Guardian: Reports the following from Capital Hill, " Congress approves major Ukraine aid package..Partisan bickering had held up $1bn in loan guarantees, but Senate and House pass bills to help shore up Ukraine economy ".
Lets Get Real:
This should help the new Kiev Government in the Ukraine, also as the article notes the IMF over all with give Kiev 27 billion dollars over the next two years, this will help the rocky Ukraine finances, there will be problems but at least the West is supporting a Government that wants to be part of the West, the previous President looted the Ukraine of its treasure and did a runner to Russia. The BIG question is WHY Russia has still not acted, as noted in previous post the US Intelligence Community thought that Putin would invade the East Ukraine, with his thousands of troops on the borders. It has been reported that 30 thousand troops are ready while others are on alert, you can not keep troops battle ready for days on end and have others on alert, either Putin is going for gold, that means the whole of the Ukraine or he will take his victory in the Crimea and wait his time, this blog is not sure what Putin is waiting for, is there a covert action that is planned that will give Putin the PR cover for invasion as with with Hitler with Poland in 1939, Hitler had German troops dressed up as Polish troops and then had them attack fellow Germans in Germany, is Putin waiting for that or more violence in the East Ukraine mounted by Russian intelligence. The wait is interesting, WHY!.
