Whatever he wants by the look of it. Crimea if he wants it, by force or by forcing a referendum, a more Russian friendly government in Kiev post election and continued Russian influence in the Ukraine. And so far that's all without getting blood on his hands. The west are powerless to do anything, they can't even argue that the government is Kiev is legitimate until the elections are held.Originally posted by suityou01 View PostWhat precisely has he won?While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you.

Actually it look sas though he's NOT getting what he wants.
Troops on exercise just over the border, other troops massing at the border? All gone.
Russian government not speaking to Ukraine? They are now - of course Putin had to tell them to do it as it was all their fault, not his...
Russian troops in Crimea? No - those aren't Russian troops, Putin knows nothing about this.
It looks like he's backing down while trying to save face, and at the same time issuing threats to show that he's not scared, he hasn't lost, he can do this any time he wants, he just doesn't want to right now... This follows public blame being laid at his feet over the losses in the markets by Russian newspapers - they've all said it's due to the Ukraine tensions, whereas Putin says it's nothing to do with that - the markets and currency are all suffering due to other competely unrelated issues.Comment
