Russia's elite policy-making circle??? This is very interesting. Mr.Putin wishes to communicate that this decision was not his alone, but was a group decision? It was a wise decision, of course. The new convention center sounds fascinating. I wonder if it is now possible to attend the G20 in Delhi without ever leaving air conditioning? I was in Delhi in June in 2004, just before I flew to Moscow and then to St.Petersburg (a flight path that was brought to mind this week, especially since when we landed in St. Petersburg we found out that as we flew in one direction from Moscow a plane flying in the opposite direction (toward Chechnya) was blown up by Chechen terrorists). In India in June the heat and humidity outdoors were almost unbearable. I don't know if that is the case in September.
