Atlantis: everyone knows the name and almost everyone knows that the name refers to a mythical, sunken island continent in the Atlantic Ocean, according to a story told by the Greek philosopher Plato sometime during the 4th century BCE.

Whether or not Atlantis existed has been a matter of conjecture for nearly four hundred years, ever since Francis Bacon published his novel The New Atlantis in 1626. Atlantis is a controversy that continues to this day.

For some folks, Atlantis existed just as Plato explained, but for others the idea alone runs across the grain of prevailing scholarship and archaeological investigation. For those who are sure Atlantis did exist, it is a belief.

It's not always where you are in life, but who you have by your side that matters.

“How do I know if I'm in the right relationship or not?”

This is one of the most common questions our coaching clients ask us. And after Angel and I listen to the specifics of their situation, we often toss a question back at them to further clarify their thoughts and expectations. For instance:

“What do you think a 'right relationship' should provide for the people in it?”

Oh, the joy and heartbreak of being here in Colorado.

It is somewhat ironic that the Feds would send me here, to the only state that has made sales of marijuana completely legal, not only for its own citizens but also those just passing through.

I am serving a 10-year mandatory minimum sentence for growing marijuana at low or no cost to whoever needed it in Northern California. I grew 30,000 plants out in the open to make sure anyone who needed medical marijuana got it, regardless of whether they could afford it.

The illegal immigrant situation currently taking place at our nation's borders is rapidly spiraling out of control, according to reports.

Border Patrol agents left and right are falling ill with diseases that haven't been seen in the U.S. for decades, and the Vice President of the National Border Patrol Union (NBPU) says all of America is now at risk.

During a recent interview on Fox News' America's Newsroom program, union VP Chris Cabrera explained that the Border Patrol simply cannot keep up with the influx of illegal immigrants pouring across the U.S. border.

Editor's Note: As Stratfor readies to look forward in coming days at the implications for Russia -- and its leader Vladimir Putin -- in the downing July 17 of a Malaysian jetliner, we also invite readers to take stock with us of past forecasts of Russia’s geopolitical evolution in the context of global events. Stratfor Chairman George Friedman will examine the likelihood of Putin’s undoing in the next issue of the Geopolitical Weekly, to publish July 22. Accordingly, we look back here at 1998, when we predicted the unfolding Kosovo crisis would be the undoing of late Russian President Boris Yeltsin. We share our assessment from 2000, when we noted that newly elected President Putin was rapidly consolidating absolute power. In 2005, Stratfor reassessed Putin's situation after his first presidential term and laid out how his leadership would begin to reverse the tide of concessions and reassert Russia’s role in line with historical cycles -- including the forging of strategic relationships with countries such as Germany. In 2008, we looked at ways that Russia would capitalize on American weaknesses, including the fatigue of wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. In 2011, we foresaw the next stage, as Russia moved to solidify its sphere of influence while still able. In this forecast, we saw the events setting the stage for today’s crisis in Ukraine. Now, we foresee more historical change. We offer this chronology of forecasts in advance of our next report on Russia’s future.
 
A Chronology of Russia From Yeltsin's Fall Through Putin's Rise

Kosovo Crisis Sets Template for New Russian Politics
During the Kosovo crisis, as Russian politicians rallied to challenge NATO intervention in Serbia and found a new source of unity, then-Russian President Boris Yeltsin found himself isolated.

Oct. 15, 1998: One voice that has been relatively weak has been that of embattled Russian President Boris Yeltsin. Though he declared his firm opposition to NATO strikes on October 9, Russia's nationalists and communists have claimed that weak Yeltsin leadership allowed the U.S. and the West to assert hegemony. Yeltsin is even losing control of national policy regarding Kosovo. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Yakushkin was forced to rebut Defense Ministry statements on the issue, claiming only Yeltsin and the Foreign Ministry could make official policy. Kosovo may be Yeltsin's undoing, as it has united and revitalized his opponents.

Rebellen sollen Flugschreiber haben: Die prorussischen Separatisten behaupten, den Flugschreiber der abgeschossenen Maschine MH17 nach Donezk gebracht zu haben. Sie wollen ihn der Internationalen Zivilluftfahrtorganisation übergeben. Die Ermittlungen vor Ort werden jedoch weiter behindert, stattdessen soll es sogar Plünderungen gegeben haben. Außenpolitiker von CDU und SPD geben Russlands Präsident Putin eine Mitschuld und fordern seine Hilfe zur Aufklärung. Kanzlerin Merkel, Francois Hollande, David Cameron und US-Außenminister John Kerry drohten Moskau mit schärferen Sanktionen.

