Opinion: Babitsky goes fishing or plays a double game By Peter Lavelle and Robert Bruce Ware

MOSCOW, August 8 (RIA Novosti political commentator Peter Lavelle with Dr. Robert Bruce Ware). Over the past week, Western pundits have ridiculed the Kremlin over the fact that Andrei Babitsky was able to interview self-proclaimed Chechen terrorist Shamil Basayev undetached by security forces in the war torn republic.

What the same pundits have overlooked - most likely purposely - is that Babitsky and his employer, Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, have presented conflicting accounts surrounding the interview.
