has has to deal with the Russian government on a dialy basis - did this dealing be profitable?
that it's trying to de-attach the Logansk / Donetsk - wanna Logansk/Donetsk? no problem - offer some billions for gas for Ukraine, make working warranties for gas/oil business to Putins mob + (main and hardest) find possibillity to push out Usa back to home. And you will get it all, may be...By the way, just abstract question - do you want to attach failed state to Finland? If yes so for what?
In Finland we certainly don't feel safe. - buy pumpers and sleep well. If Finland will have enough brain abilities to do not go in disassembly between Us, Ru, Eu so no problems for your country. In good scenario for world, then all business and other kinds of connection between RU and Finland will be reestablished.
@Anhelyna
are from Western Ukraine - Have they ever jumped under screaming "Moscovits on the knives"? Did they be happy during Maidan? Did they accept "Spring Grilled meat from Coloradoes Bugs" in Odessa on 02/05/2014? If they have male relatives from 18 till 45-50 (dont know maximum age barrier for mobilisation) and dont have enough money to escape mobilisation? If yes - so scare and jump, jump and scare.
Conversation between my relatives ( in short retelling):
Sister (East Ua) to Brother (West Ua) during meeting in Moscow: Listen, b?tch. What do you tell to people - everything is ok on East. Yes? So go and live with me in vault under "Grads" attack.
Work of Grad:

And your friends must remember - They are lucky on today, on today only. Actual shocking videos are made on East.

did Russia actually invade - nope. If invaded so rebels would be in Kiev already. But Russia takes part in this bloody perfomance. Mercenaries, pro's from special forces, may be some troops in so-so significant quantities during last days + of course, a lot of volunteers (there are many military pro's through them) - fascists are like a red rag to a bull for RUssians + some material and financial supply. But Russia does nothing more in comparison with other Non-Ukrainian "side" of Ukrainian conflict. All sides are "good" - have made battlefield from Ukraine.
Putins mob had 3 global scenario:
I. leave Ukraine. (Imho in this case, Russia would get serious war conflict with so-so strong army of Russophobic partly nazi country "Ukraine" after 5-10years). But it became impossible due Crimea action.
II. To send army on East of Ua after referrendum of folk. Most safe variant for people and infrastrukture. More over, rebels asked -just give heavy weapons,some supply and nothing more - no troops, no caucasians "volunteers". Nope - i understand why. But hard to accept it for me.
III. Current way of conflict - bloody slow civil war. Its reason why Putin is betrayal for my relatives from E.ua.
+war means presence of a lot of dirty things: maradeurs,thieves, sadists, rapists, maniacs, weapon traders, money-makers (biggest problem).
@Gurneyhalleck1
now with this week's invasion, man, that's pretty tough to argue the pro-Russia side - no invasion. Just "may be some troops in so-so significant quantities during last days" or something else. Its not possible to call it invasion. I have not met any videos, photoes of this event. Juhnta cries and screams about invasion because cant find reasons to explain their fails with anti-terrorist operation except as "hand of RUssia".
About why Putins mob does by this way - no choice for them. Main Usa aim in this situation is to break connections between Ru and Eu. Putin protects. Nothing private, just business.(tm). I dont know anybody who can explain material benefits of attaching Crimea and other parts of failed state "Ukraina".
He didnt plane it, didnt want it, tried to escape it. But his role is to reflex on actions of eventmaker. Putin is demiurg for West and object for mocking in my news feed on regular basis.

Holy Russia - There is Holy Russia: Russian Saints, some lands blessed by blood of Martyrs; about holiness of the rest of our country - i dont know.
@RileyG
