Among them the requirement to improve the normal economic relations with Russia. Farmers (simple people) love Russia, but the government doesn't love Russia. Or the government of Finland is afraid of the US?
These sanctions are as big a cause for Europe's disunity as the refugees... and the way I see it, together with the refugee crisis will cause the EU's break up. At the beginning Merkel was not willing to go along with the sanctions, but they were embarrassed into doing so...according to Biden. Frankly I don't think it was embarrassment as much as financial pressure. ..and then of course there was the false flag attack with the airliner in Ukraine and all the lies in the European papers to convince the public that Russia was the cause. Washington is also holding on to Germany's gold, even though they asked for it back years ago. Probably so they could have something to hold over Germany's head. All this makes one wonder if it's only Russia the neo cons want to destroy so they could buy it up, but Europe as well? Here's a reminder of the propaganda Washington used so they could break up the EU's relationship with Russia and destroy it. These are the victims of the Kiev false flag attack.