Israelische Gaza-Offensive kostet über 100 Tote: Mindestens 87 Palästinenser und 13 Soldaten der israelischen Brigade Golani sind bei den Gefechten ums Leben gekommen.

Die palästinensische Politikerin Hanan Aschrawi nannte den Angriff "Staatsterrorismus", Nabil Elaraby, der Generalsekretär der Arabischen Liga, sprach von Kriegsverbrechen.

CDU-Außenexperte Wellmann fordert schärfere Sanktionen gegen Putin: Es führe kein Weg an schmerzhaften Wirtschaftssanktionen vorbei, weil Putin sich nicht anders beeindrucken lasse. "Je später man Putin stoppt, umso teurer wird es", so Karl-Georg Wellmann. Der Präsident sei direkt verantwortlich für den Abschuss. Die Indizien für einen Abschuss durch russische Separatisten seien erdrückend.

Ex-Bundespräsident Wulff will stärkere Kontrolle der Medien: Die Medien hätten bei der Affäre ein Zerrbild seines Charakters gezeichnet und eine Art Meinungskartell gebildet. Er sei Medienchefs zu unbequem geworden wegen seinen Äußerungen zum Islam und seiner Kritik an Banken und Kirche - das wären die wahren Gründe für die Kritik an ihm. Der Presserat müsse seine Regeln überarbeiten und Auswüchse der Branche strenger ahnden.

Bayerns Innenminister Herrmann plädiert für Maut-Ausnahmen in Grenzregionen: Der bayerische Innenminister Joachim Herrmann will, dass alle Landkreise entlang der bayerischen Grenzen von der Mautregelung ausgenommen werden, um den kleinen Grenzverkehr nicht zu beeinträchtigen. Das Geschäft mit ausländischen Grenzbewohnern soll so geschützt werden. Derartige Sonderregelungen seien üblich in der EU.

Immer mehr treten aus katholischer Kirche aus: 178 805 Katholiken sind 2013 aus der Kirche ausgetreten – das sind 80 000 mehr als im Vorjahr, so die Statistik der Deutschen Bischofskonferenz.

