You know what he hates most? A missile defense system on his door step. That's what I would explore.

.........in one of Obama's first acts of unilateral disarmament.....he cancelled such a system scheduled to be deployed in Poland, Czech republic. Don't expect any eastern European leader to believe anything out of Obama now.

....of course, we got in return that red reset button Hillary was showing off.

What would you say to those who think this would just start Cold War II?

That was true from the outset...........but we need to make him sweat...........so that he will be less willing to play the same game the next time.

Economically I don't think we have the levers....not with Europe dependent on his pipelines.

Europe isn't as much dependent as they used to be............Germany gets most of its oil now from Norway.........and if the US continues to increase its exports of NG, the EU sans the Ukraine might be able to quit Russia completely. I am sure that has Putin worried..........the Russian economy is still not all that solid and is very dependent on its energy sales. And now the Ukraine is looking into fracking.

Yeah, no reason not to move forward on that.........Putin is showing his true colors..........a tin pot dictator wannabe.
