I'm not Trump fan, but this could also be a rational pullback by this administration. From Clinton 42 to Obama 44, every presidential administration has put continued pressure on Russia and has tried to limit Russia's historical zone of influence. See, for instance, the major expansion of Nato into former Warsaw block countries that has taken place in the last 20 years. We would never allow Russia to do this to countries in our hemisphere without major reprucussians. Regardless of the motive, it's probably a good idea to back off of Russia a little to lower tensions.
