US Official Claims 6,000 Russian Troops In Complete Control Of Crimea – Crisis Map Update

US Official Claims 6,000 Russian Troops In Complete Control Of Crimea – Crisis Map Update (ZeroHedge, March 2, 2014):

While the images and local news have been suggesting that Russia is in control on the Crimean peninsula, US officials (according to Bloomberg) have confirmed this:

  • *RUSSIAN FORCES IN COMPLETE CONTROL OF CRIMEA: U.S. OFFICIAL
  • *RUSSIA HAS 6,000 TROOPS IN CRIMEA, U.S. OFFICIAL SAYS
  • *KERRY TO REAFFIRM SUPPORT FOR UKRANIAN SOVEREIGNITY, PSAKI SAYS

Obama, Merkel, and Cameron are now on a conference call to discuss this “fact” and officials have just reported that US Secretary of State John Kerry will visit Kiev tomorrow (though we suspect not Sevastopol):

  • U.S. IS FOCUSED ON ECONOMIC, POLITICAL AND DIPLOMATIC OPTIONS ON UKRAINE, NOT ON ANY POSSIBLE U.S. MILITARY INTERVENTION, U.S. OFFICIAL SAYS
  • *U.S. CONSIDERING SANCTIONS ON RUSSIAN BANKS, OFFICIAL SAYS

  1. The US needs to stay out and get lost. The Ukraine is part of Russia, and always will be. Clown Kerry is the last idiot needed. What fools lead this nation.
    Looking at the nuclear leaking from Japan, San Diego, New Mexico and now Washington State, CA is surrounded. Let Clown Kerry pay attention to this crisis, it is a real one, not cooked up by greedy corporate media.
