The Great Wall of Mongolia
Submitted: Jul 1, 2008 - Michael Auslin argues that "Mongolia may become an economic satellite of Mr. Putin's newly expansive Russia" ("Genghis Putin," op-ed, June 24). This may be what Russia wants, but it is not what it will get. Mongolia's national and economic security are anchored in diverse and balanced trade relations, and prior investments won't necessarily give Russia an inside track for the future.
