For the poster earlier who said Russia was denying any troop build up on its side of the border and that we should take Russia's word on its face:


(Mind you this guy is a Moscow based military specialist)


A third analyst contacted by Snob.ru, Aleksandr Golts who writes regularly on security issues, says that Moscow’s own NATO watchers love to present the Western alliance as a constant threat. But both the US and its leading allies in Western Europe “have said that there won’t be any placement of forces on the territory of Ukraine. Period.”

Golts says he does not exclude that Moscow may seek to seize the southeastern portions of Ukraine by force, but he warns that such an operation would not be nearly as easy as taking Crimea. The local population would be less enthusiastic about such a move, and the geography would make such a conquest far more difficult.

What is disturbing is that Moscow is not allowing the kind of monitoring it is supposed to of its large-scale military maneuvers near the Ukrainian border. The Vienna convention of 2011 requires that the Russian authorities allow foreigners to monitor any maneuvers involving more than 8,000 soldiers. Moscow is not doing that, Golts says.

Sure you do dear!

here's how you follow;

Arseny Yatsenyuk
Speaking about foreign investment, he stated: “It would be very difficult to persuade foreign investors to invest in the country which has Russian tanks and Russian soldiers on its streets.”

For instance, BBC tweeted while covering the event: “Russian troops on ground in #Ukraine 'unacceptable in 21st Century' & 'military aggression' - interim PM Yatsenyuk,” choosing to ignore the “tanks” comment.

OK, if we want to discuss credentials, note that Interpreter Mag is run by the son of Khodovorsky, the Jewish oligarch brought to justice by Russia under Putin, and its overt goal is the overthrow of Russian independence and to make Russia a subordinate to the NWO (the return to the "Good Old Days" of Lenin/Trotsky and Yeltsin/Jewish oligarchs).

Now to the point of the article: In terms of geography Crimea is far harder to "invade" than south-eastern Ukraine, as Crimea is mountainous and south-eastern Ukraine is farm fields. But Russia didn't even invade - didn't use tanks, APCs (except to move a few obstructionist vehicles out of the way and crash some locked gates), etc.

It is true the population may not be as friendly to Russia as Crimea, but opposition would be relatively muted anyway - certainly far far less than the opposition which faced US/NATO in Afghanistan and Iraq. Indeed I suspect if Russia just pushes to the old Russian Empire line, they will meet very little military resistance, and thereafter, would just form police and possibly local militias to handle law and order.

You see, unlike Afghanistan and Iraq, Russia does have a huge base of support in south-eastern Ukraine, even if not as much as it is in Crimea.

Russia calls US and EU short-sighted for their approach to ultra-nationalists in Ukraine

Russia's foreign policy March 25, 23:20 UTC+4

This approach is hard to explain, commented Russian Foreign Ministry’s representative

GENEVA, March 25, 23:07 /ITAR-TASS/. Russian Foreign Ministry’s representative at the 25th session of the United Nations Human Rights Council on Tuesday criticized the European Union and the United States for being short-sighted in their approach to the presence of ultra-nationalists in Ukraine’s executive power bodies.

“This approach is hard to explain,” Roman Kashayev, who is leading the Russian delegation at the session, said.

“We are concerned with an obvious deficit of attention shown by the United States and the European Union to the presence of ultra-nationalist forces in the executive power bodies in Ukraine,” the Russian diplomat said.

“Their short-sightedness is hard to explain and is apparently linked to their ongoing enthrallment in geopolitical games,” the Russian diplomat stressed.

Russia has been warning its partners in Europe and the United States of the dangers behind the spread of ultra-right ideology and political movements, including neo-Nazis.

Kashayev said that a rise of neo-Nazism in Europe “was growing into extreme right terror. Regrettably, the European community and Europe’s political leaders seem to be unaware of how dangerous this phenomenon is.”

“Ukraine is a clear example of what the appeasement to such ideas and actions carried out for the sake of freedom of speech can lead to,” Kashayev went on to say, noting that ultra-nationalist radicals had risen to power in Kiev as a result of an unconstitutional state coup.

He meant Ukraine’s “Svoboda” (Freedom) nationalist party, in the first place, which the European Parliament accused of racism, anti-Semitism and xenophobia in 2012 and called on Europeans to stop cooperation with it.

