While Washington works assiduously to undermine the Minsk agreement that German 
chancellor Merkel and French president Hollande achieved in order to halt the 
military conflict in Ukraine, Washington has sent Victoria Nuland to Armenia to 
organize a "color revolution" or coup there, has sent Richard Miles as 
ambassador to Kyrgyzstan to do the same there, and has sent Pamela Spratlen as 
ambassador to Uzbekistan to purchase that government's allegiance away from 
Russia.  The result would be to break up the Collective Security Treaty 
Organization and present Russia and China with destabilization where they can 
least afford it (details  <http://russia-insider.com/en/2015/03/18/4656> here). 
  

Thus, Russia faces the renewal of conflict in Ukraine simultaneously with three 
more Ukraine-type situations along its Asian border. 

And this is only the beginning of the pressure that Washington is mounting on 
Russia.

  

On March 18 the Secretary General of NATO denounced the peace settlement 
between Russia and Georgia that ended  
<http://english.pravda.ru/hotspots/conflicts/10-08-2008/106050-georgia-0/> 
Georgia's military assault on South Ossetia. The NATO Secretary General said 
that NATO rejects the settlement because it "hampers ongoing efforts by the 
international community to strengthen security and stability in the 
region."Look closely at this statement. It defines the "international 
community" as Washington's NATO puppet states, and it defines strengthening 
security and stability as removing buffers between Russia and Georgia so that 
Washington can position military bases in Georgia directly on Russia's border.

In Poland and the Baltic states Washington and NATO lies about a pending

Russian invasion are being used to justify provocative war games on Russia's 
borders and to build up US forces in NATO military bases on Russia's borders.

         

We have crazed  
<http://english.pravda.ru/opinion/columnists/16-03-2015/130038-general_kill_russians-0/>
 US generals on national television calling for "killing Russians."

The EU leadership has agreed to launch a propaganda war against Russia, 
broadcasting Washington's lies inside Russia in an effort to undermine the 
Russian people's support of their government. 

All of this is being done in order to coerce Russia into handing over Crimea 
and its Black Sea naval base to Washington and accepting vassalage under 
Washington's suzerainty. 

If Saddam Hussein, Gaddafi, Assad, and the Taliban would not fold to 
Washington's threats, why do the fools in Washington think Putin, who holds in 
his hands the largest nuclear arsenal in the world, will fold?  

European governments, apparently, are incapable of any thought.  Washington has 
set London and the capitals of every European country, as well as every 
American city, for destruction by  
<http://english.pravda.ru/russia/politics/13-11-2014/129021-russia_usa_nuclear_weapons-0/>
 Russian nuclear weapons.  The stupid Europeans rush to destroy themselves in 
service to their Washington master.

Human intelligence has gone missing if after 14 years of  
<http://english.pravda.ru/russia/politics/01-04-2013/124195-russia_usa_yugoslavia-0/>
 US military aggression against eight countries the world does not understand 
that Washington is lost in arrogance and hubris and imagines itself the ruler 
of the universe who will tolerate no dissent from its will.  

We know that the American, British, and European media are whores well paid to 
lie for their master.  We know that the NATO commander and secretary general, 
if not the member countries, are lusting for war.  We know that the American 
Dr. Strangeloves in the Pentagon and armaments industry cannot wait to test 
their ABMs and new weapons systems in which they always place excessive 
confidence.  We know that the prime minister of Britain is a total cipher. But 
are the chancellor of Germany and the president of France ready for the 
destruction of their countries and of Europe?  If the EU is of such value, why 
is the very existence of its populations put at risk in order to bow down and 
accept leadership from an insane Washington whose megalomania will destroy life 
on earth?
