In a Wednesday Foreign Policy op-ed entitled “Bowing to the Kremlin,” Mitt Romney again blasted President Obama for remarks made to Russian President Dimitry Medvedev intimating he would have more “flexibility” to tackle missile defense after his election. Romney also went on to further criticize Russia as a “thorn in our side”:

Russian intransigence has elicited no push-back from the White House. Indeed, as the conversation in South Korea shows, President Obama appears determined to ingratiate himself with the Kremlin. This, unfortunately, seems to be the real meaning of his “reset” policy. An outstanding example is the personal phone call that Barack Obama made to Vladimir Putin from Air Force One congratulating the Russian leader on his election as Russia’s next president.
