RUSSIA PUBLICLY REJECTS AN OBAMA OVERTURE

It is obvious Medvedev (and Putin) has no respect for Obama. Obama's initiative to compromise on US missiles in Eastern Europe for Russian help in Iran went down in flames. This doesn't look good for American power and influence. It's one thing to take the blow privately, but Russia made it a public rebuke.

This is seen as a sign of weakness. But Obama thinks he can make deals with Putin.
