    This is a sample of this isolationist mentality of the Obama Administration—they were actually part and parcel of the so called Normandy Five when we were in Normandy for the first meeting—THEN Obama pulled out leaving it for the Europeans to handle with it now being the Normandy Four.

    After the Kerry Sochi Putin meeting where Kerry actually criticized the Ukrainian President in front of Putin the US attempted to setup a back channel between Nuland and Russia in order to get back into the Normandy format---Russia has effectively sidelined the US and frozen them out of the following meetings and basically the meetings are going in circles as Putin wants the political points inside Minsk 2 to be fulfilled and is basically refusing to implement the military points-ie total and complete POW exchanges, total withdrawal of Russian troops and her mercenaries, restoration of the Ukrainian border, total and complete withdrawal of all heavy weapons verified by OSCE and a total and complete monitoring by OSCE—none of that has been achieved.

    Nuland and her counterpart had several meetings but lately not a single one as they were not going anywhere and after she was accused of pressuring the Ukraine into a unilateral appeasement move with no reciprocal demands on Russia she has not been to the Ukraine until yesterday.

    Russia has gone into a ceasefire right now because of Syria, Putins UN visit, the coming potential EU sanctions rollovers in December etc.

    Below is from yesterday’s meetings---NOTICE Germany is harping that progress is being made and the Ukrainian response was nothing was achieved—all the Russians wanted to do was talk about elections and yet they are still occupying eastern Ukraine and per Minsk 2 they should have been pulling out by now-along with their mercenaries and should have exchanged the remaining 189 POWs.

    It is really worth reading the Minsk 2 agreement in order to see what Russia has never implemented all the while demanding the Ukraine fulfill every point.

    Notice just how Germany wants progress so they can get back to business as usual.

    AND just where is the US in all of this????? AWOL across the board—that is isolationism not retrenchment.

    Russia now stating there are no Russians in eastern Ukraine although the demo trainer in this video is definitely GRU Spetsnaz---

    Sharp shift in OPSEC in the Kremlin. Trainer is evidently from Spetsnaz as the training centers around sabotage attacks---

    Declared Support for Putin Not a Measure of Support for Regime, Milov Says

    Paul Goble

    Staunton, September 13 – Russians continue to support Vladimir Putin as a kind of “distant ‘ambassador of Russia to the world’ who somewhere defends [their] ‘interests,’” but “the gap between support of Putin and the absence of support for real power locally and the system of power built by Putin as such is enormous,” Vladimir Milov says.

    The Russian politician and former deputy energy minister says that “Putin is Putin, but the real administration in Russia is being carried out in an entirely different way. Putin doesn’t participate in it … and people have had enough of the monopoly system of administration” the Kremlin leader has put in place (kasparov.ru/material.php?id=55F4568D6E1D6).

    Many haven’t noticed this divide, Milov continues, because they are distracted by television reporting on “’Putin and his international adventures,’ but the dissatisfaction of people is very obvious” especially since “the Ukrainian theme, Crimea and the Donbas in general do not have importance. These are marginal themes which in general don’t agitate people.”

    To be sure, he continues, “the passivity and the lack of faith in the possibility of change for the better among people is great.” Consequently, “the task of politicians is to overcome this passivity and shake people up.” Despite polls and voting patterns to the contrary, “this is a completely achievable task.”

    Putin’s ruling “United Russia” Party “is an absolutely dead brand, like monarchy in 1917. No one will follow it anywhere,” and thus it is far from clear “how they will raise this dead body for the 2016 Duma elections.”

    “In general,” Milov says, “this situation looks like the one in 2011 [when protests spread across Russia] even though all sociologists predicted ‘business as usual’” and confidently predicted “victory for the party of party in the Duma elections.”

    There is a reason sociologists do so: they “telephone one and the same set of grandmothers once a month who answer in the same way.” Politicians have a better grasp of the situation, he suggests, because “they work on the land and feel the real attitudes” of the people. And thus he urges everyone to remember that “no sociologists predicted” the 2011 protests.

    Interesting statement from the German FM---


    GermanForeignOffice ✔ @GermanyDiplo

    FM #Steinmeier on yesterday’s progress re #Ukraine: Tough piece of work! Now working group needs to implement results http://bit.ly/1J5GwNl

    ESPECIALLY in light of the fact that the Ukrainian FM stayed that absolutely nothing had been achieved as usual since the Russians were unwilling to discuss the returning of POWs and the border to the Ukraine control as stated in Minsk 2.

    Germany desperately wants to go back to business as usual as do the French so are they spinning lies into truths?????
