| Pro-Russia protesters declare republic; Ukraine fears invasion |
| 2014-04-08 |
| Pro-Moscow demonstrators in eastern Ukraine seized arms in one city and declared a separatist republic in another, which Kiev called part of a Russian-orchestrated plan to justify an invasion of the country. Kiev said the overnight seizure of public buildings in three cities in eastern Ukraine were a replay of events in Crimea. Prime Minister Arseny Yatseniuk said, "An anti-Ukrainian plan is being put into operation ... under which foreign troops will cross the border and seize the territory of the country. We will not allow this." Pro-Moscow protesters seized official buildings in Kharkiv, Luhansk and Donetsk on Sunday night, demanding that referendums be held on whether to join Russia like the one that preceded Russia's Crimea takeover. |

| #2 AFAIK despite MSM-Net inferences there's still nothing official from the "People's Republic of Lugansk/Luhansk" + "Moldova", but I guess its safe to say their declarations are forthcoming. * IIRC VOICE OF RUSSIA - PACE REFUSES TO SEE THAT UKRAINE IS ON VERGE/AT RISK OF TOTAL NATIONAL SPLIT - LAWMAKER [Alexei Pushkov]. Vlad thus far is doing all the right things in Russia's strategic interests, both agz NATO-EU as well as agz the Soon-to-be-Nuclear Hard Boyz + Islamic Nations - despite international criticisms, Vlad is giving the US + NATO-EU an opportunity to cooperate + "share" an independent sovereign Ukraine. As various MSM-Net Artics have denoted, VLAD = RUSSIA'S FEAR IS THE SOON-TO-BE-NUCLEAR HARD BOYZ + ISLAMIC NATIONS - AMONG OTHER REASONS, HE WANTS DE FACTO RUSSIAN CONTROL OF THE BLACK SEA AS HEDGE AGZ NUCLEAR UNCERTAINTY VEE NUCLEAR ISLAM INCLUD INUCLEAR ISLAMIST/ISLAMIC RADICALISM. THE REAL CRUX IS WHAT WILL OBAMA-THE-PRO-US-NATIONALIST-VS-OBAMA-THE-ANTI-US-GLOBALIST, + SECSTATE JAAWHN, ETAL. DO IN RESPONSE TO THE LATEST TROUBLES OR ESCALATIONS IN UKRAINE'S SOUTHEAST. |

| #1 Can't wait for the Russians to start on Estonia. Just think...a NATO member and an European Union member. Not sure I have enough popcorn. Just feel sorry for the Estonians. They are nice people and are so proud have having given the Russians the boot. Re the Ukraine: glad by paternal grandparents left. |
