There may or may not be an important argument in this article, but sentence/paragraphs like the following make it impossible to read to it's end:
"Indeed, three of the justifications that many may offer for this policy decision – and budgetary injunctions like this one reflect policy choices, however much some, especially in the current environment, will try to hide behind these supposedly "objective" numbers – are problematic at best."
If anyone wants to look up "turgid" or "stilted" for our edification, please...

0Goble is one of the most astute observers of Russian politics. It's a great pity that he doesn't express himself in a more user-friendly manner.

0Yes, reading Goble is sometimes like climbing mountains. So is Kissenger, or for that matter Samuel P. Huntington.
As for Goble, he is a Great Friend to Estonia. Here's a short bio.
Paul Goble is director of research and publications at the Azerbaijan Diplomatic Academy.
Earlier, he served as vice dean for the social sciences and humanities at Audentes University in Tallinn and a senior research associate at the EuroCollege of the University of Tartu in Estonia.
While there, he launched the “Window on Eurasia” series. Prior to joining the faculty there in 2004, he served in various capacities in the U.S. State Department, the Central Intelligence Agency and the International Broadcasting Bureau as well as at the Voice of America and Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty and at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.
He writes frequently on ethnic and religious issues and has edited five volumes on ethnicity and religion in the former Soviet space.
Trained at Miami University in Ohio and the University of Chicago, he has been decorated by the governments of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania for his work in promoting Baltic independence and the withdrawal of Russian forces from those formerly occupied lands.

0Goble has done a lot for Estonia, although I recently read Ahronovich's novel about Ameerika Hääl and can understand why there is an unravelling and closing down of news services taking place. There's just too much pettiness in the broader Estonian community. When Goble get's a handle on the language, he'll probably find this out firsthand, since it is one of the most fundamental and prevailing reasons. He's probably never heard of the saying eestlase parim söök on teine eestlane!

0I strongly encourage those for whom the above resonates to distribute Paul Goble's important message.
