Yes. President Obama made clear to then President Medvedev (now Prime Minister) that he could work more closely with the Russians after Obama won re-election. President Obama has been true to his word and has been a close ally with President Putin in Syria, Iran, Egypt, Venezuela, Cuba, and Ukraine. President Obama would also like to work with Putin on eliminating U.S. nuclear weapons but the Republicans will likely block this initiative.

Did President Obama order Russia to provide Iran with S-300 anti-aircraft missiles to counter Israeli threats?

No, this did not happen. President Obama and Russian leader Vladimir Putin have a contentious relationship. Mr. Putin does not take orders from any other world leader, and prefers to do whatever he feels is in the best interests of Russia, whether other countries (including the US) agree with him or not. But since President Obama has long been a supporter of Israel, there is no reason why he would order any other country to send weapons to attack Israel.
