The United States has a new toy - the Netherlands Premier Rutte and his sanctions
US senators, without even specifying the reason, urge Barack Obama to go for the introduction of new sanctions against individuals and companies of the Russian Federation. British Premier Cameron, an American expert named Paul Craig Roberts called Washington's dog, bustles about how to please his master. Netherlands Prime Minister Mark Rutte, usually insanely busy with the problems of sexual minorities, also states that official Amsterdam will continue to exert sanctions pressure on Russia.
Well, okay, the United States ... Well, Britain ... These "friends of Russia", who have only one desire - to repeat the scenario of the collapse of the USSR for the Russian Federation, we have long been used to. But Holland, where? Moreover, on the eve of the same Mark Rutte said that he appreciated Russia's positive steps "towards the world community" in terms of identifying the causes of the tragedy with MH-17.
Now, you see, Rutte again remembered that the Netherlands should impose sanctions against Russia. Did not a telephone conversation with overseas and British partners on the defender of gay rights that were infringed on their rights acted this way? Or is this Dutch shifter and some kind of, let's say, selfish interest?
It seems that this very Mr. Rutte (Mark Rutte) found a serious reason for a set of political points. A few months ago, even in Europe, not everyone could say, and who is this Mark Rutte in general. If they remembered, they are not good words due to the desire to increase the retirement age in the Netherlands and on paper to resolve the issue of an increasing number of immigrants from overseas colonies (and the Netherlands is one of the countries of the world the presence of colonial territories on other continents, beautifully calling them “self-governing public entities”). On the colonial possessions of the Netherlands a little later.
They remembered Rutte in Europe (often not without irony) also because he was too active in declaring about the protection of the rights of sexual minorities. When Rutte was asked, and if the EU has problems with the rights of homosexuals, the Prime Minister of the Netherlands moved his eyebrows and said that such problems exist in Russia. Then Rutte was reminded that Russia is not an integral part of the European Union, and its laws should hardly worry a Dutch official. But he did not let up and repeated at every step that in Russia he would also protect sexual minorities ...
But over time, Mark Rutte realized that for some homosexuals to get weighty political bonuses will not work, as it will not turn away from the anger of the Dutch crown about the Cabinet’s reforms, and decided to play for the European official, concerned about the actions of Russia as a whole. After the crash with the Malaysian "Boeing 777" in Rutte as if the second wind opened. So that’s what will help me to gain popularity not only among ordinary Dutch, but also politically to reach a full-fledged international level - apparently, the prime minister decided. Now it runs like this - in a bunch of Holland-Australia-Great Britain, which the United States has on a short leash.
By the way, it is worth paying attention to the fact that this particular troika is too actively trying to infiltrate with its stigmas into what is happening in Ukraine, especially in the situation with the crashed passenger airliner. Australia composes a resolution in the UN Security Council, the UK gets access to deciphering the Boeing flight recorders, the Netherlands asks Mr. Rutte for both there and there, stating that Russia should continue to put pressure on Russia no matter what ... that these American dolls were just waiting for a solid excuse to do everything to distract their fellow citizens from domestic politics and economics, solving the problem of reducing Russia's competitiveness in favor of the United States.
A special piquancy in the situation with the desire of the Netherlands to achieve approval of its foreign policy by the United States adds that the Netherlands is the second economy in terms of turnover with the Russian Federation. Following the results of 2013, these volumes are fixed at 82 billions of dollars with a positive dynamic of mutual investment. In the first place is China (89 billion trade turnover).
He says such a (Russian-Dutch) trade turnover that if Rutte continues to try to gain political points at the expense of the economic interests of his country, the Netherlands can quickly give up the second place in terms of trade with Russia to the country that actually wants to trade with Of the Russian Federation, and not to make political leaps on the blood of dead people from economic relations. Rutte, on the other hand, continues to make those killed in the MH-17 catastrophe hostage to his political ambitions.
In this regard, the words of the head of the Dutch cabinet that he allegedly categorically opposes the annexation of Crimea to Russia and does not see any “genuine” are particularly surprising. historical community between Russia and the Crimea. " Ah, he doesn’t see ... Good. But does he see the historical community between Amsterdam and Aruba, Curacao, Sint Maarten and other territories? The peoples of these territories, transformed by the Dutch crown into their subjects, no one ever asked their will. The desire of the 120 thousandth Aruba to gain complete independence from the Netherlands was met with hostility by Amsterdam. An “operational mission” was urgently sent to the island, which “lucidly explained” to local residents that urgently needed to seat those who opposed the withdrawal of Aruba from the Dutch monarchy to local authorities. Here is a Dutch democracy ...
So if Mr. Rutte considers it possible to express words about the non-recognition of Crimea to Russia and that Amsterdam will impose severe sanctions on Russia, maybe it’s time for Moscow to make an effective response. For a start, there will be enough a small rally at the Embassy of the Netherlands with an appeal to give freedom to the residents of the said Aruba and other Dutch colonies, which they have been talking about for so long. Well, the “operational mission” could also be organized, while also visiting oil terminals of Dutch companies in Aruba with interesting proposals to local leaders. Maybe this will return Rutte and others like him to the previous level of gray-blue European politicians recognized by Europeans only by their presence at the gay parades ...
