...taxpayers will never get all of their money back, but AIG does have divisions that are worth several billion dollars. If there is a timetable for selling those, the public has not been informed. AIG may say it cannot predict the future, but someone at AIG has a document with the company's plans...

In the end, in the middle of the crisis there is no real reason to formulate this strategy because no one knows what will happen between now and 2020." And although Russia remains on the offensive on many fronts - from nukes to energy and the Arctic - continuing negotiations with the U.S. may mean...
