Rather than summarizing them I am going to directly rebuttal his article piece by piece.

Expectations….
I can't say I have been to any international summits before; however, I have a feeling I may already know what might play out. Probably will hear much of what one normally hears any time they listen to a foreign diplomat or representative, lots of rhetoric and no substance. As you may already notice I …
