U.S. President Barack Obama will meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin next week while both men are in New York for the United Nations General Assembly at Putin's request, a senior Obama administration official said on Thursday.

"Given the situations in Ukraine and Syria, despite our profound differences with Moscow, the president believes that it would be irresponsible not to test whether we can make progress through high-level engagement with the Russians," the U.S. official said.

"President Obama will take advantage of this meeting to discuss Ukraine, and he will be focused on ensuring Moscow lives up to the Minsk commitments. This will be the core message of this bilateral engagement."

Vlad will tell him that the Russians will take out ISIS in Syria and the US should not interfere. He will ask Obama to coordinate air strikes to avoid a confrontation with and to protect Russian troops for inadvertent air attacks.

Putin is building up military bases near the Ukrainian border. He may warn Obama not to intervene if they decide to invade eastern Ukraine.

I’m betting that Obama does NOT want to meet him with cameras rolling...or a live mike. Obama doesn’t like being called a twit.

Excellent! Considering that Putin is working in Russia’s interests, while Obama is working only for destruction, I’m looking forward to having Obama bullied into doing whatever Putin orders him to do. There is a good chance that serving Russia’s interests will do less harm than the terrible choices Obama would make if left to his own devices.

“the president believes that it would be irresponsible not to ***test*** whether we can make progress”

This gives away the script. Hussein will go, sulk, and stalk off in a petulant huff and it will be called strength. Putin will roll his eyes and set about the systematic liquidation of Hussein’s co-religionists.

Maybe Putin will just kick his azz. I mean he does have diplomatic immunity.

BO is shaking in his boots. Maybe he needs to bring the Mooch and Valerie to protect him.
