Russia Accuses Kiev Of Committing Genocide Of Russian, Ukrainian People

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Russia has made its first official comment following the latest escalations in Ukraine - and they are not peaceful-sounding - "We are dealing with the real genocide of both Russian and Ukrainian people,” said Russian State Duma Speaker Sergei Naryshkin, adding that Russia was shocked by the massacre in Odessa and mourns the victims together with their families. His words went further as he warned the perpetrators "will get what they deserve from their people." The words though, have now been followed up by actions... as RIA reports that Russia’s Black Sea Fleet "will get new submarines and next-generation surface ships", Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said Tuesday, voicing his concern at the increasing maritime activity of the US Navy.

Russia's first official response to the escalation in Ukraine and the disaster in Odessa... (via RIA)

The latest episodes of violence in Ukraine constitute a genocide against the Russian and Ukrainian people, Russian State Duma Speaker Sergei Naryshkin said during a Balkan forum Tuesday.

 

“We are dealing with the real genocide of both Russian and Ukrainian people,” said Naryshkin, commenting on the tragic events in Odessa on May 2, when 46 federalization activists were killed in clashes.

 

He added that Russia was shocked by the massacre in Odessa and mourns the victims together with their families.

 

“In the 21st century such things happen not only due to the fault of a bunch of political adventurists – they are not worth much on their own, they will get what they deserve from their people. The main problem is that the horrific truth is being kept from the whole world,” Naryshkin said.

 

According to the speaker, Kiev’s authorities initially based their policy on civil confrontation. They have now demonstrated their unwillingness to find and punish those responsible for the numerous crimes that have been committed in Ukraine in recent months, he added.

 

...

 

The Russian Foreign Ministry called the events a result of the “criminal irresponsibility of the Kiev leadership indulging insolent nationalist radicals, including Right Sector, who are staging a campaign of physical terror against supporters of federalization and real constitutional changes in Ukrainian society."

And then appears to be taking action as The Black Sea Fleet gets reinforcements...

Russia’s Black Sea Fleet headquartered in the Crimea region that recently reunified with Russia will be beefed up with a slew of next-generation warships and submarines, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said Tuesday.

 

“This year, our sea bases will host new air defense and marine regiments,” Shoigu said.

 

“This year, the Black Sea Fleet will get new submarines and next-generation surface ships, and all of this requires our immediate attention,” the minister said during a conference call.

 

The general underscored that Russia has always “lent all the necessary forces” to the Black Sea Fleet, but Crimea’s accession to Russia required it to amend the fleet’s development plan.

 

Russia has recently voiced concern over the increasing maritime activity of the US Navy in the Black Sea after the Pentagon dispatched its frigate USS Taylor to the region together with the command ship USS Mount Whitney.

The clock is ticking and sanctions are doing nothing. The days of diplomacy - it would seem - are long gone - as Lavrov warns...

Those curious what the next event catalyst will be, look no further than May 11, when the Donetsk independence referendum takes place, assured to be a carbon-copy of the Crimean vote.

But, as Russia Today just reported, the US has already said it will not recognize the referendum vote just like it did not "recognize" the Crimean vote, even though Russia couldn't give a rat's ass about that (unless, of course, the east votes against independence, which at this point appears unlikely).

Russia does not want Ua.
Nobody wants corrupt and bankrupt Ua.
The party, who is going to rule Ua is in a horrible situation. Be it USA or Ru.
Ua has to be split into 2 or more independent states. Federalization is not the solution.
To fix the mess there one will need 25 years.

Spetsgruppa A (Alpha Group) forces into Ukraine to counter the estimated 2,000 Takfiri terrorist fighters being deployed from Syria into Kiev by the Obama regime.

"...Federal Security Services (FSB) states that President Putin this morning declared that a “State of Red War” now exists and has ordered an “immediate deployment” of the much feared and highly secretive Spetsgruppa A (Alpha Group) forces into Ukraine to counter the estimated 2,000 Takfiri terrorist fighters being deployed from Syria into Kiev by the Obama regime.

A “State of Red War” declaration means that a conflict within or outside of Russia’s borders endangers a “significant” number of Russian speaking peoples and could possibly soon escalate into a “State of Total War”, the latter which allows for the use of nuclear weapons and a full-scale deployment of military forces......"

Ok, I can't help helping you here.  Its my flaw that when I see an area that could be improved I want to then fix it.

So, stooge, let me just say as a friendly critic that your use of "Ukrainian Nazi Junta" and "Citizenism citizen" are -not- effective.  As soon as the eyeball hits Nazi Junta it then is "Game Over" for your argument.  It screams "BIAS".

And "Citizenism citizen" just sounds garbled.  

Both phrases lack a persuasive element.  If you want to be more effective, ditch them and grab something more sincere and straight forward.  Sincere = Brief as a rule.

Garbled? What else to call proponent of Ukrainian Nazi Junta Citizenism other than what is depicted? Crime gang junta that runs Kyiv demands submission to Nazi ways. That is the path to good citizenism they have chosen for Ukrainian subjects.

This guy wants to be novictim. He submits. He obeys. He is good Ukrainian Nazi Junta Citizenism citizen. This explains his affinity for propaganda, the cheaper the better.

Oh, for sure.  Both Russia and Ukraine are riddled with Kleptocratic oligarchs.

Now the Ukrainian people have said "ENOUGH!".  

They have rolled up their sleaves.  They have confiscated the Royal palaces of Prince Yanukovych and his lackeys.

Having Russians take over will just solidify and stabilize the most corrupt elements and I feel sorry for the people in Crimea...they will never have a fighting chance to live under good government.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/zbigniew-brzezinski-after-putins-... What is to be done? Putin’s aggression in Ukraine needs a response- By Zbigniew BrzezinskiPublished: March 3

 

Zbigniew Brzezinski was national security adviser from 1977 to 1981.

