Sure enough. Yanukovich has backed down. Again.
Ukraine’s president, opposition agree to a truce. Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovich and opposition leaders agreed to a truce following a meeting which focused on how to end the crisis in Ukraine peacefully, the president’s press office confirmed.
“Following the meeting, the parties announced: 1. Truce 2. The start of negotiations to end the bloodshed, to stabilize the situation in the country, for the sake of civil peace,” the press office stated.
The president met with the leader of the nationalist Svoboda opposition party, Oleg Tyagnibok, Batkivshchyna opposition leader Arseniy Yatsenyuk, and UDAR party leader Vitaly Klitschko.
Earlier, Batkivshchyna opposition party leader Arseniy Yatsenyuk announced the same thing, according to the party’s press office. He stressed that the government was planning to declare state of emergency and a night assault on Independence Square, which has now been canceled.
“The planned assault and clearing off protesters is canceled. A truce has been declared and talks will start to stabilize the situation,” Yatsenyuk said.
Frankly, I am at loss for words to express my disgust with this man. I just hope that some form of Karma will find him soon.

US introduces visa sanctions against 20 Ukrainian officials – State Department

In response the Ukrainian guv could close the American embassy in Ukraine, and their own in the USA, and sever diplomatic relations with the USA. A second would be to name the American officials responsible for the violence in the Ukraine (from Obama on down to operatives in Ukraine) and seek war criminal prosecutions against them. International prosecution of the criminals outside Ukraine, and direct arrest and prosecution of those Americans inside Ukraine found to be involved.

It was obvious from the very beginning of the tragi-comic Ukie circus that it was a new and major step in the encirclement of Russia. Should we remind, for the nth time, of Sir Halford Mackinder, of the Geopolitics, of the Great Game?
The West is candid enough: “Opinion: The West’s problem is not Ukraine — it’s Russia. By former U.S. ambassador to the OECD, Al Larson, Special to CNN, December 21, 2013”. He became even more specific: “For example, the so-called Magnitsky Act mandates the U.S. government to seek compensation of American investors who had their assets illegally seized with the break up of Yukos Oil. European investors in Yukos suffered the same fate. TTIP could incorporate principles of collective action and mutual support in such cases”. The West wants to punish Russia for “loss of revenue” for the Jewish oligarchs.
USrael cannot achieve “full spectrum dominance” as long as Russia is not subdued.
