The Luhansk region has plenty of Ukrainians but few outside the small villages speak Ukrainian. My wife's family in Alchevsk are Russian speakers but are nationalistic Ukrainians. Of course there would be more Ukrainians if Moscow hadn't given certain orders in 1933... UkraineCirca1933 photo HolodomorHigher_zpsbc5286b7.jpg

Kiev is facing Ukraine’s disintegration. Events seem to be taking on a life of their own without any prompting from Russia.

If this spreads, Kiev will find itself ruling over a shrunken country of less than 20 million or so centered on the West.

What can it do about it? Force is out of the question. Ukraine will have to become a federal state with both Ukrainian and Russian enjoying official status, with full autonomy for all its regions.

There is no alternative. Unless Kiev wants to see large chunks of the country lost to Russia.

No one is going to stop Putin. This is step 4 of many. Georgia, Chechnya, and Crimea came first. Putin fits the text book definition of a fascist yet he gets support here and anywhere a “strong leader” is admired. Mussolini and Hitler had a great many American admirers in the 1930s.

It appears Czar Putin is ready for a second helping of Ukrainian pie. These “spontaneous” bully boys who storm government buildings and hang Russian flags are Russian military Spetsnaz units infiltrated across the Ukrainian borders. Putin will use these demonstrations to send in the regular army to protect Russians as he did in the Crimea.

Meanwhile, our fearless boy-president will jaunt off to a campaign raiser and later, Japan.

Seems like the ethnic Russians are more Urban than the Ukrainians, I see the problem. Sort of like Philadelphia.

Ukraine's acting president called an emergency security meeting in response.

Other than calling meetings and posting things on facebook this chap doesn't do anything.

His government has never won an election, it came to power on violence, its not legitimate at all.

Clearly these are highly organized operations who’s direction eminates from a central source. An important fact that the BBC refuses to mention or even speculate upon because it wouldn’t fit their agenda.

Through reporting the event as it occurs making it appear as if they are sporatic occurances rather than speculating on a agenda driven by a capitalist pig determined to control europes energy fit well with his supporters posting here as well as the rest of europe.

Yuri Butusov comments further,
“When I read the critics avakova, Nalyvaichenko, Yatseniuk and Up, I was always amazed that caused all the problems in the South-East of critics believe is a lack of political will and failure to give commands.

Dai team! Why no team! Let’s shoot!

Hysteria is not on the tape. If someone believes that the demoralized and corrupt system of law enforcement and State officials in the South-East, something has changed decisively over a month and a half, he is deeply mistaken. Only system is built.

In Ukraine there is no force capable to suppress diversionary actions on the South-East. Yet.

Such forces are created. Storm tanks and special forces with the western regions not because Russian saboteurs hired hordes of local titušek hide behind as human shields. They are armed. If you go to storm the bandits in buildings-will get what he wants Russian propaganda-corpses, explosions, a picture of unmanaged chaos in the South-East.

War is the last hope of Putin to derail elections in Ukraine. And the leadership of the country is desperately trying to keep the situation from military action. Because the war would cancel the election. And only an idiot does not understand and needs to bomb, shoot and smooth out.

A meeting of the NATIONAL SECURITY and DEFENSE COUNCIL, all the forces and means are in readiness. Develop solutions that will solve the problem. Options and the most stringent measures. Tomorrow NATO experts arrive to Kiev, no one throws and doesn’t drain, is a struggle for Ukraine. Just a shame to hear screams of panic. Do not disgrace.” (Translated by Bing)
