Hi Steve. From your opinion, I guess you must be pro-USA. But I am not Russian or pro-Russia. I just hope the world should have some balance of power between the West (West Europe and USA) and the East (ie Russia and China). Is time for USA and the Western powers to stop telling what other country to do or follow if they do not gone too far. The Western countries like UK, France, Spain, Portugal, Netherlands and even Germany once are imperalist power who conquer and invade other countires in Africa and Asia and the American continent. Even USA once is a colonial power. I know Western Europe history and the USA's history quite well. Especially, many of USA territories are seized from Mexico and of course some are bought from the France. But I hope both side to sit down and discuss the future of East Ukraine peacefully and not trhough proxy wars. East Ukriane's minority Russians will never give up their claim for independence and I also know many Russians living in Russia now have volunteer to secretly enter East Ukriane to join the war. USA actually have no right to tell what Russia should do in East Ukraine as those territories are once not long ago part of Russia. The USA themselves also do not have a clean history. The early USA also invades other territories and practice black slavery. However, Abraham Lincoln liberate the black slaves. The only USA's president I do respect well is Abraham Lincoln. For Obama, I think he is better compare to most whiteman president who often want USA to be at war. At least, Obama try to keep USA out from war but Obama are influenced by the Senate maybe who prefer war. You can compare the recent East Ukraine's Russian minority to the Sudetenland Germans of Czechoslovakia during World War 2. I know is similar But Sudetenland is part of former Austria empire and never part of Germany. But Ukriane is different. Ukriane is part of Russia for more than 200 years. Even USA's California, Texas and New Mexico and some other states are not so long being part of USA and less than 200 years. Also Putin maybe be cunning but if USA keep provoking Russia this will make more Russians hate the USA even more and make Putin faster to become absolute diactator of Russia. Some already call Putin the reincarnated Peter the Great of Russia. You knows who is Peter the Great??
