The illegal PM cannot seem to make up his mind. The underlying theme is say what you have to say to get what you want and ignore it or contradict it later when you want something else. I cannot see that he has any credibility with the international community. I think the word is that Frank must show definite progress towards an election (under the old system) before anyone will believe him, not just words, but action.
It is also risky to take VB's or his media reports seriously about these meeting he keeps going off to with international agencies. The reports from the agencies themselves usually paint a completely different picture. For example, after the IMF visited last week VB was saying they are going to support his "reforms". Later it turns out that they have their own idea of reforms (economic) which have little or nothing to do with VB's Samyesque "reforms". The official IMF report is not due until January. It should be interesting to hear if the EU has any statement after this latest junket in Europe.
