In moments of anguish in seeing the Ukraine bear the brunt of Russian Leader Putin's anger at having to make his point the hard way, is there any question that the American 46th Administration's failure to deal more appropriately in its mishandling of the fuel crisis by back-handing American fuel interests domestically and giving the Russian Gasprom interests control over the Ukraine as a wedge to force Europe into submission to the Soviet ghost of dominance in the region? Questions; questions are swirling as we see the region devolve into the scenario that the Russian's interests are evolving while NATO is still trying to figure out how America is behind causing all of this collapse of peace after the supposed collapse of the former Soviet Union. People, people, if socialism Stalinesque Soviet style has been deomstrated as a failure, then how does Tovarich (comrade) Vlad get away with what is going on now? Anyone?
