In other words, he's not going to stop trying to eliminate all opposition to Assad just because a new POTUS assumes office.<br /><br />I could not have expressed your editor comment any better than you did. While I suspect Mr. Putin would prefer Mr. Trump as under a Trump Administration there seems a greater prospect of deals on Ukraine, lifting of sanctions, joint action on fighting ISIS, and other things important to both countries. <br /><br />That is assuming he really wants peace with America. If instead his hatred toward America is visceral to the point of wanting to carry out genocide against the American people, there would be no amount of American policy changes that could lead to better relations.<br /><br />The world definitely does not "revovle" around US Presidential elections. Definitely not Russia. Russia and Putin's goals and objectives in Syria are not going to change no matter who the next POTUS is. <br /><br />In fact, Americans give the election little thought. Most Americans are far to busy just trying to survive to spend much time thinking about it. I'm sure most people in the world spend even less time thinking about the current or future US president than Americans do.B.Posternoreply@blogger.com
