Then-Candidate Obama said he would stand in “solidarity” with the people of Eastern Europe.Then-Candidate Obama: “And we also have to affirm all the fledgling democracies in that region, you know, the Estonians, the Lithuanians, the Latvians, the Poles, the Czechs, that we are, in fact, going to be supportive and in solidarity with them in their efforts. They are members of NATO.” “It is absolutely important that we have a unified alliance and that we explain to the Russians that you cannot be a 21st-century superpower, or power, and act like a 20th-century dictatorship.” (Presidential Debate, September 26, 2008) … But the New York Times says President Obama Tried to Negotiate a Secret Deal with Russia at the Expense of Our Allies in Eastern EuropeAccording to the New York Times: “President Obama sent a secret letter to Russia’s president last month suggesting that he would back off deploying a new missile defense system in Eastern Europe if Moscow would help stop Iran from developing long-range weapons, American officials said Monday.” (New York Times, March 3, 2009) The New York Times article continued: “The idea has distressed Poland and the Czech Republic, where leaders invested political capital in signing missile defense cooperation treaties with the United States despite domestic opposition.”
