The IMF has told Kiev that if it
doesn’t defend eastern areas of Ukraine against pro-Russian forces, or
in other words risk going to war with Russia and starting World War 3,
that a planned $17 billion dollar bailout package will have to be
“redesigned”.
IMF head Christine Lagarde said that
the global body would “check regularly” to see if Ukraine was keeping
up with its commitments on which the loan deal is dependent. One of
those commitments includes a vow to use military forces to repel Russian
influence in the east of the country.
The IMF has told Kiev that the money spigot could be cut off if Kiev “loses control over (the) East of the country”.
“Which, roughly translated,
appears to mean go to war with pro-Russian forces (and thus Russia
itself if Putin sees his apparent countrymen in trouble) or you don’t
get your money!,” notes Zero Hedge.
Innumerable analysts have warned that
if Russia and Ukraine engage in a full blown conflict, regional and
even world war could eventually ensue. The IMF is seemingly so desperate
to make Ukraine another one of its loan shark client states that it is
willing to risk the annihilation of billions of people to achieve such a
scenario.
The fantastic “deal” that the
Ukrainian people are getting in allowing the post-coup government to
sell out to the IMF vampires includes a 50% hike in energy prices, a
halving in pensions, crippling inflation, huge tax hikes and a freeze in
the minimum wage.
Ironically, a huge chunk of that
money will be used to pay Russian-owned natural gas supplier Gazprom,
with whom Kiev is behind on its bills.
As we have documented,
asset stripping of troubled countries, achieved by means of onerous
austerity measures imposed on the poor and middle class, is standard
operating procedure for the IMF, which pulled the same stunt in numerous
other countries including Greece and Cyprus.
