Russia's new president, Medvedev (Medved is a bear), likes western rock music. Wow, why is that so amazing to the western press? Nearly every Russian I know likes western rock.
I would be more surprised if the United States' new president liked Russian rock, and had someone sing it on stage during the inauguration. Now wouldn't that be a blast, of sorts?
Congrats, anyway, to the new "liberal" president! Keep in mind liberal (in Russia) does not mean tree hugging environmentalist who votes yes on gay marriage. It means...willing to make changes. As long as Vladimir Vladimiromich (Putin) agrees. Hmm. We'll see. Cross our fingers.
Note: Wikipedia has Medvedev's height listed as 5'4". I wonder if that will change once he takes the office.
