Voice of America: Ukraine: Russia Sending Troops to Back Rebels
WNU Editor: The last thing that this region needs right now (in the middle of winter) is a full fledged war .... but this is what is now happening in and around Donetsk. Information and news from independent sources on the conflict is something that is becoming very difficult to get right now. Even my own friends and contacts who are in the Ukraine government and in parliament do not know what is exactly happening in eastern Ukraine .... relying more on international news reports rather than their own media and officials. I can say the same on the Russian side .... disinformation and denials on Russian involvement are the rule for Moscow's spokesmen .... but just like in Kiev where few and few people are beginning to believe in what the Ukraine government is saying, no one in Russia is believing what the Russian government is saying either.
As to what is my take on the next few days (an escalation or a slowdown in the fighting) ....the Kremlin has already indicated where they may be going ..... Kiev’s new offensive in Donbass may lead to irreversible consequences – Moscow (RT). In short .... if Ukraine does not back down, expect a major Russian escalation.
