John Kerry: Russia has until Monday to reverse course in Ukraine
Washington Examiner ^ | 13 March 2014 | Susan Crabtree

Posted on 03/13/2014 11:59:01 AM PDT by Errant

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.

What a joke. What are going to do?

I heard, somewhere, that Alaska used to be part of Russia.

Anyone know if that's true???

Let's see...

We've got a slain blond woman in South Africa. Got to see that she gets justice...
We've got a missing plane from a MUSLIM country that we can agonize over...
We have some Israeli's that we can rake over the coals for fighting back...
Rodman can go back to NK...

And, we'll always have Paris.

Likely plenty amoebas swam up that big ol' snoze, as many times as he's taken a tumble off a boat.

That’s the problem with weak-azzed Demscum Presidents: They are so weak that our enemies keep pushing, figuring that we won’t do anythiing. And they are correct.

That is, until something so bad happens that we have to act. By then we are dealing with a real mess, one with no clear way out. One of two things happens: (1) We don’t act. Lather, rinse, repeat. (2) We finally do act. And then a REAL war happens.

This will probably be another iteration of (1), which means (2) will be that much worse when it inevitably happens,

Apparently, in demscums’ deluded world, “Peace through Strength” only applies with respect to conservatives...

PS President Obama, the world is LAUGHING at you and your incompetent Secretary of State. You are a JOKE, one that will get a lot of people killed all over the world. PLEASE RESIGN, you moron, and take Biden and your entire cabinet with you! /like that will happen...

"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.

That'll scare the crap out of Putin."

Referendum poster in Simferopol, the capital of Crimea. It reads: "Together with Russia. Referendum, March 16"

Obama is the kind of weak loser that would offer to pay Putin off on the condition Putin allows a certain level of “tough talk” go. I can totally see the Obama administration doing that. Pretending to be all big and bad-ass (not that they have),,and paying Putin off to go along.
