For the new President of the U.S., Russia's attitude was a rude reminder that although the Kremlin's tactics might change, its strategy most emphatically does not. "Together, let us explore the stars, conquer the deserts, eradicate disease, tap the ocean depths and encourage the arts and commerce," said Kennedy in his inaugural address.
