White House deeply concerned that the level of graft is not abating. Biden sent a “strict and specific” warning to the Coup Leader of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko and Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk that Washington’s further support for Kyiv will be jeopardised if the situation in the Kiev Regime does not change.
US Vice President Joe Biden is annoyed at the scale of corruption in Ukraine, while Washington is ready to significantly strengthen sanctions against Moscow. That’s according to Ukrainian e-zine Novoye Vremya, referring to their own sources.
The White House is “extremely concerned” that the level of corruption in Ukraine does not show a sign of abating.
This was reported by Michael Carpenter, Special Advisor to the US Vice President for Europe and Eurasia, at a press briefing in Washington, according to Novoye Vremya sources. Carpenter did not specify what the “specific warning” for Ukraine stands for.
Biden also fears that the Minsk agreement, even before the end of the year, will be completely disrupted by the elections to be held in the militant-controlled territories.
Carpenter also mentioned that Russia is building up a military base on the border with Ukraine. This may mean that the conflict may last “for years.”
New Russian military base appears near border with Ukraine
He added that in terms of a 10-point scale, the US sanctions against Russia are currently rank 3, and can be easily enhanced.

Do not think Nuland got the memo-she still thinks things are totally awesome and the progress is phenomenal.

Thsi actually is quite hilarious in that Biden placed his son on the board of Burisma Holdings, a Ukrainian gas producer. Burisma also is reported to be associated with Kolomoisky, an oligarch who has fallen out of favor with the current Ukrainian govt-hilarity ensues.

Russia can build up military bases where they want on their soil, and mainly where a war is close to their border.
Otan has the right to build up plenty bases around Russia, but Russia has no right on his territory, is it a new international rule ??
