Ukraine at the precipice.

Just watched the Fox News report about it. Looks like they're coming unglued over there.

Those protesting are anti-Moscow and pro-West, correct?

Correct. I can understand the Ukrainians extreme hesitence with going with Russia, but with the economic collapse of of the EU on the horizon, unemployment through the roof & housing collapse, it may be a smarter choice for economic survival to go with Russia, and several other countries that are trying to form their own banking conglomerate based on a gold backed currency (Most possibly the Wan), with the goal of using it as the new petro currency and totally divesting from the USD.

If I was them I'd choose BRICS over Bretton-Woods.

My wife is Ukrainian, and I've been to the very place in Kiev where the protests are happening numerous times. It's a sad day for Ukraine, and every Ukrainian I know in the USA is having a hard time dealing with their normal day to day lives knowing what is happening over there. Yanukovych is a criminal and a puppet of Czar Putin. The people of Ukraine deserve better.

I was born in Kiev and though I have no ties left there, and have not been back since Dec 3rd 1990 I still feel sad for the state of affairs. Ukrainians hate Russians since they lost their independence to them last century and the feelings have only gotten stronger since their independence was regained. There is even a derogatory term for Russians in the Ukranian language lol. Having a president who is essentially siding with the enemy after years of western leaning leaders only pours salt in the wounds.

My father and I were just discussing it, I wanted to snow Kiev to my wife, it's one of the oldest cities in Europe, but its not going to happen any time soon.
