A

Луценко: Полномасштабная война Украины с Россией может начаться в апреле–мае

A
full-scale war with Russia may begin in April or May. Petro
Poroshenko Block deputy Yuriy Lutsenko made this announcement on
March 16 on the “Free Speech” TV station. He also emphasized the
need to increase the fighting power of the UAF since, according to
Lutsenko, there exists a real threat of a full-scale war.
“There
are far more threats to Ukraine than just that grey zone of the ATO,”
Lutsenko said. “We are in danger of a full-scale military conflict
which may be started by Russia at the end of April or May.
Intelligence information and analysis indicate a large concentration
of armored and mechanized forces, their support formations, and
greater activity by the Russian intelligence and reconnaissance. This
may be an indication that Putin, having failed at Plan A of
separating the Russian-speaking part of the population and at Plan B
of organizing a rebellion in Kiev, may launch Plan C of full-scale
war,” Lutsenko concluded his paranoia-laden remarks.
J.Hawk’s
Comment: The flip side of the coin is that Kiev, having
failed at Plan A of retaining the loyalty of the Russian-speaking
population and Plan B of ensuring economic growth (that rebellion in
Kiev—who’s to say it won’t happen this or next year???), will
resort to Plan C of provoking a larger war in order to justify
internal repression and solicit/extort more aid from the West. In
fact, of the two parties, Kiev’s incentives to launch a war are far
greater.
Yushchenko
advises Ukrainians to stock up on salt and matches
Ющенко посоветовал украинцам запастись солью и спичками
Translated

Viktor
Yushchenko advised Ukrainians to stock up on matches and salt since
the IMF credit will not save the country’s economy.
He
made that recommendation on the Shuster Live show on March 13.
Ukraine’s
third president said that the IMF loan of $17.5 billion is
unbelievably small.
“The
best sanction against Russia is help to Ukraine. Investments in the
range of $200, $300, $400 billion. A Marshall Plan. How do we
mobilize investors to come to Ukraine? They are not in business to do
favors. We should offer our resources: bridges across the Dnepr, the
Black Sea continental shelf, the Dnepr Riviera”, Yushchenko shared
his thoughts.
“I’m
not talking about European countries. These figures are slightly
larger than Ukraine annual balance of payments deficit. But all we
got is a four-year credit. We’re like the Jew who haggles over
eggs. We won’t even have enough money to make change,” Yushchenko
concluded.
J.Hawk’s
Comment: He is right, right, and wrong. Yes, the figure of
$17.5 billion is laughably small. Yes, Ukraine has plenty of
resources to offer. But what makes Yuschchenko think Western
investment funds won’t get the Dnepr bridges, the continental
shelf, the Dnepr Riviera, and much else besides, for fraction of the
cost Yushchenko mentions? Ukraine is desperate, and desperate
borrowers are the best borrowers of all, according to Western
lenders. After all, if the investment doesn’t pan out, they can
always sell all of that to…Russian billionaires…
Oh,
one last thing. That little bit about Jews haggling over eggs? Use it
on every Western politician you come across. They’ll LOVE IT. Trust
me.
