Ah ... the "that Was Different" excuse.
Different or not, why'd he say it and what was the assurance Medvedev was going to give Putin on his behalf?
btw, besides the words, did you catch the chummy reassuring hand grab Obama gave Medvedev?
That's a classic Obama bit.
He doesn't just shake hands, he grabs the forearm of the guy he's schmoozing.
If he can't do the shake and grab he uses the touch of a comforting hand.
You can do better than this repeating talking points to score political points when this has all been debunked over and over and over. As is usually the case there is much more to the story, and taking something out of context is not only misleading but dishonest.
I suggest you open your mind and educate yourself on the entire background to those comments. Here: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/obama-more-flexibility-russia/
And if you seriously think this is legitimate whataboutism for what our president did yesterday with no shame in front of the entire planet with an OPEN MIC I feel sorry for you.
