Don't be naive Officially, nobody directly, but you should think about perception and what it means to lose political influence. To put it more bluntly, what it means for your influence in the EU if you are seen as a Russian ally/puppet/supporter

I'm not Polish. Judging by your response it seems I made a mistake trying to debate with you in a sensible way, and that you are no more than a child (or an adult with a child's mind) that has the same level of political and world understanding as an schizophrenic hamster. Therefore, please...

It doesn't matter what you or Russia thinks. It's about the public perception in the EU.

Don't be silly, it's about EU, not USA And Russia is free to take the issue to the international court, where it will lose. It would probably lose even if the French government decided to cancel the deal and keep the money

And why do you think that the USA would consider that a bad thing, in a cynical way? I mean Russian army in E Ukraine. Their biggest problem now is EU not having a coherent policy towards Russia, plus Obama being undecided. An invasion would solve all that. Think about it: E Ukraine isn't...

I agree, for once, with you. But only on the first part. Russia invading Ukraine is a giant trap for Putin and would crush Russia in the long term, while at the same time crush any sanction-opposition in EU. What I don't agree: come May elections and the installment of a legitimate government...

They should cut it now and accept the financial lose, while trying to sell the ships to another country. It's a case of absorbing the lose now or risk paying a much bigger price in the future, France's policy is very nearsighted, for some strange reason..

No it's not. To use an analogy, you don't sell a gun to someone who recently became irrational and aggressive, even if he paid upfront for it. If the sale goes forward France's image will get hit hard - and, God forbid, can you imagine the blow-back if we see them used against Georgia or Ukraine...

@Gabriel92 France should cancel the deal, it send the completely wrong message and harms France's imagine aboard.

Stop it, you're embarrassing yourself. The rapes and crimes of the Red Army are documented, many from Russian sources.

Yes, as Israel is not a NATO country and Turkey is...but considering the status of Israel, the help for Turkey would probably be logistics/info/economical, and mostly from EU. It's all ridicule anyway, the whole scenario. USA/NATO/EU won't allow such a war to begin, not for a (tragic) incident...

The 2 rubles/day propaganda team is in full swing They are fighting right now, as we speak, and if I heard right, Ukrainians were the ones chanting "jump b.itch, jump to Russia" yesterday in Odessa. No NATO to be seen anywhere around..

Hi, are you going to fight the Nazis in Ukraine? I mean, personally? You seem brave over the internet, it would be a shame if you don;t go to help your Russian brothers in Ukraine.

An 17 billion $ loan + more to follow. And it was the Russian speaking people of Odessa who did this, not Kiev.

Sow the wind and reap the whirlwind. Some of them attacked and killed Ukrainians earlier

Then EU will break. Germany might have run the show 1 year ago...not so now, not after Crimea. It's back to USA as the pivot in Europe Don't like it? Tough luck, "old Europe" can go suck on a sock if they can't lead. And I'm neither Slav, nor American or Jew

"Friend" is the wrong word. Pet seems more appropriate.."Schröder, Putin's favorite pet, met with his master.....etc" Not being good for German reputation is a understatement..your last chancellor turns out to be a traitor, and now he rubs on that fact right at the moment when many in EU...

Many don't care, they can be if they want to. I, for one, would also let Russia take Transnistria if we get our population out. Both regions are worthless anyway... the problem lies in Moldova itself, they have real economic troubles.. But yes, to answer your question, probably they would...

Vrei sa-ti zic ceva....iti bati capul absolut de pomana :P

Romanian - I don't see how being obsessed about Israel is worth anything, actually.Like it or not, they have a country now and are there to stay...and you have better thing to worry about, like the economy, for a start. Now, I could understand a Palestinian, because they got shafted in that...
