Kerry just delivered final warning to Russia

US Secretary of State John Kerry

US Secretary of State John Kerry has issued a stern and final warning to Russia to help de-escalate the crisis in Ukraine or face more sanctions.

“The window to change course is closing. The world will make sure the costs for Russia will only grow” if Russia refuses to change course, Kerry said late Thursday.

Kerry’s warning came after Ukraine used lethal force against pro-Russia activists in eastern Ukraine on Thursday, reportedly leading to five deaths.

“What is happening in eastern Ukraine is a military operation that is well-planned and organized. If Russia continues in this direction, it will not only be a grave mistake — it will be an expensive mistake,” Kerry said.

The top US diplomat accused the Kremlin of “a full-throated effort to actively sabotage the democratic effort.”

“Russia has put its faith in distraction, deception, and destabilization,” he said, adding, “For seven days Russia has refused to take a single concrete step in the right direction.”

Tensions between Russia and the West heightened after Crimea declared independence from Ukraine and became part of the Russian Federation following a referendum on March 16.

Meanwhile, protests have been a common scene across eastern Ukrainian cities over the past weeks with demonstrators occupying state buildings in several towns and cities.

On April 17, Ukraine’s interim government together with the United States, Russia and the European Union reached an agreement in the Swiss city of Geneva, calling for all sides to ease the ongoing crisis in eastern Ukraine.

Ukraine interim authorities in Kiev said on Friday that army units have begun the second phase of an operation to drive out pro-Russia activists from the eastern cities.

Kerry and the entire US State Department is a very very dangerous unit.

The US needs to take a step back unless they want a full scale conflict with Russia..... This is NOT a tin pot country we are talking about, this is a superstate with backing from China... It will NEVER yield to the US bully boy rhetoric.

A very tricky time is upon us, and as usual the yanks are stoking it.

It is time the UK pulled away from supporting this dumbass regime, because the UK will probably be the first target on the hit list while the US knows they will be the last and have the luxury of pulling back after plenty of damage has been done to its supporters.

Let's just hope if an attack is inevitable... They hit the US directly.

I repeat..... RUSSIA WON'T BACK DOWN... THEY HAVE TOO MUCH PRIDE.

You are forgetting all the other players with very itchy fingers.

North Korea who is itching to attack the South and US has to help

China and Japan and US has to help

Iran, Syria and US has to help

Russia will only make more money out of it by supplying weapons, how exactly is US going to deal with all the players?

To put it mildly, I do not think that Vladamir would be even remotely receptive to Mrs Clinton's "feminine charms"!

No I didn't forget any of those, I was just trying to stay on topic.

The US thinks it has the backing of half of the world and won't see it as spreading themselves too thinly.... But they have another thing coming... If any nation feels threatened by the likes of Russia and China, they will quickly do a U-Turn and leave the US holding the can.

at the moment the US are backing the Ukraine Neo-Nazi fascist regime in Kiev who have vowed to wipe out all Jews and Russians from Ukraine, even the ones born there.... They also back the Syrian rebels and are actively arming Al Qaida who are fighting alongside said rebels.

Like I said.... Even the EU can't force member states to join in an offensive against Russia, they don't have an army or air force yet, and the member states will withdraw their support if they feel threatened.... as usual the US wants to fight a war in someone else's back yard..... well it won't work this time... If they want to do that, then invade Russia directly instead of hiding behind their allies.

I can't believe you are all screaming war war war!

The US, and G7 have stated they will use economic muscle. Not nukes and Russia says it will retaliate accordingly.

The normal Russian people have nothing to fear from their KGB... this is not 1958.

The Russians have a lot more to fear from The Fascists in power in Kiev than they do from their own people.

The US think they are real patriots, yet whenever there is a war that the US are involved with, the people take to the streets to protest against it.

That thing won't happen in China, Russia, North Korea..... these people really are patriotic and will fight to the death for their country... The common people that is.

It is far from being as simple as that.

US has its cheer leading squad and so does Russia.

The problem is Russian cheer leaders are lunatics and with an ok from Russia are capable of any stupidity

[hard124get]

USA has lost all credibility in the world Mr Kerry. We are all saying GO HOME AND MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS !

[Credo]

It shouldn't be difficult. If Poland, the Ukraine and the EU tell the US to go home, I am sure they will.

Russia won't back down? You might want to google Cuba, 'dumbass'.

Actually, that was negotiated between Kennedy and Khrushchev where they agreed (in secret) to both pull back if the US officially recognized Cuba as an independent sovereign state... Which they agreed to. Which actually pissed off their European allies for keeping the negotiations a secret from them.

If anything..... Russia got something out of the US that they had been completely reluctant to give in the past.

You need to get your facts right.

So stick that in yer pipe.

Indeed, the situation started with the US funded an invasion of Cuba at the Bay of Pigs. Russia intervened to defend Cuba, the US backed down on the guarantee that Russia not put nuclear missiles there.

This seems like a similar situation, some 90%+ of Crimea want to be a part of Russia, the US/EU refuse to accept this. Except this time the US is only threatening economic sanctions rather than threatening to wipe out humanity.

[slipperylobster]

Putin is puttin his cards on the table. He knows the US will not interfere with his schemes. Sad days are coming. NATO Allies need to show solidarity. I think it is their ballpark, not ours. Please call when it gets out of control...

Harry, Not making fun of the US, just that Iraq & Afhanistan are still horrifyingly still vivid in the memory. History should have taught us that we mess with Russia at our peril!!

You are missing an important point - in China, Russia and North Korea, to go against whatever the government says will land you in jail, or a work camp, or even more likely - especially in NK, a grave.

That's not patriotism, its terror.
