See...that makes me think that Vlad will take action as soon as the Olympics are done.

But...remember that the Paralympics are supposed to happen in March in Sochi as well. Do you think he will risk that?

Yes, remember that Syria was all about a pipeline that was proposed to run thru its country and put the Ukrainian pipeline at risk. It was not about weapons. That’s why the French were so involved. Everyone wanted that pipeline but Russia.

This puts the main source of domestic revenue at risk to Vlad. He and his ruthless interior minister will not allow that.
