Either way, Putin is not biting to Obama's stupid moves before he leaves office, infact he has invited the US diplomats in Russia, to bring their kids along to a get together at the Kremlin.

Putin: No expulsions in response to US sanctions
Russia's president condemns President Obama's actions against its officials but says he will not stoop to the same level.
Vladimir Putin has rejected plans to expel US diplomats in a tit-for-tat retaliation against Washington - and instead invited their children to visit the Kremlin.
The surprise announcement from the Russian president comes hours after foreign minister Sergei Lavrov said he would be asking Mr Putin to declare 35 US officials in Moscow and St Petersburg as "persona non grata" - the same number being expelled by the US.
Mr Putin condemned the US action and said Russia had "all the grounds for a comparable response" but added: "We will not create problems for American diplomats. We will not expel anyone."
He said he reserved the right to retaliate but would wait and see how Donald Trump acts when he succeeds President Barack Obama next month.
The Russian president said he would not stoop to the level of "kitchen irresponsible diplomacy" and even extended an invitation to the children of American diplomats to a festive party at the Kremlin.

So much for a smooth transition for Trump, so far, useless prancing idiot Obama said he would have won if he had gone for a 3rd term, don't think so clown, seeing as Clinton was going to carry on your disastrous policies and she thankfully didn't win.
