in the Europe/US dealings.
Schroder has now assumed the role of "bridge" between the US and Europe, as it is clear since the UN General Assembly sessions.
Schroder's strong hand comes from the fact that he stood for Europe's own geopolitical interests, independently of what the US administration thinks. Now it's payback time and as oposed to "New Europe" he controls the cashflow the US desperately needs.
Why should he deal with Blair when he now talks directly to the americans?
If you are correct about your assessment of Blair's strategy, than he has failed miserably (moreover, it was bound to fail, I had been saying that for months).
But then I don't believe those were his intentions at all. Blair IS a neo-con 5th columnist.
