Stocks Jump On Reported Minsk Summit Cease-Fire Deal
Well that didn't take long. Just an hour or so after Merkel, Hollande, Poroshenko, and Putin got together to drink tea in Minsk, they have a 'deal':
- *RUSSIA, UKRAINE, GERMANY, FRANCE LEADERS READY DECLARATION: IFX
- *FOUR-COUNTRY DECLARATION TO REAFFIRM MINSK CEASE-FIRE DEAL: IFX
- *JOINT DECLARATION IN SUPPORT OF UKRAINE'S TERRITORIAL SOVEREIGNTY
So - to summarize - they agree to a cease-fire (which saw 1000s killed and shelling continue last time) and to support Ukraine's territorial sovereignty (except of course Eastern Ukraine?) Face-saving headline-maker comes to mind.

Stocks don't care though - they are buying it.
As Interfax notes,
Joint 4-nation declaration to affirm commitment to cease-fire agreements reached in Minsk in Sept., Interfax reports, citing unidentified person close to talks in Belarus capital.

Enter stage left.....United States false flag of some sort to destroy any chance for a negotiated "peace". GUARANTEED!!
Ordo ab chao
See that and we all thought this Ukraine thing was going to get out of hand. Phew. Back to watching cat videos on youtube.
Why can't they do something useful, like about my neighbor's fucking trash cans he leaves out all week?
Until USSSA begins sending tactical armaments to Kiev...then all bets are off.
They already did, last December. I read the article yesterday.
I wonder what happens with the encircled Ukie troops now.
This is what happens to them:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TZ9Q18HKlQ#t=611
Why do you think they don't want to fight any more after seeing their brothers killed like this. War is brutal.
Wait, is this a pentagram thingy.....
an agreement by Russia doesnt make sense unless the december shipments were tactical nukes and already in place - it takes a lot of energy to get the Separatists against overwhelmig odds to beat the government of ukraine - they cant get to the edge of annilating em and back off and then do that again after regrouping over and over
so whats the prize here?
What is the prize is a good question. Does handling this to be a continual war somehow benefit Putin or those he answers to?
After the last cease fire, which Putin forced upon EUke, trapped WUke troops were allowed free passage to safety. A great advantage was lost by the EUKe forces. Then the cease fire was broken and the EUke forces lost many lives to once again trap WUke troops and to get (at least in some locations) the upper hand. And now Putin appears to force another cease fire upon EUke and will give the trapped WUke troops passage to safety.
When Putin forced the last cease fire the EUke leader of their forces called it a betrayal by Putin. My guess this is another betrayal but it may take a little time to be sure. Is Putin just using EUke troops, their deaths and the destruction of EUke towns as political pawns?
No devastating consequences? No costs? WTF??
Very interested to see if the borders of any "agreement" are drawn around the old Minsk agreements or over the new territory Novorossia gained since then.
No costs?...
Evidently you don't live in my neighborhood with the same HOA's nannies "walking" the streets.
On an oddly different note, how is it the replacement costs for the community pool's eventual replacement continues to increase in each year's accounting, yet "inflation" is well under control, with "deflation" actually being the official declaration, yet my annual "contribution" to the fund must increase by ~20%? Who / What am I supposed to believe?
Eh, scrap and make some dollares?
I'm looking for the Twitter feed for #OfficialSpeakingOnConditionOfAnnonymonity
What the fuck. Where is the feed for the leaks?!
Get ready people. The last time Russia and Ukraine met and had a cease fire it lasted all of four hours. This is like the two WWF wrestlers that shake hands before one pops a roid vein for the trivialist of reasons and giges the other one the chair..
Why did the Katy (big tits) Perry halftime show blast the words prepare? Because the illuminati blueprint was layed out in it. And they spelled out an east west division in the opening scene (harlot rides the beast) followed by many disappearing chess pieces in monotone silver / grey which was a timing by next winter followed by a beach scene (summer 2016) followed by fireworks (limited nuclear exchange) followed by world wide UN police state aka police uniform robotic dancers (Chinese music ) and so forth
ummm wow
Good job cnmcdee. I did not watch halftime but looked at photos for the now usual occult/illuminati scenes and symbols. I saw some of it in Perry's photo's. Then I looked at photo's of the performance at the grammy awards and it was so blantant it was shocking (again).