Scores of Palestinians and Israeli soldiers have been killed on Sunday as hostilities continue in the Gaza strip. Both sides earlier agreed to a brief ceasefire to allow medics to reach those wounded by Israeli shells.
At least 87 Palestinians were killed on Sunday, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry, as the Israeli Defense Forces shelled the Shejaia district in the north east of Gaza. The casualties are the heaviest since Israel launched its offensive on the Palestinian territory on July 8.
Harry Fear, an RT contributor who is in Gaza summed up the scene this afternoon. “For approximately one hour this afternoon, Israel held fire on the Shejaia neighborhood in east Gaza. Just over the last few minutes, Israel has continued to fire on this neighborhood, which has been heavily pounded this morning and last night,” he said.
Both Hamas and Israel agreeded to a brief ceasefire earlier in the day, which was broken after just an hour after shots were fired in Gaza.
“The agreement to implement a ceasefire was ended because of Hamas who started shooting at our soldiers. We had to answer back,” said an Israeli army source.
Hamas is yet to comment on Israeli allegations that it had breached the ceasefire.
The death toll was condemned by the Arab League who described Israeli attacks on Gaza on Sunday as a “war crime” against Palestinian civilians.
Over 400 Palestinians have been killed in Israel’s operation Protective Edge, the Palestinian Ministry of Health said on Sunday. 13 Israeli soldiers were killed on Saturday night and early Sunday in several incidents across the Gaza strip, bringing the total number of fatilites in less than two days, according to Haaretz.
During the ceasefire, local Gaza rescue services managed to evacuate 50 Palestinian bodies from the Shejaia neighborhood in the east of Gaza City. The Gaza Health Ministry says the dead included 17 children and 14 women and hundreds of wounded were being treated. The Rafah crossing has been opened, but only for use for humanitarian emergencies.
The ceasefire, requested by the International Committee of the Red Cross, was due to last from 1:30pm to 3:30pm (10:30-12:30 GMT) in the Shejaia district.
According to Haaretz, the Israeli Defense Forces also announced they will set up a field hospital near the Erez Crossing at the northern end of the Gaza strip, to treat wounded Palestinians.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Sunday that Israel will take “whatever action is necessary” to halt Hamas cross-border rocket attacks from Gaza and restore calm but insisted his forces were doing their utmost to avoid civilian casualties there.
“We try to target military targets and unfortunately there are civilian casualties which we regret and we don’t seek,” Netanyahu told CNN shortly after an Israeli attack on a Gaza neighborhood killed at least 89 Palestinians.
He accused Hamas of deliberately targeting Israeli civilians and of using Gaza residents as “human shields.” Asked how long it would take Israel to complete an operation it says is intended to destroy Hamas weapons tunnels, Netanyahu said it was being done “fairly quickly,” but gave no time frame.
Qatar ready to host truce talks
Doha has announced it will host a meeting between Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on Sunday, which will look to try and push for an end to fighting in the Gaza strip, according to a senior source from the country.
The session is due to take place in Doha and will be chaired by the Gulf state’s emir, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani, who has been acting as a “channel of communication” between the Islamist Hamas group and the international community, said the source.
“Qatar has presented Hamas’ demands to the international community. The list has been presented to France and to the UN. The talks tomorrow will be to further negotiate these conditions.”
Hamas, which controls the Gaza Strip, has rejected Egyptian efforts to end the fighting, saying any deal must include an end to a blockade of the coastal area and a recommitment to a ceasefire reached in an eight-day war there in 2012.
The conditions include the release of prisoners re-arrested since a 2011 exchange deal with Israel, the opening of Gaza-Israel border crossings and an end to an Israeli blockade on the Gaza seaport, a Hamas source in Doha said.
“In general, Israel must end all forms of aggression and attacks, end the blockade of Gaza and remove the actions that resulted from its military offensive in the West Bank after June 12,” Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri told Reuters in the Palestinian Territories.
Egypt said on Saturday it had no plans to revise its ceasefire proposal, which Hamas has already rejected. And the Hamas source in Doha said the group has no plans to change its conditions for a ceasefire.
“We want the rights of our people. Palestinians on the ground are supporting us and we will get them back their rights,” said the source.
An IDF spokesman insisted to RT that Israel does not target civilians.
“We do not target in any way or form civilians, we target Hamas terrorists. The idea of the operation is ongoing in order to secure safety and security for the state of Israel. Hamas decided to have an onslaught against the state of Israel and indeed even when we held our stations yesterday for six hours they continued to bombard Israel indiscriminately and we were left basically with no alternative,” he said.

The UK will tighten sanctions against Russia if Moscow does not help in investigating a Malaysian airliner crash in Ukraine, British Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond said.
On July 17, Malaysian Airline flight MH17, which was travelling to Kuala Lumpur from Amsterdam, crashed, killing all 298 people on board. There is speculation that the Boeing 777 was shot down by a surface-to-air missile while flying 33,000 feet over Donetsk in eastern Ukraine.
Emergency workers say they have found 196 bodies at the crash site. Ten Britons were among those killed in the incident.
In an interview with the state-run BBC on Sunday, Hammond said Britain would seek to persuade the European Union “to go further in terms of sanctions” unless Moscow’s position on the Malaysian Airlines crash changes.
The British secretary also urged Moscow to put pressure on pro-Russia forces in east Ukraine to allow more access to the crash site, adding that Russia had allegedly done nothing to facilitate the investigation.
“What we need is full Russian cooperation… they [Russian authorities] must use their influence to allow international access to the site to secure the evidence and secure respect for the bodies and the possessions of the victims,” Hammond said.
His comments echoed British Prime Minister David Cameron who said Moscow should be held accountable if it is confirmed that the Malaysian flight MH17 was shot down by a surface-to-air missile fired from a position controlled by pro-Russians in east Ukraine.
Ukraine and its Western allies have laid the blame on pro-Russians in the east of the country, who have denied any involvement. Kiev also pointed the blaming finger at Moscow for helping pro-Russia forces destroy evidence at the crash site.
The EU and the US have imposed several rounds of sanctions on Russia over the crisis in Ukraine in recent months.
Moscow, however, has stressed that the sanctions will not change its stance on Ukraine.

