Ukrainian gold reserves loaded on an unidentified transport aircraft.

[Down1]

Bye , bye gold.

Ukrainian gold reserves loaded on an unidentified transport aircraft in Kiev’s Borispol airport and flown to Uncle Sam’s vault
According to the iskra-news.info last night ,Ukrainian gold reserves (40 sealed boxes) were loaded on an unidentified transport aircraft in Kiev’s Borispol airport. The board took off immediately.

A source in the Ukrainian government confirmed that the transfer of the gold reserves of Ukraine to the United States was ordered by the acting PM Arseny Yatsenyuk.

So my guess is, that is if indeed this report is true it either means the new ruling elite have stolen the gold bullion or perhaps their is a legitimate fear of the Russians taking possession of this bullion, whatever the facts, it still looks very shady indeed.

Yeah it'll be safe... From the Ukrainian people. It will now only exist as a Ukrainian ledger entry, and everything will be fine as long as they don't demand their gold back/ open Pandora's box... How much did Ukraine have?

[mamboni]

But but but.... Ben Shalom Bernanke said gold is not money, that it's only a tradition. I don't understand why the gold is the first thing TPTB grab whenever there is regime change. Can someone explain this apparent contradiction?

It is Orwellian.

24hgold shows Ukraine's Gold Reserves @ 29.2 Tons as of 2010. http://www.24hgold.com/english/stat_country_detail.aspx?titre=central%20bank%20go ld%20reserves%20%28in%20ounces%29&pays=Ukraine&deid=19576B1670

I am not finding many other firm numbers on their gold holdings. Plenty of stuff on total Foreign Reserves held.

The WGC has Ukraine's gold reserves @ 35.1 tonnes in Nov 2012. link to pdf. http://www.gold.org/download/value/stats/statistics/archive/pdf/World_Official_Gold_Holdings_as_of_November2012_IF S.pdf

So are we looking at 1 tonne per box?

I can't help but wonder if stealing Ukraine's gold was one of the things "crawling under the carpet", possibly the reason for the whole scam.

The strong dollar scam stops when they can no longer credibly pretend that there is no shortage of physical.

Libya was liberated from Khadafi for its gold as well.

Prettys simple formula: Need gold? Overthrow a government.

That was the deal. We put you in power, you give us your gold.

[Horn]

That was the deal. We put you in power, you give us your gold.

Or when they remove the physical, they retreat and leave Ukraine to the Russians.

When will they learn....."If you don't.....and so on"

The whole Ukranian crisis was for the West (US and EU) to loot Ukraine and help encircle Russia.

My first thought as well. Not so much that TBTB grab it, but why does Ukraine feel so compelled to protect such a barbarous relic?

So about a million ounces, possibly worth at today's price $1-1.5 Billion. The US didn't give Ukraine a loan, they bought their gold at a good price...

Me thinks it's to prevent a default on Gold deliveries. More and more people are noticing that they were unable to deliver the whole amount promised to Germany [for this year].

[Sparky]

The U.S. is able to ship 40 tonnes from Ukraine to U.S. overnight, but they need a year to ship 5 tonnes out to Germany.

[vacuum]

It's incomprehensible to me why they'd give their gold to the US in light of the current situation with Germany.

Obviously those in a position to make such a decision about Ukraine's gold holdings aren't the least bit concerned with the Ukrainian people's best interests, they're being concerned with someone else's best interests (the usual suspects).
