...others, in the tradition of the Cold War, dismissed him as just the latest mouthpiece of the old American élites. If any of them experienced Obamamania, they sure kept it to themselves. So it's little wonder that Obama's drive to put aside old grudges and start fresh with Moscow has come up against stubborn resistance from the Kremlin in recent months.

Clegg, 43 and fresh-faced, has led Britain's third party since 2007. He is multinational (his mother is Dutch; his father half Russian) and multilingual (he speaks five languages).
