Russian Fleet Gives Ukrainian Crimea Forces Ultimatum To Surrender Or "Face Storm", Ukraine Defense Minister Quoted

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Just out from Reuters:

  • INTERFAX UKRAINIAN DEFENCE MINISTRY AS SAYING  RUSSIAN FLEET HAS GIVEN UKRAINIAN FORCES IN CRIMEA UNTIL 0300  GMT TOSURRENDER OR FACE STORM

More from Reuters:

Russia's Black Sea Fleet has told Ukrainian forces in Crimea to surrender by 5 a.m. (0300 GMT) on Tuesday or face a military assault, Interfax news agency quoted a source in the Ukrainian Defence Ministry as saying.

 

The ultimatum, Interfax said, was issued by Alexander Vitko, the fleet's commander.

 

The ministry did not immediately confirm the report and there was no immediate comment by the Black Sea Fleet, which has a base in Crimea, where Russian forces are in control.

 

"If they do not surrender before 5 a.m. tomorrow, a real assault will be started against units and divisions of the armed forces across Crimea," the agency quoted the ministry source as saying.

And the response from the Ukraine:

  • Head of Russian Black Sea Fleet demanded Ukrianian ship give up weapons and surrender, Oleksiy Kirchkov, deputy commander of Ukraine Navy vessel Ternopil, tells Ukraine’s Channel 5 by phone.
  • Russia set 5 a.m. deadline for 2 Ukraine ships near Sevastopol to capitulate: Channel 5
  • Ukraine ships “declined to meet the ultimatum, will stay till the very end”

It appears Putin is still unaware of the "costs" he is facing.

Meanwhile:

Interpreter notes that Ukraine’s first president, Leonid Kravchuk, who served between 1991 and 1994, wrote in the Russian publication Snob.ru today that this crisis could spark World War III:

“I call on the Russian authorities to stop. Between our peoples should not be war. Does Russia not understand that this is the beginning of World War III?” he warned.

 

He vowed to defend the land of his forefathers despite his age.

 

“My great-grandfather and grandfather fought in World War I, along with Russia. I am 80 years old, but I’ll take a gun and I will defend their land. Every citizen will defend their territory as their home.

 

“We knelt and Russia sat us down. Czechoslovakia, Poland, Afghanistan, Hungary. Now Ukraine is on the line?” he continued.

If the Russian troops try to take these bases, and the soldiers inside resist, is it possible that Kravchuk’s warning could come true?

Wouldn't be talking on this subject if the EU and U.S. governments had honored the February 21st meeting that called for early elections, of a sitting President who won a fair election with international observers present in 2010...

Their is a procedure in Parliament that could have resolved this before it ever got to this point and we all know it.  If Yanyukovych was so despised call for his an emergency vote confidence and he would have been out of there.

You can ignore it all you want at your own peril from guys like this who helped fund the coup.

Sabre rattling... Is Pax Americana now going to take on a military fight in Ukraine, where it has NO vital interest except to punish Putin (which is much easier by economic means, imposing this by using Nato on Germany, to throttle its gas imports).

From the US point it could have the benefit to put Germany's bubbling economy under the COLD WAR MIC NATO gun.

But will Mutti accept that...? She is between a rock and a hard place.

As EU is not a common political and economic/financial front around it's tattered and battered common currency.

A major arms race in East Europe benefits the US MIC not Germany. 

Well, the US has been gearing up for such a situation in the Far EAST, aka with China/Japan face off. That longer term China/US face off may have to take back seat behind the Putin "put".

Awesome gamble by Putin and lets see if this degenerates into a new tragedy like Syria with the Ukrainians being thrown to the dogs like the Syrians...

We are in tipping times and confrontation chimes; but the ugly head of Kraken has left the China and the Mediterranean to reappear in the Black Sea...

Who would have thought that possible during the Sochi shake, rattle n roll Olympics, just less than a month ago !

The French think the opposite. They bitterly regret today not having participated in the Schroeder revolution which has paid such good dividends to Germany since 1999. Both the Left and right in France realise how vulnerable their own economic  complacency has made France; but thats water under the bridge. Now its time for consequences...

You underestimate the Schroeder "flexitime" and union/Capitalist, big company/small company alliances that have made the German economy tower like a colossus over the rest of europe.

But Germany is under the Nato gun, yes, and NEVER really wanted to create a defense and political alliance in Europe with its southern partners. (remember the incredible stalemate and no action during the Sarajevo crisis when Mitterrand asked Kohl for a joint military action to save Bosnia from Milosevic and he got a NEIN, and the Americans stepped in to stop the rot in Dayton and what followed. EU has no common military policy.

