Romanian military units moving towards Ukrainian border
Voice Of Russia ^

Posted on 04/27/2014 5:28:34 PM PDT by kronos77

According to information available, in Romania military units are moving towards the eastern borders - a military echelon loaded with anti-aircraft guns, trucks and ground -to- air missile systems has moved via Bucharest towards the Black Sea port of Constanta. The military units are needed for conducting joint military exercises with the participation of the US servicemen and four American F-16 fighter jets, according to the Romanian Defense Ministry officials told newsmen.

"The maneuvers will be held in compliance with the plan on strategic partnership existing between Romania and the US," Romanian Minister of National Defense Mircea Dusa announced. Earlier Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, and Estonia asked NATO to strengthen its military presence in their countries because of the Ukrainian crisis. As soon as it broke out, the AWACS planes started their daily flights over the southern part of Romania, taking off from the NATO air base Gellenkirchen in Germany in order to conduct radar intelligence operations which covered the southern part of Ukraine, Moldova and Crimea. At the same time, Romanian President Trian Basescu satisfied Washington’s request to increase the number of marines on the NATO air base in Germany from 1,000 to 1,600. In addition, the Romanian authorities asked official Washington to deploy a squadron of US fighter jets on their territory for the period until 2017.

The plans of an increase in the US military presence in Romania are being criticized by both politicians and the public in the country. An adviser to Romanian Prime Minister Ionel Blanculescu voiced his fears, saying that the US had turned Romania into a "good target" in case of military escalation in the region.

There is a possibility that the FSB is posting on FR as part of their propaganda war.

I’ll me nice and say you have a vivid imagination. The reason being is that is what it takes to believe the Russian disinformation. I especially liked the blurb about the Ukrainian navy flagship on the way back after exercises with NATO that had defected and then, after docking in Odessa, it turned out the crew had never defected.

Lets seee...

US/NATO stance is that in Ukraine is cool nice government that is up against cruel dastardly Russian invaders.

- Now we know that there are over 8 MILLION Russians in Ukraine and that Kiev regime controls nothing outside government building in Kiev. Plus Babushkas made elite Ukrainian paratrooper unit surrender or retread - later to be disbanded.

There is an awesome amount of Russian disinformation on the web, blogs and such. Some threads are 90% based on 90% Russian Government sources.
If the Romanians are mobilizing, then Poland is not far behind.
When, not if, this blows up, it will blow up big, fast and all over the world.
After the Russians starved 3 or 4 million Ukrainians to death in the 1930s, the vacant spots were filled in with imported Russians.

Novorossiya “New Russia” (current southern Ukraine, transferred by the Communists in 1922 from Russia to Ukraine; previously depopulated by the Muslim Turk invasions; and settled by Russians starting 1700s) was the focus so the COMMUNIST starvation of people in southern Russia, Novorossiya, and Ukraine. “The Russians” never starved “the Ukrainians”, and saying so is anti-Russian propaganda.

“And so far lets say 90% out of all that Russian media said - was true.”

Let’s not, and let’s not say we did. Let’s stay with the truth that Putin and the Russian Government are war criminals threatening the rest of the world with a world war and nuclear destruction if we do not surrender to the Russian intimidation and disinformation as Russia trashes the principle of territorial integrity and independence of sovereign nations. Let’s say Putin and the Russian Government are perpetrating evil and intolerable acts of aggression for which they should be punished in the same manner as the leadership of Germany’s NAZI Third Reich. Let’s say the long suffering proletariat of Russia need to rise up and remove the evil from their government before they suffer even more grave consequences from their leaders’ criminal adventures in aggression against the rest of the world.

Eastern and Southern Ukraine have been polled multiple times, the most recent in February or March, and they always come back the same. Ethnic Russians, who also took part in the Maidan protests, do not, as a majority, support annexation or federalization. Only a small minority does. There is no popular support for the Russian rent-a-mobs.

There sure are a lot of Putinista's here all the sudden. I can't decide if most are just crazy paulbot, libertarian types who want an isolationist foreign policy (and believe everything is about fiat currency and gold reserves) or if some folks have gone over the edge with Obama hate and are now supporting our enemies just to spite him. I guess there is also some social conservatives that admire his stand against the gay agenda. But they should remember and make no mistake, Putin is a nasty piece work and the enemy of my enemy is NOT always a friend.

““The Russians” never starved “the Ukrainians”, and saying so is anti-Russian propaganda.”

You are a despicable liar posting such disinformation. Soviet Russians participated in the deliberate starvation of millions of Ukrainians in the genocidal crime known as the Holodomor.

I assume you are referring to the Russian monarchy here, not the Bolshevik regime. The Bolshevik regime most certainly did do so.

I’ve seen those results. Most Ukrainians including ethnic Russians do not want Putler in charge.
