“The only flexibility that he can be talking about, and I think you could see Medvedev understood it perfectly, is giving away more from the American position on missile defense and more broadly on security issues. For the president to try and say today as he did that he can’t get something complicated started in an election year is just dissembling. Obviously he is saying to Medvedev and the Russian government generally, just wait until after the election is over and then I can give way on points that I would be harshly criticized for in the United States if I surrendered them before the election.”
