Russian Naval Ships are getting close
maybe to take the Ex-President away if he is still there, or something else. The Ukraine nation is around 48million in population but its bankrupt. With so called Elections not going on until May anything can happen. http://news.sky.com/story/1216255/uk...or-mass-murder Link For Kizzy http://www.theguardian.com/world/201...est-yanukovich Last edited by arista; 24-02-2014 at 06:32 PM. |

I suspect President Viktor Yanukovych will soon be back in power, courtesy of several divisions of Russian tanks, invited in by the Russian speaking population.
The Russians have already said that what has happened is a threat to it's security. When the invasion takes place, any time soon, that means the Paralympic games in Sochi will be cancelled, but who cares about them..

Yanukovych must shoulder a lot of the blame for his ineptitude in handling this situation but there are other forces and agendas at work here, Russia knows it and is furious with Yanukovych's handling of this crisis. But Putin is probably even more furious with the West in interfering with a Country so closely aligned to Russia and so close geographically. He will not allow Ukraine to become hostile to Russia, too many of Russia's interests are at stake here not least their access to Black sea ports and Med and Atlantic. Putin will be considering sending in some form of Military force but is mindful of the consequences of over playing his hand. One thing is certain though he will not sit idly by and watch the west tiptoe in through the backdoor. !!

Just a thought but it's funny how the Syrian civil war has gone very quiet recently, perhaps the west has given up on that particular front and are now turning their attention to the Ukraine.
the Coverage on Sky really is blanket coverage at moment......24 News channels struggle to find enough news to fill the air time so we get the same scenes, the same interviews and the same pictures put out constantly on a loop every 15 mins, really annoying showing the same segment over and over again.

It's pretty clear now that Russia doesn't effectively run Ukraine like was being presented at the start of this crisis, if they did you can be sure that Yanukovych wouldn't have fallen so easily. It's odd that whenever Russia looks to protect its interests in countries they're accused of just imposing their tyranny on them, and when any leader considers their interests to be more aligned with Russia they're accused of just being a puppet of Moscow. It's entirely reasonable why Russia would want a certain amount of influence in Ukraine and it's understandable why a lot of Ukrainians would support these ties with the East, considering that the country was a part of Russian for centuries.
At least the UK so far is approaching this pretty hesitantly, we don't want to rush into backing what seems like quite a diverse opposition with some sinister elements in a complex situation like this |

I attended a panel discussion this evening, featuring four Ukrainians (a journalist, an activist, a student and a priest) who were talking about the events in Ukraine at the moment. Very informative and eye opening.

Yeah the Crimea is pretty undeniably Russian; ethnically, geographically and politically. Only even became Ukraine in the 50s when Khrushchev gave it to them as a strange present when he was apparently drunk.