Mission Accomplished. Market levitated back to proper ATFH level.
Fading back now...
A cease-fire is not a "solution". However, it seems they are preparing permanent defensive positions in Kiev. Possibly in anticipation of splitting the country up?
They need time to finish their "protective wall" (see previous ZH story).
Notice how all of this was done without Obama? Maybe the EU is wising up. If Obama can be marginalized enought we might just avoid WWIII.
Hope springs eternal.
They all work for the same boss...

+1. Also, let's not ignore the fact that this is a major PR coup for Putin, getting something like a deal (details?) quickly without the meddlesome Americans around to screw it up. We live here, we get along, who needs the Americans?
See?
It's not Vlad's first day.
He probably knows what lands in Kiev...
Another reason to sell gold!
So Merkel, Puitn, Hollande and Potopotty agree to a deal. Does that mean those fighting have as well? Last I checked, none of them were leading from the front. Curious that, no?
What will Obie do? Give a speech in tersely Progressive fantasy laden terms, try to collect his next Peace Prize and fly to SoCal for a round at Riviera followed by a $25,000 per plate dinner, a night at Barbra Striesand's home and morning round at LACC.
It's nice being King

Obama: "I'm still sending the weapons anyway."
Where's Oblamo in the picture?
yup - saw him off to the right side getting the coats for the other "leaders"
left side of picture behind the flags. I can be dyslexic at times -
He had an appointment with Rahm Emmanual for some round robin hot gay sex in their Chimpcago bath houses. When he returns to the District of Criminals Michael Obama will then have his way with him....
He was squatting under the podium.
Its strange these peace talks only ever happen when there are thousands of Ukrainian Troops caught in another cauldron by the separatists.
A+
But... but... but... "Putin is the bully!"....
There is a party missing, namely, the seperatists. Kind of odd.
You noticed that too...I suppose there is no need for them to be there if their simple position is don't attack us or we will attack back. Or Putin has a blank power of attorney.
If the seperatists do not do as Putin says he stops shipments and the EUke's run out of ammo and then die. They are his pawns.
The other missing party is the US. It was recently announced officially that the US will openly begin training the WUke's, this will include tactical advisors. The question is, after the trapped WUke troops get to safety, the WUke regroups with new more powerful arms and the attack resumes - will Germany, Poland, France, UK stay out of it or will they supply material support or then support santions on Russia.
Of course it is possible the cease fire will be used to move in NATO peacekeepers into WUke. Resulting in some sort of false flag to justify NATO attacking EUke and directly supporting WUke troops.
Ukrainian Government: “No Russian Troops Are Fighting Against Us”. Sanctions against Russia based on Falsehoods
Ukraine’s top general is contradicting allegations by the Obama Administration and by his own Ukrainian Government, by saying that no Russian troops are fighting against the Ukrainian Government’s forces in the formerly Ukrainian, but now separatist, area, where the Ukrainian civil war is being waged.
Here is a screen-print of a google-chrome auto-translation of that statement:
Ukraine Chief of Staff is explicitly and clearly denying the very basis for the EU’s sanctions against Russia, and for the U.S.’s sanctions against Russia: all of the sanctions against Russia are based on the falsehood that Ukraine is fighting against “the regular units of the Russian army”
http://www.globalresearch.ca/ukrainian-government-no-russian-troops-are-...
No Russian troops, but the sanctions are also for russian backing of the "separatists". There is no doubt that Russians are backing Novorussia through a voentorg, which I don't think they are even trying to hide. There is no way Russia will let the Kiev junta roll over Eastern Ukraine and allow NATO on its border... no way. In addition, the only valuable part of Ukraine in terms of natural resources is the East. Good luck to the western part, prepare to become IMF slaves and pawns for the forseeable future.
Anyway, troops no... military equipment and logistics... yes.
Cease fire is good cover for the Yids in Kiev to re-arm (Obongo-KerryCohen weapons) and round up unwilling fodder to be shoved into the next wave eastbound.
This "deal" lasts a few weeks at best.
Until then, enjoy these new ISIS episodes.
A few weeks, with that lying P.O.S. Chocolate King? I give it till Friday, that's if the defenders in East Ukraine go along on this.
No ceasefire. And what authority does Putin actually have to impose one on the NDF? I don't think they'll accept it.
Is this more playing for time while the BRICSMINT set up their alternative trade system?
Shit wont last.
CIA concludes ISIS (Islamic State) is embedded n Moscow. O'bama reserves the right to strike Isamic State anywhere in the world...
MSM won't tell it happened, so it didn't happen. No ceasefire.
Awaiting pictures of Ukranian troops and speratists laying down their arms and embracing each other. If you want face-saving headlines just give Europe another 24 hours
Better buy all the Bitcoins you can scrounge now, before they're gone.

