U.S. Treasury's Lew Urges Ukraine to Turn to IMF

[Origanalist]

Feb 19 (Reuters) - The Ukraine's fundamental problem is that it suffers from an economic crisis and the country should ask the International Monetary Fund for help, U.S. Treasury Secretary Jack Lew said on Wednesday.

"At the core they have an economic crisis and they are going to need to deal with it," Lew told a conference hosted by the World Affairs Council.

"And the mechanism that's best for Ukraine to deal with it would be to come to the IMF and have a package where they put in place economic reforms where they get the support that they need in exchange for the steps to fix their economy," Lew said.

Thanks to the street hooligans, Ukraine is a few steps closer to solidifying their status as a third world country. Freedom fighters fighting for the right to bound themselves in chains.

Ah, the Economic Hit Men come out into the open.

(Go to the 9:00 mark to hear discussion of manipulating nations into going into debt, around 12:00 mark he talks about fomenting coups).

Ah, the Economic Hit Men come out into the open.

Ex-Im Bank Too... funneling money back to U.S. corporations no matter the destructive policies. They buy the politicians and ensure they will stay in office if they sign the dotted line.
As you can see from John Perkins testimony, it's true and it happens to this day. I really glad he touched on the Muslims recognizing the "Capitalism Scheme" imposed b the US and the ideologues playing all sides, in pushing their agenda which has created the tremendous resentment and backlash around the world, It is directly responsible for the attacks and cause of domestic tyranny. Insecurities that can never all be foiled... this also matches-up to what former Bin Laden CIA station chief Micheal Scheuer writings/warnings and continues to cover.

BTW, put on your filters... ever notice you don't see a group of this caliber people at the; Wilson Center, CSIS, Atlantic Group, AEI, CFR, Aspen Inst., AFPC, AJC, FFRDC, Memri, Commonwealth Institute, Council on the Americas, Washington Institute for Near East Policy (WINEP), Roosevelt Institute, et al...

[email protected] Two projects, financed by the U.S., are being developed within protected World Heritage Site – TONIGHT, June 11 at 8:00pmET

DALLAS – June 11, 2013 This week, “Dan Rather Reports” brings you Down Under for an investigation into two U.S.-financed natural gas facilities being built within the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage site, and about 40 miles from the world’s largest stretch of living coral.

Five billion dollars in financing for the projects is coming from the U.S. Export-Import Bank, an obscure federal agency charged with boosting U.S. exports and creating jobs for Americans.

But the United Nations agency UNESCO, along with environmentalists and scientists like Matt Landos, warn that the developments will cause irreversible damage to one of the most delicate, diverse and unique ecosystems on earth.
“We’re really landing quite a mortal blow on this area here,” Landos told us on a tour of the World Heritage Site. “Essentially, decisions made here are making this a sacrificial lamb. This area’s being sacrificed for industry.”

“Dan Rather Reports: Great Barrier Grief” airs Tuesday, June 11 at 8:00pm ET/5:00 p.m. PT only on AXS TV.

It's amazing how easy it is. Spew some propaganda, do a little inside agitating, and then the street punks and the cops are more than happy to oblige with violence and destruction.
