    WikiLeaks:Aliev:Many officials don't recognize Medvedev as leader

    In the documents of the US State Department published by the
    `WikiLeaks' still appear new disgraceful expressions left behind the
    political veil and interpretations made by the Azerbaijani President
    Ilham Aliev.

    Aliyev said that he considers Medvedev "a modern, new-generation
    intellectual," surrounded by people whom he does not control. He said
    that he has personally witnessed Medvedev taking decisions that then
    required further approval before they were implemented, referring
    specifically to a border demarcation agreement that he had agreed with
    Medvedev only to have it stymied by "others," presumably in the prime
    ministerial office. He added, "Many high-ranking officials don't
    recognize (Medvedev) as a leader." He said that there are signs of a
    strong confrontation between the teams of the two men, although not
    yet between Putin and Medvedev personally. "We have a saying in Azeri,
    'Two heads cannot be boiled in one pot'" (crude street slang
    suggesting that two leaders are spoiling for a fight).
