He's probably one of the better candidates for Ukrainian presidency.

A very informative, large and comprehensive analytical interview with Foreign Minister Lavrov: http://rt.com/news/lavrov-interview-ukraine-russia-065/It's a must read, if one wants to know the Russian position from the source, and not as it is re-told by the Western outlets.

Nearly 100,000 Russian forces have massed on Ukraine’s border, a top Ukrainian defense official told an American audience Thursday, giving a number far higher than US military estimates. “Almost 100,000 soldiers are stationed on the borders of Ukraine and in the direction … of Kharkiv, Donetsk, “ Andriy Parubiy, chairman of Ukraine’s national security council, said via a webcast from Kiev. “Russian troops are not in Crimea only, they are along all Ukrainian borders. They’re in the south, they’re in the east and in the north,” Parubiy said. After its intervention in the Crimean peninsula, Russia is plotting to foment separatist sentiment elsewhere and Kiev fears a possible incursion in the country’s east, he told the Atlantic Council, a Washington think tank. Parubiy said Ukraine was braced for invasion any day now. http://www.france24.com/en/20140327-ukraine-claims-100000-russian-troops-near-border/Pray for peace, prepare for Hell.

As I said in my earlier response to that quote, it's nothing but fearmongering. Russia has its forces station along most of its border in approximately the same density. Interestingly, US also has its forces stationed along Russian borders: ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

During the "cold war" USA provided less than 50% of total NATO budget. Now more than 70% of NATO spendings are handled by USA.
NATO already passed a peak of power a long time ago, now it's nothing more than paper tiger with dropped jaw. A corrupt organization with many controversies behind a veil, and already proven inability to work on the direct purpose.

With the Eu nations yet to fully recover from the recession, that is not surprising. And the only country which has gained from the NATO (i.e other than the US itself) is Turkey.

The Turkish population is rapidly growing. In the near future, Turkey will become no.2 in the NATO, replacing the UK, Germany and France.

Russia threatened several Eastern European and Central Asian states with retaliation if they voted in favor of a United Nations General Assembly resolution this week declaring invalid Crimea’s referendum on seceding from Ukraine, U.N. diplomats said. The disclosures about Russian threats came after Moscow accused Western countries of using “shameless pressure, up to the point of political blackmail and economic threats,” in an attempt to coerce the United Nations’ 193 member states to join it in supporting the non-binding resolution on the Ukraine crisis. According to interviews with U.N. diplomats, most of whom preferred to speak on condition of anonymity for fear of angering Moscow, the targets of Russian threats included Moldova, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan as well as a number of African countries. A spokesman for Russia’s Mission to the U.N. denied that Moscow threatened any country with retaliation if it supported the resolution, saying: “We never threaten anyone. We just explain the situation.” http://news.yahoo.com/exclusive-russia-threatened-countries-ahead-un-vote-ukraine-221945820.html--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SeldwfOwuL8

BS. It is the US which always bullies the less powerful nations, not Russia. I'd be inclined to agree, RT's saying more or less the exact opposite of that report. Impossible to trust any source now though, the first casualty in war is the truth :/ RT simply relayed the interview with the Russian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Lavrov. It all boils down to who's word one prepares to take, and the time will tell. It always does. It's quite revealing watching some of the interviews with retired CIA officers, shedding some light about, for example, the defamatory information war that US was waging, while USSR had its troops in Afghanistan. Any significant state would try to sway less powerful states, and Russia is no exception. The action itself can be called many things. Persuasion, diplomacy, threat, trade agreements, military bases, bribery. Take your pick. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) The one who is more successful at it and uses it the most will get the most votes. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) PS: Hmmm: http://rt.com/news/ukraine-nationalists-attack-cars-137/

Regarding this, "Obama says 'bigger nations cannot simply bully smaller ones'. Wait... what?" don't forget that the whole reason he won the election in the first place is because the majority of people here believed that bigger nations shouldn't bully smaller ones, and Obama heavily campaigned on and supported that idea. G W Bush was the guy who invaded Afghanistan and Iraq. Obama was picked to get US the hell out of there, so I'm not sure you can hang that mess around his head (unless you believe US should have remained in Iraq to provide "security."