As the world heard about the downing of MH17 in Ukraine on July 17, Bloomberg Businesswek reported hackers with an “intelligence agency of another country” had placed malware on the American stock exchange NASDAQ.
“Elite Russian hackers had breached the stock exchange and inserted a digital bomb,” the NSA had concluded after an investigation, writes Michael Riley.
“The best case was that the hackers had packed their malware with a destruction module in case they were detected and needed to create havoc in Nasdaq computer banks to throw off their pursuers. The worst case was that creating havoc was their intention. President Obama was briefed on the findings.”
According to U.S. investigators the Russians were not attempting to destroy the NASDAQ but rather clone it, “either to incorporate its technology directly into their exchange or as a model to learn from” and had “dispatched an elite team of cyberspies to get it.”
Cyber espionage is nothing new. The NSA specializes in it. In response to NSA spying and cyber mischief Germany is now considering using typerwriters to foil espionage attempts. Earlier this Germany decided to expel the CIA station chief in Berlin in response to espionage.
Despite the fact states spying on and stealing from each other is routine – Israel for instance routinely steals U.S. secrets under the cover of trade missions and joint defense technology contracts – the Bloomberg story singles out Russia at precisely the moment it is accused of engaging in a terrorist shoot down of a civilian passenger airliner.

That Western media frequently and blatantly distort events and disquote officials with a view to manipulating public minds is no news; however, one “news agency”, the UK-based Reuters, has in recent times been repeatedly and unabashedly breaking new grounds in this regard.
Just recently, Reuters sought to portray as mere allegation a United Nations report on a range of violations committed by the Takfiri ISIL terrorists against civilians in Iraq.
A UN report, compiled by the UN Assistance Mission for Iraq (UNAMI) and the UN human rights office (OHCHR), said on July 18 that ISIL terrorists and its allies are carrying out “large-scale killings, injuries and destruction and damage of livelihoods and property.”
“ISIL and associated armed groups have carried out many of these attacks in a systematic manner heedless of the impact on civilians, or have systematically targeted civilians and civilian infrastructure with the intention of killing and wounding as many civilians as possible,” the report stated.
The report also said that children have been disproportionately affected by the conflict.
UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay said, “The deliberate or indiscriminate targeting of civilians, the killing of civilians, the use of civilians as shields, the hindering of access for civilians to humanitarian assistance may amount to war crimes or crimes against humanity.”
However, in covering the UN report, Reuters threw away any semblance of impartiality on the ISIL terrorists’ crimes.
In its news article, Reuters claimed that the United Nations has “accused” the ISIL of war crimes and wrote: “U.N. accuses Islamic State of executions, rape, child abuse in Iraq” while the report by the UN vehemently slams the barbarities of the ISIL terrorists, stating that their criminality amounts up to war crimes.
Meanwhile, Reuters used the word “fighters” for these terrorists.
Further to that, the news agency had previously breached the principle of impartiality on Iran by publishing biased and manipulated articles on young Iranian women training in the Japanese martial arts, Ninjutsu.
On February 18, 2012, Reuters showed a number of Iranian girls practicing martial arts in a city near Tehran, claiming Iran was training more than 3,000 female ninjas to kill any possible foreign invaders.
The report claimed that the athletes are undercover assassins in the service of the Islamic Republic.
In September, 2012, a court in Tehran found London-based Reuters news agency guilty over the report.

