Maidan receives more and more confirmation about presence of Russian troops in Ukraine.
Yesterday at night between 1:00 and 4:00 four airplanes with Russian military troops (approx. 400-450 persons) landed in Ivano-Frankivsk. They were dressed into uniform of Ukrainian troops and were sent to Kyyiv by buses. At the moment of planes arrival, the airport was surrounded by military forces.

Hmmmmm.
Uh - Oh.............
Is this from a "DEBKA" type news org?
Of course "the west" won't react. Putin is doing whatever he wants.
Here is a confirmation of this from another (US) source:
former Colorado Congressman Bob Schaffer:"
RUSSIAN TROOPS IN UKRAINE"
MP Julia Tymoshenko confirmed that many of the guards are indeed Russians dressed in Ukrainian militia uniforms. They're bedecked in riot gear -- helmets, face shields, 3' riot shields, black uniforms, etc.
The presence of Russian troops here is a very serious international incident. This causes great tension between the U.S. and Russia.

Hmmm. . . .
This could get interesting.
Back in the USSR...
I don't get that last sentence.
What do you think, Grzegorz ? Russia deploying troops just to protect its assets there, or is it some way to strong-arm the Ukrainian voters into complacency ?
They deploy thier forces for the same reason they did it in Chehoslovakiya..
To shot people dead..
Russians protecting president Kuchma who is hated by 99% of population, and Kuchma doesn't trust Ukrainian special forces to shoot thier own citizens..
Putin is re building the Soviet Empire, one satellite at a time.
The man is rotten
Damn Putin, I always saying that he is commie bastard. Dont be afraid Lizol will kick their asses. :-) Seriously Russians once again showed what a assholes they are!!
PING
I also send an application, but those #*|*# didn't take me.
