While the
mainstream media have hailed the advances in U.S.-Russian relations
supposedly achieved on Barack Obama's trip to Moscow, some
conservative commentary has depicted Obama as a pushover if not a
dupe for the Kremlin. But as Contributing Editor Cathy Young
writes, the cheerleading and the alarmism are both unwarranted. The
visit was no great success, but Obama probably did as well as any
president could have—and some aspects of his Russia strategy can
only be judged by their long-term results.
