Russia - What We Are Up Against

Our "diplomats" really seem to have no idea what they are doing in going up against Russia, and in the days ahead we shall reap what they have sown.

If you would like to know what the Russians are really like and understand why they will do what they will do, you should read this assessment of their national character:

By the way, Russia just announced that it will cut off Europe's gas supply through Ukraine:

Perhaps the next step, as Orlov suggests, is for Russia to put a freeze on debt repayments to western banks until the sanctions are lifted.

You reap what you sow, EU ... or rather what the US has sown for you.
