Wondering why Putin took back the Crimea ?? Perhaps this article by Bill Bradley (a former 3 term DEMOCRATIC Senator from N.J.) sheds a bit of light on the subject. Gorbachev was PROMISED by then Secretary of State Howard Baker ...if the former USSR allowed the reunification of the 2 Germanys and the freeing of eastern Europe from Soviet control in 1989 the U.S. would not allow NATO to expand one inch east of a reunited Germany. Bill Clinton and subsequent administrations failed to keep this bargain. Putin saw his chance to play a turn about is fair game with a weak and uninterested U.S. president in Obama. Keep in mind ... this is a dyed in the wool Democrat not a Republican referenced in the attached link: foreignpolicy/articles/2009/08/13/a_diplomatic_mystery
