EU foreign ministers hold emergency meeting on Ukraine
Ministers from all over the EU will be meeting to discuss the volatile situation between Ukraine and Russia
Protests in Kiev and Crimea have triggered unrest in Ukraine, a situation exacerbated by Russia's military response
Minister of Foreign Affairs George Vella will be attending an urgent meeting of the European Ministers of Foreign Affairs in Brussels today to discuss the evolving situation in Ukraine.
The meeting is particularly important in light of Russia’s decision to send troops to the Crimean republic.
The EU hopes to discuss the best way to preserve negotiations with Russia after temporary Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk personally blamed Russian president Vladmir Putin for bringing the two countries to the brink of war.
The United Nations will be holding its own negotiations when Secretary Genral Ban Ki Moon meets with Russian Foreign Affairs minster Sergei Lavrov in Geneva.

Lets hope George Vella is not on vacation -as this will compel him to send an emissary as he did before when Foreign Ministers convened emergency meetings -lest we forget!

Britain, France are the culprits in all this mess. They have maneuvered and supported Regime Change in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, and now Syria. NATO has attacked Kosovo and Serbia in a clear infringement of Serbia's Sovereignty. Britain and France have attacked Libya in a clear infringement of Libya's Sovereignty and with the excuse of protecting the airspace over Libya as approved by the UN they lambasted the Libyan forces without provocation and provoked a regime change. Now they are the pot who are calling the kettle black because Russia has now just done the same. The EU foreign ministers have co-signed the agreement with Janucovich just one day before and provoked a regime change which is illegal. So the EU and NATO must now bear the consequences of their actions and they cannot blame Russia for what they themselves have done in Serbia and Libya. They betrayed the UN resolution on Libya and effected a regime change which has caused the destabilization not only of Libya, but also the whole Maghreb region, Egypt and Syria not to mention the fall out effects on Lebanon. On the other hand they support Turkey which has turned into a full dictatorship against its people, against the Police and against the Judiciary. Why? because it is in their interest to do so, despite the fact that it is absolutely wrong.