Now what will president Obama do? ... Play 36 holes instead of 18
Haven't there been several "ceasefire" agreements in this conflict, none of which took? But hey, a press release is all that's needed to boost stocks. All these pension and hedge funds must be going back and forth between bonds and stocks constantly. It's not like this news is getting individual investors to jump in.
There are ins and outs
Wow, only 60 minutes? It'll probably last as long as one of Poroshenko's candy bars in a blast furnace...
Obama is sucking on his thumb inside a gay closet, bloody muppet!!!
In other news, it's been reported that Obama "Shit Himself" at the prospect of fighting the Russians in Eastern eukraine...

More Oil jobs bleeding
FMC Technologies - 2,000
Oil equipment maker FMC Technologies has started to cut approximately 2,000 employees in a bid to trim costs as the oil field services industry faces a tough year after the collapse of crude prices, the company’s CEO told investors Wednesday.
I thought Russia, Germany and France weren't fighting in Ukraine?
Ukraine stays whole, Rebels get a free 'Welcome to Novarussia County population 8 million' sign to stick on a post outside Donetskt.

This cease fire agreement would be worth a lot more if it was written on TP. At least it would have a use then.
Another interesting read IMO... About Smedley Butler and his take on war back in the 1930's after he had retired as a Major General with 30+ years of active duty service....
http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article40954.htm
This is good news indeed. The USSA is happy to build a 'Ukraine Wall' (which in the end won't last for the love of russian blood flows thick) and Putin gets his cake, and eats it t[w]oo.
Et`tu, Angel`a'!
The Doneck rep. and the Lugansk rep. stated already, that they will never return back to Nazis.
They have not been a party in Minsk.
This will not and cannot hold long.
"The Doneck rep. and the Lugansk rep. stated already, that they will never return back to Nazis.

