In our eagerness to find ways of assisting the former Soviet Union, we seem to overlook the Red Army. Nearly four million strong, this military machine is a big drag on their economy. There is no more Soviet Union. Why the huge Red Army?
There are many former Soviet units outside of the borders of the new commonwealth.
