Ukraine Closes 8 Border Crossings On Reports Of Russian Troop Movement
On the eve of Obama and Putin coming face-to-face on the beaches in Normandy, tensions appear to be re-escalating in the south and east of Ukraine. As Ukrainian forces continue their "anti-terrorist" operations, newly 'elected' President Poroshsenko is steppung up the protection of his sovereignty:
- *UKRAINE CLOSES 8 BORDER CROSSINGS WITH RUSSIA
- *POROSHENKO: 'TERRORISTS' BEING SENT INTO UKRAINE TO SOW CHAOS
There is a great deal of chatter about Russian troop movements into Ukraine with " major accusations today that small units of well-armed militants, some of whom are traveling in armored vehicles, are crossing the Russian border and engaging in firefights with Ukrainian border guards." As if that was not enough, there are now reports that the Chief of Poroshenko's presidential campaign administration has died after an assassination attack in Nemirov city.
Ukraine's government has stated on its website that...
- Seven checkpoints in Luhansk closed, 1 in Donetsk region “to ensure civil security,”
Following talk of Russian troop movements... Via InterpreterMag,
There are major accusations today that small units of well-armed militants, some of whom are traveling in armored vehicles, are crossing the Russian border and engaging in firefights with Ukrainian border guards.
...
Now, Tymchuk reports that 1 APC, 4 Kamaz trucks mounted with heavy machineguns, 3 minibuses and 4 cars filled with militants have all crossed the border near the Marinovka checkpoint, north of Lugansk.
Meanwhile, this video claims to show several Russian BTR armored vehicles racing toward the Ukrainian border to the south, near Rostov on Don and racing toward Amvroseyevka. While the video has not been verified, the topography matches (as does the weather report), but the date is not confirmed. The problem is that, months ago, when large amounts of Russian troops were on the move, there were many eyewitness reports and videos. Two vehicles, or smaller convoys, moving on major highways, might pass witnesses by before they have the chance to video the vehicles. In other words, these claims are very hard to prove, or disprove.
The reports of Russian troops and vehicles crossing the border have not been independently verified, but the frequency of those claims over the last few days has been alarming, and coincides with a sudden surge in separatist military assaults, and victories.
The Ukrainian government appears to be losing control of the border, which means that the flood of Russian fighters across the border may be unstoppable at this moment without a significant change in fortune for the Ukrainian military.
And then news of Poroshenko's election campaign manager being killed...
Head of the election headquarters of presidential candidate of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko in one area of the Vinnitsa region was found murdered in Nemiroff.
"Fifth June, about half of the first body of a man with a gunshot wound to the head found in the cabin of his own car on a street Nemirova. Given the evidence, the Investigation Department officers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Vinnytsia region opened criminal proceedings on the grounds of an offense under article" Intentional murder "of the Criminal Code of Ukraine", - the " Interfax referring to the site of MIA of Ukraine.
Perfect timing for US equities to hit all new record highs... as Russia and Ukraine look set to actually come to blows...

Damn!
But I...
I was so looking forward to...
Damn!
Going to be a cold Winter for Western Europe.
I feel sorry for the trees.
Putin is no Obama, Putin actually is a Russian

Unless 60 years from now people in Russia decide they don't like what he did, in retrospect.
If that happens, then Putin will have been Georgian, Ukrainian, or from one of the former republics (or, God forbid, they'll decide he was Jewish).
A man's real character is not measured by the critiques he avoids, but by those he accepts.
useless talkings

NATO (a.k.a. Narrowly Averted That One) is a paper tiger that specializes in hot air and bluster. Ain't gonna do nuthin' directly in Ukraine. Maybe back-door Russia with weapons supplied to Nazzis, but not much more than that.
But maybe Pootie's got a little SOOOOOPRIIIIZE planned for B'Crack -a-Mo in Normandy - like, maybe, stealth military invasion of Ukraine that tips everything Russia's way real fast.
We can see the surprise you're looking for from your little Pooty.
Yeah,
Because military invasions are really great, right?
Well, at least if you've been lobotomized.
So, Downposters?
Which postion are you disagreeing with?
Are you saying that military invasions ARE GREAT?
Or are you disputing that a lobotomy makes them seem better?
I am curious to see what you will reveal to me about yourselves.
why engange you? you are paid by the keystroke apparently. better no response and you can troll elsewhere to make your spare change for the day
what about your little 'G'enital 'C'rabs johnny, maybe you should fish for those before talking about and looking at other people's Pootys. Did you have them since '71? Must be tough dealing with the itch all these years. Guess that is where your passive aggressiveness comes from.
No sir!
I am not passive aggressive.
I am just aggressive!
And you failed to note that reference to Putin as "Pootie" was not my invention but part of the post I replied to.
But you're not doing well with honesty today, are you?
