塩川先生は青野さんの『冷戦史』についてソ連側は同書が指摘するよりずっと早い段階でイデオロギー的競争より地政学的競争として冷戦を戦うに至ったとしている。5月刊行のS. Radcenko, To Run the World: The Kremlin's Cold War Bid for Global Power(Cambridge UP)はどういう解釈になるのだろうか。
On the subject of external support of domestic insurgencies. A list of equipment supplied by the Soviets to the Greek Communists in 1947 (approved by Stalin). Interesting that all of the equipment was of German origin (presumably to disclaim any Soviet responsibility).
