Not many follow what's going on in Africa. I do. The S. African President (I believe, could have been another official) stated that the US told them not to allow Putin to visit. He said that they would escort the plane once it got to S. African air space, that they would escort him from the airport to whatever event he was attending, that he would be allowed to relax and talk to whoever and that they would escort him back. He ended by saying that the US doesn't tell them what to do.

I don't think many in the West understand how much we're hated in large parts of the world.  I'm just wrapping my head around that and it can be a bit stunning.  

Sometimes I think we've been sipping too much of our own Kool-Aide.