Shall we believe you are consistently inattentive? Or is the repeated deception just part of your charm?
maybe Petro the zionist should hightail it out too before he ends up with his buddy
Gold for a loonie soon. Hardline Harper can make it happen!
Interesting that Prexy Poroshenko's chief of election HQ got assassinated in Vinnitsa. That is in the center of Ukraine, SW of Kiev. So who killed him? Probably not those Russians slipping across the border. Who was angry enough that Poroshenko won the election?
Far out! In Ukraine it could be any one of the people who voted for his candidate. The election was 2 weeks ago. As they say in politics, 'a week is a long time.'
The reports of Russian troops and vehicles crossing the border.

hitler churchill and the world war 2 news.
Russian lack of involvement is as likely as US lack of involvement.
And I know why the Putin worshippers are here so thickly today.
It is man-night Thursday, and they have the hots for him.
These are mostly the same people who just LOVED Obama in 2008. Because he's black, right? And his race means he JUST HAS TO change the way things are going in the US, right?
You can't fix stupid.
(But you can mock it.)
10-4. As good a set of explanations I have read here today.
Obama lovers convert to Putin lovers, hmm, how inconstant!
I appreciate your support Chen.
But I appreciate your good manners even more.
I am not so polite. Nor so refined. And I absolutely cannot stand by why people are abused for "Political Correctness" or for being insufficiently supportive of a Political figure.
Men are not gods. No man deserves the worship heaped upon unworthy Politicians.
And when some attack others, not because they have insulted, but because they failed to adequately worship a politician when demanded, I become unwilling to hold my tongue.
I hope you remain unfailingly polite. It is a talent that I do not share.
DoChen is the politest mother fucker on Zero Hedge! You could call him a FUCKING ASSHOLE FAGGOT to his face and he would thank you for your opinion and then go back to his effortlessly serene and eminently satisfying life that you only WISH you could have without skipping a beat!
I am ChumbaWambaRollingDoobies.
Wow, very kind, chumba!
Peace to all.
/LOL (?)
Yeah, things just roll off his back.
You are an idiot or a paid troll. I despise Obama-he's a faggot puppet - I despise him (and always have) just as I despise Bush, McCain, Lyndsey "the fag" Graham, and all other neocon fools and lackies for the Banksters. Putin is a real leader. he serves Russia and makes decisions based on Russia's interests. Obama makes his decisions based on the interests of the Oligarch NWO Banksters pulling his strings. However, the true Shadow Government has it's own factions -they fight amongst themselves -like all gangsters. It's a game to them. While they all serves their own intersts and not ours, it matters not whether it is an Adelstein Republican or a George Soros Democrat. They are sloppy and not nearly as efficient as a Putin -who serves Russia and Russians.
brought to you by, Gazprom. trolling the net since 2001.
Real Leader who serves Russia and makes his decisions based on Russia's interests?
How did a mid-level bureaucrat who has owned no businesses become a billionaire?
HOW?
He beat the Oligarchs?
And of course, all his childhood friends also became billionaires by simple chance, right?
Just good luck?
Lots of talent assigned by the Soviet to the same parts of town? To the same schools?
Who just happened to become acquainted before the fall of the Soviet Union?
Based on Russia's interests, huh?
Not involved with Oligarchs, huh?
Right.
Anything more you can offer in support of your argument? Any reasons why I should assume that Putin didn't simply use his position in the KGB to take defacto ownership over Russian Government assets to make himself rich and powerful, and then help his childhood friends along?
Any reason you can give me why your view is right, rather than mine?
Anything?
I probably won't believe it. But I will examine it.
Anything?
I could answer line by line again but you are not worth my time anymore Johnny. 'I probably won't believe. But I will examine it'.....lol you gotta be kidding me, why should I waste my time going through a list of answers for you then, if you come with that attitude. You are a one trick pony Johnny who just comes with a list of gibberish each time.
Hey, this is Fight Club! You either answer to every one of his blows or you unleash a MAD shitstorm of fury on his ass! No walking away from a fight!
Come on, let's see it!
-Chumbz.
GCJohns
All you do is ask questions with veiled assertions of guilt implied.
Then, you ask for proof from everyone else. C'mon you have to weigh what's happening here. Ukraine and her people, (none quite as blessed as you) are being sacrificed to the god of fire, death and destruction, just to apply pressure to Russia and steal her energy markets in the EU.
It's all about US hedgmony. How can't you cheer for Russia??
I already went a round with Johnny a few posts ago, he slaps like a little b***h. Fight club is not about slaps and calling people Hitler like Hillary. But that is why he is weak minded and not a fight club candidate.
Search every post I ever made and show me where I compared anyone to Hitler.
That's another lie I've caught you in.
But you think we should all sign up for your choice of politician?
Right.
