President Putin called President Obama today to discuss the U.S. proposal for a diplomatic resolution to the crisis in Ukraine, which Secretary Kerry had again presented to Foreign Minister Lavrov at the meeting at the Hague earlier this week, and which we developed following U.S. consultations with our Ukrainian and European partners. President Obama suggested that Russia put a concrete response in writing and the presidents agreed that Kerry and Lavrov would meet to discuss next steps.
President Obama noted that the Ukrainian government continues to take a restrained and de-escalatory approach to the crisis and is moving ahead with constitutional reform and democratic elections, and urged Russia to support this process and avoid further provocations, including the buildup of forces on its border with Ukraine.
President Obama underscored to President Putin that the United States continues to support a diplomatic path in close consultation with the Government of Ukraine and in support of the Ukrainian people with the aim of de-escalation of the crisis. President Obama made clear that this remains possible only if Russia pulls back its troops and does not take any steps to further violate Ukraine’s territorial integrity and sovereignty. President Obama reiterated that the United States has strongly opposed the actions that Russia has already taken to violate Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity.
Flexibility.
Give us a transcript, you hack! I wanna hear how pathetic you sounded.
I want a transcript....
and Putin didn’t say one single thing?
Obama is to Putin what Boehner is to Obama.
Putin said he was flexible on all points. And he said it with a smile.
Beginning to look like both Nations are free to release anything they wish to their People be it true or untrue.
Oh that update on the WH privacy policy ought to be good!
More transparency? LOL
Putin: “are you wearing mom jeans?”
Obama: “improves my flexibility”
Putin calling to tell dumBO what zerO is going to do.
For some reason this reminds me of Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait, following an inquiry by Iraq to April Glaspie of the US State Department. Not quite as bad as her “we don’t have an opinion,” but I doubt Obama is projecting any resolve to act.
It goes like this:
Ring, Ring
Hello this Putin, Who is calling
Hello this President Obama
Click, hummmmmmmmmmmmm.
Putin is playing chess, Obama is playing choom.
I figure if Putin called him, it was to amuse himself before telling his forces to move into the Ukraine. It just isn’t reasonable that he would not move in after the Ukraine threatened to blow up the pipeline.
Obama is only good for a laugh to Putin.
“I want a transcript....”
ok
Barry: Yo Vlad dude its me, Barry
Vald: so
Barry: look my man what do you need to get me out of this mess you got me in?
Vlad: Kiss my A—
Barry: Oh dude I dont do that any more, But stepping across the fence once in a while like I do I can do a pretty good lewinsky if you know what I Mean.
Vald: spit or.....
And once galled by Putin, our dear Barack then tilts at yet another windmill in the USA. I heard the latest was some kind of DOJ based “sensitivity” training for “transsexuals.”
The devil is using our own evil to flout us. The evil empire is getting to be seemingly more virtuous than we are.
Just another sign of weakness.
