As expected, EU is having trouble. Germany is going to ask Russia to relent on its counter-sanctions, prohibiting imports of EU foods:
http://lenta.ru/news/2015/01/11/embargo/

If Russia's any sense they'll keep that one, the EU passed a vote to allow EU states to grow GM crops a few days ago:
http://inhabitat.com/eu-vote-clears-the-way-for-gm-crops-in-europe/
And the Zionist media's spin on it:
http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/01/13/us-eu-crops-idUSKBN0KM1IC20150113

There is a strong anti-GMO movement, saying that Russia has enough fertile land to grow large crops without any GMO boosts. Several Medvedev-period laws that gave preference to Western GMO products on Russian market are being repelled.

It's again the same old "let's impose sanctions because we want to impose sanctions".
How else to explain the "if no progress is made in the Ukrainian crisis settlement", when Nazis in Kiev stepped up shelling of Donbass and prepare for a full out genocide offensive.

And the following 7 countries want nothing to do with it:

Swiss hotels are losing about 30% of their income due to Russian tourists not turning up this winter:
http://ria.ru/economy/20141229/1040783542.html

Where did the Russian Alpine tourists go? Remember the successful Winter Olympics in Sochi and how the Western naysayers were predicting doom and desolation for Sochi after the games are over? Well, the hotels of Sochi, which were enough to host people from all over the world, are fully-booked for the winter, and the resorts are in full swing.

Other countries are also suffering losses as Russian tourists decide to spend vacations domestically:
http://www.vz.ru/society/2014/12/22/721586.html

A Russian saying comes to mind: "Don't dig a hole for someone else: you'll fall into it yourself."


You speak about ..Sochi .. has yes the delirious games with buildings done by non paid people ... like a real communist country ?

Code:
According to Kremlin sources familiar with this extraordinary “war order,” Putin became “enraged” after his early August meeting with Saudi Prince Bandar bin Sultan who warned that if Russia did not accept the defeat of Syria, Saudi Arabia would unleash Chechen terrorists under their control to cause mass death and chaos during the Winter Olympics scheduled to be held 7-23 February 2014 in Sochi, Russia.

Lebanese newspaper As-Safir confirmed this amazing threat against Russia saying that Prince Bandar pledged to safeguard Russia’s naval base in Syria if the Assad regime is toppled, but he also hinted at Chechen terrorist attacks on Russia’s Winter Olympics in Sochi if there is no accord by stating: “I can give you a guarantee to protect the Winter Olympics next year. The Chechen groups that threaten the security of the games are controlled by us.”

Of course this article comes from the same website you posted early ...

For the moment, Russia is the winner in global geopolitical struggle
Quote
For the first time since the end of World War II, the leading global actor is no longer the United States. The country that led the Western coalition to victory in World War II, that created NATO, the IMF, the World Bank and the Marshall Plan, that backed the creation of the European Union, that dominated the Middle East, Latin America, Europe and much of Asia for so many decades, is no longer globally dominant.

Who is replacing the United States? Russia.

I wrote about Latvia and "New Wave" moving out of Jurmala in the post above. Now the "Screaming Kivin" - the musical version of the popular humoristic game KVN is also moving out, and a humour show is expected to follow. Jurmala will again turn into a sleepy village, like many other villages on the BAltic coast of Latvia. The only reason Jurmala became popular in the first place, was because Latvia was a very popular place, like travelling to the West, in the USSR times, so many of the Soviet pop-stars bought property there and acted as a magnet. Oh, the irony.

Also, I wrote that Latvia asked EU for more money for anti-Russian propaganda. I thought that was in the connection with the above, but it seems the reason is quite different:

http://www.rg.ru/2015/01/13/latviya.html

Quote
More than 70 percent of Russian-speaking residents of Latvia support the policy of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Nearly 60 percent of respondents said the embodiment of evil in the world is the United States and NATO. In the conflict between Ukraine and Russia the majority of Russian-speaking residents of Latvia are on the side of Moscow. Position of Kiev is supported by only 15 percent of respondents.

These are the results of a public opinion poll conducted among the Russian-speaking environment in the Baltic republic. The poll was ordered by the authorities of Latvia. According to the journalists of program Neka "Personi" ga" channel TV3, Latvian officials did not expect such results and still keep them secret. The correspondents of the TV channel managed to find out only some of the figures obtained in the survey.



Meanwhile in France:

Last year Latvia banned 3 Russian singers (one of them is Ukrainian: Kobzon) from attending the musical festival "New Wave" because of their standpoint on the reunification of Crimea with Russia.

This year "New Wave" will be conducted in Sochi, instead of Jurmala:

http://www.gazeta.ru/business/news/2015/01/12/n_6816269.shtml

And Latvia will loose €17 million because of their own foolishness.

http://www.gazeta.ru/business/news/2015/01/12/n_6816269.shtml

By the way, when Yatsenjuk equated Nazi Ukraine to Nazi Germany, painting both as natural allies, the official German response to it: everyone has the right to their own opinion:
http://ria.ru/world/20150112/1042238993.html

So, yes, hypocrisy as the primary European value.

