No more than we can or the EU can, no one is exactly innocent in the interfering stakes.

It's probably only Americas close interest in what Putin is up to that has stopped him going for a full invasion of the Ukraine.

Vladimir Putin doesn't need to invade the Ukraine, most of eastern ukraine is made up of ethnic Russians who want to re-join Russia anyway. All Putin has to do is 'nothing' and by playing the waiting game eastern Ukraine or indeed the whole of Ukraine will fall, like a ripe plum into his hands.

As I previously said - he doesn't need to 'do' anything and yes I do believe he is doing nothing.

Re: "America is Ready to Act" said Obama.

So where did those large bands of uniformly dressed ( but no identifying badges) well regimented and trained, very well and heavily armed insurgents come from that took over the Ukrainian facilities ? Are they your ethnic Russian dissident population ?

Very probably. Remember both Ukraine and Russia still use conscription, therefore its not surpising that these individuals appear well 'regimented'. As to arms, I don't know, but once again presume, that like America all sorts of 'arms' and suitable ammunition can be purchased from a variety of sources.

If you watch the news and keep up with 'current events', you'll have seen that much of the equipment was 'confiscated' from the Ukrainian military.