Items presumed to be the data recorders from the crashed Malaysian plane have been found and delivered to Donetsk, eastern Ukraine, according to the leader of the self-proclaimed People’s Republic of Donetsk.
“Aircraft parts looking like black boxes were found at the site of the plane crash. They are currently in Donetsk, in the People’s Republic’s (DPR) government headquarters, under my personal control,” Aleksandr Boroday, the republic’s prime minister, told reporters.
The self-defense forces are ready to hand the data recorders over to international monitors “in case they arrive,” he said.
Boroday said that the found items “cannot be given” to Kiev representatives since in that case they could possibly damage them to “falsify the results [of the recordings].”
Another official for the DPR, Sergey Kavtaradze, said that what he thought were the flight recorders looked undamaged on the outside. He added that since there are no aviation experts in the DPR, they cannot be absolutely sure that the found items are the black boxes. The items will be passed to the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) which will lead the investigation into the crash of flight MH17.
Ukrainian Deputy Prime Minister Vladimir Groysman said that Kiev had suspected that the boxes were in rebels’ hands for several days, Reuters cited.
A group of international experts has yet to arrive at the site of the tragedy. They are expected to be in the region on Sunday evening, according to DPR’s Deputy Prime Minister Andrey Purgin.
“A huge crowd of experts are sitting in Kiev for some reason and. They will probably come here only on Sunday,” Purgin told Russian News Service on Saturday.
Earlier, the DPR said it would guarantee the safety of specialists investigating the plane crash in the area if Kiev agrees to a ceasefire.
Meanwhile, monitors from the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, OSCE, observed Sunday a train with bodies of the plane MH17 crash victims which are to be sent to Donetsk.
Refrigerated train cars were kept on a railway station in the town of Torez, not far from the crash site.
So far, 223 bodies of passengers killed in the Boeing 777 crash on July 17 have been recovered. The Malaysia Airlines plane was en route from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur with 298 people on board, including 15 crew members. The search operation in the conflict-torn east Ukrainian region is continuing.

Zentralrat der Juden kritisiert Antisemitismus auf Demos: Auf den pro-palästinensischen Demos gebe es eine "Explosion an bösem und gewaltbereitem Judenhass, die uns alle schockiert und bestürzt", sagte Zentralratspräsident Dieter Graumann. Derweil hält trotz internationaler Bemühungen um eine Waffenruhe die Gewalt im Nahen Osten an. US-Außenminister John Kerry und UNO-Generalsekretär Ban Ki Moon trafen zu Gesprächen in Kairo ein.

UN-Resolution soll Flugzeug-Abschuss aufklären helfen: Die Rebellen haben die Flugschreiber des abgeschossenen Passagierflugzeugs malaysischen Experten übergeben. Der Zug mit den Opfern fährt nach Charkow, dort sollen internationalen Experten die rund 280 Leichen untersuchen. Der UN-Sicherheitsrat fordert alle Akteure zur Kooperation auf, außerdem freien Zugang zum Absturzort und eine Feuerpause. Die Verantwortlichen sollen zur Rechenschaft gezogen werden. Unterdessen verweigern einige südamerikanische Fußballstars von Schachtjor Donezk und Metalist Charkow die Rückkehr in die Ukraine.

Regierung erhöht Bafög ab 2016 um 7 Prozent: Außerdem sollen mit der Reform Zuverdienst- und Vermögensfreibeträge sowie Zuschüsse für Kinder und Wohnung steigen. Auch der Elternfreibetrag wird um 7 Prozent angehoben, so sollen künftig rund 110.000 Schüler und Studenten zusätzlich Bafög erhalten. Die Finanzierung des Bafögs liegt dann allein beim Bund. Die Reform soll den Empfängern rund eine halbe Milliarde Euro bringen.

OECD verschärft Kampf gegen Steuerbetrüger: Eine OECD-Initative will das Bankgeheimnis für Ausländer abschaffen, um so Steuerbetrug zu erschweren. Ausländische Geldhäuser sollen Kontodaten ab 2017 automatisch an Heimatländer der Kunden übermitteln. 67 Länder machen mit, darunter Steueroasen wie die Britischen Jungferninseln und die Schweiz.

IWF warnt vor Arbeitslosigkeit durch Mindestlohn: Vor allem im Osten und unter Frauen könnte der Mindestlohn die Lage signifikant verschärfen. Die Maßnahmen werden bis zu 20 Prozent der Arbeiter betreffen, heißt es in einem Bericht. 60.000 bis 850.000 Arbeitsplätze könnten laut Studien verlorengehen. Besonders wichtig sei die Anpassung des Mindestlohns in den kommenden Jahren.

Linke streitet um Israel-Demos: NRW-Chefin Özlem Demirel und Hessen-Chef Ralf Michalowsky unterstützen Demonstrationen gegen den israelischen Militäreinsatz im Gaza. Dabei kam es allerdings auch zu gewalttätigen Zusammenstößen und antisemitischen Hassparolen. Bundesgeschäftsführer Matthias Höhn und Gregor Gysi sowie weitere Landeschefs distanzieren sich von den Demos. Gysi erklärte, Antizionismus könne für Die Linke keine vertretbare Position sein.

