when Putin heard Obama's threats, sketched his first smile :)))
Nice to know much of the new administration are the same oligarchs who were in charge previously with the added bonus of extreme right groups like the Right Sector and Svoboda.
The sheer level of hypocrisy from the USA and EU beggars belief. Crimea has nothing to do with us and has historical and cultural ties that go back centuries. If the people want to self determine to join with them let them. The same for the regions around Donetsk and Kharkov.
After all that is what happened in Kosovo where militant terrorists started the whole thing. Russia though is not like it's little brother Serbia and the US and EU cannot bully it. Anyway most people here in the UK couldn't care less and most agree the Crimea is Russian territory.
Unfortunately we have a bunch of clowns on both sides of the House in Parliament who will ignore the general public again desperate to suck up to Washington.
You should know that Russia is a super power but they are so kind that still tolerating all the shit from gay EU if Russia wants there will be no EU any more.
USA wont do shit Obama is all talk
No shots fired. Is this guy for real? What about the riots in Kiev?
Ha, nice try by these mainstream media butt-sniffers! First they show you mainland Ukraine, where they are protesting against the pro-Russian President. Then they show you the Crimea, where most people actually WANT Russian intervention. This is slick anti-Putin, anti-Russia propaganda which I'm sure is aimed at trying to foment a clash of civilizations, even though the Cold War is over. The sociopaths in the West really don't know what to do with themselves without war or conflict which has nothing to do with their own nations. A college professor who teaches my friend constantly goes to the Crimea, and he says they all want Russian intervention.
