#1 An interesting concept, that is, about Iran sending a package through Azerbaijan and Georgia to Chechnya. Then again, they could probably deliver direct about anywhere on the Caspian coast.

#2 I don't know why this should come as a great surprise to Medvedev if Russia has any kind of intelligence. Iran has indicated its intentions for quite some time now. I'll bet the Israelis have a good handle on Iran's progress--their survival is at stake.

#3 "I don't know why this should come as a great surprise to Medvedev"

It is not that he is suprised. It is that Russo-U.S. relations are going to get cozier than they have been. Medvedev's visits with President Obama last week might mark the beginning of the warming trend, and so Medvedev remarks are possibly meant to build accord, but not necessarily out of surprise.
