Well, this must've been a chilling moment for Putin:

President Barack Obama has said that he ordered Russia's Vladimir Putin to "cut it out" in a conversation about email hacking ahead of the US election.

Implying that the Russian president knew about the hacks, Mr Obama said: "Not much happens in Russia without Vladimir Putin."

The president said he had warned Mr Putin of serious consequences at a summit in September.

A month later, the US accused Russia of meddling in its democratic process.

Feeling the full force of Obama's wrath there. "You just cut it out, you big bully. Or else….or else…."

It's another one of his famous red lines, like Assad's use of chemical weapons.

Why, poor Obama must be wondering, can't people just be nice to each other? They must know that I'm not actually going to do anything. My legacy's all about peace and good will and harmony, and having a lovely smile. Look, I've got the Nobel Peace Prize to prove it….
