Petro Poroshenko And Theresa May, Failed Leaders On The Same Disastrous Trajectory

Ukraine’s president has recently warned Russian tanks are amassing along the border between the two countries amid increasing tensions. The comments came late last month after three Ukrainian naval boats were seized in the Kerch Strait by Russia.
President Petro Poroshenko has allegedly shown images of what he claims to be hundreds of tanks preparing for an invasion.
He told Sky News:
“This is the tank base just 18km from our border, this was happening in September, October, and now.”
“This is 18km from my border, this is the same warehouse where they have their ammunition, the same where they have multi-rocket launch systems, we should be prepared to protect my country.”
Satellite imagery from Google Earth taken sometime in November from the Defense Blog has verified Poroshenko claims. Photos show hundreds of Russian main battle tanks at a new military installation in the Kamensk-Shakhtinsky region.
The Russian base is about 18 kilometers (11.1 miles) away from the rebel-held territory in eastern Ukraine. Images show hundreds of main battle tanks, with thousands of military trucks, support systems, artillery pieces, tankers, and troop transport vehicles.
Russia has been quietly building up its forces near the border with Ukraine since late summer and now has a military force greater than 2014, the year Moscow annexed Crimea, Viktor Muzhenko, the commander of Ukrainian armed forces, told Reuters in an interview last week.
In front of us is an aggressor who has no legal, moral or any other limits,” he said. “It is very difficult to predict when it will occur to him to begin active combat actions against Ukraine.”
“This (the Kerch Strait incident) was an act of aggression from regular forces, the border service (of the Russian Federation) in relation to the Ukrainian armed forces,” Muzhenko added.
Eric Zuesse via The Strategic Culture Foundation, made a great point in October that Washington is now treating Ukraine as if it were a NATO member, donating warships and military equipment to the country for use against Russia. This is the latest indication that America’s military-industrial complex is shifting to Ukraine as the epicenter to start World War III, and from which the nuclear war is to be sparked against Russia.
There is a reason why Russia is amassing hundreds of main battle tanks on the Ukranian border, that is because the next geopolitical flare-up is right around the corner, likely to occur during the next global recession.

Are they truly ‘failed’ leaders or are they operating according to the agenda the Banksters gave them?
Is this a Russian propaganda site?
I don’t think the US wants to start WW3 just yet. What it wants is for Ukraine to fight a war on Russia and oblige NATO Europe to go to its help, to limit the destruction to Europe and Russia but without affecting the US. Hence the “gifts” of battleships to Kiev. And Poroshenko is desperate enough to start such a war to save his power. Russia will move with overwhelming power – the total will be more like Georgia. The EU will likely refuse to go to war against Russia to save Ukraine. It isn’t worth the destruction of… Read more »
Excellent comment.
I understand what you’re saying and I think you’re quite correct. However, I don’t think USA has accounted for the fact that in the event of WWIII, Russia and China will take the fight to the US mainland and then the yanks get the shock of a lifetime. They’ll soon learn that two bloody great oceans will no longer protect the from world war!.
