Russia could launch a 'full scale' invasion that would see troops overrun Ukraine in hours, a senior security official warned today.
The secretary of Ukraine's National Security and National Defence Committee Andriy Parubiy claimed Russia has 80,000 troops, 280 tanks and 170 aircraft massed on the border ready to invade.
'They are adding to this military potential,' he said. 'We have a critical situation on the entire southeastern border. The Russian army is only two to three hours from Kiev.'
Ukraine's defences would be incapable in the face of a Russian invasion, he said.

Real question needing a simple answer:
If the Russian military invades eastern Ukraine, will they be regarded as invaders, or as liberators?
One man’s invader, is another man’s liberator.
I don't see Putin as invading....others do...guess it has to do with how one views the entire situation.
I see Putin as defending his country form aggressive moves of EU/NATO/USA by them putting US Missile Sites in Ukraine, which is the condition of them helping Ukraine....also their interfering with the flow of oil through Ukraine...which is 50% of Russia's GPD...not to mention his ports and access to the sea.
Nasty business being played by our country....Putin warned them long ago to stop their advancement....
Now they're going after Venezuela’s resources and to topple leadership...just passed this Thursday a bill to send ‘millions’ to prop up the protests opposition in Venezuela....same game..different country.
Our money and work is being used for International Agenda's we have no say in whatsoever. We're simply a means of cash flow for our Gov. to Play on the International Stage in a game we rarely, if at all are aware of, and that is deliberately kept from us.

Another video from Donetsk:

On March 13, a group of far-right extremists attacked a peaceful demonstration. The radicals armed with traumatic weapons (e.g. pneumatic pistols) and bats began to arrive to Donetsk from other regions of Ukraine the day before.
And now something else:
Gregor Gysi, a parliamentary head of the largest lower-house opposition party in Germany has spoken out on Thursday against German Chancellor’s Angela Merkel support of the coup-appointed Ukrainian government.
“They formed a new government..... Immediately recognized by president Obama by the EU and German government as well. Miss Merkel! The vice- prime minister, the defense minister, minister of agriculture, environment minister, the attorney general.. They are fascists!” he stated.
Gysi was furious that Germany is doing nothing to address the extreme right threat in Ukraine.
“With fascists in Ukraine we are doing nothing. Svoboda party has tight contacts with NPD and other Nazi parties in Europe.. The leader of this party, Oleg Tyagnibok, has recalled that literally.”
The Left’s leader went on to read a quote from Tyagnibok, where he publically urged people in Ukraine to “Grab the guns, fight the Russian pigs, the Germans, the Jews pigs and others.”
“And with these Svoboda people we are still in conversation! I find it as a scandal!” Gysi said in full Germany parliment.
Gysi also commented on NATO’s expansion to the east and called on the German government and the West to acknowledge the “legitimate security interests of Russia.”
“When we restored Germany’s unity, the US, German and other foreign ministers proclaimed there will be no NATO expansion to the east. But this promise has been broken. There was an expansion of NATO in Russia’s direction,” said Gregor Gysi in an outburst directed at Merkel.
“Security in Europe, there are neither without nor against Russia, but with Russia. When the crisis is over one day, an advantage could be that international law is finally respected again from all sides,” Gysi concluded.
The world is starting to see this for what it is....hard pill to swallow for we Americans... I still choke on it and my heart breaks what we are kept from knowing.
Unfortunately these "movers" have been operating for so long orchestrating these uprisings behind the scenes...( deeply rooted throughout the world and fully networked among themselves)...that once recognized it's too complicated and too far advanced for leaders that get it to stop it. They make it complicated for the reason to keep people from stopping it.
I view McCain as one of the most vile men in our country..second to Obama...He's one of the hands Obama plays even more so the brain-dead Biden....I detest the man and he should have been tried for treason long ago...further he handed our country to Obama.
McCains had lots of practice being deceptive....and still fools the general public. He's one of the worst "in view"...as Obama....makes you think how vile they are working out of sight!
Doing photo ops like this he plasters around the world...
McCain and Derbin with our Military in Kiev's US Embassy...doing more damage behind closed doors...
Thank you.
Then there's the Tartar's...check this out..with Nato leadership...
Crimean Tatar leader & Ukrainian MP met NATO Deputy Secretary General Ambassador Vershbow in Bussels today.
“Unfortunately these “movers” have been operating for so long orchestrating these uprisings behind the scenes...( deeply rooted throughout the world and fully networked among themselves)...that once recognized it’s too complicated and too far advanced for leaders that get it to stop it. They make it complicated for the reason to keep people from stopping it.”
That’s what comes of the arrogance in sponsoring a coup d’etat against a democratically elected leader.
Just imagine what could happened if a brawl like the one in Donetsk took place on Pennsilvanya Avenue in Washington DC...
You’d count dozens of killed by the police forces.
To tuck under your cap.....
The US ‘Federal Reserve reported’ an unprecedented $100 billion dollar drop in the quantity of foreign-owned Treasury bonds it stores.
This prompted speculation that a major holder of US dollars, most likely Russia, had shifted its dollar holdings overseas to a non-US bank .....to prevent US authorities from confiscating the funds.
And Vlad say “what are you going to do about it?”
I would have thought so before...not now as even in arresting bad guys our police forces hands are tied.
If you noted in Donetsk the police made little actual moves to stop this. Why didn't they just put them back on the buses and ship them back out....further I saw some of the protesters “directing” the police to stand back?? Amazingly they complied.
"Peaceful protesters on Maidan"...
... with the support of the US Sub-Secretary of State Nuland, EU Foreign Minister, Baroness Ashton, John "Calamity" McCain, the US Ambassador's in Kiev visits to support them - $5 billion from US to support a violent coup d'état in Ukraine - murders on Maidan (done by someone from the team who is now call themselves "legitimate goverment") - unarmed Berkut SWAT was called "murderers", and now inciting violence throughout a country against the ethnic Russian and Russophone population (30% of the total ).
Did I miss anything?
Thank you.
I remember reading early on in the protests that people admitted being bused in and paid $100 a day to “protest”. Where did that money come from? How many were paid?
Who owns these NATO people?

So here it goes: in the just reported latest data, for the week ended March 12, Treasury'ss held in custody by the Fed dropped to $2.855 trillion: a drop of $104.5 billion. This was the biggest drop of Treasurys held by the Fed on record, i.e., foreigners were really busy selling.
The selling over the last week coincides with the latest US employment statistics, a run of weak data from China and the escalation of the situation in Crimea and Ukraine. Russia has threatened to respond with sanctions of its own should economic measures be imposed by the EU and the US after the referendum in Crimea this weekend. Russia currently holds $138.6bn of USTs and the country has been a net seller for a combined $11.3bn of USTs over the last two months for when data is available. China sold $47.8bn alone in December.
