I liked the speech too for the same reasons Ban. My guess is that there will be no united European front nor across the board enforcement of any sanctions. France is probably already meeting in secret with Russia to cut a trade deal.
I hope you are wrong on that one, but previous behavior would not preclude it.

What Obi says means squat.
A real intelligent analysis like Jack. NOT? Why do you waste your time posting if you have nothing substantial to contribute? We already know you base your opinions on nothing more than irrational hate for Obama, so why waste your time and ours? At least Ban has plenty to contribute other than meaningless patter.
Why do you waste your time reading me then canook?

If Putin was smart, he would invite another vote on Crimea with international monitors. This time with options, join Russia, stay with Ukraine (with guarantees Russia controls its naval base Ala Guantanamo) or independence. Set a 80% threshold. If it also went Russias way, as it surely would, it would give all parties a way out and save some face. Pretty hard to argue with self determination of the population. Allow Ukrainian nationals in Crimea to move to eastern Ukraine which also has a large population of Russians, and those Russians to move to Crimea after. Property swap. Much as happened with India and Pakistan in 1948.
I agree, my ancestors tried that in Virginia and you can see where that got us.

In today's paper, Putin has an 80% approval rating in Russia. What is Obama's, something like 35%.
