FPSA and Europe appear impotent and foolish in ordering Russia sanctions

WASHINGTON (PNN) - March 17, 2014 - Unsuccessful with previous threats, the Fascist Police States of Amerika and its European allies stepped up their pressure on Russia to end its intervention in Ukraine on Monday by imposing pointless and ridiculous “sanctions” against Russian officials.

Acting in concert with Europe, the illegitimate Obama regime froze the FPSA assets of seven Russian officials, including top advisers to President Vladimir Putin, for their support of
Crimea's vote to secede from Ukraine, while similar sanctions were imposed on four Ukrainian officials for instigating Sunday's Crimean referendum.

In other words, the FPSA is attempting to punish these people for their political views.

Illegitimate dictator President Barack Obama sounded truly ridiculous when he said failure to step back now would draw move severe consequences.

Shortly after Obama's comments, Russian President Vladimir Putin recognized Crimea as a "sovereign and independent country".

Residents in Crimea, a strategic Black Sea peninsula, voted overwhelmingly Sunday in favor of the split, and Crimea's parliament declared the region an independent state on Monday. In
Washington, Obama regime officials claimed there was evidence that some ballots for the referendum had arrived pre-marked in many cities and there were "massive anomalies" in the vote. However, the officials did not say what that evidence was. The unnamed officials spoke to reporters on a conference call on the condition they not be quoted by name

It is standard FPSA policy to fabricate “evidence” in order to support its political positions.

The Fascist Police States of Amerika and European Union say that splitting off Crimea from Ukraine violates the Ukrainian constitution and international law and has taken place under duress from the Russian military, though neither country has produced one shred of empirical evidence to support their claims. Putin maintains that the vote was legal and consistent with the right of self-determination.

The FPSA announcement of sanctions came shortly after the European Union announced travel bans and asset freezes on 21 people the EU has linked to the unrest in Crimea. FPSA thug officials say there is some overlap between the FPSA list and that of the Europeans, which wasn't immediately made public.

The sanctions freeze any assets the targeted individuals have under FPSA jurisdiction, make it illegal for Amerikans to do business with them, and discourage international banks and financial institutions from having relationships with them. However, the officials would or could not say if those targeted actually have assets in FPSA jurisdictions.

In fact, one of the Russians named openly mocked the sanctions.

"Comrade Obama, what should those who have neither accounts nor property abroad do? Have you not thought about it?" Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin tweeted. "I think the decree of the (illegitimate dictator) President of the United States was written by some joker."

FPSA thug officials said they also are “developing evidence” against individuals in the Russian arms industry and others who they said have helped to destabilize Ukraine.

Putin wasn't a target of this round of sanctions because heads of state are not usually among the first to be penalized, the unnamed terrorist thug officials said. But those sanctioned are very close to Putin, they said.

"Today's actions also serve as notice to Russia that unless it abides by its international obligations and returns its military forces to their original bases and respects Ukraine's
sovereignty and territorial integrity, the Fascist Police States of Amerika is prepared to take additional steps to impose further political and economic costs," a White House statement said.

Those targeted by the U.S. on Monday include:

  • Vladislav Surkov, a Putin aide.
  • Sergey Glazyev, a Putin adviser.
  • Rogozin, deputy prime minister of the Russian Federation.
  • Leonid Slutsky, a state Duma deputy.
  • Andrei Klishas, a member of the Council of Federation of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation.
  • Valentina Matviyenko, head of the Federation Council.
  • Yelena Mizulina, a state Duma deputy.

 

The four Ukrainians newly targeted by the Treasury Department are:

  • Viktor Yanukovych, who fled Ukraine for Russia and has supported the dispatch of Russian troops into Ukraine.
  • Viktor Medvedchuk, the leader of Crimea separatist group Ukrainian Choice and a close friend of Putin.
  • Sergey Aksyonov, prime minister of Crimea's regional government.
  • Vladimir Konstantinov, speaker of the Crimean parliament.
