  1. Great show again. Crimea is gone to Russia and soon business will be as usual, unless all Eastern and southern Urkraine does the same and decide to move to Russia, that would reduce Ukraine to a inland and poor, very poor country. A unfortunante price to pay for the naive population that believed it would be rich as part of EU. Pity indeed but everyone can see it coming.
    The comments on IMF impact in Ukraine is very real, ordinary people will go down to poverty close to miserable, saw it with my own eyes in Brazil back in the 80's. Bad business this IMF deal.

  2. The Russians and Crimeans didn't think this through. Crimeans didn't think about the fact that they will be cut off from the Ukraine, and the their power, gas, and water comes from the Ukraine.

    Russia didn't think about this because now they have to support Crimea, a large percentage of whom are pensioners.

    The most laughable thing is Russia didn't have to do this. They could achieve the same objective without sending troops and stuffing the ballot box. All that had to do was have Crimea call for a referendum, bring in international monitors, and the same thing would have happened.

  3. Picture the scene. A wooden hut. A phone rings. A guy in a boiler suit and boots comes out of the hut. He walks to a steel valve wheel. He turns it a few times. And the lights go out all over europe ! 

  4. This new anchor is horrid. I miss the old ones. Besides, after what happened to the last ones, you know any new anchors will not dare give us the truth.

  5. Skirts and dresses have to be SO much more comfortable than pants. When I become Global Dictator, I'm going to make kilts mandatory for men at least one day per week. 

  6. Ever notice how if someone is just trolling and makes a ridiculously stupid comment, this comment will get many replies, but if someone sincerely asks a question on viewers opinions of an important current event, Nothing? 

  7. Usually the RT accents are bizarre but there is something really appealing with her voice. I would love to hear some nasty talk with this report. Hot!

  8. Please uh don't have uh Mark Sleboda uhhh back on your uh program uhhh anymore.

  9. As sanctions hit the Russian economy, will the denial be worse than it is in the "we-are-superior" US one?

  10. It has always been about the Resources and not the People, This goes for all parties involved, America, EU, Russia and so on,  We can't vilify Russia for looking after its own needs for doing the exact same thing the Westerners are doing.
