Muscovite editorialist Fyodor Lukyanov is convinced that one must go back to the 1970s to find such confidence among the Kremlin elite. That was in the middle of the Cold War, at a time when the United States considered the Soviet Union to be its alter ego. After seven years in power and close to 50 percent cumulative economic growth over that period, Vladimir Putin enjoys the stature and ambition of a tsar. He multiplies grand gestures as he pushes his scientists to explore the Arctic's marine depths or denounces the Conventional Forces in Europe Treaty.....

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia has tested the world's most powerful vacuum bomb, which unleashes a destructive shockwave with the power of a nuclear blast, the military said on Tuesday, dubbing it the "father of all bombs."
The bomb is the latest in a series of new Russian weapons and policy moves as President Vladimir Putin tries to reassert Moscow's role on the international stage.
"Test results of the new airborne weapon have shown that its efficiency and power is commensurate with a nuclear weapon," Alexander Rukshin, Russian deputy armed forces chief of staff, told Russia's state ORT First Channel television. The same report was later shown on the state-sponsored Vesti channel.
"You will now see it in action, the bomb which has no match in the world is being tested at a military site."
It showed a Tupolev Tu-160 strategic bomber dropping the bomb over a testing ground. A large explosion followed.
Pictures showed what looked like a flattened multi-storey block of flats surrounded by scorched soil and boulders. "The soil looks like a lunar landscape," the report said.
"The defense ministry stresses this military invention does not contradict a single international treaty. Russia is not unleashing a new arms race."
