The confrontation between the U.S. and Russia in Eastern Europe...

       The   issue  between   the   U.S.  and   Russia   Performent   over   the    Ukraine  is   only   the   struggle   of  them  .  It   was  the  consequence   of   the   Ukraine  Parliament  Violation   of   legal  responsibility  of   a  group  of  Law  Makers  with   the   support   of   the   U.S.  and  European   Union  . 
       The  U.S.  repeated   his   Worid  Police   Policy   and   Russia   started  again   the   Cold  War   Era   policy   to   face  each  other  in  Ukraine   which  will   be   led   to  the  real  confrontation  .
      In  Eastern   Europe  ,  the  U.S.  Air  force   made   an  appearance   to   confirm  NATO's   commitment   in   the   European's  Allies  by   increasing   in   Poland ,  Romania  , Boltic  Region   and  Black  Sea  .
    But   the  international  community  would  not   agree   with  the   two  world   powers   to   do   like  this   Strategy   which  will   be  back   fire  to  them  . 
    God   bless  with   them  !

Former US lawmaker Ron Paul says China will soon overtake the United States as the world’s largest economy as officials in Washington are squandering the taxpayer money on “a hyper-interventionist foreign policy.”
“One advantage China has over the US is that the Chinese government does not waste money on a hyper-interventionist foreign policy. The United States government spent approximately $752 billion on the military in fiscal year 2013. In contrast, China spent approximately $188 billion,” the former presidential candidate wrote in a piece published Sunday on the Ron Paul Institute for Peace and Prosperity.
While most economists had previously predicted that China would become the leading global economic power by 2019, data compiled by the world’s leading statistical agencies have recently shown that China would overtake the United States as early as this year.
“News that China is soon to surpass the United States as the largest economy in the world is a stark reminder of how the American people are harmed by the welfare-warfare state, crony capitalism, and fiat currency,” Paul wrote.
Stressing that only “those who run or work for the military-industrial complex” benefit from America’s overblown military spending and bellicose foreign policy, Paul added, “The only way to avoid continuing collapse is to finally reject an interventionist foreign policy, stop bailing out and subsidizing politically powerful industries, and restore a free market in money.”
Paul’s remarks come as a recent Wall Street Journal/NBC News survey showed that Americans are becoming tired of their government’s interventionist policies around the world.
The poll’s findings revealed that nearly half of Americans want Washington to “be less active in world affairs” while only 19 percent call for a more active role.
According to the Wall Street Journal, the findings are indicative of “an anti-interventionist current that sweeps across party lines” in the United States.

WSJ/NBC Poll: Americans Want Less Interventionist Foreign Policy
John Glaser, April 30, 2014
This morning’s Wall Street Journal has the following headline on the front page: “Americans Want to Pull Back From World Stage, Poll Finds.”
Americans in large numbers want the U.S. to reduce its role in world affairs even as a showdown with Russia over Ukraine preoccupies Washington, a Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll finds.
In a marked change from past decades, nearly half of those surveyed want the U.S. to be less active on the global stage, with fewer than one-fifth calling for more active engagement—an anti-interventionist current that sweeps across party lines.
…The poll findings, combined with the results of prior Journal/NBC surveys this year, portray a public weary of foreign entanglements and disenchanted with a U.S. economic system that many believe is stacked against them. The 47% of respondents who called for a less-active role in world affairs marked a larger share than in similar polling in 2001, 1997 and 1995.
You can tell from the way the reporter frames the poll’s findings that she’s unhappy about what she calls “anti-interventionist” sentiment. She is shocked such sentiments can be so popular even as (in her words) Russia defies U.S.-EU sanctions and Ukraine continues to unravel.
But she must have missed the YouGov poll conducted last month finding that only 14 percent of Americans said the U.S. has “any responsibility” to get involved in Ukraine, and only 18 percent think the U.S. “has any responsibility to protect Ukraine if Russia were to invade.”

— Turmoil in eastern Ukraine continued Tuesday, a day after the United States and Europe announced new sanctions against Russia for failing to take steps to de-escalate the crisis in its neighbor to the west. Pro-Russian demonstrators in the Ukrainian city of Luhansk seized government buildings and the local television center, after similar actions in Donetsk and Slovyansk. NATO is boosting defense in member nations bordering Russia to allay their growing concerns about Moscow's territorial ambitions.

Several thousand protesters stormed the regional administration building in Luhansk Tuesday after a group of youths broke windows with metal bars and let the crowd in. The rebels replaced the Ukrainian flag with a Russian one, while riot police stood by.

In the capital, Kyiv, acting president Oleksander Turchynov lashed out at the country's law enforcement for failing to act.

"The overwhelming majority of law enforcement bodies in the east are incapable of fulfilling their duties to defend our citizens. New heads of the Security Service of Ukraine have already been appointed in Donetsk and Luhansk [eastern Ukraine]. The leadership of the special forces "Alpha" has been totally replaced," said Turchynov.

Ukraine and its allies have accused Russia of fueling the crisis in eastern Ukraine to clear the way for another incursion into the region after annexing the Crimean peninsula. NATO member nations bordering Russia have asked the alliance for additional protection.

Deputy Supreme Allied Commander in Europe Adrian Bradshaw visited Latvia Tuesday to discuss measures to strengthen NATO's presence in the Baltic region.

"Our judgment is that the actions that we've taken at the moment are proportional and appropriate to the changed security dynamic that we face.  It gives a very clear indication on NATO commitment to the region, but the things we are doing could not be considered threatening to anybody outside the region," said Bradshaw.

NATO already has increased its air policing and naval presence in the Baltics. Last week, 450 U.S. paratroopers were deployed in Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia, and another 150 in Poland. NATO military exercises are taking place across the region.

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry Tuesday said NATO is sending a clear message to Moscow that its territory is inviolable.  He also called on NATO members to meet their financial obligations.

“We cannot continue to allow allied defense budgets to shrink. Clearly, not all allies are going to meet the NATO benchmark of 2 percent of GDP overnight, or even next year.  But it’s time for allies who are below that benchmark to make credible commitments to increase their spending on defense over the next five years, and if we’re going to move the trend line in a positive direction, this has to be an alliance-wide effort,” said Kerry.

Russia has accused the West of stirring unrest in the region, but some eastern Europeans who still recall Russian invasions say they feel safer with an increased NATO presence. Lithuanian student Ernestas Tuzinas said he wants even more.

"These are only the first steps. NATO should set up a permanent military base in Lithuania," said Tuzinas.

The Baltic states spent five decades under Soviet occupation until 1991 and joined NATO in 2004. Poland joined in 1999 and was among the first eastern European NATO members.
