Sweden, Finland, and Ukraine joining NATO?

Ignoring the evidence that was linked to doesn't make it go away. Sorry

So if I ignore the evidence you failed to present, that makes it go away?


This of course begs the question...what is the complete lack of evidence doubled? Is zero times two anything other than zero?

 

[Davka]

If you'd bothered to follow the thread you'd see that the evidence was linked to already.Though apprently you believe that if you close your eyes put your fingers in your ears and sing ..lalalala...the evidence ceases to be.

Ignoring the evidence that was linked to doesn't make it go away. Sorry

That is the worst apology I have ever seen.

To be fair, it's marginally better than "I'm sorry you're an arsehole. Go fuck yourself."

Yatsenuk complains about Russia Invading Germany and Ukraine during WW2

https://translate.google.com/transl...azenjuk-sowjetischer-einmarsch-a-1011915.html

Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk reminded in the "daily news" to the aggression of the Soviets over 60 years ago.
Jazenjuk spricht über westliche Werte und die Lehren der Geschichte Zur Großansicht

Yatsenyuk speaks about Western values ​​and the lessons of history
"We can" so "all remember very well the Soviet invasion of the Ukraine and Germany." Yatsenyuk to moderator Pinar Atalay,

And in fact, in 1942, Soviet troops were still advancing relentlessly westward. She shrank back then not be afraid to follow the armies of the democratically elected Chancellor A. Hitler through Ukrainian territory. The slightly longer route south of the Black Sea - bypassing Ukraine - them was obviously too cumbersome.

Finally, the Soviets invaded and violated the German eastern borders on German territory before, as we do with Mr. Yatsenyuk remind us all very good. Whether this also applies to women Atalay, we do not know. Anyway, threw the little excursion into the history of Russian aggression with her on any questions.

I'm certain she'll be able to get a rise out of the economy. What Ukraine needs is hard currency, the sort of investment that causes widespread erections of new buildings, and an aching desire on the part of investors to blow their entire wad inside Ukraine. She appears to have the sort of experience with attractive assets that causes an insistent swelling in the market.

Yes, but for some reason restricted to members only:

Cornell University

University of Cumbria, MBA
MBA, Leadership and Sustainability
2011 – 2012

Estonian Business School
BSc, Enterpreneurship and business management

I didn't know Ukrainian government actually has three ministers who are not Ukrainian. That's one way to try to combat corruption I guess.

Are you implying her career is based on her look?

 

[arkirk]

Agreed. Russian actions have pushed Ukraine to the west. Prior to taking Crimera, Ukraine was 50/50. Now they want NATO. The 'Bear' has scared the other eastern countries such as Poland, Finland, and the Baltic countries. They are now forming their own reactionary forces and are beefing up their defenses.

The real kicker here was the coups promoted by NATO and the U.S. I don't agree the Russians were the prime movers in this conflict.

They may not have been the prime movers in the coup. But they were most certainly the prime movers in the military escalation, providing materiel and troops to the separatist protesters and illegally annexing Crimea. Without US & NATO support, Yanukovych would likely have been voted out of office for reneging on his promise to join the EU. Without Russian involvement, Yanukovych would not have felt pressured to reneg in the first place; Crimea would still be part of Ukraine, and the region would not be a violent, unstable mess.
