Ukraine: Russians and Blackwater mercenaries fight each other! The German political scientist and Middle East expert of Michael Lüders says that 500 mercenaries of the private army of Academi, formerly Blackwater, on the part of the Government in Kiev would fight. In addition, the EU loans to Ukraine in dark channels would seep. The German economy, however, lost 40 billion euros last year due to the Russia sanctions.
German political and economic adviser Michael Lüders in an interview with the television channel Phoenix said, that the "Ukrainian Government determined" was "to militarily solve the problems in the East of the country".
But it is to suggest that Kiev "not alone made this decision". Because the Government have so Lüders "does not have the financial means to make a medium or even long-term war in the East of their own country".
500 mercenaries private army Academi, formerly Blackwater, should literally in the Ukraine in its LAII use: [...] It should be among 500 mercenaries which Blackwater organization, which has now renamed itself, but is known is known under this name, the mercenaries that have been sent in the Iraq. About 500 so the number in the Ukraine. We have not just Russians here fighting on the side of the separatists, but also as mercenaries on the part of the Government. This is a dangerous development, a not so good. Because it is quite clear that an escalation is not excluded. And this conflict can get out of control, when the Russian side or if the Ukrainian side of opinion is, she could completely rely on victory. [...]
The political and economic advisers is that the Europeans and the United States in the Ukraine have not same interests: [...] I have the impression that Europeans begin gradually to comprehend that the interests of the United States in the Ukraine are not necessarily same as that of the Europeans. In particular, the intensification of relations with Russia has Yes serious economic consequences. Alone the economic exchange between Germany and Russia as a result of the sanctions has been halved more than during the previous year. That's a sum in the region to 40 billion euros at stake. If you envision, that the Americans have led traditionally only relatively modest trade with Russia, in the order of $8 billion in the year. Then, it is quite clear that Germany - but also other European States-, the narrow trade with Russia above all drive, are massively affected. Now the economy is of course very unhappy about it.[...]
Also, it is unclear what will happen to the loans, which run through the Ukraine,: [...] And finally, yes the Europeans pay a large part of economic aid for the Ukraine. This economic assistance is a bottomless pit but - as it seems -. There are yes no control over what happens to these funds. Definitely not lacking the money, to wage war. While Yes the Government in Kiev for its own population in the East of the country has suspended all payments.[...]