To be fair, that was me who referred to Hitler, but only in the context of him (Hitler) saying that God was on his side. *
* unless there has been something new...
I have learned through my 58 years of living, that the name-callers usually demean themselves (in the long-run) more than they do their targets.
Bush said the same thing. In fact, every pol says that, so what was your point? Other than to get the hitler comparison in. Interesting what drives you dcrb? Do you come up with your own talking points and opinions?
Because Russia is a people not a government.
It is not Russia you are cheering.
I asked for no proof.
I asked for at least a theory.
I have heard silence.
US hegemony is a huge problem in the world.
But you seem to think it is the only problem.
It is not.
Do you care that there is a huge debate about Putin in Russia right now?
Do you care that people are sanctioned, attacked, or jailed when they are too critical of him?
There is no way to produce justice by supporting one injustice over another.
There is no difference when you offer one Oligarch in place of another. You see it all the time with Republicans and Democrats.
When will you understand that it is actions that prove character more than words? That opposition to a thing does not prove superiority to that thing?
This is why people lurch from one dictator to the next, one tyranny to the next. Because they search everywhere for a deliverer - everywhere but the mirror.
By the way...
The assertions are not veiled.
How is it not a legitimate question to ask, in exchange for my support, "How did a mid-level KGB bureaucrat became a billionaire, and all his friends became billionaires IN SEVEN YEARS?"
IN SEVEN YEARS. BETWEEN 1991 and the 1998 Russian default, this guy became a BILLIONAIRE.
HOW?
If you are offering Russian hegemony as superior to US hegemony that would appear to be a pertinent question.
Otherwise the new boss is same as the old boss.
OK this is my opinion on Putin and the questions you ask.
I don't care how Putin and the Oligarchs got their money! That, is up to the Russian people to decide and deal with. I'm an Australian. I'm responsible for my elected leaders not Russia's!
Why I am pro Putin and pro Russia is simply because of what is happening is all because of the US funding and causing a coup to a democratically elected President! (Prick or not I don't care. He was elected)
I'm sick of the carnage that the US is causing in foreign country's to mostly innocent people trying to live their lives in their own country. It has become a virus on this earth and all you say is, "It is a poblem but not the only problem" Well, for me, it is the one of the BIGGEST problems facing mankind atm.
Look at Libya. The west brought nothing but destruction, death, and ongoing civil war there. Do you care??? Fuck no! You're making a sweet profit selling your Asian bearings at decent mark up prices to Peruvians.
Iraq. There are more car bombs there now than car accidents! 70% (almost) of the country that the US fought for is now in the hands of the Taliban/Al Queda. Absolute destruction
Ukraine, Syria, North Africa, Thailand, Venezuala etc etc etc. Most of these conflicts can be shown to have their genesis with the US war machine. Look for renewed issues in Japan, Vietnam, and the Pacific in the oncoming months years as the US see's another opportunity for war. (I'm not implying that China is totally innocent here either)
And, you say it's not the only problem!! Well, maybe in Peru it isn't but, if you lived in any of these countries US hedgmony IS their main problem. Lucky Peru isn't rich in oil or there is a war coming to you man!!!!
When Putin has intel, secret service, mercanaries and invests 5 Billion in destabilising Mexico or Texas maybe then I'll put shit on him but at the moment I see him as a Saviour to common decency and the hope of humanity against tyranny.
Nicely done Aussie. Don't expect any rebutal. That's not how these propagandistas work. They prefer to throw garbage and run.
Great post!
That has been my position all along as well. The US is a rogue state, a dying empire.
There are many here who have difficulty in letting go of cold-war era mentality and seeing who was the evil empire all along.
It takes some humility, I guess. Which is one human trait confused with weakness in the US-fuck-yeah psyche.

QED
VV Putin was never about money
OK, I can accept that. But he does have a lot.
Interesting how quickly some jump to homophobic remarks when anyone dares support obstacles to US imperialism...
Hey, Putin, just do something to shut Obama up!...
Kick him in the balls already!!
Good grief!!!
He should ride his motherfucking SHARK BEAR right through the French doors of the South Lawn entrance and have it eat Obama's head right off his fucking body!
Then he could plant a Russian flag in Obama's sphincter hole and proclaim the US the newest state of the Russian Federation.
I am Chumbawamba.
All in due time... But does that mean we will have to drink tea rather than coffee?
This is reminiscent of the "foreign fighter" nonsense in Iraq and the equally demented belief that bombing Cambodia & Laos would somehow stop the Vietnamese from shooting at them.
The empire is apparently unable to acknowledge that people may not want to live under an imposed government that views them as subhuman.
Where was Zarquay from?
Oh, but Jordan is part of Iraq, right?
Do you mean Zarqawi the American psyop program? http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/04/09/AR200604...
