU couldn't even get Europe to agree to agree.
It must be on how they word it, "screw everyone but us"? If Putin is disPUTINg it, perhaps the EU is asking Russia do, er, "extra duty" or something NOT in Russia's best interests. Putin WILL do whatever is in Russia's best interests, as he should. After all, he doesn't work for the EU, but for the people of Russia.
Just a thought.

Not sure about that, they (former KGB or communist) still have this thing about using all means to inflict as much damage to the US and West in general if they have a chance.. Look how they oppose everything US does..
