Russians Advise Caution in Korea Then Do Everything to Stir Up Trouble Themselves

“The US and South Korea holding yet more large-scale military and naval exercises does not help reduce tensions on the Korean Peninsula. We urge all sides to exercise maximum caution. Given the arms build-up in the region, any rash move or even an unintended incident could spark a military conflict.”
- Maria Zakharova, a spokeswoman for the foreign ministry, told a news briefing in Moscow.
For the sake of a more unstable world, you can pretty much guarantee that Vlad the Putin will exercise his fetish for causing trouble whenever and wherever he can.
First, these are the same guys who kidnapped Crimea, became squatters in eastern Ukraine and still threaten Europe.
Now, Vlad and the rest of his ruthless KGB throwbacks, complain about joint U.S. and South Korean annual military exercises this week and urge ‘maximum caution’ while warning against rash moves … as if we somehow didn’t see them as the knuckle-dragging neanderthals they’ve been under Putin.
Then — surprise, surprise — what does the Bear do after advising caution?

Putin makes tensions soar around eastern Asia by flying some nuclear-capable Tupolev-95MS bombers around the Sea of Japan, the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea on Wednesday.
This, of course, prompted fighter jets to scramble from Japan and South Korea to escort them.
If democracies are the heart and soul of the world, the Russians are, well, analogous to the body part where the sun never shines.
Sheesh!
