RUSSIA'S "UNCONTESTED ARRIVAL"

The administration is not calling the movement of Russian troops into the Crimea an "invasion" but an "uncontested arrival." Clearly the Obama administration does not want to see this as a crisis or the infringement of Russian interests on the Ukraine.  I can't ever recall when the term "uncontested arrival" was ever used in history.  Not even Chamberlain in the 1930s was clever enough to come up with this terminology.  So don't look for Washington to do much to pressure Putin.
