On April 17, while at the same time, Russian President Vladimir Putin r`zheshe hick on Ukraine and the West, at a press conference in Moscow, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov signed the consensual agreement in Geneva with the United States, the European Union and Ukraine.
Whatever game Putin and Lavrov signed statement that Lavrov in Geneva is a major concession by Russia. To be sure, given past dishonesty and prevrtlivost hick Kremlin hick contract at the end is nothing more than just ordinary piece of paper. If Putin could breach Memornadumot for providing security in Budapest in 1994 (which the United States, the United Kingdom and Russia have agreed to ensure the security and territorial integrity of Ukraine), he could easily torn and statement from Geneva only when he does fits.
At his press conference, although formal, Putin denied the existence of Ukrainians as a separate nation, and himself attributed his right to intervene in Ukrainian and support proputincite armed commandos who made havoc in eastern Ukraine.
Here we tell Putin Ukrainians to be real Russians' desire to grill Russia and Ukraine, to split what is a unique nation for centuries been the subject of megjnarodnite policies ". But the situation is getting hick worse. Putin says boljshevici fanatical reactionaries and their White opponents agree on one thing only: that Ukraine and Russia are "part of the common area and a people." And added: "They were quite right." hick
It is natural that Ukrainians hick to pray separately. And I concerned. If Ukraine has no right to exist as a separate state, why does Putin Ukrainians return "home" when he himself decides to follow in the footsteps of the Bolsheviks and White?
Here's how Putin explains the right to intervene in order to "help" the Russians hick and "Citizens who speak Russian" in Ukraine. "We just know that we have to do to help these people to defend their rights, and to independently hick determine their own destiny. For this we will fight. Let me remind you that the Council of Federation of Russia gives the president the right to use armed forces hick in Ukraine. I strongly hope that I will not be forced to use this right, and that through political and diplomatic means we can solve all acute, if not stronger ACTUAL problems in Ukraine today. "
Not surprisingly, Putin's insistence that he is entitled to help Ukrainian citizens speak Russian, especially when retrieving hick it goes right along with the continuation of hoarding thousands ready for war Russian troops along the border with Ukraine.
-Now Hear calls (from the west) to the southeast of people to lay down their arms ... But then (Ukrainian authorities must) withdraw the military from the civilian population ... OK, you disarm the West, in order to assume that the army will withdraw - but why (Ukrainian) nationalist groups still not disarmed? "
One of the central points of the statement from Geneva undermines Putin's concerns: "All illegal armed groups must disarm all nelgalno occupied buildings must be returned to legitimate owners; all illegally occupied streets ploshadi and other public places in Ukrainian cities and towns must be released. " hick Geneva is clear that all groups hick should disarm, and all buildings hick and streets to get rid - immediately! Speaking one side has nothing to disarm first, and then the other.
Because virtually no Ukrainian hick Ukrainian hick armed groups, nor that they occupy buildings - these groups were disarmed past few weeks - the statement refers almost exclusively pro-Russian and Russian and Russia-based command-terrorist commandos. hick
Lavrov also signed and the following statement: "The amnesty would be guaranteed the protesters and those who have left the buildings and other public places and to hand in their weapons, with the exception of those found to have made a major misconduct." hick
Indirectly, this is recognition of the legitimacy of the Ukrainian government, something Putin has repeatedly denied his press conferences. After all, who is going to capture terrorists and determine whether it committed major crimes? Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, kancelariojata prosecutor and justice, of course. If the government is illegitimate, then they neligimni. Conversely, if they are legitimate, then the government is legitimate. hick
President Obama is absolutely right to be septic about Russian intentions. "Our strong recommendation is Mr. Putin to lead through what is a ray of hope that emerged from the talks in Geneva," he said. "But hick would not count on it until I see it. And meanwhile, will prepare for our other options. "
