Just considering the people identifying as ukrainian/tartar combined with the reported turnout makes the outcome pretty impossible, as those two groups would be extremely unlikely to vote in favor. Yes I pointed that out before ,too. His official answer to that question is that he's good at math. The vote is just ridiculous. That four out of five non ethnic Russians vote in favor of Putin seems highly unlikely to me to say the least. | ||

You will probably realise what was happening there without reading any twitter stuff or some unknown guys whose twitters are getting thrown here whole thread. There is everything what you want to know about situation. From every POV. | ||

Looking at the list, Dmitry Rogozin is probably the most important. But one needs to analyze that more thoroughly. Edit: This is more thorough: | ||

But one needs to analyze that more thoroughly. Fuck, can US/EU take Mizulina from us instead of sanctioning? XD Matvienko is rather big figure here, Surkov as well. And Rogozin is one of few politicians who're really respected in community. Other not so big. And "sanctioned for his status" statement is ridiculous. It's like revenge instead of real sanctions. Weak move tbh. | ||

I can imagine it now... These people are barred from buying German chocolate directly from Germany, French wine directly from France, and Italian cars directly from Italy. They are highly encouraged, instead, to buy them from London. The list is as follows: Vladimir Putin Viktor Yanukovych | ||

Read more: http://voiceofrussia.com/news/2014_03_16/40-of-Crimean-Tatars-take-part-in-referendum-Crimean-PM-2361/ Seems odd they would state 90% turnout at closure of the polls then release figures showing more than 100%. Also they might be using difference figures, e.g. the referendum may have counted votes from Sevastopol and the surrounding metro area, rather than just the city, while the other figures may be from the city itself per the Ukrainian electoral roll that wasn't used by the Crimean's because it was blocked off. “The Ukrainian Election Commission blocked off electors database. But we used lists of 2012 and made up the database. The voting continues in a normal atmosphere,” he said. http://en.itar-tass.com/world/723785 (One would assume that "made up" isn't to be taken literally, since it's Russian -> English translation) | ||

Monitor is an investigation broadcast that usually has prove for everything they report. WDR is part of ARD, Germany's official broadcasting service. There you will see that part of the Ukrainian gas fields are already given to Chevron, Exxon and Shell to develop. They report it is planned to make Ukraine independent of Russian gas from 2020 onwards with a technology called fracking. They report the U.S. plans on the long term to replace Russia as a provider of gas to Europe by shipping it in liquid form over the ocean. You can now continue to bash Russia. I'm sure those big companies only care for the Ukrainian people, their freedom and democracy. | ||

And i can't say that he's hiding something :D You can't have anything undeclared in Russia or anything in other countries if you're working in government. Navalny's fund have already thrown away bunch of guys who had something UNDECLARED and there wasn't any Rogozin stuff :D As well as other guys in this list (from Russia ofc). | ||

(Reuters) - Russia's government acknowledged for the first time on Monday that the economy was in crisis, undermining earlier attempts by officials to suggest albeit weakening growth could weather sanctions over Ukraine. Moscow markets wait to see the full scale of western measures over the seizure of Ukraine's Crimea and support of its referendum to join Russia, after losing billions of dollars in recent weeks in state and corporate money. For weeks, Russian officials have said the confrontation between Moscow and the West over Ukraine that threatens economic sanctions and asset freezes would "weigh on the economy". Although not speaking directly about the impact from the conflict, Deputy Economy Minister Sergei Belyakov said on Monday the economy was in trouble. "The economic situation shows clear signs of a crisis," Belyakov told a local business conference. source (Reuters) - Ukraine's parliament, seeking to boost the country's military force in the face of Russia's takeover of the Crimea peninsula, endorsed a presidential decree on Monday to carry out a partial mobilization involving 40,000 reservists. Andriy Paruby, Secretary of the National Security and Defence Council, told parliament that 20,000 reservists would be deployed within the armed forces and the rest would be used within the newly-created National Guard. source | ||

"Domestic demand is set to halt on the uncertainty shock and tighter financial conditions, likely dipping the economy into a recession over second and third quarter of 2014," Vladimir Kolychev and Daria Isakova, economists are VTB Capital wrote in a note on Monday. "We are lowering our full-year growth outlook to 0.0 percent, and see downside risks if uncertainty remains elevated for a protracted period and/or severe sanctions are imposed." 0.0% is pretty dangerous.. | ||

The whole situation right now is knee jerk reactions (to the ousting of Yanukovych) and Russian propaganda/inciting. Pro-Ukrainian voices in Crimea are being actively silenced by the mob, or are being heavily persuaded by the armed forces and Russian nationalism in their region. If you're against the annexation, you don't want to be in Crimea (or let anybody know of your views). Overall, the huge difference is likely due to a mixed bag of Russian entanglement and regional outrage. Given a few weeks/months of "normal" activities and we'd likely see a jump in the numbers of a similar survey to join Russia, but not even above 50% most likely, since people wouldn't fear taking the stance to keep the "status quo." | ||
