Political Factoid
At the 2017 G-20 Summit in
Hamburg, Germany, President
Donald Trump* gave Russian
President Vladimir Putin
virtually everything Putin
wanted.
- World leadership recognition
- Acceptance of Putin's denial
of U.S. election interference
- Less than first class U.S. leadership
- A peace agreement for that part
of Syria controlled by Bashar al-Assad
(and no area where the U.S.-backed
rebels are fighting)
- "Respect, camaraderie and freedom
from criticism." (as Masha Gessen
of the NY Times so succinctly put, 2017-Jul-08.)
