Arseny Yatsenyuk said the government was sending a bill to MPs urging that Ukraine's non-bloc status be cancelled.

The remarks come as Nato holds an emergency meeting to discuss the crisis in eastern Ukraine.

The West has stepped up its accusations of direct Russian involvement in the conflict, following advances by pro-Russian rebels.

On Thursday Nato released satellite images it said showed Russian forces inside Ukraine. and said more than 1,000 troops were operating there.

No one poked the bear. No one attacked Russia.

Sorry. You didn't pay attention. After McCain stood next to (among others) neo-Nazis and called for the overthrow of the legit, elected Ukraine government, this took place:

McCain visited Ukraine and a pro-Russia dictator shot up protesters and got overthrown. Where in your post is the poking of the bear? Nowhere.

So what?

Parliament voted to remove the corrupt looter from office, his own party threw him out.

NATO will hem and haw and avert its gaze until it’s too late. Which is exactly what Ukraine should have known it would do. We’re in an age of colossal cowardice.

>>>>>>a pro-Russia dictator shot up protesters<<<<<<

Actually, snipers who were murdering protesters and riot police worked for Maidan Nazi leaders. It was leaked in the intercepted phone conversation between EU's Catherine Ashton and Estonian FM.

You have the right to your own opinion but not the right to your own facts.

Maidan Nazi leaders will hang one day for this crime, as well for the mass murder of protesters in Odessa, and mass murder of civilians in the east.

And then, you'll sing another song "I did not know, I was misinformed".
