US President Barack Obama says the United States is “short of going to war” with Russia over Ukraine, describing his Russian counterpart as an irrational president.
Answering questions from reporters in the White House’s press room, Obama said on Friday that Washington has done everything it can to support the government in Kiev and “to deter Russia from moving further into Ukraine.”
“But short of going to war, there are going to be some constraints in terms of what we can do if President Putin and Russia are ignoring what should be their long term interests,” the US president added.
Obama made the remarks after a phone conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin in which the Russian leader warned that the sanctions imposed by the US and its European allies against Moscow are counterproductive and seriously damage bilateral cooperation.
“Right now what we’ve done is impose sufficient costs on Russia that objectively speaking they should, President Putin should want to resolve this diplomatically. Get these sanctions lifted. Get their economy growing again and have good relations with Ukraine,” Obama told the surprise news conference on Friday.
“But sometimes people don’t always act rationally and they don’t always act based on their medium or long term interests. That can’t deter us though. We just have to stay at it,” he added.
Obama’s phone call to Putin on Friday marked the first conversation between the two leaders since July 17, when a Malaysian passenger plane was shot down over eastern Ukraine.
The US claims at least part of the blame for the downing of a Malaysian passenger plane in Ukraine, which left all 298 people onboard dead, lies with Russia. Washington also accuses Moscow of supporting and arming pro-Russian forces in eastern Ukraine, a claim which is rejected by the Kremlin.
In a phone interview with Press TV on Thursday, Eric Draitser, founder of Stopimperialism.com, said the “so-called government in Ukraine is a proxy of the United States” which “was created by the United States with the backing of the United States and it exists only insofar as the United States and its European allies allow it to.”
Draitser also said that Ukraine “has become a microcosm” for Washington’s “aggressive foreign policy that seeks to make war, destabilize countries, and use them as leverage against the ultimate enemies in the eyes of Washington – Russia and China.”

Obarmy. Seems to think that by not listening to a single word Vladimir Putin says ( wether it’s the CIA ‘s take on the translation ,I wouldn’t put it passed them) that they can impose their will on any other country even when the evidence is presented to him that Russia have taken no part in their version of the propaganda by their bought and paid for presstitutes, remember the old saying ” lies are half way around the world before truth as tied its boot laces ! Please view Bawn wild ” bad things knockin on door”

Obama is making a fool out of his self almost every day now ( my opinion ) . If anybody makes any sense in this world it is Putin. And all the lies being told by Obama are all gona backfire, just like they always do.

WOW Obama speaks with fork tongue go to WAR with the USSR ??who is pay the bill for that insane idea hey??…. the soap opera is getting a wee bit out of hand in the White House indeed , over the last week I have been sending love& Light & the Violet Flame to Gaza and the hole middle east as a mantra Jean , now if 100 Million or one Billion do this mantra over the next week for say then we humanity will see a shift come to Light from most high………. The Gig is UP and all the governments who do nothing about the slaughter of humans going on for the last two weeks in Gaza then they support the what Israel’s Leader is up too……..
This month could be the turning point that is why I am doing this mantra dayly at different times of the day Jean; we who are on the same page will see the new evolution unfold anyone who is still feeding the dark Force will not enter this shift into the 7th Golden Age……
That is my take so far and there are millions waking up from there coma is to speak not to Happy in seeing what is happening worldwide…………..
:) Hugs, ~Jean

Putin told Obama exactly what Obama wanted to hear, when in all actuality Putin has rallied his country to tighten their belts, dig in, and give the bird to the west. Russia will survive this, just like they have in so many other conflicts in the past, and the new deals with China and the BRICS alliance will see them through.
