Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine Andriy Parubiy on your page in the social network Facebook wrote that according to the decision of the National Security Council military mobilization happening across Ukraine.
"Just rang my assistants voyenkomatu with orders to arrive at 8:00 am as planned mobilization.
According to the decision of the National Security Council mobilization happening across the country, "- wrote Parubiy.
Recall, March 1, Federation Council supported the appeal Russian President Vladimir Putin and agreed to the introduction of the Russian Armed Forces in the Crimea.
Acting President of Ukraine Turchynov said that the Armed Forces of Ukraine is given in full combat readiness, and the Foreign Ministry of Ukraine transferred the appeal to NATO to consider the use of all opportunities to protect the territorial integrity of Ukraine
Ukraine Gov calling for the balloon to go up as of 8AM local time.
How will the military respond?
We must pray for the people of Ukraine, that the damn Russkies led by that Czar wannabe do not consume them!
A proper response, at this point, would be to send warships offshore of every Russian interest in this hemisphere - starting with Cuba.

Ukraine had a press conference at the UN and almost nobody showed up.
I guess this story isn’t nearly as important as gays in Uganda or something
“A proper response, at this point, would be to send warships offshore of every Russian interest in this hemisphere - starting with Cuba.”
Well, we all know THAT isn’t going to happen, not with this pansy brigade in the White House.
3 hours .. 37 minutes approximately till 8 a.m. local time
C’mon!
Oscars. CNN starting coverage.
Really, at the doorsteps of a huge mess (WW3 even) and the media whores go for frigging entertainment!
Russian army will take Crimea with no resistance. fait accompli
Past that, it is anybody’s guess.
The mock insulted reaction to Obozo’s “warning” tells me that Vlad will take the whole thing.
If so, it will be a bloody sob.
It would be better if he took the Crimea and talked to those left before crushing.
He knows the US under Obama will do nothing. Nor will the EU.
This is an Obama Putin Kabuki Dance.
Yeah, 99 Red Balloons if we are not careful
What does the boss say?
heh
Along with your suggestion I would impose a no fly zone over Syria, green light an Israeli attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities, and have the Ukrainian army close Russia’s pipelines to the Black Sea. Hit Putin in the wallet.
There are thousands of US citizens in Ukraine. Putin isn’t the only one who can play the just protecting our citizens card.
It wouldn’t surprise me to some significant NATO ground troops now based inside former FSU countries. This could end up backfiring on Putin if it wakes up the sleeping EU.
Vlad will not have the song written in German. It will be in Cyrillic alphabet and sang in Russian.
“There are thousands of US citizens in Ukraine. Putin isnt the only one who can play the just protecting our citizens card.”
LOL! You have forgotten who is president, obviously.
We have a major US airbase just 90 minutes from Sevastopol. A Reagan-like Prez would have already had a “humanitarian Mission” on the ground at the airport when the Russians arrived. But alas, the sheeple were told to vote for handouts, instead.
I don't expect to see German troops make any great movement to the East.

After this adventure by Putin I could see a major new NATO command in the Baltics involving Germany. Having a large NATO force boots on the ground in the FSU would be a slap right back at Putin. I know Lithuania would roll out the blue carpet for it.
Putin is close to pulling the pin here. I think he will stop with the Crimea and try to destabilize the rest of Ukraine.
He will take the Criema—make it part of Russia—then he will need a land link yp Russia—then?
Watch as China now makes a move on South China seas Islands—Just to keep us off ballance—as the T-90s roll toward Kiev.
