New Russian Deception Attempts

And now for something completely different.

An official within the Kremlin released three points which the Russia plans to play with in 2015.  I read these and immediately rolled my eyes, because I immediately recognized these as a deception, generating interest away from the russian main interests.

Without further ado, here they are, translated by Bing (embedded in Facebook):

Important Russian foreign policy objectives in the European sector in 2015
1. Creation of conditions for the release of the German Democratic Republic from the British-American occupation. Conclusion 150,000 British-American occupation forces from the territory of Germany.
2. Support Greece, after its exit from the EU and NATO. Adoption of Greece in the Eurasian Union.
3. Creating conditions for a just solution to the question Memel Territory (Klaipeda and its surroundings).

The first, the release of the German Democratic Republic (GDR), is Russia’s latest deception tactic.  Since nobody in the former GDR had a “referendum” to rejoin West Germany and form Germany, the Russia is declaring the reunification illegal. Somehow they think the annexation of Crimea is ‘more legal’ than the reunification of Germany.  Pardon me, I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.

Second, the Grexitas or the exit of Greece from the EU, is a significant rally cry for the division of the EU in the eyes of the Russia.  Anything that divides enemies or potential enemies is, in the eyes of the Russia, good.  Don’t forget that also includes China, put that in your pot and stir it for a minute.

The last, Memel Territory, is yet another attempt to dredge up and use an obscure issue, almost 100 years old, to which territory was independent as a result of the Treaty of Versailles, and in 1924 just taken over by Lithuania.

I swear, someone in the Kremlin is drinking vodka. Scratch that, they all drink vodka.  How about way, way, too much vodka.  Perhaps that’s normal, as well, but the issue is whoever wrote these three points should be ignored as incompetent.

You know who…
