BRUSSELS (Sputnik) – President of the European Council Donald Tusk has announced that the European Union has not been discussing any new anti-Russia sanctions over the situation in Ukraine.
Meanwhile German Chancellor Angela Merkel told reporters that fresh EU sanctions could be enforced if the ceasefire agreement reached in Minsk is not fully implemented.
Does this mean that the people who made the agreement do not believe in it themselves? Or does it mean that the sanctions have really nothing to do with Ukraine? Or does it mean that they got a message from across the channel and across the pond to forget about the paper they made? Or does it mean that the EU leadership is essentially indistinguishable from the likes of right sector chief Dmitry Yarosh? Or ... something else?
Although Poroshenko was part of "the Normady 4" that represented Ukraine in brokering the Minsk agreements, I don't see Poroshenko as the "power figure in control." I think, Yarosh trumps him in that regard and is the "loose cannon" in the equation, representing the U.S /CIA/ Obama's directives? Reason, McCain said that the truce would not last even one week? Like clockwork, even before the ceasefire, the IMF – under Washington’s orders – suddenly announced it would continue to help bailout bankrupt Ukraine with a tranche of$17.5 billion, part of a large $40 billion, four-year “rescue” package. So now, Ukraine has a new cash flow - for War.
A back dated November article seems to define Yarosh and the power behind him.
Meet Ukraine’s Master Mass-Murderer: “Right Sector” Leader Dmitriy Yarosh
http://www.globalresearch.ca/meet-ukraines-master-mass-murderer-right-sector-leader-dmitriy-yarosh/5415049
Dmitriy Yarosh is the founder and head of one of Ukraine’s two racist-fascist, or nazi, parties, Right Sector. [He was (until August 7)] officially the #2 Ukrainian national-security official, working directly under Andreiy Paribuiy, who heads Ukraine’s other nazi party (the party that used to call itself Ukraine’s “Social Nationalist Party,” after Hitler’s National Socialist Party, but which the CIA renamed “Svoboda,” meaning “Freedom,” so as to make it more acceptable to Americans).
However,
Yarosh has turned out to be Ukraine’s actual leader, despite his not being officially at the top. His nominal boss, Paribuiy, had been appointed by Arseniy Yatsenyuk, who was chosen on February 4th (18 days prior to the coup) to be Ukraine’s new leader, by Victoria Nuland, who was appointed by Hillary Clinton and John Kerry, who were appointed by Barack Obama (the actual ruler of the new Ukraine).
As Yarosh said this past March in an interview with Newsweek, he has “been training paramilitary troops for almost 25 years.”
Yarosh’s teams carry out the most violent operations for the CIA in Ukraine (including the coup). Since these are the people who actually specialize in this sort of political operation,
Yarosh basically commands the country. Ukraine is now run on fear, and everyone fears Dmitriy Yarosh. Even Ukraine’s other leaders fear him. He is sometimes shockingly public with his threats against even the nation’s President. Yarosh is the only person who can afford to be.
Yarosh hires only proud far-right mercenaries, who are paid by him from U.S. Government agencies (for example, see this), and from U.S. oligarchs such as George Soros (via his International Renaissance Fund) and Pierre Omidyar — people whose enormous wealth is matched by their intense hatred of Russians — and are also paid directly and indirectly by Ukrainian oligarchs, especially by the one who (along with Arsen Avakov) actually masterminded the May 2nd massacre of Russian-oriented Ukrainians: that’s the Obama White House’s friend, the Ukrainian billionaire Ihor Kolomoysky. (Kolomoysky offered $5,000 for every confirmed corpse produced at the May 2nd massacre.)
Obama needed to eliminate the people in the areas of Ukraine who had voted around 90% for the man he overthrew on February 22nd. (That’s the area of the extermination.) Otherwise, Obama’s coup wouldn’t possess staying-power as a ‘democracy’; it wouldn’t survive future nationwide Ukrainian elections if these areas of almost exclusively pro-Russian voters weren’t ruthlessly destroyed. Those Ukrainian voters thus needed to be eliminated. They were doomed by Obama’s coup-plan, and their doom was Obama’s follow-through on his coup.
Dmitriy Yarosh is the indispensable person for such a crucial political task as the elimination of Yanukovych’s voters — and that’s the reason why
Yarosh now essentially rules Ukraine.
He says that the reason they need to be slaughtered is that they are “separatists” and “terrorists.” But Yarosh himself had fought alongside Chechen Moslems in Russia for Chechnia’s independence from Russia. He said that their battle is heroic. Bottom line on Yarosh is that what Jews were to Hitler, ethnic Russians, and all of Russia, are to him, and to the entire movement that he represents, which were Ukraine’s Hitler-supporting organizations during World War II. This anti-Russian form of nazism doesn’t go only back to the German Nazi Party; it’s indigenous to northwestern Ukraine, which is why Ukraine has two native nazi parties, not merely one.
It’s for America’s oligarchy to be the masters of other nations’ oligarchies, rather than for other nations’ oligarchies to be the masters of ours. The shoe’s on the other foot, now, that’s all. Fascism, even nazism, finally won.
Russia Guarantor of Ukraine Settlement, Not Party Fulfilling Deal – Kremlin / Sputnik International
http://sputniknews.com/politics/20150213/1018209668.html
MOSCOW (Sputnik) – Russia is the guarantor of the Ukrainian reconciliation, not a party that needs to fulfill the Minsk agreement, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told RIA Novosti on Friday.
“Russia is the country that was called by the parties of the conflict. This is the country that called on the parties of the conflict to sign a complex of measures to fulfill the Minsk agreements. But Russia is not one of the parties to fulfill these measures. This is the country that is acting as the guarantor, that comes forward with a call, but, obviously, it’s not a party that needs to take any actions for [the fulfillment]. We simply can’t do this physically because Russia is not a participant in the conflict,” Peskov said.
Moscow hopes that all of the points drawn up in the Minsk deal on Ukraine crisis settlement will be fulfilled, Dmitry Peskov said.
