It wasn't long ago when an American President by the name of Ronald Reagan thundered "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall." Now my predecessor, a former Republican president, tells Putin, "Do what ever the hell you want". A former President actually said that. Bowing down to a Russian leader. I think it is outrageous, dangerous and it's unacceptable.
