Krauthammer believes that Russia is playing chess with a set of rank amateurs and saw a huge opening for themselves after Kerry’s comments this morning. For Russia, Krauthammer says, it means they get to keep Assad in power and maintain their Iran/Hezzbollah/Assad/Russian axis of power as well as prevent Jihadists in the Muslim countries like Chechnya from getting their hands on the chemical weapons. He calls it a win-win for Russia and says that Obama will accept this because it’s the only way he saves face.
