From the article:

"The Ukraine situation is also a reminder of how wrong Barack Obama was in 2012, when he ridiculed Mitt Romney’s assertion that Russia was America’s ‘number one geopolitical foe.’
“The 1980′s are now calling to ask for their foreign policy back,” Obama said dismissively at a presidential debate with Romney.
“The ‘80s called’ and we didn’t answer,” Romney said this week as the Russian invasion began."

With an economy barely larger than that of Italy, and no prospects to improve because of rampant corruption, Obama had it right. Romney's comment is at once childish and hypocritical coming from the caucus that has embraced the treason from Trump and McConnell.
