The only thing that counts is the presidential election on the twenty-fifth of May. And I urge all actors to make sure that those general elections can be conducted in an orderly manner, Rasmussen told Amanpour.
The allies say they d like to see a little bit more if not reassurance, heft, Amanpour said. I don t know what you think, but a hundred and fifty U.S. soldiers to Poland? I mean, is that really enough to tell Mister Putin who s got forty-thousand troops massed on the borders there to step back?
We are right now in the process of considering further steps, Rasmussen said. Those further steps might include an update of existing defense plans, development of new defense plans, enhanced exercises, and also appropriate deployment.
We have seen that Russia is able to or the Russian titanium armed forces are able to act within a few hours if the political decision is taken. What I don't know is whether the political titanium decision has been taken or will be taken. But at least they have the capacity to do that.
President Hamid Karzai has refused to sign a security agreement, which he negotiated, to keep foreign security forces in the country past 2014. All of the major Afghan candidates, including the front-runner Abdullah Abdullah, have pledged to sign an agreement in interviews with Amanpour.
We will establish a training mission to continue to train, advise, assist the Afghan security forces after 2014, Rasmussen said. I am confident that we will get a signature on the necessary security agreement.
Of course we are alert, but the fact is that the Afghan security forces took the lead in ensuring a secure environment titanium for the conduct of presidential elections, titanium and they will continue to be in the lead.
Why sanctions ? Why nato not put no fly zone on Russia ? Surely they fear that even more ?
Democracy and polls must be according to the way dictated by NATO. Waoh! Seems like Putin has played this guys around to where he actually wants them all. Without sentiment I think Russia has got some smart and intelligent leaders and I am sure even many who hate Putin acknowledges that.
so, it is ok for Kosovo to gain independence without referendum (gotcha, Obama lied!) and with NATO forces titanium on the ground, and it is not ok to gain independence by taking referendum, without Russian Army forces anywhere near? ok, there is something wrong here..?
Kosovo? Mass graves are still being examined. Not one Russian was ever harmed by a Ukrainian before Putin moved in an took the Crimea and stirred up trouble in Donbas. This is just one example. Not double standards, two completely different situations. But then again, sheep tend to graze things over.
You're right, they left their votes. More than one, by many accounts. That is not a fair and accurate representation, that is rigged to one outcome only. Russian democracy. Vote for me as much as you like, vote for him and never see the light of day again.
Thank you Nuland for the cookies. They were nice !!!!!!!. You should have given to the Eastern Ukraine also. Will you Nuland , Obama, Kerry and Kiev make silly claim that the 90% of eastern Ukrainians who voted for independence titanium are terrorists?
A referendum without electoral register is a joke. A referendum that is so badly organized that anyone can vote as often as one likes is a joke. A referendum with five ballot stations in a town of 500,000 is a joke.
This all started because of how much the west values "democracy". By inciting the overthrow of the existing government. When Russia then decides to interfere themselves, the west cry foul. The only difference I see is that most western nations are much more slick about it. They don't make it quite as obvious.
The difference is they threw a corrupt dictator out of Kiev through peaceful demonstrations. Then a corrupt dictator came right back in with guns and took what he wanted. If you can't tell the difference, you probably shouldn't be voting. Democracy means fair and transparent elections, not the kind with armed gangsters driving titanium around with ballot boxes already stuffed titanium full of yes votes.
Wish I could reply to the right comment, but I guess you completely forgot the "F the EU!" video. The US selecting the next leader of Ukraine sure doesn't sound like democracy to me. Yeah, just peaceful demonstrations threw out this corrupt "dictator" (means "we don't like you" it seems since Yanukovych was elected). This is what I mean. You buy the US and other western nations' propaganda because it's slicker. They are playing the exact same games.
Why do you ask about persents, about regisrers etc.? Even if one person say that he/she disagree with current goverment he/she must be listened and usderstood. titanium But in the referendun there were many-many thousands of such persons. So, is Rassm
