That is a lie. Perhaps Mr. Lavro needs to read the Ukraine constitution. They are trying to defend it.

Well, lookey thar. A Russian masquerading as a Ukrainian asking Ukraine to kill more Russians at the east Ukraine border. Amazing. Do the Russians at the east Ukraine border realize they are being double crossed by Russia?

...In televised (click here) remarks Saturday, Sergey Lavro said the U.S. is encouraging Ukraine to challenge Russia. Lavro's comments came a day after the European Union decided against immediately imposing new sanctions on Russian for destabilizing eastern Ukraine....

It isn't at all Ukraine that is confrontational. It's unfortunate Russia is so scared of their neighbor, but, Ukraine has a right and responsibility to defend their borders. I haven't noticed any aggression against Russia. The aggression is all on the Russian side of the border.

I thought Russia was ready to sign economic agreements with Ukraine. Heck, if they can't get their goods across the border what good is any agreement?
