Yes you read it right, the right wings nightmare is happening in the Ukraine. Obama's sanctions are working and Russia is backing down. The sanctions along with the rapidly falling price of oil are threatening financial collapse in Russia.
Russia: 17,000 troops to leave from near Ukraine - CNN.comMoscow (CNN) -- Russian President Vladimir Putin has ordered 17,600 troops near the Ukrainian border to return to their bases, state-run media reported.
The reason? The Russian troops' training exercises in the southern Rostov region have ended, according to the RIA Novosti news agency.
But many did not believe such exercises were taking place. The troop buildup near the Ukrainian border has been widely interpreted as a threat to invade eastern Ukraine.
