This week’s D-Day celebrations on the beaches in France will, of course, include our then ally Russia, despite the anti-Russia sanctions about which the remaining allies are united.  But the FT senses some cracks in the alliance:  "European officials, however, suggest there is a difference of views about the nature of the separatists in eastern Ukraine, with the US tending to see unrest as being instigated by Moscow, while some in Europe believe the rebellion to be more organic."  Besides, Europe needs the gas and we don’t.
