No, I'm saying the opposite. The West shouldn't have expected him to behave towards us any differently than he treats anyone else.

I'm still not getting it, Putin obviously treats the West different than others, way more hostility and paranoia, way less success at bullying. No one that's been paying attention for the last 20 years is particularly surprised that Putin's gonna Putin, but it is surprising to see him drop the ball this hard.
