Nemo1024, are you from Russia? To be precise: I'm not trying to undermine your opinion if you are - your opinion is your right. I'm just curious about your arguments for such thesis like "NATO-staged election circus".
I am originally from RSFSR, but I've lived more than half of my life in a Western country. I am watching the situation develop from a Western viewpoint, yet I can read all the info coming from the East as well, both in Russian and Ukrainian.
As for the last statement, the election is going to be a circus with all the opposition candidates having been pushed / threatened out of the run. And the situation in Ukraine has a NATO-tainted Yugoslavia-style signature all over it... Now, just putting two and two together...
Journalists are accused of terrorism by the Ukrainian Nazi-backed forces.
The image resembles those of the western journalists captured by Taliban or whatnot. Only then there was an indignant outcry from the West. This time, the Western media don't tell about this happening.
