US has ‘major concerns’ about Russia
PRESS TV
Thursday, December4, 2008
The US sees Russia’s presence in Georgia and Moldova and its suspension of Cold War era arm control agreements as major concerns.
“Russia’s suspension of its implementation (of the Treaty on Conventional Forces in Europe, CFE) and its military presence in Moldova and Georgia are major concerns,” US Under Secretary of State William Burns was quoted by AFP as saying on Thursday.
The remarks were made during a meeting of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) which was held in Helsinki.

Russia stationed its forces in Georgia on August 8 after an attack by Georgian troops on South Ossetia to retake the control of the breakaway region.
Moscow later withdrew its forces and deployed them to South Ossetia and Abkhazia amid Georgia’s protest.
“The host country’s consent to the stationing of forces is a core principle of the CFE treaty,” Burns said.
He also urged Russia to allow European observers into the two breakaway Georgian regions to monitor the ceasefire there.

Russia=Hypocracy
What about Chechnya? If Georgia had helped Chechnya in any way there would have been nothing left of Georgia. I guess that the Russian government believes that “might makes right”.

Here is a video alex , that I edited and added infowars.com on the screen ,on an address to the nation by stephen harper on dec 3 2003.I posted it on Youtube to raise awareness.To this date Harper has rejected a stimulis package of 2 percent or 30 billion as recommended by the G 20 summit.
I notced that since the bailouts in the Usa have began they now total 8.3 trillion well its funny that harper has to this date refused a stimulis package from the banks . he has a minority government
and the 3 parties have turned on him because he has not introduced a stimulis package. I am demanding a referendum to determine who should be prime minister , in my opinion the 3 opposing parties will introduce a stimulis package. Parliment has been suspended until Jan 27 2009.I have a feeling harper is gone unless he introduces a stimulis package ! The only way i feel it could be stopped is if there was a referendum to allow him legitamacy to continue as Prime Minister. I know they can rig elections and pull a dealy plaza as well but what other options are there to stop this banking coup in canada.
Conservative party 143 seats
Liberal party 76 seats
Ndp 37 seats
Bloq Quebecois 50 seats 163 seats vs 143 seats conservative party

WORLD HAS “MAJOR” CONCERNS ABOUT AMERICA
hot of the press, it appears people of the world have ‘major’ concerns about USA foriegn policy. After vitually destroying south america and its people for 50 years, a proxy war that continues today, endless coups in the middle east, and military bases in 127 countries, countless wars ranging from vietnam, iraq, somalia, palestine, syria, pakistan based on nothing but war crimes and terrorism, the take over of the country of the chongo islands and removal its people to build a large military base, countless false flag inccidents that are responsible for the deaths of countless lives, breaking every international law that was created to maintain peace in this world, it appears that the world has ‘major concerns about AMERICA.
hhhhhhmmmmmmm perhaps this is why they are the most hated country in virtually every corner of the globe, perhaps they will get a shock with their next war when they realise no one but israel will support them, and that the world will most likely place sanctions on this country which is already broke as a joke.
shame on you america, and shame on your people for standing idolly and doing nothing..

William Burns should stop making anouncements unless he holds up a sign stating he’s a fool. CFE is only suspended and not scrapped. Russia hopes they’ll sign updated version which takes into account the expansion from 16 NATO countries to 26 which really has big difference in how land forces are distributed. It doesn’t take much to see whose being antagonized.
James just proved why America shouldn’t interfere in other countries with lacking knowledge in world history. That’s not an insult to you James, but the histories in those regions are very very old and there was a lot of territorial movements in that region as different empires moved across them from Russia, Turks, and Persians. Russia actually protected Georgia and the two governments were friends. And now the US just comes there for oil in the caspian sea and just appears very arrogant in the region. I am replying to your comment because I have read similar comments on many websites. People here just seem more mature for discussion so I post here.
Another thought, if you take a look on google earth, look at the Black Sea and Caspian Sea. Note the US Navy has an increased presence in the Black Sea and see how close Georgia and Russia are in the Black Sea? It is very tense there right now, but it is not on CNN. I am very much afraid as NATO and USA are escorting ships and rearming Georgia “To NATO standards” again that they’ll just start a larger conflict over there. Analysts already know it is about oil and also airbases against Iran. These conflicts are not in the interest of Russia or in for those in the world for that matter. I hate warmongers.
Lastly, Evan…. I am not the type to speak on religion. I am Orthodox Christian and speaking on behalf of Russia… I can hardly see Russia attacking Israel and destroying them. I know many Christians in the US that follow the end of times believes in this, but I can tell you people here love family and care little for war. Also, Soviet Union was first to recognize Israel as a nation. Second, the nationals of Israel are largely of Russian decent. A nice sign to prove my point, the Israelis sold many weapons to Georgia during the brief conflict. The backlash Israel felt from this event was minimum. There would have to be a very large provication on Israel’s part to warrant such a response. Georgia used Israeli UAV’s and Russia recently announced they have plans to buy some also. I found that amusing. Anyways, sometimes your enemies aren’t who they appear.

Caleb.. Your points against American government are 100% valid. I think a lot of American’s are against the government or not clear of the truth since news networks print crap like Russia invades Georgia as Georgia is starting a war with massive rocket bombardments of a sleeping city under a UN protected mandate carried out by Russian Peacekeepers. So they are told by an establishment and don’t understand that the TV tells lies and half truths. Also in final defense of the the American public. I know we believe they should do something to stop a millions from dying in their wars and they just sit there, but think-would you be ready to look all your family members in the eye. Kiss them for the last time, grab a gun and go attack your government? Also, there is no rallying consenses to do it. Maybe because they are being monitored via internet, mobile, and telephone communications. With the fear of terrorism anyone can be arrested and labeled a terrorist and if you want to go anti establishment, you’ll definitely be arrested. So honestly, it is a much more difficult thing to do. Watch what happens to people in USA for riding a bike in New York or watch what happens when Alex Jone’s gets on a Megaphone to protest September 11th. He’s been arrested over and over again… I guess they catch him on disturbance of the peace. I think he maybe disturbing their lies though…
You can see how freedoms of speech and assembly can be infrindge upon. Anyways, I think others are in disbelief or can’t believe their government could be so bad. Watch them at a baseball or American Football game. They stand to their anthem and they’re patriotic. These are sad times for America… I think America will fall under the economic stress, but she’ll stand up. Just like Russia did. Anyways, if something like that were to happen, the government will be weakened and will allow for better grassroots to take hold of the government. So I can see a better future for everyone after this time of crisis. Just my opinion…

Caleb, I understand about the forefathers fighting the Great Patriotic War. It is ashame to see skin heads multiplying after millions died trying to end that nonsense. People here in my country seem to be open to new ideas if it is supported with facts or good logic. If you visit Russia make sure you read a lot of books first because you’ll be constantly asked about the latest novels. =)
People that can’t understand, believe in the goodness of people. They’re usually of the older generation. I agree with you, these bad government leaders are very frustrating… I don’t like Condaleeza Rice and how wars and death seem to follow where ever she travels. I think she should go on a hunting trip with Dick Cheney.
