    BREAKING: Protesters storm parliament in #Moldova in protest against new PM. - @maxseddon pic.twitter.com/FMYQA4M4aR

    Interesting split in commentary on #Moldova protests. Some call new gov't "pro-EU." Others note new PM is close to oligarch Plahotniuc

    Moldova: protesters who broke into #parliament building demand snap elections. Situation is tense but not violent https://twitter.com/NewsMakerMD/stat...51800443293696

    Well informed proRussian account with good Moscow contacts...

    Time to be watching Moldova protests right now: Russia is saying a definite NO to a new pro-EU Prime Minister

    Protesters storm Moldovan parliament after new pro-EU government approved:
    http://www.rferl.org/content/moldova.../27499491.html

    Maxim Edwards @MaximEdwards
    Protesters in Chișinău have now broken down doors of Moldova's parliament, started to disarm police & show them out. Things, downhill, fast.

    Maxim Eristavi @MaximEristavi
    For #Moldova watchers one thing is clear: it's not the 'pro-Russia vs pro-EU' uprising.
    It's the people vs. oligarchs.
    Don't oversimplify.


    Two of the organisers of tonight's protest are clearly pro-RU: Renato Usatii and Igor Dodon.

    So, Kremlin media lead the reports on protestors storming #Moldova's parliament building. Russian provocation?

    UKR Mission to OSCE @UKRinOSCE

    We regret Russia blocked expanding mandate of #OSCE Obs.Mission at 2Rus.BSP's 2all border sections, ajacent2uncontrolled part of #Donbas

    Unwillingness to let int.observers in proves to Russia's interest in maintaining ways of reinforcement of its proxies in #Donbas


    СММ ОБСЄ в Україні @OSCE_SMM
    Hug: So-called “LPR” prevented SMM from reaching border areas, namely Chervonyi Zhovten. SMM not able to access this area since March 2015

    СММ ОБСЄ в Україні @OSCE_SMM
    Hug: Sides must let SMM do its job. E.g. last week 21 freedom-of-movement restrictions on SMM; all but 3 imposed by so-called ‘DPR’, ‘LPR’

    СММ ОБСЄ в Україні @OSCE_SMM
    Hug: We’ve seen a tendency for sides to re-position closer towards each other esp in W&NW outskirts of #Horlivka, most notably in Zaitseve

    СММ ОБСЄ в Україні @OSCE_SMM
    Hug: Fighting in/around #Horlivka continues, sharp spike in violence on Sunday: first small arms & light weapons used, later: tanks&mortars

    Russian decision on guns or butter is a matter of a few days away now........

    Putin's spokesman Peskov says what's happening to ruble is not collapse. So I am lost at words.

    WHAT THE HECK does Putin mean by this statement........??

    Putin just said that Lenin's ideas destroyed USSR.
    Putin: Lenin planted nuke under Russia

    pic.twitter.com/vaWgrBIgsi
    http://russia.liveuamap.com/en/2016/...e-under-russia

    AGAIN now we are seeing a former KGB officer saying this......what was he saying in 1989 in Dresden????

    Putin criticized Lenin sharply today, claiming his work eventually led to collapse of USSR & historical Russia.
    http://www.interfax.ru/russia/490856

    So is Putin in fact reputing the entire Communist period and that he is siding with the "White Russians".....???

    I hate to agree with Peskov, but this is not a crash in Russia's currency. When Iran releases their oil reserves, then we will see a crash.

    Here is the math behind @Billbrowder's claim that Russia's Central Bank has less than $200B in reserves https://ninajobe.wordpress.com/2016/01/18/rus

    Experience of over 18 months indicates that the so called "ceasefire" really never existed......unless a steady state of 10-15 attacks per day occur.....ONCE you cross 50 attacks a day it is full scale warfare.

    69 violations of ceasefire yesterday. 120mm mortar used near Starohnativka http://liveuamap.com/en/2016/22-janu...y-120mm-mortar …

    Interesting comments being posted over the last week or so indicating that the Russian mercenaries feel their war is lost and they are losing.......pay is late, Putin's moves and a stronger UAF as reasons for this.....
