Hardly language becoming a high official and it certainly is not very helpful in deescalating a situation that seems to be very dangerously morphing into something that could develop into World War III with Obama sending nuclear capable bombers to Europe and Russia cutting off the gas to the deadbeats in Kiev yesterday. The Russians aren't stupid, they have seen this movie before and the Sunday comments of Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov are telling:
The Ukrainian authorities "act with impunity" on various issues because they are "shielded by our Western partners, or by some of them, at least," and their "irreconcilable" position in talks on natural gas trade with Russia is one way this "impunity" manifests itself in, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Sunday.
"We hope this arrogant and uncompromising position is not backed by a third power, although we have some reasons to think so."
"It's a source of worry for us that this impunity manifests itself increasingly often," he said, mentioning repeated arrests of Russian journalists and "the disgusting attack on the Russian Embassy" on Saturday.
Short of the Kiev fascists being reigned in by some sort of adult leadership on behalf of the USA!, USA!, USA! which has yet to manifest itself in any way the use of Hitlerian rhetoric won't be the only similarity to World War II - the body count has the potential to be astronomical when millions are cremated by some incompetent idiot in the US or NATO losing their temper and unleashing the nukes. As for Yatsenyuk, I guess that he didn't get the memo that dropping White Phosphorous on civilians is a war crime which ranks pretty high on the scale of "subhuman" acts.
