Putin admits to Russian Military presence in Eastern Ukraine

[Enayze]

does this make your fellow ukrop scum, i mean terrorists, i mean holy army of freedom and democracy getting crushed by rebels less embarrassing or something?

You mean the rebels who are actually the Russian regular army with Russian weaponry, and tanks? How is that Russian ruble doing right now against the dollar since its failed invasion of Ukraine?

whoop de ****ing doo! porky's still ass kissing for money and nobody still gives a **** about Ukraine.

Obviously Russia does, as well as the rest of the Western world, otherwise it long would've went the way of Belarus.

Well Ukrainian people will finally get to travel Europe without getting a visa unlike you and the rest of the vatniki will get to visit such nice places as Sochi or Novosibirsk or u can travel to Siberia also heard Dagestan is a very nice place to visit, you can't even go to turkey anymore

He won't be traveling to any of those places, he lives in a much better and civilized country that is the US. Probably will adopt US citizenship if he hasn't already, and will enjoy travel to Europe or anywhere else he pleases, because countries don't consider US a corrupt ****hole.

Ukraine halts $3bn Russia debt repayment

Ukraine will not repay a $3bn debt owed to Russia by this weekend, claiming Russia has refused to accept repayment terms already offered to other international creditors.

The moratorium means that Ukraine is likely to default on the debt, which is due on Sunday.

In addition, repayment of $507m of Ukrainian commercial debt held by Russian banks will also be halted.

The countries have been at loggerheads since Russia annexed Crimea last year.

Ukraine's Prime Minister, Arseny Yatseniuk, said Ukraine had imposed a moratorium on the payment of a $3bn eurobond held entirely by Russia, which is due to mature on 20 December.




He did not say how long the moratorium would last. Moscow had previously said it would take Ukraine to court if it did not pay on time.

The moratorium will be in place "until the acceptance of our restructuring proposals or the adoption of the relevant court decision", Mr Yatseniuk told his government.

"We are prepared for court action from the Russian side."

Relations between the two countries have been tense since Russia annexed the Crimean peninsula in 2014.

Ukraine and the West have also accused Russia of arming and aiding separatist rebels in eastern Ukraine, allegations that Russia has denied.

In November, Russian energy supplier Gazprom halted gas supplies to Ukraine.

On Wednesday, Russia said it would suspend a trade pact with Ukraine that would exclude the country from a free trade zone that includes former Soviet countries from 1 January.

Ukraine said it is "ready to pay the price" to join an EU free trade zone from that date.

The black sea today means d1ck unless you're looking to invade Turkey. And setting up a nuclear base is pointless when Russia already has ones or could put them in places like Sochi and Kaliningrad. Geostrategy 101 you have no idea what you're talking about.

lol worldwide or just hickville, USA, where you're from? Russia is continuing to enjoy very favorable opinion from the US and European publics since their intervention in Syria.

Russia continues to enjoy sanctions and extended sanctions along with a collapsing ruble and a shot down plane over Turkey. It also enjoys corruption and abhorrence from its closest neighbors.

good lord... stick to bible thumping, enayze.

"you have no idea what you're talking about" seems to be your favorite line when you want to appear an expert on things, but you aren't.

France and Italy have been second guessing these childish sanctions for months. the EU have their own problems to deal with, seems it's only a matter of time till that house of cards fall.

poll was published in august. Russia started bombing ISIS/moderate terrorists september 30. kick rocks, klitschko cumsock.
