Like I've said to many already. Putin is playing master chess in Ukraine, while BHO is still learning how to play the game of checkers...he (Putin) is so many levels and moves ahead of this dumbass administration it's just pure luck if they get something right.

In the end, Putin will have achieved everything he wanted and the US and Kiev will say they won because Ukraine is now at the peace table and negotiations are taking place to restore trade and fuel deliveries to Europe.

Ultimately, Putin will have unfettered access to the Black Sea, and it will be business as usual.

JMHO