“Representatives of these parties are holding a number of key posts in Kiev, including the posts of vice-premier, the defense minister and chief prosecutor,” Kashayev said.

But the Right Sector neo-Nazi movement is even more dangerous. “Its leaders have penetrated into power and are influencing decision-making in Kiev by way of open violence and intimidation,” the Russian diplomat stressed, adding it was them who called for exterminating ethnic Russians, Jews, Poles, Hungarians and representatives of other ethnic minorities.

“The international community should not allow Nazis convicted by the Nuremburg Tribunal to have revenge in modern Europe,” the Russian diplomat told.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 45393940


Didn't the Ukrainians/US/EU just assassinate the biggest nationalist troublemaker? Seems like it's two birds with one stone, a dangerous guy is gone and the rest know what will happen if they get out of line. Ukraine has a good handle on things. Sort of.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 45029369


Yes, this death has sent a strong message I'm sure. If any of those who usurped power or were put in powerful positions in Kyiv wish to remain in that position, they will have to clean up their act.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 45393940


Unfortunately One does not mean All. The guy was clearly out of control from likely pharmaceutical overindulgence (on top of being a cretin)..out of control and wrapped too tight even for the rest of the Neos..who have already embedded themselves in 3 key positions.
Like a disease implanted into the socio/cultural body of the Ukraine people.
It's going to suck.

OH BTW. to all retards and sheeple in the corral, here's the REAL NEWS and not that misleading info you all suck from MSM and fake journalists:

EAT IT!

More than 20 countries are participating in the active phase of a NATO-led military exercise at ranges near the capital of Moldova, the country's defense ministry said on September 26.
The Cooperative Lancer/Longbow-2006 exercises, part of the NATO Partnership for Peace program, started on September 11 and were due to run through September 29.
An official from the Moldovan ministry said 150 vehicles, including 20 armoured vehicles from the Moldovan army, are deployed at the platoon-level exercises to practice interoperability between units formed from servicemen from different countries.
Nine NATO member countries (Bulgaria, the UK, Hungary, Greece, Canada, Lithuania, Poland, the US and Turkey), and 12 partner states (Austria, Azerbaijan, Albania, Armenia, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, FYROM, Moldova, Ukraine, Croatia and Switzerland) are involved in the exercise.

Military experts from a joint peacekeeping contingent in the zone of the Transdnestr conflict, including Russian and Transdnestr peacekeepers are monitoring the manoeuvres. The self-proclaimed republic of Transdnestr, which is in Moldova, said September 11 that it regards NATO exercises in Moldova as an escalation of a military threat against it.

Kiev describes Right Sector leader's statement as threat to stability

World March 26, 1:44 UTC+4

KIEV, March 26, 1:02 /ITAR-TASS/. Right Sector leader Dmitry Yarosh's statement, which contains a threat to avenge Right Sector activist Alexander Muzychko, killed in a shoot-out with law enforcers on Tuesday, "is lawless and threatens stability in all regions of Ukraine", Viktoria Syumar, deputy secretary of Ukraine's National Security and Defence Council (SNBO), said at a meeting with journalists on Tuesday.

"Any threats addressed to the the Head of the Interior Ministry, any threats to use force are lawless and jeopardize stability in all regions of Ukraine, including that in Kiev, irrespective of the whereabouts of the Right Sector," she said, adding that "a special investigation will be carried out" into the fact of Muzychko's death.

Earlier Tuesday, Yarosh demanded resignation of the Interior Minister and arrest of those members of the special unit Sokol (falcon), who were involved in the detention of Muzychko who is known as "Sashko Bilyi".

The details of the operation aimed at apprehending Muzychko on the outskirts of the city of Rovno were given on Tuesday at a press conference by Vladimir Yevdokimov, Ukraine's First Deputy Minister of the Interior. He said members of the organized-crime group (OCG) had committed crimes in the territory of Rovno Region and in several other regions. On March 8, investigators initiated criminal proceedings against Muzychko under the provisions of Ukraine's Criminal Code article envisaging responsibility for rowdy behaviour, as well as for threats or violence against law enforcers. On March 12, Muzychk was put on a wanted list.

