I would rather they vote for a pro-USA nationalist than a servant of muslim oligarchs like Yanukovych.

Is Yanukovych a Muslim? Anyway, it is strange time when the cause of USA nationalism is fought for in the remote steppes of the Ukraine while the southern border is kept open.

[Tailgunner Joe]

Ukraine's richest man and Yanukovych's main backer is a muslim. Look it up. You don't like muslims and oligarchs screwing over the Russian people but for some reason you don't mind them raping the Ukrainians. I side with Ukrainian nationalists whose loyalty is to their own country rather than to their large hostile neighbor to the east. Ukraine has earned America's friendship fighting by our side in Iraq while Russia continues to help Iranian-backed insurgents kill our troops. America will not allow Russia to bring back the EVIL EMPIRE to life regardless of how much its collapse saddens KGB alumni.

Ukrainian troops were sent there by Kuchma/Yanukovych team BEFORE Orange revolution.

Kuchma only did so to save face after getting caught shipping military equipment to Saddam. His government was also heavily implicated in the UN Oil for Food scam. I for one will continue to support Ukraine against revanchist Russian aggression even if I don't support their leader. I won't condemn the Ukrainians to imperialist Russian slavery just because a pro-Russian is in charge. I will simply oppose Yanukovych's attempts to serve a foreign agenda at his own coutry's expense.

Do you give credit to the Orange side what the pro-Russian side did "to save face after getting caught"? Hmm.

[Tailgunner Joe]

I give credit to those Ukrainian soldiers who served with the US in Iraq. We won't turn our backs on them. Why would we? Why would we ever betray our ally in favor of an enemy who supports all of America's communist and islamic terrorist foes all over the world from the Ayatollahs to Kim-Jong-Il? It is the Ukrainian people I support, not Orange or Blue. I will continue to support Ukrainian nationalism against Russia's "multicultural" neo-imperialism, regardless of which side wins in Ukraine.

Soldiers do not make such decisions they obey orders or perhaps they volunteer when offered lucrative (in their economic situation) bonuses.

Decisions are made by the governments and governments deserves credit or blame.

[Tailgunner Joe]

Exactly. I won't blame them if their leaders are crooks in the pay of muslims who serve foreign interests against their own country.

[Tailgunner Joe]

Likewise I won't blame the Russian people just because they are led by a proud Chekist who arms Red China, the Ayatollahs and Hugo Chavez. I will continue to love the Russian people and try to help free them from their oppressive neo-Soviet socialist government.

Just remember that the recent fall of the Orange coalition was caused by their greed of power and intolerance - if they did not try to exclude the largest parliament faction from EVERY committee, the Oranges would still be in power.

The Orange coalition's breakup had nothing to do with Yanukovych. It was due to the same Timoshenko-Poroshenko feud as before. A grand Regions-NashaUkraine coalition would be inherently unstable and would probably collapse even quicker than the oranges.

Just remember that Yanukovych has a majority -- just so long as he enjoys the support of all the communists and socialists in Ukraine.

"Dirt" is if you smoked weed or hired a hooker some years ago. Robbery, assault and rape makes Yanukovich dirt and filth. His fat swine face and vulgar speech is more revolting.

Being more general, it's mindboggling how Russians don't have simply NORMAL allies- they're all dictators, communists and criminals, and i'm not being dramatic or exaggerating- it's the truth.

[Mazepa]

Yulia has more class than all the Regionals, Socialists and Russian katsap commentators put combined.

One thing for sure, she is prettier than all of them together. And she is richer than Teresa Heinz Kerry :)

"what a nightmare. Geez"
Relax - the Kremlin does not have enough money to buy the votes needed to pass the Constitutional Court legislation AND nominate a PM before the deadline.

Yushchenko will be in control come August.

This is his revenge for the fast one Kuchma pulled .

[M. Espinola]

Putin continues attempting to bully together his own version of a new even more dangerous Soviet Union controlled by him and his Kremlin KGB henchmen.

'Anti-crisis coalition' will work towards Ukraine's admission to EU
Kyiv, July 14 (Interfax-Ukraine) - The foreign policy objectives of the 'anti-crisis coalition' are Ukraine's full membership in the European Union and the completion of the creation of the Common Economic Space.

The objectives are named in the coalition agreement of the Party of Regions, the Communists and the Socialist party published on Friday.

A decision on NATO accession would be made only after a nation-wide referendum, the agreement says.

The coalition is determined to promote the advancement of relations of equality and neighborliness with Russia and other nearby countries.
