haha yeah the obama state department…the great reset relations with putin and be more flexible…they made that view up after he tried to invade Georgia and Bush sent him packingWhat had Putin done up until 2012? At the time that statement reflected the current state department assessment of the threat Russia posed. He was yet to annex Crimea and he was yet to get hip deep in Syria and dozens of other provocations. At the time Romney's statements seemed alarmist and was probably just meant to get the old cold warriors on his side rather than prescient.
face it, obama and the dems were putin’s bitch and we continue to see it more and more
