2014 "End of Year" report and a look into what 2015 (WW3?) might bring - by Saker
Introduction:
By any measure 2014 has been a truly historic year which saw huge, I would say, even tectonic developments. This year ends in very high instability, and the future looks hard to guess. I don't think that anybody can confidently predict what might happen next year. So what I propose to do today is something far more modest. I want to look into some of the key events of 2014 and think of them as vectors with a specific direction and magnitude. I want to look in which direction a number of key actors (countries) "moved" this year and with what degree of intensity. Then I want to see whether it is likely that they will change course or determination. Then adding up all the "vectors" of these key actors (countries) I want to make a calculation and see what resulting vector we will obtain for the next year. Considering the large number of "unknown unknowns" (to quote Rumsfeld) this exercise will not result in any kind of real prediction, but my hope is that it will prove a useful analytical reference.

QnA: The EU and the Ukraine stand to lose the most from the current US policies against Russia.
QUESTION:
Ukraine is becoming an American/NATO platform with no viable economy, a thoroughly corrupt junta-criminal government. It has lost most characteristics of a state. We know its economy is no longer functioning. It is on economic life-support.
Q: What in history does this colonization most remind you and what does it present as a permanent platform for the projection of US hegemony right next to Russia?
In the context of US cruise missiles into Poland and 100 US tanks into Latvia, also right on the Russian border, how do you interpret these developments?

Expert: NATO Enforcing US Financial, Commercial Power Globally - Adeyinka Makinde
“NATO is the enforcer of American financial and commercial power” globally, which is the primary reason for the bloc’s expansion, Adeyinka Makinde, a London-based legal lecturer specializing in intelligence and security matters, told Radio VR.
That explains why the US is so eager to co-opt Ukraine, the expert said, warning that Kiev’s fate will be grim. Contrary to what the current Ukrainian authorities think, once the United Stated gets into Ukraine, through NATO or the EU, the country “is going to be plundered and looted”, Makinde stated. As the EU financial package shows,

Ukraine’s Prime Minister Calls on US, EU to Freeze Russian Assets

US, EU 'pyromaniacs' surprised at fire they started in Ukraine – expert
The United States and European Union should have anticipated the consequences of their dubious decision to throw support behind the Ukrainian regime change, a French geopolitical analyst has told Russian media.
"What we are witnessing now is the easily predictable aftermath of the US and EU’s irresponsible decision to back the overthrow of a legally-elected Ukrainian president at the time when Russia was busy with the Sochi Olympic Games," Emerique Chopard said in an interview with Interfax.

Herman Van Rompuy
The European Council President, Herman Van Rompuy, has said in a live interview with the RTBF TV and Radio Company that recent statements by the US Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs, Victoria Nuland, about the European Union are unacceptable.

The EC President pointed out that the European Union
has been pursuing the correct policy on Ukraine. “I don’t think our US
colleagues should interfere in the EU policy”, he said.

The European Union should stop

on statements by some EU officials about sanctions against Ukraine.
Earlier Lithuanian Foreign Minister Linas Linkjavicus tweeted:
"Unrolling brutal scenario in Euromaidan calls for united reaction from EU. Calls for dialogue ineffective, time for targeted sanctions," Linkjavicus posted on his Twitter account.

EU wants Russian energy but rejects Moscow integration efforts in Eurasia.
It looks like the Europeans have been seriously offended with Moscow’s assistance to Ukraine, which had frozen the signing of the agreement on the associated membership in the EU and had made a choice in favour of developing relations with its Eastern neighbor. The upcoming 32th Russia-EU summit in Brussels on January 28 will be held in a truncated format and without a traditional dinner. Diplomats explain this by the need to concentrate on the most important things and as soon as possible.
Not
two days, but only two hours are allocated now for the partners to
discuss the key issues of interactions between Russia and the European
Union. Moscow and Brussels have agreed that consideration of the details
of numerous joint projects could wait, and they needed to focus on the
issues of strategic partnership.
The
matter will, of course, concern the economy and more specifically –
energy, trade, international obligations and neighborly policy. It is
unlikely that the President of Russia and his European colleagues will
be able to avoid a conversation about the situation in Ukraine in the
light of the last months’ events. The matter is that the European Union
categorically rejects Moscow’s integration efforts in the Eurasian
region, expert of the Institute of Europe Vladislav Belov says.
