Reports circulating in the Kremlin today state that an enraged
President Putin has ordered Russian Foreign Ministry Officials to
begin the processes needed for Russia to recognize the Lakota Sioux
Indian Tribe as an independent Nation, and who have now broken away
from the United States by renouncing their treaties with their
occupiers, and as we can read as reported by the AFP News Service:

"The Lakota Indians, who gave the world legendary warriors Sitting
Bull[pictured left] and Crazy Horse, have withdrawn from treaties with
the United States, leaders said Wednesday.

"We are no longer citizens of the United States of America and all
those who live in the five-state area that encompasses our country are
free to join us," long-time Indian rights activist Russell Means told
a handful of reporters and a delegation from the Bolivian embassy,
gathered in a church in a run-down neighborhood of Washington for a
news conference.

A delegation of Lakota leaders delivered a message to the State
Department on Monday, announcing they were unilaterally withdrawing
from treaties they signed with the federal government of the United
States, some of them more than 150 years old.

They also visited the Bolivian, Chilean, South African and Venezuelan
embassies, and will continue on their diplomatic mission and take it
overseas in the coming weeks and months, they told the news
conference.

Lakota country includes parts of the states of Nebraska, South Dakota,
North Dakota, Montana and Wyoming.

The new country would issue its own passports and driving licences,
and living there would be tax-free -- provided residents renounce
their US citizenship, Means said.

The treaties signed with the United States are merely "worthless words
on worthless paper," the Lakota freedom activists say on their
website.

The treaties have been "repeatedly violated in order to steal our
culture, our land and our ability to maintain our way of life," the
reborn freedom movement says.

Withdrawing from the treaties was entirely legal, Means said.

"This is according to the laws of the United States, specifically
article six of the constitution," which states that treaties are the
supreme law of the land, he said.

"It is also within the laws on treaties passed at the Vienna
Convention and put into effect by the US and the rest of the
international community in 1980. We are legally within our rights to
be free and independent," said Means."

Putin's anger, according to these reports, is based upon the United
States engineering of the failure of United Nations talks on the
Serbian breakaway province of Kosovo which is seeking independence,
and which, according to Russian experts, will lead to an
'uncontrollable crisis' throughout the Balkans.

Putin was reported to have told one of his top aides that 'two can
play at this game', in an obvious reference to the American President
whom President Putin blames as being behind the machinations to
increase instability along Russia's borders with Eastern Europe.

Russian legal experts further state that of all of the United States
Indian Tribes, the Lakota Sioux are the best positioned to have their
declaration of independence from the American government recognized by
the United Nations as they remain the only indigenous peoples in the
US to have refused to accept payment for their lands, estimated to be
nearly $1 billion, which they consider their 'sacred grounds' and have
stated they would never relinquish.

It is, also, interesting to note that the Lakota Sioux are credited
with one of the American Indians greatest defeat of US Military Forces
in the Indian Wars by defeating the US Civil War Hero George Armstrong
Custer and his Seventh Calvary in June, 1876 at the battle of Little
Big Horn.

With these latest events, and with Russia as a potential new ally, one
can only wonder if these long suffering and resilient Indians can once
again defeat their age old enemies residing in the corridors of power
in Washington D.C.
