Northern Ireland: Obama with a harem against Putin
Romance from politics and other naturally naive people expected a breakthrough from the meeting of the Russian and American leaders. Perhaps someone in his imagination painted pictures of Obama once again pulling out a red button from under the table, on which there will be another twisting of the word “RELOADING”, and will offer Putin to press and wait for the result. However, no buttons were presented at the summit from Obama, and to expect a reboot after all the latest events in the world, including Snowden’s revelations, accusations of supporting Assad’s “bloodthirsty regime” and allegations of Russian indulgence of receiving nuclear weapons. weapon Iran did not have to.
In recent years, all these G-8 summits (G-20, Hundred and other nouns expressing numerical values) all turned into not a platform for solving urgent problems, but a sort of harem where all wives should serve their only master properly completely satisfied ...
In most cases, such summits are held as regular attempts to demonstrate to the whole world how Russia and, for example, China do not wish to be imbued with the “progressive democratic ideas” of the Western world. They say, just look at them: well, how dark and backward they are - the whole world understands that Assad is a hangman, a tyrant, a barbarian and a cannibal, and Russia and China do not understand, and to understand because of their natural anti-democratic poverty can And if at the G-20, for example, we (Russia) have at least some support: the same China usually votes in sync, India can lend a shoulder, then Putin had to speak alone at the Eight. Why? Yes, because neither China nor India is in the Big Eight. Apparently, they are not so “Big”, in the opinion of, for example, the Italians, the French, or the Japanese with the Germans, who fill G8 with themselves ... Where can modern China go to Italy ...
In general, in Northern Ireland, the essence of the summit has been reduced to once again trying to put pressure on Russia in order to get free access to the administration of the well-known policy regarding the resolution of the Syrian conflict, to check the strength of the harem. Apparently, they thought: there is no China, which means that Russia will be more compliant with us. But Putin obviously didn’t want to be a “wife from the harem” and knew perfectly well what awaits him in Lough Erne, and therefore was ready to oppose the position that the representatives of the other seven delegations unanimously voiced regarding the same Syria. He was ready for another spit of Western journalists, who, with obvious disregard for professional ethics, asked the question and managed to accuse Russia of allegedly holding the blood of Syrian children, because Putin supports the Assad regime. This, apparently, in the West is now such a new fashionable trend: politicians are supposedly being excluded from the direct comments of the position of politicians and interlocutors, and give the task such comments, veiled by questions, to make to their journalists. Like, let us, gentlemen from the BBC, fuck him! Make it so that Putin had to look for words for an answer — suppose the world sees what it means to stand on the “evil” side, and we will stand here on the sidelines, smile.
But I didn’t have to look for words, because we all are well-known to all hissing on a fairly hackneyed western disc. They are Putin - about the blood of babies, and Putin to them - about cannibals from the Syrian opposition, devouring human hearts. In general, there were quits, remained with their opinions. The harem became agitated and more than ever clung to his master ...
Not shed any light on the solution of the Syrian conflict and the full-time Russian-American meeting. For two hours, Putin and Obama discussed how to compare hours regarding the Syrian situation, how to work in terms of cooperation to provide assurances about the nondirection of nuclear potentials, how to find common ground in global geopolitics, but nothing intelligible from this two-hour rendezvous did not work out. Yes, and could not get out. Well, really we really had to believe that almost 2,5, the positions on Syria and Assad in Russia and the United States were mutually opposed, and then suddenly - bang, they would sit down, talk and everything will come together ... They sat down, talked, shivered boots - still did not converge.
Can this “non-coincidence” of positions be blamed on Putin? Yes, anyone, not him. The very figure of the Russian president can be treated as you please, this is a personal matter and the right of everyone. You can hate him, you can admire him, making an effort, you can not notice at all, but the seemingly ordinary and passing G8 summit in Northern Ireland makes one important fact to understand: Putin replays the rest of G8.
And this is by the way that Russia today is weaker than ever, that everyone is feeling spit on Russia today, that Russia's opinion in the rest of the world, excuse me, is all on the drum. But no, it does not work "on the drum." After all, if the same Obama-Cameron-Merkel-other way didn’t give a damn about Putin’s opinion and Russia's position, then NATO bombers would have been circling the Syrian sky long ago, and President Bashar Asad could well repeat the fate of Muammar Gaddafi or Saddam Hussein. But 2,5 of the West (here you can add other adherents of the all-consuming democratization) can’t get to the Syrian flesh, pinching fingers on the thorny Russian political defense of legitimate Syrian power. 2,5 of the year, the Russian position on Syria remains unchanged: calm, solid, without too much husk, with a clear logic of action. This is annoying “G8-1”, but “G8-1” cannot do anything openly. And if it cannot, then it is taking a beloved path: on the sly, with the involvement of massive media shelling and opportunities to reach the puppet pseudo-opposition through third countries.
In some ways, our positions do not coincide yet, but we are united in the desire to stop the violence, stop the increase in the number of victims in Syria, solve the problem by peaceful means, including through the negotiations in Geneva - this is Putin.
However, we have a common interest to put an end to the violence that is taking place, as well as the interest in securing chemical weapons that may be in Syria - this is Obama.
As you can see, the presidents think about each of their own. Putin sees ways out of the Syrian crisis in full-fledged negotiations - negotiations that should take place in a real multilateral version, and not in the form of a narrow small party. At the same time, Obama will want to worry about how to "secure chemical weapons." According to all the laws of modern political psychology, if a high-ranking official from the United States (especially the president) begins to use the words "chemical weapons", it means that he feels that all other arguments have ended. Well, it's like in a dispute between two people with opposing views to use the last trump card in the form of “you are a fool!” Or “and who are you ?!”
Barack Hussein Obama, but after all, to secure chemical weapons in Syria is simpler than a pair of turnips: you don’t need to put it there yourself — once, and you don’t need to let your harem do it — it's two. That's the whole problem ...
In general, the summit, according to the tradition that has developed in recent years, has become another series of the soap opera “Ulomai Vladimir”, but only Vladimir continues to prove that he is not fragile ...
And in September we are expected to continue - a new personal meeting between Putin and Obama is already in Russia. The results, or rather their absence, can be predicted today ...
