U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry provided Russia with a stern warning Thursday evening — start complying with the de-escalation agreement brokered last week in Geneva, or face the wrath of new U.S. sanctions.

Kerry delivered a terse statement from the State Department's briefing room late Thursday, during which he blasted Russia for not taking a "single step in the right direction" toward de-escalation. He criticized Russian President Vladimir Putin for what he called outlandish claims that the Internet is a "CIA plot."

Putin knows he can destroy this administration with his extensive KGB dossiers. Threats mean nothing.

I dare wonder if Obama would ever consider embroiling the US in a regional conflict with Russia on their turf.

No, because then the Liberal Messiah would become the modern-day LBJ. Liberals and Conservatives would loathe him. He ego would not be able to take it.

Either they assume Putin is running everything in East Ukraine (a fact not in evidence) or they're telling him to stop moving his own troops around in his own country.

So, what de-escalation is Russia not complying with, they didn't initiate an "anti-terrorist" offensive after the agreement was made, Kiev did.

If Kerry has evidence Russia has people in the Ukraine he should put it on the table instead of running his mouth.

That's not a final warning. This is a final warning.

The problem is that the Alinsky “Rules for Radicals” don’t work against Communists (Such as Putin and XI Jinping) who wrote the book on this in the first place.

"U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry provided Russia with a stern warning . . . start complying with . . . or face the wrath of new U.S. sanctions . . . Kerry delivered a terse statement . . . blasted Russia . . . criticized Russian President Vladimir Putin . . ."

I'm looking forward to the day when we hear the final empty but sternly worded warning from this administration, and America has a chance to be respected again. I suspect Putin on his off time has staffers read these warnings aloud to amuse him.

Kerry tonight: "Let’s get real → The Geneva Agreement is not open to interpretation. It is not vague. It is not optional." The Russians have been very clear, since hours after the Geneva Agreement was passed, that they expected the Right-Sector militia to be disarmed. And the Ukrainians have been just as clear that they had no intention of doing that.

I harbor a suspicion that Soros and his globalist gay marriage buddies in Europe stand to lose catastrophic amounts of money over this. Keep American troops at home, let Europe jump in. NO BLOOD FOR SOROS!

I speak Russian and I’ve been following the federal postings for jobs requiring Russian proficiency on usajobs.gov ever since this thing started with Ukraine. There’s essentially NOTHING for defense/intelligence/foreign service. There were a couple for the Park Service (bi-lingual tour guides), the Social Security Administration (telephone customer service reps), and a few others. But essentially nothing in terms of support of military. Check it out. Weeks and weeks have passed now and the Obama Administration has done zippo to beef up those key capabilities. These people truly are despicable.

Like that clip -

whenever I see Putin laugh - just a real laugh, it reminds me, I can’t remember ever seeing O’bummer with a genuine laugh - always seems affected...like he's tolerating people - is there ANYthing genuine about him?

If you're not careful, john, we're going to lose all our Soyuz frequent-flyer miles and then we'll never earn that free flight to the space station.
