    Reuters, citing Interfax, says the Russian Black Sea fleet says it has no plans to launch an assault on Ukranian military units in Crimea.

    The latest round of risk aversion today was sparked by comments from Ukranian defense sources  saying they had been given until 0300 GMT to surrender.

    who can you believe?

    Must be the same source that said on Friday that those Russian speaking troops (with no insigia on their uniforms) which 'secured' 2 Crimea airports, were not Russian Army troops.  Foot in Mouth.  Also Putin stated that he will be 'observing' the status of other Russian ethnic regions in Ukraine. fwiw, I think Putin is just getting warmed up. (other than talk, there won't be any global obstructions to this intrusion). good trading.  FYI, i'm still buckled up waiting for that envitable opportunity....

    Russia ...
