US investors in eastern Ukrainian oil and gas, like Biden’s son and Soros, were livid. That brought out Nuland to start the Maidan protests. Nuland, et al, fomented the coup in Feb 2014. The new Kiev crew chosen by Nuland sent troops to the region in an attempt to take control of the enormous resources there, and then accused Russia of sending in troops, which wasn’t true.MRWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13878920695841363553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-15803615042545509442017-02-20T08:41:52.972-05:002017-02-20T08:41:52.972-05:00I would view Trump's talk of Bolton as a signa...I would view Trump's talk of Bolton as a signal to Russia...<br /><br />Trump has gone way out of his way for Russia now the move for Russia is to reciprocate for Trump... <br /><br />Yet we have Russia buzzing US Navy ships and doing missile tests, etc..<br /><br />dont forget that this whole "Russia!" thing was started by Russia when they reneged on the gas deal thru Ukraine when gas price went to $13...<br /><br />ie Russia does not evidence that they know how to deal... <br /><br />So the whole relationship with Trump if it is going to work has to be based on successful dealings... not sure if this is realistic to expect with Russia it has historically not been the case with Putin's Russia...<br /><br />Matt Frankohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11082502216984169113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-41212335998011485162017-02-20T00:51:34.475-05:002017-02-20T00:51:34.475-05:00"John McCain, btw, is a traitor."
