Who knew it first? Sarah Palin did :p

Update: Putin’s desire to re-build the Soviet Union as a colonial power were seen as rhetoric until now, argues his biographer Masha Gessen. Now they realise he is serious and this will mean Russian aggression abroad and repression at home.

Uncle Putin wins again. Flawless victory.

yes till now at least...

I can't imagine a single scenario where Putin would lose.

It won't end in WW III, so Putin already won. They won't force him out of Crimea, and he won't leave it peacefully. It's Russia now.

Now it's a question of how much will Putin gain. Only Crimea? Or maybe also whole East Ukraine?

If there will be another big riot in Ukraine...Putin will take what he wants.

Look, America and Europe are left with nothing in their hands. International (geo)politics is all about leverage. Europe and the States have no real threat against Russia. They say - just like they did with South Ossetia - that Russia shouldn't do it, but what are they going to do if Russia continues? Nothing. Without leverage, you can't make a serious threat.

video of Putin's pigs!

But it's rather annoying that you always assume that I always without questions believe what the mainstream media is saying.

It is simple, you always ask for reliable resource and by reliable resource you always mean mainstream website. Dont tell me that it is not true.... you told me more times on some sources that are not reliable.

And as I said, a lot of reliable information will never be in your mainstream news, cos most of them are controlled and have western point of view.

I read and I listen both sides always, mainstream media and not controlled media :-)

A serious criminal and a mass murderer, no wonder Russia is backing up this guy, as they often support the wrong leader:

Janukovič is criminal leader but why you call him mass murderer ? I dont know if he killed people at the past but if you mean just the fact that he called state police to defend against terrorists and payed blind people to "overthrow" government you are wrong. This act you can call maybe wrong political decision, but you can not say that he is murder.

Obama made several wars and killed ten of thousands people by his decisions on last years but nobody on the world call him murder.

Or what you mean ?

Wats the goals of Putin?
Krimea?
half (east) Ukraine?
to kick nazi from kiev and restore Yanoukovic?

I wonder...

if you say that you always look on both sides you have no right to call these people terrorist cause as well we should call russian soldiers like that

name terrorist in this case is forced by russian gov-ment media ;]

It is simple, you always ask for reliable resource and by reliable resource you always mean mainstream website. Dont tell me that it is not true....

Yeah, if it's a site in a language I don't know, and there is no information about that site in a language I do understand (Dutch, English, French, German), I cannot consider that a reliable source.

Obama made several wars and killed ten of thousands people by his decisions on last years but nobody on the world call him murder.

Obama is indeed a mass murderer and has committed crimes against humanity. Let that be clear. To Den Haag with him.

And as I said, a lot of reliable information will never be in your mainstream news, cos most of them are controlled and have western point of view.

Please, you really think your media is better? Don't make me laugh ....

And yes, Yanukovich is a mass murderer and should be brought to Den Haag. There he can defend himself for the murders.

poor ukranians

there are in the middle between west and east oligarchs...


charles yanukovich is not a nice guy but i think in the most of countries they will shoot if organized demonstators go to the parliemant etc and first of all in usa...
