| Relation between Obama, Bush 'non-existent': report

Relation between US President Barack Obama and his predecessor George W Bush remains "awkward" and "non-existent," according to a report.
The two leaders spoke yesterday as Obama announced the end of US operations in Iraq. The last conversation they had was in January when Obama asked Bush to raise money along with former president Bill Clinton for Haiti.
"There is, of course, no obligation for presidents to keep in touch with their predecessors, and there is no evidence that Mr Obama and Mr Bush bear any ill will toward each other," the New York Times said. "But their relations do seem particularly awkward - or, more precisely, nonexistent."
NYT pointed out that the persisting coolness is probably due to the political environment, especially as Obama blames the previous administration for saddling him with two wars and a bad economy. Although, he does not mention Bush by name