Yevdokomov said that during the special operation to apprehend and neutralize OCG members, the personnel of Sokol a special unit of the Interior Ministry's regional directorate, the job of which is to provide security support to operational search activities apprehended Muzychko's bodyguards who were armed with Kalashnikov automatic rifles and Makarov pistols. Myzychko himself sought to flee and opened fire on militiamen. One member of the special unit was wounded. The unit personnel had to use firearms.

Yevdokimov also pointed out that signs of a crime listed in Article 257 (banditry) were perceived in the actions of the detained OCG members. "Facts of lawless actions are galore," Yevdokimov emphasized.

The FACT is that bolshevism was flourishing only in Russia proper, no other country tolerated its raise and subsequent criminal behaviour more than Russia.

How would a well intentioned individual obtain info like that in any case, spotty perhaps.

Keeping in mind an apology is an admission of guilt/responsibility/temporary weakness and wrong judgement right?

Now this is a country with such a long rap-sheet it isn't funny. Apologies, oh maybe the Japanese Internment camps in WWII.
Other than that, you would hear pitch silence..so this is one of those pot/kettle exchanges in spades:

Obama: "Russia is a regional power"

Even from a political-geographical point of view, Russia is a country covering three continents. This is a country whose area is about the size of North America. Russia is a leading economic, political, cultural, and especially military factor in at least two major regions of the world - Europe and Asia, and recently № 1 in the Arctic. Such a powerful state can not be simply dominant in one region - how as a naval force with four fleets as Russia, armed with the most modern nuclear weapons located at a distance of up to 8000 km apart and completely adequate as forces and resources to the US can be called a "regional power"? Even thermonuclear charges of at least two Russian submarines of the Northern Fleet of class "Borei" fired, can destroy twice its population and the entire civilian infrastructure. Such frivolous talk to Russia, whose army number of personnel exceeds that of the US by 3.5 times bigger, and artillery pieces and armored vehicles wise by up to 5 times ... so such talk is irrational and strikes with simplicity. Natural resources, especially fuel in the Russian subsoil are invaluable, and the population of Russia is educated, deeply rooted in history, and brought up by the ideas of the great classical writers, philosophers, and inventors.

More important question: have the brothers and sponsors of the Bolsheviks ever apologized to Russians? This is the whole irony of anti-Russian hatred: Russians were the biggest victims of Bolshevism by far, but they get all the blame. If you look at the major criminals in the Bolshevik enterprise, a small minority were Russian - so yes, Russians are not entirely blameless, but they also do not bear the brunt of the blame, which goes elsewhere (but pervasive censorship prevents anyone from discussing this history openly and honestly).

...

The FACT is that bolshevism was flourishing only in Russia proper, no other country tolerated its raise and subsequent criminal behaviour more than Russia. It's irrelevant if the bolsheviks and their sponsors apologized to Russians, I am talking about INTERNATIONAL DIPLOMATIC relations here, at which honestly Russia presents itself as a block of ignorant peasants lead to self-destruction by madmen all throughout their own history.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 55885522


Bolshevism did not flourish anywhere, it is an ideology designed to make people a slave and live like slaves. What is your evidence of "flourish"? Soviet Union made some technical advances but mainly it was accomplished by the German scientists/engineers taken after WW II (same for technical development after WW II in USA) and by spying.

I don't know what you mean about Russian presenting itself as ignorant peasants - WTF? - but my point is why should Russia apologize because they were enslaved by some degenerate madmen educated, trained, funded and supported by "the West", the very same "West" many posters here worship so fervently?

The EU would win an all-out trade war with Russia hands down. The EU is Russia’s biggest trading partner, while Russia is the third largest trading partner of the EU. Exports to Russia make up 7.3 per cent of the EU’s total, while imports are 12 per cent. On the other hand, the EU buys 50 per cent of Russian exports and sells 42 per cent of what Russia buys from the outside. Also, foreign direct investment from the EU accounted for over 75 per cent of Russia’s total in 2012. FDI from Russia is a small 3 per cent of the EU’s total.

If Obama's true intentions are to de-escalate things, then this was an incredibly stupid comment IMO
