Obama was the head of the Harvard Law Review before getting active in politics, and almost certainly was a decent writer. You're also assuming that Putin actually wrote this himself. I don't think it's impossible -- he was in the KGB and FSB, analysis could be something he's trained heavily in -- but if I had to bet money it's not his writing, just his byline. Furthermore, even it it was his work it missed the mark pretty hard, and a lot of dudes are dying due to terrible assumptions made about Ukraine and it's military.
