Ukraine does not have as much power in world politics as the USA. [/QUOTE]Would I be right in saying that NO country has as much power in world politics as the USA?

On top of that, upper level management never really is interested in what happens in the lower regions of its office. The people thinking that Bush actually takes note of things our prime minister (Jan Peter Balkenende) says in meetings with him should definitely have a reality check. It's more formality than anything else.
