The head of the USA Barack Obama is mistaken in thinking that he could beat the Kremlin And bend it to their rules: how large a loan with high interest rate does not make one a rich man, so the Ukrainian elections do not make Obama the winner, writes American printed illustrated edition.

in reality, in the opinion of the edition, taking place in Ukraine approves literally other: Putin wins. And it does not want to see Obama.

the Creator of the article Tom Rogan - blogger, columnist for the British Daily Telegraph living in the capital of the USA is trying to make a comprehensive review of the situation in Ukraine. In his vision, the very fact that the Ukrainian people have elected a new President, is good news. What Petro Poroshenko wants to restore the sovereignty of their country, encouraging, he said. But this does not talking about the Fact that Putin went back on his word, on the contrary, it is a measure of the success of Putin's policies.

in the diplomatic field, the Kremlin turned out to apply dependence of Germany on Russian energy resources, And to divide US And EU. Calls Obama to tightening of European sanctions against Russia have failed. In addition, its internal problems distracted European Union from the clarification of the relations with the Russian Federation And politically weakened him. In the end, the fact is: on Ukraine's European integration process Putin has turned out to stop for a while. EU understood that, But forced to accept.

Political strategy Putin on Ukraine Tom Rogan compares with its successful solution to the problem of the Syrian chemical weapons. Relegating most of its troops from the border with Ukraine, the Kremlin has reassured the West, and in reality have won the game, he said.

Speaking at the military Academy West point, Obama loudly declared the victory of his diplomacy in Ukraine. At the same time, Putin may quietly to toast his victory - thus ends the article in the American edition of the National Review.
