Where is that captain blind? Even Germany and France do want to get into this mess.

A document captured from an official walking along downing street.. Do you believe a document discussing such an issue would be handled so casually in London?

(Reuters) - President Vladimir Putin said on Tuesday that Russia saw no need to use military force in the Crimea region of Ukraine for now, in remarks apparently intended to ease East-West tension over fears of war in the former Soviet republic.

The use of force by Russia in Ukraine would be a choice of last resort, Putin said, and sanctions being considered against Moscow by the West would be counter-productive.

Putin told a news conference at his state residence outside Moscow there had been an "unconstitutional coup" in Ukraine and ousted leader Viktor Yanukovich, an ally of Russia, was still the legitimate leader of the country despite giving up all power.

Earlier on Tuesday, Putin ordered troops involved in a military exercise in western Russia, close to the border with Ukraine, back to their bases.

in other news

The MICEX was up 5.19 percent at 16.00, Moscow time, with the RTS adding 5.93 percent. This marks a major turnaround from Monday, when the ruble-based MICEX dropped 10.79 percent on Monday, and the dollar-based RTS index fell 12.01 percent, the lowest level since September 2009. On the same day the ruble hit an all-time low against both the dollar and euro. Most analysts attributed the fall to the growing tension over Ukraine.


That's Putin eating humble pie and retreating, they will now allow him to progressively retreat under over some time to reduce the media glare.

Just watched the interview on bbc world a few minutes ago. There was this guy who said that the Russian economy has, at its heart, lot of corruption which directly benefits the so called oligarchs who then invest most of their proceeds in London. He says that, for every pound stolen from Russia, up to 99pence are invested in London. For this reason then, London would not want to take any action that would jeopardize such capital inflows.

Live on CNN, AlJazeera, BBC, EuroNews, etc, Kerry's news conference in Kiev:
>> the U.S offers Ukraine a 1billion dollar loan guarantee to shore up its economy.
>>diplomacy and respect for sovereignty would best resolve the crisis.
>>Russia creating a pretense to be able to invade further.
etc.

I do know Downing Street. What am suggesting is that maybe that paper was photographed as a means of leaking the information to test the waters.

true. the leak is ridiculous and is clearly a deliberate move to pacify putin. europe is hesitant to piss off the russians. the americans are shouting hoarse but they know their citizens are too far away and disconnected to be as affected as the europeans.
