It is now confirmed that ESA will go with one Russian built EDL system for the Exomars rover for a mission in 2018.

Well, I suppose that's the end of Exomars then...

Not quite. This only affects the 2018 rover mission. The TGO orbiter and EDL demo,
assuming their Proton launch goes as planned in Jan 2016, have been, and are being, developed
wholly within ESA. I am not aware of any major hurdles or question marks
regarding that part of the Exomars project (apart from meeting the Jan 2016 deadline, that is).

I'm one of the most durable and fervent advocates of space exploration, but my take is that we could do it robotically at far less cost and far greater quantity and quality of results.