I think one of the lessons of this current recession and maybe forthcoming blood and guts local war bloodletting  will be to put that on the main agenda of EU, if it survives the unknown knowns of future Pax Americana plays thru this current mega crisis now cooking since six long years.

For posterity.

From a friend of a friend who's wife is Western Ukrainian and sides with Russia on this attempted coup and annexation of her Country by the West.

 

It certainly is a Western coup. Whether Zionist controlled or not, we cannot yet say, though prior experience ought to guide us.

However............

The Crimean peninsula has always been Russian.

During the Soviet Union era, sometime around 1963, Nikita Khrutshof reinstated its status as the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, and gave it to the Kiev administration against the acceptance of the Kiev authorities to accept the expansion of Russia's over-polluting heavy steel and aluminium industry in the Ukrainian areas of Dnepropetrovsk - Dniprodzerzhinsk and Zaporizhia. These areas are now purely Ukrainian and Russia has no control over that industry. The Migs were being built there so were the heavy armoured vehicles and cannons. Also the military shipbuilding industry in the Ukrainian ports of Mykolayev - Sevastopol and Marioupol, which also always remained as Russian military naval bases. Thus the Khrutchof agreement stands no more.

Now the westerners howl about legal status, UN charters, sovereignty and other crap, when nobody mentions the parallel, that 40% of the "sovereignty" of Cyprus is under Turkish army military occupation since 1974.

I believe, and so does my wife, (who is Western Ukrainian, partly Polish), that Putin has every right to safeguard Russia's interests, especially since they are of a military nature of supreme importance. The West has again been extremely stupid to think that they could come out winners in a coup as such.

I am extremely worried, that the Ukrainian Nazi party, supported by the West, creates a scuffle that could start an overall war, and obviously, Ukrainia shall be the loser. Russia sympathisers, even in the West of Ukraine, exceed 60% of the population. As to the other 40%, more than half believe that their natural allies are the Russians and not the West. I have explained that in a previous mail I sent you.

Attached are some historical facts about Crimea that would make interesting reading. By-the-way, Tatars are Turks back from the Genghis Chan era.

the term "zionism" of over-used and frequently misapplied.  Often it is not "zionism" which is implicated, simply the ethnic identity of powerful figures such as Russia's and Ukraine's oligarchs

http://rt.com/news/ukraine-oligarch-rule-governors-512/

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ihor_Kolomoyskyi

We can expect these people to have little loyalty to Ukraine and strong ties to western banking institutions.  Hence it is not "Zionism" so much as a major group within the Global Banking Empire who have ideological and religious links to Zionism. 

They aren't exactly hiding it.  They can rely on the inability to discuss it, safeguarded by the hypocritical thought police everywhere who want to convince us that "it doesn't matter" that this same group is wildly over-represented in basically all of the countries involved in a situation, from the Ukraine, Russia, and US, to the UK and its Torah/Tory party and Jewish background PM, to France with its Jewish globalist academics like Levy, Jewish Foreign Minister, slavishly Zionist shabbas goy interior minister and, of course, France's AIPAC, CRIF.

There is something like a coordinated effort to rape and pillage Ukraine.  The question is who will the IMF riot benefit?  Will it matter if its mostly the same oligarchs who financed this coup?  Does it matter if most of the anti-Putin rhetoric and propaganda about the virtues of the coup in Kiev seem to be "zionists"?

 

I dont know, man.  But as always, by nature I'm curious most of all about those stories the news never covers, and the questions you aren't allowed to ask.  Those tend to be about hiding the not so Hidden Hand of coordinated global banking and global zionism, both.

The US can't commit forces to Ukraine that it might need for Syria and/or Iran.  

AIPAC runs foreign policy, and AIPAC don't care about Ukraine. 

AIPAC may not have complete control, but it is a false flag away from complete control and rumours of its loss of power are overstated.

Occasionally, there will be criticism of AIPAC, but it's not covered much, or covered as 'antisemitic' unless it's a fellow Jew doing the criticizing... which means 97+% of the population can't criticize a group that is a minority of a minority and whose position distills to Jewish ethnocentrism, loyalty to Israel, and using American blood and treasure to remake the Middle East for Israeli hegemony.  No matter the cost in that American blood and treasure.  Neoconservatism is nothing but proxy zionism.

All of which means, with Ivan's eyes fixed on Ukraine, it's a great time to ramp it up against Syria and perhaps Iran itself.  Obama should be getting his orders from AIPAC and Netanyahu presently.

All based on the same kind of lie the same kind of people pulled off 13 years ago.

Obviously Russia is facing near bankruptcy again. Why does anybody ever start a war otherwise? This whole notion of "Ukranian Nazis" is complete and utter bogus. Russia's Nazis are just as bad if not worse.

