On 28 Dec 2016, within the “Presidential Transition Period” outgoing President Obama, well knowing the allegations to be a concoction of lies invented by himself and a team of senior Democratic Party adherents or discussion or briefing of President Elect Trump, signed an executive order imposing extensive sanctions on Putin’s Russia alleging his interference in the 2016 US presidential election.
The act which was without precedence was a “spoiler” designed to create major difficulties for the Trump administration and it worked a treat since President Trump was prevented from establishing any meaningful dialogue with Putin in the term of his presidency.
