Really? Putin is an ogliarch, yes.
Bush had been trying to get Putin to relax his authoritarian rule to no avail. “I think Putin is not a democrat anymore,” Bush lamented a few weeks later to another visitor, the prime minister of Slovenia. “He’s a tsar. I think we’ve lost him.”
Whether Bush or anyone else ever actually “had” Putin in the first place is debatable at best. But the story of Bush’s eight-year pas de deux with the master of the Kremlin, reconstructed through interviews with key players and secret notes and memos, offers lessons for President Obama as he struggles to define his own approach to Putin and shape the future of the two nuclear powers. The last few months have become another dramatic juncture in the volatile Russian-American relationship, with Moscow defying Washington by offering shelter to national security leaker Edward Snowden, Obama becoming the first president to cancel a Russian-American meeting in more than 50 years and then, suddenly, improbably, the Kremlin throwing the American leader a lifeline when his confrontation with Syria took a wrong turn.
Under Bush time, Putler knew his place, Obama and Trump allowed to Putler things which only Koba and Hitler did before

Why then did Putin cite his good relationship with Bush II, and bad relationship with Obama?.
its part of Putler strategy, "divide and rule", dont trust to thug´s words, you made a good point about Georgia, the problem with Georgia could not hold a line, Ukraine can...+ don't forget Georgia after it lost this war became the N1 USA´s ally in the region. ps i do agree with Bush´d do much more, sanctions on the Putin´s oil export could put down his regime in a week
Thank you.
