Recommended: America's Russia Policy Has Failed

There is a good article in this month's Foreign Affairs: America's Russia Policy Has Failed. It is clear that the Obama administration has been outfoxed and wrong-footed time and time again by President Putin, and is even now being humiliated by Russia in Syria, to the point where Russia is telling us where we can and cannot fly over Syria. But the article argues that the American problem runs deeper than just Obama's naivete - that the Washington foreign policy consensus over the past few decades on how to handle Russia is wrong and needs to be rethought.

This is a good article, worth reading.
