US Official Claims 6,000 Russian Troops In Complete Control Of Crimea – Crisis Map Update

Zero Hedge – by Tyler Durden

While the images and local news have been suggesting that Russia is in control on the Crimean peninsula, US officials (according to Bloomberg) have confirmed this:

  • *RUSSIAN FORCES IN COMPLETE CONTROL OF CRIMEA: U.S. OFFICIAL
  • *RUSSIA HAS 6,000 TROOPS IN CRIMEA, U.S. OFFICIAL SAYS
  • *KERRY TO REAFFIRM SUPPORT FOR UKRANIAN SOVEREIGNITY, PSAKI SAYS  

Obama, Merkel, and Cameron are now on a conference call to discuss this “fact” and officials have just reported that US Secretary of State John Kerry will visit Kiev tomorrow (though we suspect not Sevastopol):

  • U.S. IS FOCUSED ON ECONOMIC, POLITICAL AND DIPLOMATIC OPTIONS ON UKRAINE, NOT ON ANY POSSIBLE U.S. MILITARY INTERVENTION, U.S. OFFICIAL SAYS
  • *U.S. CONSIDERING SANCTIONS ON RUSSIAN BANKS, OFFICIAL SAYS

  1. W-H-Y … is the U.S. sticking it’s nose into the business of other countries? Leave them alone to sort it all out on their own. Don’t we have enough to tend to right here in our own country? Good God!!
    . . .

    1. Don’t worry. Barry’s got it all figured out. He’s got it figured out so well, that his masters have sent him to Connecticut to discuss the topic of minimum wage. WE HAVE NO GOVERNMENT!!! THAT SAYS IT ALL!!!

      Hell, we don’t even need a government anyways. All we need is the power of WE THE PEOPLE. We the people have whipped the elite before and we’ll most certainly do it again!