It is difficult to determine how much has been spent on the Zarqawi campaign, which began two years ago and is believed to be ongoing. U.S. propaganda efforts in Iraq in 2004 cost $24 million, but that included extensive building of offices and residences for troops involved, as well as radio broadcasts and distribution of thousands of leaflets with Zarqawi's face on them, said the officer speaking on background.
The Zarqawi campaign is discussed in several of the internal military documents. "Villainize Zarqawi/leverage xenophobia response," one U.S. military briefing from 2004 stated. It listed three methods: "Media operations," "Special Ops (626)" (a reference to Task Force 626, an elite U.S. military unit assigned primarily to hunt in Iraq for senior officials in Hussein's government) and "PSYOP," the U.S. military term for propaganda work.
One internal briefing, produced by the U.S. military headquarters in Iraq, said that Kimmitt had concluded that, "The Zarqawi PSYOP program is the most successful information campaign to date."
Kimmitt is now the senior planner on the staff of the Central Command that directs operations in Iraq and the rest of the Middle East.
In 2003 and 2004, he coordinated public affairs, information operations and psychological operations in Iraq -- though he said in an interview the internal briefing must be mistaken because he did not actually run the psychological operations and could not speak for them.
Kimmitt said, "There was clearly an information campaign to raise the public awareness of who Zarqawi was, primarily for the Iraqi audience but also with the international audience."
A goal of the campaign was to drive a wedge into the insurgency by emphasizing Zarqawi's terrorist acts and foreign origin, said officers familiar with the program.
No.
I don't deny they had a psyop program. Wouldn't you?
You seem to imply that means who Zarqawi was and what he was doing was an invention.
Not so.
There was a coordinated military media campaign after WWII to publicize the concentration camps.
That doesn't mean they were not real. It means that the military saw benefit in REVEALING them.
Zarqawi and AQI were invented by the occupation. Domestically it provided an excuse for the ongoing violence (couldn't say guerrilla war!) and was 'proof' for the lie that Iraq had something to do with 9/11. For the Arabs, it was supposed to serve as propaganda to stop resisting the occupation so they could be 'protected' from an AQI that didn't exist before the invasion. Their bombs came from an unusual place.
http://www.boston.com/news/world/articles/2005/10/02/us_car_theft_rings_...
The FBI's counterterrorism unit has launched a broad investigation of US-based theft rings after discovering that some of the vehicles used in deadly car bombings in Iraq, including attacks that killed US troops and Iraqi civilians, were probably stolen in the United States, according to senior government officials. &
Investigators said they are comparing several other cases where vehicles evidently stolen in the United States wound up in Syria or other Middle East countries and ultimately into the hands of Iraqi insurgent groups -- including Al Qaeda in Iraq, led by Jordanian-born Abu Musab Al Zarqawi. &
Tracing the path of these vehicles from the streets of America to the local ''chop shop" -- where criminal wholesalers process stolen vehicles -- and then on to the black market half a world away could help thwart a terrorist network that has wrought some of the worst violence against US troops and thousands of Iraqi civilians.
Strange how they never unravelled that terrorist network. Or ever mentioned this story again!
Now the heavy 23 mm anti aircraft machine guns will come through by the dozens and by the hundreds. They will not be shooting just hand carried stuff.Expect that the Separatist will resemble the separatist of Syria with similar weapons and tactics. Kiev will respond with massive force alienating Russian ethnic population. Slaviansk was like the Alamo. It needed to hold long enough until the separatist movement was better organized . Even if the buildings of Slaviansk are reduced to rubble it will be a symbol of defiance and proof the globalist despise ethnic Russians.
Kerry Obama Biden and his son Kolomoisky Time Warner Central European Media Enterprises are locked in to wrong fight at wrong place with wrong people.Their arrogance keeps them from reversing direction just like Afghanistan. CIA NSA has big board room with as kissers where no one discusses negative consequences and worst case scenarios.They do not understand what is really going on.
You are right, but not complete.
There are a lot "big plans" going around. And none of it is good for mainstreet.
Americans are fat, stupid and lazy. American men have no erection. However they love to masturbate with their both hands. How they do it?

@gcjonns1971 13 weeks here....one of the most stupid commenters I've read anywhere.
@dochen cuz you asked a simple question...
Why I support Putin is explained in the following vid:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cUqaGjgA8BU
I didn't think America would elect a black named Barak Hussein Obama as President in 2008 especially with all of the anti muslim fervor...but they did.
I wouldn't believe that the only hope for a return to a constitutional American government is coming from the Russian President, but it is...
Support my country..ALWAYS
My governemnt..only when it deserves it.
In their face in real.
That is leadership.
good post
National Guard Right sector entered Railroad Hospital Krasni Liman and shot dead 37 wounded Donbass Army soldiers, civilians and at least 1 hospital worker.
