Iceland expressed disappointment on Tuesday that western allies had failed to provide support to help ease the country’s financial crisis, forcing it to turn to Russia for a €4bn loan.
“We have not received the kind of support that we were requesting from our friends,” said Geir Haarde, prime minister. “So in a situation like that one has to look for new friends.”
So nobody wanted to help gallant little Iceland - except Russia - whom despite grave internal problems has come to their aid.
That is rather shameful of the West.
