Russia Urges Ukraine To Stop "Poking Nose" Into 'Top Gun' Air Drills
As Vladimir Putin proudly comments on pulling back troops ahead of this weekend's elections in Ukraine, it appears he is massing an increasingly number of airplanes.. and Ukraine is not happy, as the Foreign Ministry urged Russia to cancel the Aviadarts 2014 international competition (Russia's "Top Gun"), calling it a military drill. The commander of the Russian air force was direct, blasting Ukraine to stop "poking nose" into Russia's affairs.
Ukraine is meddling in Russia’s affairs by asking Moscow to stop the Aviadarts 2014 international competition, calling it a military exercise, the commander of the Russian air force said Wednesday.
Earlier this week, the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry urged Russia to cancel the event, scheduled for May 21-27 in the Voronezh region bordering Ukraine, saying it would escalate tensions.
“The Ukrainian side does not know what it is doing itself and it is prying in other people’s affairs,” Lt. Gen. Viktor Bondarev told journalists.
Aviadarts is a contest aimed at showing piloting skills, he stressed. Pilots will compete in the precision firing of unguided air-to-surface missiles and shooting ground targets with their aircraft’s guns.
The pilots will also try to overcome air defense systems, including the newest Pantsir-S1 missile air defense systems and the Kornet anti-tank guided missiles. Unmanned aircraft will control the aerospace.
The official opening ceremony for the Aviadarts 2014 competition is due on Wednesday at the base of the Air Force Academy in Voronezh. The international stage of the competition will take place in mid-July.
So boots on the ground may be pulled back but Russia's top fighter pilots are amassing right on the border... just in case.

...Top Gun Tournament, Russia/China Partnership announcement...Looks to me a Black Swan Event is shaping up very soon....The USSA cannot allow the debasement of the Dollar as World Currency Reserve Fiat.
Too late!
A black swan is a black swan only when you see it, according to the theory.
I'd turn off the Nuke plants just in case.

Our deal leader Obammy can't figure out the obvious. To him, how the toilet flushes is a black swan event.
Besides.. Everybody like an air show!
Indeed. State of the art fighters evading surface to air missiles? Fun to watch! Fuck the ukrainians for trying to ruin a nice enjoyable afternoon. Killjoys.
If you want to see a great air show, prick Victoria Nuland's head with a pin
Voronezh is to Ukraine as Homestead AFB is to Cuba?
Oh Yeah!!! Just try saying that to the face of Asst Sec of State Victoria (F.U.) Nuland (nee:Nudleman) Kagan!!!!

The Kyiv Yatzi Junta, as a protest measure, has withdrawn both operational airplanes of the Ukrainian Air Force from the competition.
Ukrainian Rada (parliament) just passed something calling for withdrawing troops from the east and a new federalized (Swiss model)constitution.
Brennan better pack his bags.
This looks like a job for Biden and Son!

Funny! I thought it was Russia that can't seem to stop "poking its nose" into the affairs of Ukraine, rather than the other way around.
I guess you thought wrong.
Small tribute to my favorite Russian gunfighter

Funny - I thoiught that all of Russia's military equipment was rusting away and all its military personnel were depressed conscripts. Maybe I've been reading the wrong sources. I suppose that could be the case. CNN. Fox News. MSNBC - am I missing something?
Wow, Ukraine's new leaders have too high an opinion of themselves.
Not too bright either, sticking their noses in the Bear's tent.
A big nose from Ukraine sticking it into Russia's business.Kind of like a stinking right wing fascist nazi punk gang telling a world superpower what to do.Obama's henchmen in their new roles with neocon Victoria Nuland as cookie monster.Very sick indeed.
