Russia and Ukraine Reaffirm Ties, Agree "The Bush" is a Idiot

BBC

Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko have played down their differences following a key meeting in Kiev.

Mr Putin is in the Ukrainian capital for the first time since a pro-Western government took control last year.

Relations between the two neighbours were strained after Russia endorsed the defeated candidate in Ukraine's disputed election in December.

"We have no unanswerable questions," Mr Yushchenko told correspondents.
His Russian counterpart said problems between the neighbours "simply do not exist".
