View original postNow would be a great time for President Obama to admit that two superpowers aren't going to go to war to stop the other from doing something. And in that spirit, he should go back to a very forward leaning posture with placing ballistic missile defense systems in Poland contrary to Russia's protests. The Russians really don't have a leg to stand on, especially now that they have ostracized themselves politically. Plus, with Russia invading neighbor states, its a great time to get global support for setting up a shield between Europe and Russia.
Don't Make me Laugh, Mr. Obama

Well, we split on that then - I most certainly do not support such an annexation.

Yes. Dropping "the" is an anti-Russian move. It will always be the Ukraine.

Just because there's an article in Russian doesn't mean there has to be one in English.

I don't think it's limited to Crimea. They will likely occupy Eastern Ukraine as well.

My plan of action is to let Putin have Ukraine. We have no interests there. *NM*

I like their criticism of Putin generally, but I don't buy the "enemy of my enemy" position.

You assume that the Ukraine's borders should be inviolate.

Russia signed an agreement to not violate those borders
