To some degree the termites just ate away at the foundations of the Soviet Union, which were already weakened by the system's own internal contradictions and inefficiencies; to some degree the Reagan administration's military buildup in Europe forced the Kremlin to bankrupt itself paying for warheads; and to some degree Mikhail Gorbachev's hapless efforts to reform something that was unreformable brought communism to an end.

一方面，蛀虫们腐蚀掉了已经被体制自身内部的矛盾和拖沓削弱了的根基；一方面，里根当局在欧洲的军事集聚迫使克里姆林宫扩充军备，结果导致国家经济崩溃；一方面，米哈伊尔·戈尔巴乔夫不幸想对一些不能触动的东西进行改革，导致共产主义走向灭亡。

It would be tempting but simplistic to have Kremlin masterminds battling with wily western powerbrokers over east Europe's future.

The Europeans should also note that Russia has emerged from its tussle with Belarus with a 50% stake in Belaruss gas pipeline (payment for which will partly offset the gas-price hike), strengthening the Kremlins grip on Europes energy infrastructure.

欧洲人还应当看到，俄白&斗气&最终让俄罗斯获得了白俄罗斯天然气管线50%的股份（购股费用将部分抵消天然气价格上涨后所增加的支出），克里姆林宫对欧洲能源基础设施的控制也得以进一步强化。

DEEP in the Kremlin, spymasters are planning a sinister conspiracy to take over Europe, using a Russian enclave in a former Soviet state that is now an independent country as their springboard.

RUSSIA announced this week that, just as it promised, it had pulled all its troops in Georgia back to the two disputed territories of Abkhazia and South Ossetia. Many European Union leaders were swift to praise the Kremlin for meeting the conditions it agreed with France's Nicolas Sarkozy some six weeks ago—and almost as quick to suggest a return to business as usual.

据俄罗斯本周宣称，他已经如约将格鲁吉亚境内的全部军队车回到阿布哈兹和南奥塞梯这两个争议领土。6周前克里姆林宫认同了法国总理萨科奇提出的一些条件，日前均已达成；不少欧盟领袖为此转而对俄罗斯大加赞赏，而且迫不及待的建议同俄恢复正常合作。
