Moscow slams Kiev’s military op order as ‘criminal’, calls for UNSC meeting
Russia has called on the UNSC and OSCE to urgently consider the crisis in Ukraine, saying that the announcement made by the Kiev authorities on Sunday to mobilize military forces to put down protests in the south-east of the country is a ‘criminal order.’
Events in south-eastern Ukraine have taken a very dangerous turn, the Russian Foreign Ministry said in a statement on Sunday.
“The Kiev authorities, who self-proclaimed themselves as a result of a coup, have embarked on the violent military suppression of the protests,” the ministry said adding that the rallies, which have gripped the Donbas region were prompted by Kiev’s disregard of the legitimate interests the people.
Moscow slammed Sunday’s order, issued by the coup-imposed acting President Aleksandr Turchinov approving a full-scale security operation in the country’s eastern regions, as “criminal”.
“Blood has already been spilled as the result of such actions in the South East.”

CNN, of course, is too busy repeating itself about MH370, to cover anything that might make Obama look foolish.
Hang on to your hat,Vlad...you're about to get another "strongly worded letter"....

Any U.N. Security Council resolution that doesn’t condemn Israel will be a welcome change from tradition.
But the U.S. will have to take sides on the Russia vs. Ukraine issue. Based on Vladimir Putin’s perfect record so far in persuading Obama to do everything he wants him to do no matter how embarrassing, the U.S.’s vote may well go to Russia, or maybe it will be an abstention.
China will support Russia. The U.K. will do whatever Obama tells it to do. And France, fearful of having its gas cut off, will probably support Russia or abstain.
Of the 10 non-permanent Security Council members, including Luxemburg, Chad, and Rwanda, their best strategy would be to not get on the bad side of the Russian bear. With the U.S. so weak, there is no reason for them to fear anything from the Obama administration.
So, Russia is likely to win in the Security Council. In fact, if the Russians had not known beforehand that they would win by polling all 15 Security Council members, it’s unlikely they would have gone to the U.N. in the first place.
