More round the bush admissions from the russian administration that they lack the resources, innovation and skill to defend Russian interests. Another step in kicking the can onto the oligarchs after the debt wipe for a sign up bonus.
 
Crimea decides war?


And this is how one of the biggest Russian bloggers—that piece of scum known as "Fighterbomber"—views the catastrophic situation facing the Russians in Crimea:

"To summarize, here is a rundown of the explanations provided by the briefing group regarding the causes of the fuel shortage in Crimea:
-Transporting fuel across the bridge by rail is permitted only in exceptional circumstances—specifically, in the aftermath of a terrorist attack.
Furthermore, the owners of railway tank cars are not particularly keen on making them available, as no one is willing to insure them.
- There used to be three railway ferries; all have since been destroyed. A new one is expected sometime in September. Moreover, there is a shortage of sailors to crew these ferries.
- The wait time for car ferries currently stands at up to five days.
- There is simply no one willing to drive fuel tankers into the 'new territories.' These are civilian drivers, after all, and they won't do it—not even for 100 rubles per trip. Not even for 200 rubles.- On the peninsula itself, there are hardly any private individuals willing to store fuel on their premises, given that everything is subject to repeated attacks.
- Insurance companies are refusing to provide coverage."
