We reported of a strange incident that took place just after the Ukraine presidential coup, namely that .... "in a mysterious operation under the cover of night, Ukraine's gold reserves were promptly loaded onboard an unmarked plane, which subsequently took the gold to the US."
"at 2:00 am, a transport plane took off took off from Boryspil airport. According to Boryspil staff, prior to the plane's appearance, four trucks and two cargo minibuses arrived at the airport all with their license plates missing. Fifteen people .... stepped out, some armed with machine guns. These people loaded the plane with more than forty heavy boxes.
SNIP
Airport officials who saw this mysterious "special operation" immediately notified the administration of the airport, which however strongly advised them "not to meddle in other people's business."
Later, the editors were called by one of the senior officials of the former Ministry of Income and Fees, who reported that, according to him, tonight on the orders of one of the "new leaders" of Ukraine, all the gold reserves of the Ukraine were taken to the United States.
Needless to say there was no official confirmation of any of this taking place, and in fact our report, in which we mused if the "price of Ukraine's liberation" was the handover of its gold to the Fed at a time when Germany was actively seeking to repatriate its own physical gold located at the bedrock of the NY Fed, led to the usual mainstream media mockery.
Until now.
In an interview on Ukraine TV, none other than the head of the Ukraine Central Bank made the stunning admission that "in the vaults of the central bank there is almost no gold left. There is a small amount of gold bullion left, but it's just 1% of reserves."

I'm shocked.. Just SHOCKED, I tell ya.
The US needs some gold to give to Germany, since we sold theirs.
Didn’t zero say ‘he would be freer to act (or not) after the election’? (2012)
If the plane came to the USA then what does that mean?
If plane landed in US, as article said it came to U S, did it land in Chicago? Where?
Okay, now what was the disposition of that gold?
Was it exchanged for cash, or stored because the Ukrainian government knew Russia would be moving across it’s borders and wanted to protect it’s holdings?
Let us know when you’re over being shocked.
“The US needs some gold to give to Germany, since we sold theirs.”
We have a winner, folks!!!
“I heard it was replaced with chocolate gold coins”
Bitcoins...
The State of Texas asked for the state’s gold which was being stored in NY to be returned to Texas. Good luck with that.
Is anyone certain whose plane it was?
or maybe ..... Mena ... ?
Germany asked for its 300 tons of gold back from the US depository.
They got 37 tons.
Now reports say the German leadership is satisfied and they don’t want more back?
I wonder what is really going on behind the scenes.
“Is anyone certain whose plane it was?”
MH370
And ... its gone.
Vladimir Putin. I got a man-crush.
I read the the Fed offered something like $15 Trillion in backstops to European banks in 08/09.
The irony of course is that it is all funny money in the end.
Moving 20 tons of gold from Ukraine to the US only took one plane and a few hours work.
So why has Germany only received five tons of its gold from America?
Oh right, logistical problems.
I hear Ft. Knox has plenty of empty space to store it.