Regarding the Russian aggression against Ukraine, much depends on what Vladi­mir Putin does next. But what Putin does depends on not only his calculation of the likely NATO (and especially the U.S.) response but also his estimate of how fiercely the Ukrainian people would respond to any further escalation by Russia. And, to complete the circle, the Ukrainian response would be influenced by citizens’ reaction to any repetition of Putin’s Crimean aggression and by whether the nation believes that the United States and NATO are truly supportive. 

Putin’s thuggish tactics in seizing Crimea offer some hints regarding his planning. He knew in advance that his thinly camouflaged invasion would meet with popular support from the Russian majority in Crimea. He was not sure how the thin and light Ukrainian military units stationed there would react, so he went in masked like a Mafia gangster. In the event of serious Ukrainian resistance, he could disown the initiative and pull back.

His initial success may tempt him to repeat that performance more directly in the far eastern provinces of Ukraine. If successful, the conclusive third phase could then be directed, through a combination of political unrest and increasingly overt use of Russian forces, to overthrow the government in Kiev. The result would thus be similar to the two phases of Hitler’s seizure of the Sudetenland after Munich in 1938 and the final occupation of Prague and Czechoslovakia in early 1939. 

Much depends on how clearly the West conveys to the dictator in the Kremlin — a partially comical imitation of Mussolini and a more menacing reminder of Hitler — that NATO cannot be passive if war erupts in Europe. If Ukraine is crushed while the West is simply watching, the new freedom and security in bordering Romania, Poland and the three Baltic republics would also be threatened.

This does not mean that the West, or the United States, should threaten war. But Russia’s unilateral and menacing acts mean the West should promptly recognize the current government of Ukraine as legitimate. Uncertainty regarding its legal status could tempt Putin to repeat his Crimean charade. The West also should convey — privately at this stage, so as not to humiliate Russia — that the Ukrainian army can count on immediate and direct Western aid so as to enhance its defensive capabilities. There should be no doubt left in Putin’s mind that an attack on Ukraine would precipitate a prolonged and costly engagement, and Ukrainians should not fear that they would be left in the lurch.

That "card" was quite effective as the withdrawal of the USSR and eventual collapse of the USSR clearly demonstrated.

Now, instead of a nuclear armed police state threatening the West with annihilation and forcing "under-desk" drills on school kids, we have peewee men wearing burkhas and ranting insane nonsense as they kidnap Nigerian school girls.

Thanks, Zbigniew, its a great trade-off!  Well worth the effort.

A Russian accusing Ukrainians of genocide!  What a sick joke. When the Russians come clean on the holodomor (don't hold your breath) I might entertain something coming out of RT. 

When has any Russian government cared about dead Russians, except as to use them for political leverage?  If the dead in the mass unmarked graveyards of the Gulag could speak out the sound would deafen the world.

And there are naive fools who will believe any revisionist history crap that RT puts out for the idiots to swallow.  Congrats as the product of our (non)educational system you qualify.  So then a person of Jewish extraction born in Russia, who speaks Russian isn't really a Russian?  Isn't that exactly the same argument the Nazis made with the "Enabling Acts"? Was or was not Georgia a part of the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union? So than Stalin was a Russian.  Unless you would argue that someone from Atlanta Georgia isn't an American.  Come on show us some more of your genius........

Bugsquasher: When the Russians come clean on the holodomor

 

You were the one blaming the Russians for some kind of a Soviet 'atrocity' perpetrated under a Georgian leader. The country that you are referring to was called the Soviet Union and had people of all kinds of nationalities in the government. It's ok with you to single out the Russians to lay the blame, but when the Jews get mentioned you suddenly get all offended. You're just a brainwashed dumbass who don't know better.

Go read the transcripts (or watch the CSPAN video) of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee's Ukraine hearing from this afternoon.  Felt like some weird episode of the Twilight Zone in person.  Drink a shot every time Nuland says "escalating costs" or when one of the Repubs says "talking tough."  At least the Senate passed a bill denouncing the Boko Haram kidnapping of those Nigerian girls though.  That'll scare 'em.

'How Ukraine saved the free world from Hitler's NAZI's  !!!' ... and why todays' Moscow has never forgotten the winter of 1941-42 and the price paid by Odessa, Crimea, and Kiev?'

The Ukraine will always be sovereign to Mother Russia and never a surrogate to Western Europe.

History 101:  "Operation Barbarossa: Monthly Campaign in the Ukaraine"  {(3 months 6/22- 9-20-1941) & (June- December 1941)}     http://histclo.com/essay/war/ww2/camp/eur/ger/bar/camp/agsukr/bc-umc.htm

Note: Germany had taken ~ 1.4 million pow's with nearly half being Ukrainian's in the largest surrender in wartime history. German troops were just ~ 25 miles of Moscow when the winter of 1941-42 changed history. If not for the brave fighting from the Ukrainian's having no conventional weapons they were able to stall the German's advance on Moscow.

The USA declared war on Japan after Pearl Harbor, but not on the European Axis-- it was Hitler that declared war on the USA that brought America into the entire Global Theatre of WWII shortly after Hawaii's Pearl Harbor. The USA had hoped to stay neutral throughout! Indeed, hoping that the USSR and Germany would both annihilate each other, so Communism, Fascism, and Nazism would self-destruct. 

The USA also helped Stalin with encryption/ cryptography regarding Nazi Germany's every move from the early 1940's til the end of WWII. Stalin never reciprocated! Stalin was worse than Hitler or a close second to China's Mao after 1949? They all [three] killed millions without blinking an eyelash!!!
