Ukraine swamped by US military, intelligence advisers - Russian official



Kiev’s political course is orchestrated by the US military and intelligence circles, Russian Security Council Deputy Secretary Yevgeny Lukyanov told the RIA Novosti news agency on Wednesday.

Ukraine’s policy is far from being the country’s own course. It’s been carefully mapped out by Washington’s envoys – intelligence and military officers, he said.
"It’s more than just a matter of US mercenaries. The so-called advisers from Washington have been actively working in Ukraine. I mean intelligence and military specialists."
They devise a "strategic line all of the Ukrainian government’s decisions must strictly abide by", he said.

Centuries-old ties between Russia & Ukraine not to be broken - Russian official



The centuries-old ties between Russia and Ukraine can’t be broken either by Western politicians or by "the anti-popular Kiev regime", Valentina Matviyenko, Chairperson of the Federation Council, upper house of Russian parliament, said on Thursday, May 1.

She believes that the crisis in Ukraine was initiated by the United States and Western countries which "once again decided to organise a ‘colour revolution’. But they miscalculated. The Libyan, Iraqi and Yugoslav scenarios failed in Ukraine".

However in the absence of "sources of information that would give an objective picture of the situation, many people in Ukraine are beginning to believe" Western politicians. "They [Western countries] have simply set the task of antagonising people against Russia", Matviyenko told the "Logic of Power" programme on Radio Russia.
