By all means, they (and certainly Putin) have tangled webs beyond belief. Am slogging through that book that QP Pete mentioned in the Area Studies Pillar of Cloud thread (alleged Politburo notes & interpretations of same etc.) and they always have several chess boards they're taking care of at any one time.

By contrasting with Obama, it's also serving as a PR piece for Putin.
