....encounters between Barack Obama and Vladimir Putin during an Asia-Pacific summit in China on Tuesday spoke volumes about the chilly state of relations....
"It's beautiful, isn't it?" Putin was overheard saying in English in Obamas general direction, referring to the ornate conference room.
"Yes," Obama replied, coldly, according to journalists who witnessed the scene.
The three leaders stopped at Xis seat at the table. Putin reached out and clapped Obama on the shoulder. Obama barely responded.

I've just gotta say: if this were a Republican president, and relations were this bad with: Russia, Israel, etc. the media would be talking about it 24/7.
Obama is a miserable failure domestically and in foreign policy.
The media gives him a pass.
Pathetic.

Note the look on Obama's face... The FSB profilers told Putin EXACTLY what to do, to get under The MEssiah's skin.

Obama prefers to be the deliverer of the controlling gesture.

Is that why they put OZero with the wives? They didn’t trust him behind the men?

Russia has too many white people for Obama's liking.
That's why the pseudo-American that's pResident of the US hates Russia.
