“If there is no sign [from Russia] of any capacity to respond to this issue ... there will be a very serious series of steps on Monday.”

Secretary of State John Kerry warned of serious repercussions for Russia on Monday if last-ditch talks over the weekend to resolve the crisis in Ukraine failed to persuade Moscow to soften its stance.
Kerry will travel to London for a Friday meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov ahead of a Sunday referendum vote in the Crimea region to secede from Ukraine and join the Russian Federation.
U.S. and European officials argue that Moscow is orchestrating the referendum and waging an intimidation campaign with thousands of Russian troops controlling the region. If Russian-backed lawmakers in Crimea go through with the Sunday referendum, Kerry said the U.S. and its European allies will not recognize it as legitimate under international law.

LOL!
They already have an out: He didn’t specify which Monday. You’ll see.
LOL, more red lines drawn with dry-erase markers.
Putin is playing chess, this chump and his house boy hussein aren’t even capable of checkers.
OTOH, Kosovo is completely OK. IOW, OK to break off a province of Serbia, but not of the Ukraine? A little Slavic payback happening here.
Deal wit it, NATO.
What a joke. What are going to do? Do you know that the US has Billions in assets in Russia? Billions. Kerry is cruisen for a BRUSIN!! We have to ride their crapy rockets into space!! What a belly laugh .
Or ELSE!*
*i.e. a memo shall be issued strongly indicating that another memo may follow in the event that the first memo was ignored.
Bwahaha! Kerry really *is* as stupid as he looks.
Putin was involved in the military at all levels his entire life.
Kerry decided to sit in the kumbaya circle with the hippies.

John “Lurch” Kerry, Barry Obama’s enforcer, meets with Putin.
Kerry will threaten more things than he threatened before.
John F’in Kerry is so out of his league. Or he’ll do...what? Take the international fag army he recruited to fight global warming, and turn it on Russia? Will they ride into battle in their Chevy Volts?
Pfft...
OMG. Kerry needs another facelift (his late one was a failure), doubled of a plastic surgery of his bone chin. LOL
Putin doesn’t want to march in and take over all of the Ukraine. A reliable toady in Kiev is satisfactory.
Kerry-a milquetoast poofter..
Why on earth would they want to take him out? If they had used every trick in the KGB playbook, they could not have infiltrated the U.S. S.O.S. with a more useful (to them) operative.