This agreement, without the U.S., DNR and LNR signing it as well, is not worth the paper it is printed on. Hollande and especially Merkel (and even more especially Poroshenko) are only pitiful DC puppets. I am curious what is going to happen if NAF do not accept this agreement and continue fighting?
The reason that the 'rebel' or russian-backed leaders of Donetsk and Lugansk
are not at Minsk is that their boss is there and they will do as they are told.
Full steam ahead, no cease fire and more land grab by putin.
Yeah, like he is scarce on land.
Dutchie,
What he grabs NATO doesnt.
"Yeah, like he is scarce on land."
This is not a matter of land grab but preventing genocide/ethnocide of the Russian speaking majority population (83%) of Ukraine. Once it is settled in Ukraine, Russia should press Latvia and Estonia to give full rights to their currently discriminated Russian speaking population, 30% in Latvia and 25% in Estonia
No.
The Baltic coast, like Little Russia, is Russian territory. It always has been. The Baltic "states" and "Ukraine" never made sense as independent countries except to Russophobes and Germans in need of fifth columns within Russia among speakers of obscure regional dialects---"Latvian," "Lithuanian," "Estonian," "Ukrainian"---which were well on their way to being supplanted by Russian by 1917.
If Little Russia isn't big enough for Great Russians and Nazi "Ukrainian" shitstains, what makes you think the Baltic coast is?
Do as was done with "East Prussia:"
1. Annex;
2. Deport the Nazi backstabbers to Germany and/or Siberia, and make them take their jabbers with them;
3. Re-settle with Great Russians.
No one cares what Obama does, besides, this peace isn't going to last, the DNR and LNR would be fools to let it all go again, not when they have the Poroshenko government on the ropes, that's the only reason Poroshenko gave in, he has no other hand to play, he needs peace or he's finished and he knows it; and so do the DNR and LNR. Not going to last and the Poroshenko government is finished. PS. In Greece they'll make a 6 month bandaid, and then it will fail too. SERFS UP AMERICA!
Read the script he is given, playing the part of the fool sticking his proverbial foot in the mouth again in front of the Sennet next just like he did on CNN during this interview. They gave him the wrong award he should have won an Oscar or Emmy, not the Nobel Peace Prize.

