Jager,
Have you read all the posts in this thread? We, and in that I mean Bill Clinton, are primarily responsible for this situation. If Ukraine still had a nuclear deterrent, I seriously doubt that this whole mess would have happened. Now, we have exposed not only Ukraine, but the rest of Europe (due to dependency on Russian energy) to Russian Hegemony. History is repeating itself. Pulling out of European security agreements was always a prominent subject of Soviet propaganda. It's no different now. Why do you think Russia is the major contributor to European anti-fracking groups?
