Putin’s goal? To make russians and ukrainians kill each other. He is in dire need of a big, big pile of dead bodies.
By Andrey Illarionov. Andrei Illarionov is a senior fellow at the Cato Institute’s Center for Global Liberty and Prosperity. From 2000 to December 2005, he was the chief economic adviser of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

He does not want to kill Ukrainians with Russian guns. He wants Russians, Ukrainians and Tatars in Ukraine to kill each other. Responding to the question, “Do you want to make a grab for Crimea?”, Putin lowers his gaze modestly and wordlessly says: “No, no, not now! First – civil war.”