Ukraine hasn't thrown protesting women into gulags, that's Russia's thing. Russia is dying and the only avenue left for Putin is stoking the flames of nationalism. From that perspective Russia's leader is a cross somewhere between Stalin and Hitler. I'm not sure if Putin has developed some sort of mental disease yet but his actions are that of a man in turmoil. Maybe he is actually gay which would explain the latent homophobia. His constant egocentric display of manhood is a sign of desperation. He wants to appear like Lord Farquart in his kingdom far far away.

Russia's GDP is that of Italy with a per capita income of Barbados. The games cost $51 billion Dollars and the Russian rubel is diving, rates are soaring. The country can't afford a war just because they're sitting on NG and oil reserves.

The US on the other hand is run by a group who doesn't know their ass from their elbow. While Putin's idea of leadership is that of a man stuck in 20th century nationalist and fascist ideology, Obama has no idea of any leadership.

We're all fucked.

Like virtually all of MSM, you may find it convenient to allege that Putin started whatever it is.

But the truth is that it was the West: USG, UK, EU, after Ukraine turned its back on cosying up to the EU a while back. All Russia is doing now is seeking to provide protection to ethnic Russians in Crimea - who are a majority. And perhaps to prevent the West from moving in.

According to RT.com, about 6,000 Ukrainian military personnel have now jumped ship over the past 48 hours and pledged loyalty to Crimea over whatever orders are sent out by the self-appointed "government" in Kiev.

Add to this a squadron of military pilots and the rear admiral, I wonder if there'll be many Ukrainians left to hold their ground at 03:00 zulu tomorrow.

No, and I doubt Putin starts firing at the remaining on base Ukrainians loyal to Kiev...  probably give them safe passage out of Crimea or some such, but I'm sure they'll want to relieve them of their weapons first.

Certainly, Ukraine can't rely on its navy, such as it has one. 

Yaysenyuk, there is no doubt, is working hard.  The question is, for whom?

Probably the same people as Bernie Levy, who is a perfect example of zioglobalist cuntery and hyocrisy.  He is France's McCain.

Indeed, with the rouble tumbling down and with the moscow stock echange also falling, he might not be aware how much he and russia just lost for a couple of days of agression. Is it worth it?

I suspect putin's net worth is now close to $50 billions, instead of $70bil a couple of days ago.

 

Also, be aware I will start counting down as "stupid fucks" all those who answer just to say "Putin is the man", "war" or something else arising from a nice warm couch in the US or W Europe.

Moscow Inverses Roles in Kiev by Thierry Meyssan

While NATO leaders are jubilant over the Kiev coup, which they present to public opinion as a revolution, the situation is reversed in the field. Instead of a government of thugs raising the stakes between Washington and Moscow, it is now up to U.S. agents to exercise power and manage the problems they have organized. Moreover the country is ruined and nobody whomsoever will succeed in bringing about a quick recovery. Russia can now defend its interests without incurring the liabilities from twenty years of earlier corruption.

so isn't it interesting to watch Washington try to distance itself from yet another mess it had a hand in creating.

and now the horse face man is accusing Russia of invading the Ukraine under a "false pretext", of course the astounding hypocrisy of that statement needs no further elaboration. I am relieved however for the lack of statements involving "red lines" and "all options are on the table" as I really didn't want to spend time in the hole for refusing to serve in a war provoked by people I despise and a government I have no love for or loyalty to.

but I would have.

unfortunately the lack of that type of rhetoric must be viewed with some suspicion, the declaration from Obama et al. that they are not "seriously considering military intervention" has to be viewed from the standpoint that we are dealing with a white house full of pathological liars and incurable power mad control freaks. 

they have lied, continue to lie about everything else so why should this be any different? have they suddenly come to new wisdom and acquired a new found respect for the lives of the little people, do they suddenly care about the consequences of constant manipulation and meddling?

obama care, QE, fast and furious, Libya, Syria, Pakistan, the NSA spying on the entire planet, the IRS being used as political enforcers, police militarization, the DHS taking over duties that were traditionally the sole province of state and local law enforcement and on and on...

are we now to take them at their word that they will the only actions they will take from this point forward in the Ukraine will be of the above board diplomatic type? Obama, Kerry and company lie so much and on such a grand scale that I doubt they are capable of telling the truth in regards to any situation. they viewed the Ukraine as important enough to organize, fund and provoke a violent overthrow of the democratically elected president so how can any statement they make on the subject going forward be viewed as in any way truthful?

they can't.

including those about not seriously considering military intervention. now my hope is that statement comes from one of two places and neither of them have anything to do with the the white house wanting to preserve human life.

