It is easier to talk with new Ukraine’s leadership, Dmitry Medvedev has declared. The Russian president has come to Kiev for a two-day official visit.
You'd fit in with Viktor Yuschenko's party. US sponsored Orange revolution disrupted bilateral relations between Russia and Ukraine until they were non existant. All that foreign aid is now national debt, not a gift. The IMF controls government expendatures and Ukraine's economy is still on the edge of collapse due to US intervention and domestic policies from that revolution. Russia being King to Ukraine? That is idiotic statement. Russia and Ukraine are the same people. My family is part Ukrainian. It is obvious your views from the otherside of the world will never meet the reality we live here. These East, West politics are ruining the lives of people. Ukraine fell victim to it because they were too weak to defend against it. If they did, they would have the reputation of Belarus, the last dictator of Europe... Russia also had a lot of IMF loans and found out the reality and worked very hard to pay them off. Russia was euphoric at the end of the Soviet Union hoping for friendship with the West. There were American stores and US was popular here. I am sure the only references to a dictate from Russia will be the Black Sea Fleet and Gas lines. Anyone who can read can see through Western's politics on the subject. A more stable Ukraine is more beneficial to others. So don't spread propaganda that our own brothers are tyrants over ourselves.










GREAT! I am so HAPPY for Russians and Ukrainians! Please, Kiev, PLEASE give back "all that foreign aid" that was taken for these last 4-5 years! Let Moscow rebuild your state and be your KING!
