a qualcuno sarà sfuggita la coda di questo articolo del guardian, che apparentemente parlerebbe solo delle figuracce del berlusca al g8:

«Jones added that said the leading role played by the US, even though it was not hosting tomorrow’s summit, was a sign of things to come. “The criticism of the Italians is more than warranted, but there is a broader point here. It is inevitable that the US will play a more central role in the management of an expanded G8. If there are going to be many more players at the table, not all of them western democracies, there’s ever more need for a strong central core. That can only be provided by the US.“»

non c’è un giudizio di merito in ciò (l’alternativa sarebbe la russia, o la cina, e non mi paiono certo meglio). c’è un po’ di tristezza per la scomparsa dell’europa, questo sì.