Bayerische Opposition beklagt Drohung gegen die Presse: Ulrike Gote von den Grünen wirft Christine Haderthauer, Leiterin der Staatskanzlei, und ihrem Mann Hubert "einen direkten Angriff auf die Medien" vor. Im Auftrag der beiden hatte eine Anwaltskanzlei verschiedenen Medien verboten, über eine Sitzung zu berichten, in der Christine Haderthauers Rolle in der Firma "Sapor Modelltechnik" geklärt werden sollte. Die Firma produziert Modell-Oldtimer in Gefängnissen.

Kleinere Länder fordern Schnitt bei Altschulden: Bei der Verhandlung über den Länderfinanzausgleich und die Finanzbeziehungen zwischen Bund und Länder plädieren Bremen und das Saarland für eine Auflösung der Altschulden. Alle Länder sollten ab 2020, wenn die Schuldenbremse vollständig greift, annähernd gleiche Startvoraussetzungen haben. Beide Länder schlugen vor, Einnahmen aus dem Soli dafür zu nutzen. Bayern steht dem Vorschlag kritisch gegenüber.

Rentner verlieren durch Pflegereform: Die Rentenerhöhung 2015 wird durch die erste Stufe der geplanten Pflegereform deutlich geschmälert, so die Berechnungen von Frank Hechtner, Professor für Steuerwirkungslehre. Je nach Höhe der Rente verlieren die Senioren bis zu 40 Prozent des zusätzlichen Geldes wieder. Denn anders als Arbeitnehmer müssen Rentner den geplanten Anstieg der Pflegebeiträge um 0,3 Punkte auf 2,35 Prozent vom Bruttoeinkommen ganz alleine zahlen. Die Rentenversicherung zahlt nicht für die Pflege, sondern nur für die Krankenversicherung.

Deutsche sollen Armut überschätzen: Die Deutschen gehen davon aus, dass rund ein Viertel zu der untersten Einkommensschicht gehört - tatsächlich sind es aber nur rund 16 Prozent, so eine internationale Vergleichsstudie des Instituts der deutschen Wirtschaft. Zur Mittelschicht gehören etwa ein Drittel, glauben die Befragten. Tatsächlich soll es aber die Hälfte der Deutschen sein. In den USA ist das Bild genau andersrum: Dort wird die Kluft zwischen Arm und Reich deutlich unterschätzt.

Strategie des israelischen Militärs: Die israelische Armee greift bei der Gaza-Offensive auf die so genannte "Hannibal-Direktive" zurück. Sie besagt, dass eher der Tod eines Soldaten in Kauf genommen werden soll statt seiner Entführung. So soll verhindert werden, dass die Hamas die Gefangenen als Druckmittel nutzt, wie etwa 2006: Damals musste Israel im Tausch gegen den fünf Jahre gefangen gehaltenen Gilad Schalit 1027 palästinensische Häftlinge frei lassen, darunter mehrfache Mörder.

Tantra ist mehr Sex als Selbsterfahrung: Der Verwaltungsgerichtshof Baden-Württemberg stuft Tantra-Massagen als sexuelles Vergnügen ein - damit sind sie steuerpflichtig. Eine Inhaberin eines Tantra-Studios wollte durchdrücken, dass bei der Massage das ganzheitliche Wohlbefinden und eine ganzheitliche Selbsterfahrung im Vordergrund steht. Die Gerichte sehen eher "eine Zerstreuung und Entspannung mit erotischem Bezug".

Can Putin Survive?

By George Friedman

There is a general view that Vladimir Putin governs the Russian Federation as a dictator, that he has defeated and intimidated his opponents and that he has marshaled a powerful threat to surrounding countries. This is a reasonable view, but perhaps it should be re-evaluated in the context of recent events.

Ukraine and the Bid to Reverse Russia's Decline
Ukraine is, of course, the place to start. The country is vital to Russia as a buffer against the West and as a route for delivering energy to Europe, which is the foundation of the Russian economy. On Jan. 1, 2014, Ukraine's president was Viktor Yanukovich, generally regarded as favorably inclined to Russia. Given the complexity of Ukrainian society and politics, it would be unreasonable to say Ukraine under him was merely a Russian puppet. But it is fair to say that under Yanukovich and his supporters, fundamental Russian interests in Ukraine were secure.

This was extremely important to Putin.