1. simple fear of Russia's nuclear arsenal, push to far and nobody is safe, not the serfs which they consider as cannon fodder anyways, but not the political, bankster and social elite either. nuclear weapons don't discriminate.

2. our own military leadership nixed the idea from the start. apparently this wouldn't be the first time the US military higher ups told the white house no. legend has it Bush jr. wanted to go from Iraq to Iran but was stonewalled by military leadership, so it's not unthinkable or unprecedented that it could be the case now as well. as we have witnessed on many occasions lately civilian command over the military only goes as far as the military allows it to.

as for the Ukrainians in Crimea, they should probably surrender and they most likely will, I'm sure the don't have any more desire to throw there lives away in the service of corrupt fools then any of the rest of us do.

Putin should have used the phrase "shock and awe" just to rub it in

Obama has a new strategy:   the Red Parabola.  A parabola bogs down the trespaser, because he doesn't know when or where he's crossed it.  Only Obama knows!  This is the flexibility he obtained by his re-elction.    Y = x^2 bitches.

Barry's plan is to run and hide behind Moochelle's skirt - Moochelle ass is fucking huge, so their's lots of coverage for that melon head of Barry's.

Germany always tries to take the Ukraine.  Russia always ends up with the Ukraine.  But George Soros, the Central Bankers, and Obama are all morons with no grasp on history.  Soros is especially stupid because he made all his first big money as a Jewish Nazi Sympathizer skimming money from Jewish estates he helped confiscate for the Nazi's in his homeland.  He lived through this crap once already.

During the Cuban missile crisis, Kennedy was surrounded by a collection of brilliant guys because Kennedy put them there (lucky for us).

Today, Barry has surrounded himself with two-digit IQs, back-alley hires, and lying pieces of shit.

Vlad must find this clown outfit to be incredibly hilarious. Team Obama doesn't even qualify as a challenge.

How does it compare?

The cuban missile crisis was preceded by the turkey missile crisis, USSR pushing their missiles in Cuba as an answer to the threat of missiles deployed in Turkey.

The story ended nil-nil: missiles not in Cuba, missiles not in Turkey.

Putin was caught unprepared. He probably failed to conceive that 'americans' would ally openly with Nazis to stir hatred of russians in Ukraine.

Before that, Ukraine was Russia's turf.

After that, Ukraine minus Crimea will no longer be Russian turf.

Chinese Citizenism trolls and their need to take shelter in blameplacing and their own perverted fantasies.

Go ahead, AnAnnoyingMoose, tell us all again how your fairy tale of how you blame Americans for the collapse of Easter Island's society long before the USA was even founded, and before Easter Island even had ANY contact with the outside world --- I really like that one.

Frankly, instead of saying, "face storm", I wish the Russians had used the phrase "shock and awe" instead. Nothing like an ironic sense of humor to expose the prevalence of rampant hypocrisy.

'Americans' are fully aware of their duplicity. It is part of their eternal nature.

So Putin exposes 'americans' for duplicitous people. So what? It is established knowledge for a long time now.

Dead science.

The Chinese Citizenism troll has no point --- ever.

He is merely a paid and semi-autistic Chinese propagandist, or a badly-programed ChiCom webbot, whose only message is "Hate All Americans".

ussa propagada machine, aka 'MSM', hasn't mentioned 'MIA'nuland once, and her conjugal vow

perhaps if... 'FUCK the EU', was not an act of mission(ary) accomplished intercourse but rather a brutal sodimizing as payment from the americana`satan as a mythical dowry...

"... this kind of interference in Ukraine seems that generally has failed to gain the acceptance of public opinion, mainly because its funders have erroneously put Ukrainian neo-nazis and any kind of nationalists in the game, probably because they estimated that without them, the uprising against Yanukovych administration would have failed."

What is the betting that in response to the EU/US telling the Ukrianian Government to "keep calm and not do anything stupid to further provoke the Russians" they decide to do exactly that on the basis that they signed treaties with EU/UK/US for defence in exchange for a large stock pile of Nukes to be decomissioned.

Having two Ukranian Navel vessels trying to force through a Russian blockade is a good place to start.

If that happens, we have a mess on our hands - everyone... Putin Included.

Funny, the ussa propagada machine, aka 'MSM', hasn't mentioned a word of MIA'nuland once! Could it be, she has taken up 'hillaryious' old residence, and hasn't renew'd the 'restart`button', of sworn conjugal vows?

Perhaps if... "Fuck the EU", wasn't meant to be, [or not to be(?)] an act of missionary intercourse accomplished, but rather a brutal, and lambasting, lead-from-behind,`sodomizing for a fait` accompli dowry-blowback... as much, as that of an aborted vestigial, in the 'Anal's of USSA Foreign Policy?    Hmmm...
