Not Long Here

I understand that Russia has withdrawn from Open Skies.
Your information is absolutely wrong about the Open Skies Treaty - the Russian Federation has neither withdrawn nor expressed any intent to withdraw from the Treaty. Neither has anyone else.

With the possibility of issues with the CFE, there are those who would argue that the remaining treaties take on an even greater significance - it's essential that we keep up good communications with the Russians, by whatever means.

Weather permitting, I expect there will be a number of interesting trips to Russia next year and beyond. The Andover is still going strong (but slowly!).
