Nixon went on a whirlwind trip abroad in 1974 to escape the Watergate turmoil, the coward, his last stop was in the USSR with an Official visit; with met with General Secretary Brezhnev, President Podgorny, and Premier Kosygin.
He didn't change much really. Who would have thought that little boy would turn into a bloody tyrant who would even use poisonous gas on his own people? Richard Nixon was a crook, but not a murderer so he can't be responsible
Back in the days when you could be a sadistic despot, but it would not matter because you were anti-communist. With Carter things changed, for four years.
It is not petty; it reflects the psyche of the rich despot, the 'rich' in one of these authoritarian, countries. Besides adorning their palaces maximally with gold and crystal, their personal attire is not that of the typical citizen, but rather one that seeks to emulate that of the Western dandy.
A 1985 recording captured Ronald Reagan telling Hafez "Mr. President, let me take this opportunity to extend my congratulations on your re-election to a new term as president of Syria."
