This wouldn’t be the first time a huge conflict of interest has emerged from the Western-instigated crisis in Ukraine.

Watch a video of this report here:


In an attempt to find an alternative to Russian gas supplies, Ukrainian Prime Minister Yatsenyuk has announced that American company Frontera Resources Corporation will be working in the country to build a liquefied natural gas terminal.

The company believes it has prospective resoures of 365 billion cubic meters of gas, with 266 billion cubic meters of recoverable resources.

Ukraine stopped buying gas from Russia on July 1st, and Kiev believes Western financial institutions, such as the IMF, may provide the country with $1 billion to purchase natural gas. However, with the worsening crisis in Greece they would not be wise to bet on such help being guaranteed.

As such, the involvement of American companies in the country raises more than a few eyebrows. Just last year, the son of American Vice President Joe Biden, Hunter Biden, was placed onto the board of a major Ukrainian gas company.

These sought of insider dealings and oligarchical antics should be a major cause for alarm to believers in liberal-democratic values and the rule of law.
