What a wank that article is, the bullshit Kevie's mate come out with. Showing China how to fit in the new world order.
Kevin's missus pulled some strings and now he gets the occasional gig lecturing students on politics!

"Obama said the European Union and allies like Canada and Japan all believed Russia had violated international law by mobilising troops following the February 22 ouster of pro-Kremlin president Viktor Yanukovych"
Abbott's Coal-ition and Australia apparently not have such a belief. Either way Australia is not worth a mention!

"Moscow has also threatened it could be forced to drop the dollar as a reserve currency and refuse to pay off loans to US banks if the US imposes sanctions over the Ukraine crisis.
'An attempt to announce sanctions would end in a crash for the financial system of the US, which would cause the end of the domination of the US in the global financial system.'
Black power made no mention of that in his God were tough and you will pay speeches!

The picture was, obviously, photo shopped.

Regardless, KRudd should keep his pudgy little fingers off anything that affects The World. He is hopeless at it.
I have absolutely no idea, and care less, what strings Terese pulls or thinks she can pull. She has a BA Arts with Psychology. He has a BA Arts with Mandarin. Useless degrees. Plus Kevin has never worked outside the Public Service in his life. He is your typical "shiny arse" and ran out of new ideas about 20 years ago. KRudd telling anybody how it is done is a fucking joke.

Obama has it that Tony and his Coal-ition have no objection to Russia's actions.
"Obama said the European Union and allies like Canada and Japan all believed Russia had violated international law by mobilising troops following the February 22 ouster of pro-Kremlin president Viktor Yanukovych."

I can see Putin's point of view on this issue.
It's Russia's historical turf. the west are pushing hard against Russia's borders it was only a matter of time that they would flex their muscles.
Always remember what you post, send or do on the internet is not private and you are responsible.

Ukrainian majority is pro Russian. Kerry being first one in makes it clear the vagary of western influence. Putin is no Gadhafi.

Obama has gone weak at the knees, now unsure of himself and how the rest of the world feels not just his interpretation of it!
"Mr Obama dismissed the Russian leader's claims, saying: 'President Putin seems to have a different set of lawyers making a different set of interpretations, but I don't think that's fooling anybody.'"

Obama hasn't gone any softer on Putin over the Ukraine than Bush went soft on Putin over Georgia ... but listening to conservative pundits you'd think otherwise.