The secondary European value is Nazism, the spectre of which walks across Europe now.

Latvia asked for funds from EU to step up their anti-Russian propaganda, while a representative of "Latvian "Future Institute" called to kill all non-sitizens in Latvia (people who were born there, but are denied citizenship - there are about 300.000 of those, another Human Right "European value"):

http://lenta.ru/news/2015/01/12/latvia/



And only Nazi-Ukraine and their USA backers have not understood that sanctions are not affecting Russia.

USA's man in Kiev, Poroshenko, says that sanctions against Russia work and demands that they be prolonged. Good for Russia.

Oh, and the comedy club of the rating agencies:
Fitch downgrade will have 'limited' effect on Russia
http://rt.com/business/221791-fitch-russia-limited-effect/

Someone is desperate here to pull a rating stunt in denial of the obvious contradiction.

Notice in the following quote, how the reality is expected to follow the rating, and not the other way around, the rating being a gauge of reality:

Quote
“There’s 40-50 percent likelihood that Russia will be downgraded to ‘junk’ status. If it happens the Russian market will start falling sharply and the pressure on the ruble will increase,” Tikhomirov added.

However:

Quote
“It is obvious that a country with US$400 billion of reserves and a public debt of 12 percent of GDP cannot be considered as ‘junk’. The ratings do not reflect the reality anymore,” he said, adding that Russia received an investment grade rating in 2004 when it had $80 billion of reserves and the oil price was around $35.

Apparently they don't want to impose new sanctions as it would allegedly "lead to chaos in Russia". Nice bit of projecting of own problems. Russia is doing just fine and is asking to be sanctioned a bit more to improve its domestic standing.  Tongue

Loss from tourism in Russia, in the mean time, is 20% to 40%.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/destinations/europe/russia/11069901/Russian-aggression-deters-tourists.html

Also consider that Russian tourists in russia will be spending rubles, while foreign tourists would have been spending much needed euros and dollars.

And Sochi? You mean this Sochi?

http://weburbanist.com/2014/09/09/post-olympic-abandonment-sochi-already-on-the-road-to-ruin/

I do wish them luck, though I can't find anything about that place being a hot destination right now. I don't even know if some of the hotels are finished being built yet (they were still under construction during the Olympics).


Plus I wouldn't bet that a lot of that "Russian tourists are deciding to spend vacations domestically" is because russians are boycotting other countries. It's more likely because they are broke due to the fall of the ruble and drop in economy and employment. A Russian saying comes to mind: what is the relationship between dollars, pounds, and rubles? A pound of rubles is worth a dollar.

Sanctions is good. It will make russian people think.

No it will make Putin expand his aggression to maintain power  Smiley

So, according to you, this is the desired outcome for the USA that started those sanctions after they turned Ukraine into a basket case? Truly wise politicians are sitting in Washington...  Roll Eyes

I guess Liliputin is a fucking idiot then. USA allegedly starts something in Ukraine, Russia falls for it, going in guns blazing, and ends up in a trap, where everyone in the west hates them, China is wary of them, and their economy is in the shitter. What an idiot they have elected.

In fact these sanctions are targeted against EU, because EU losses are far worse than Russia's.

LOL! Are you claiming that the Euro will collapse more than 50, and Europe's GDP can be as low as -4% next year?  Grin

Unlike Russia, Europe has an economy, and a tech sector.


2.  Of course we're thinking now, but not as it was expected by Obama & his masters. Current thoughts are driven by Alexander Nevsky's statement: "Whoever comes to us with a sword, from a sword will perish". You know, the most of us didn't paid too much attention to U.S. But now we're beginning to think that your government is a cancer of humanity which should be eliminated in a violent manner. Say thank you to Obama for this.

That's funny, because US did not come to Russia with a sword. US didn't come to Russia with anything at all. Not a single US tank, jet, or soldier came anywhere near Russia. All US did was get a bunch of countries to shun Russia for being a bully, and not play with it any more, and Russia got so upset that no one wants to play with it that it's throwing tantrums and falling apart. And you guys are falling for it, thinking US is some big aggressor, and an evil enemy attacking poor Russia.

That's what Paul Craig Roberts and other clear-thinking economists in US and EU had been saying all along. Pity that EU' politicians are, as a Russian saying goes, "sawing over the branch that they are sitting on".

The conclusion of that article is the best (in bold):

Quote
Most Western politicians condemn Putin because he pursues his nation’s interests and doesn’t do what our governments want. While events in Ukraine and Crimea are often presented as black and white, the reality is actually grey – with significant wrongdoing on both sides. Most well-informed people know this, wherever they’re from, even if, in the current climate, they don’t have the guts to say it.

We Westerners can cheer on Russia’s economic problems. We can hope for a full-on currency collapse and rub our hands with glee. If that happens, though, Russia’s next leader could make Putin seem like a softie. We could also provoke a repeat of the systemic global meltdown of 2008 – in which the big Western economies would suffer more than most.
