Consider thefact that US external policies are always the same, Bush was the 'opposite' of Obama and yet US is still in Afghanistan and they still commit war crimes across the globe despite the fact since Bush Jr there was Lib/Rep/Lib presidents.
US - which still shapes worlds events by far - can start wars and fly drones in foreign countries that kill people there.
Russia can only send 'green men' to Ukraine or provoke a short term strike with Georgia.
This is not a result of a short term thinking nation.