...“And since Mr. Putin made this decision around Crimea and Ukraine, not because of some grand strategy, but essentially because he was caught off-balance by the protests in the Maidan and Yanukovich then fleeing after we had brokered a deal to transition power in the Ukraine"...
That is dated to February 1st.
<= Cease Fire will not hold
<= Cease Fire marks end of violent conflict
As for me... ARE YOU NUTS? Of course it won't hold!
Porky needs to return to the Yanukovich Ukraine borders or the gov't is toast.
Putin needs a land bridge to Crimea in friendly hands or Crimea is logistically unsupportable.
Put the two together and there is no hope for an end to violence.
But enjoy it while it lasts!
And don't forget Greece is fixed and the Russians won't be getting a base in Cyprus and who needs an embassy in Yemen anyways. Oil should be tanking which is good for da peoples unless of course you have a job in the industry or in construction in Texas.
Helen of Troy Goes back to Greece; the world is saved!
Until the next battle between Hector (Potus) and Achilles (Putin)...
Its not over until its over!
Looser allways want a cease fire (to rearm/regroup)
Fuck cease fire, Donbass should kick the Nazi's ass to the Dniepner.
Fuck the Dnieper. This won't end till Russian troops are shaking hands with their French allies (under Marine Le Pen) at the Rhine, and a government of grown-ups is installed in Germany that can be removed, promptly, if it dares plot the violation of Russian sovereignty again.
Every time history repeats itself the price goes up. The Germans managed to get up after Russia beat the shit out of them the last time. They needn't count on being able to get up the next time.
Glory to Russia! Glory to Eurasia! Death to usurers and the Fourth Reich!
They agree to a failed ceasefire that was agreed upon in September? I don't even know what that means. That ship has sailed. The battle lines are completely different now.
Far too many psychopaths in Porky's government and the State Dept for this to work.
It's funny how these "events" don't cause the market to go down when it occurs, but a resolution sure does cause the market to spike.
What a joke.
All part of the DEAL
US preserves power over the Caliphate
Germany preserves power over EU and EEU destiny
EU, EEU, and US accept waves of refugees until the ISIS_Cancer is cured?
So does this mean the transgender pride parade is back on in Donetsk?
This wont work, and I hope it doesnt. Ukraine will just bide its time till they cause hell in the east again. So all those thousands of troops will be saved and used again for another attack on the east. I hope the rebels take more territory and end up in Kiev to hang Porkyshenko and Ratsenyuk.
Amazing that peace breaks out whenever Kerry is NOT around!
If all the Western Ukrainians have fled to Russia to wait out the war, then a cease-fire is a given, no?
But I thought "good news" was "bad news" in the NWO Normal?...
In that picture of Putin shaking fat fuck choco-jews "meat hook"...
What I wouldn't give to see him suddenly leap on that whale to crush his wind pipe once they met!
How can Putin shake that scum's hand when he knows the plan all along is for us to smash the shit out of russia by using uk? And what does the us say about this because they want the war to citinue and move nato right next to russia. Is this just some bullshit smile to my face and then game back on after the shit game show?
I'll never understand why stocks jump on some news when they weren't falling due to the lack of said news. It's such bullshit.
I'm sure McStain will be shitting in his depends if this thing actually holds, or has a massive heart attack trying not to.
Peace in our time. Lovely. When does Poroshenko go to the Hague?
Ukraine's territorial integrity?
Includes the Crimea surely.
Is that to be handed back?
I think not - so that declaration is a joke.
As for the agreement.
Who was there representing the resistance of the Donbass.
No one I noticed.
They maybe don't a ceasefire when they have thousands of Ukies pinned down.
"Who was there representing the resistance of the Donbass."
Didn't see your post until after I posted and said pretty much the same. lol.
It's going to end up with Russian intervention eventually. Poroshenko does not call the shots, Yatz and Turchinov do. The cease fire will not hold and (if NAF stick to it) will enable Kiev junta (again) to regroup and begin a counteroffensive. They are already amassing troops in the area of Mariupol and north from Lugansk. Besides, the most important (but absent) party to this deal, namely the USG, is hell bent on war in that region to weaken and subsequently dismember the Russian Federation.
Where is the Eastern Ukrainian member of this "Peace Initiative"? Seems they should be represented. Yes?
Why do you think Putin is there?
The Reich does not recognize the Donetsk or Lugansk People's Republics and has (obviously) nothing to say to their people that can't be said by spilling as much Russian blood as humanly possible.
They have to take Putin seriously because he can nuke them if he has to.
Why wouldn't one agree to a ceasefire? I mean you need someone to blame when you (US!) break it! Isn't this what's referred to as Nash equilibrium? Not expecting much.
there is no deal just yet...just reports of a document that may (or may not) be singed by the close of the conference.
"The Trilateral Contact Group on Ukraine is expected to sign a document on settling the crisis, which it will then hand over to the 'Normandy Four' leaders for approval, Russian Ambassador to Belarus Aleksandr Surikov said.
“Right now the contact group is finalizing and handing over [the] signed and agreed document and then [leaders of the 'Normandy Four'] will either approve it or not. Right now, the 'Normandy summit' is discussing possible variants of the document,” Surikov said, as quoted by RIA Novosti.
of course "possible variants" means not everybody is happy with or is agreeing on the contents of said document. that alone leaves the whole peace process and the veracity of any document singed today in doubt.
in order for any cease fire to take hold and last Kiev will have to accept the loss of the eastern part of the country and essentially recognize the DPR and the PRL as sovereign, independent entities and agree to their right to full and unrestricted self governance. that is the simple reality on the ground as Kiev can not re-take those areas militarily (at least not without direct and full western military intervention and we all know where that will lead) and those regions will not accept anything less than full independence.
but I would guess that the chances of the DC backed Kiev junta accepting this are slim to none.
I can't help but note that as these peace talks are taking place, the US media is hyping up the Russian invasion angle again. according to quotes from US Army Europe command there are thousands of Russian army regular forces fighting all along the eastern front as we speak pushing Kiev's outmatched and under equipped army back further. oh yeah and they also confirmed that 600 American troops will be deployed to the Ukraine to "train" the Ukrainian national guard.
so the narrative is already set regardless of what comes out of Minsk, DC is in fact, sending troops to train the Kiev army...but train them on what?
why, the heavy weapons they are about to send them of course to either fight off the evil Russians or maintain this supposed cease fire. either way sending Kiev tons of firepower is a done deal, the result of this meeting in Minsk doesn't even factor in and it never did.
the important thing now is just how Moscow will respond in light of the fact that they have already stated that such an action would be considered an act of war against the Russian Federation...
we're off the edge of the map mates.
Yellen gets a blowjob, let's buy!
