Obam, via his front man McCain, tried to get the Baltic states to break the agreement for South-Stream.... Yats was furious , he knew what this would mean for Ukraine if they didn’t get the revenues needed.

It’s no accident when he couldn’t get the votes in Parliament regarding passing who gets control of the oil.
Unfortunately Yats would soon learn too late that he was caught in the middle of the “ Former Oligarch” oil wars....and all the rest of the corruption inside and outside Ukraine.... Course he was probably a part of it since he was in the Ukraine Gov. prior to the revolution.....but he walked just the same.

I'd love a second opinion on what South Stream really does in the way of altering Ukraine income but people don't seem to know. I had it figured at between 40% and 50% on my own looking at the capacities and destinations but I gather than if that's in the same ballpark RT states it just has to be wrong.

I honestly don't know how Ukraine can do what the IMF is demanding of them without much, much, lower energy prices for themselves, and much higher income from transit fees to keep the people from going wild again.

I don't see why people in Western Ukraine are any more docile than they've been in the past and they were in the streets of Kiev in what, 2004, 2010, and most of 2013? Every time over the top people in government needing changed.

Ukraine is a tar baby and anyone who gets stuck to it regrets having done so.
