As the results rolled in, they were met with neither surprise nor welcome by the west. Barack Obama's press secretary, Jay Carney, underlined the White House's opposition to the referendum in a statement on Sunday afternoon: "We reject the 'referendum' that took place today in the Crimean region of Ukraine. This referendum is contrary to Ukraine's constitution, and the international community will not recognise the results of a poll administered under threats of violence and intimidation from a Russian military intervention that violates international law."tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb0 }! @6 p1 P3 ^3 k _

Speaking on the sidelines of a cabinet meeting, Ukraine's acting defence minister, Ihor Tenyukh, said the deal has been struck with Russia's Black Sea fleet and the Russian defence ministry. "No measures will be taken against our military facilities in Crimea during that time,"he said. "Our military sites are therefore proceeding with a replenishment of reserves."公仔箱論壇# m, b7 L; u; m% n: W1 ^

But there seems little doubt that Ukrainian forces will be evicted from Kremlin-controlled Crimea once the truce expires on Friday. Crimea's deputy prime minister, Rustam Temirgaliyev, said on Sunday troops would be given safe passage and predicted that eastern Ukraine would be next to join Russia.

"Donetsk, Lugansk, Kharkiv have the same situation, as in Crimea. Seventy-five per cent of people want to join Russia in eastern Ukraine," he told journalists near the parliament building in Simferopol.There was further turmoil in Donetsk when pro-Russian protesters stormed the prosecutor's office and removed the Ukrainian flag from the roof raising a Russian flag in its place. Riot police deployed to protect the building made little effort to stop the crowd, which later dispersed.公仔箱論壇. |8 n" D; T8 d9 z. j( o

The government in Kiev has accused Moscow of deliberately stirring up tensions in the east by bringing in professional activists and provocateurs from across the border. In a series of ominous statements, Russia's foreign ministry has said it may be forced to act to"protect" ethnic Russians – an expression that appears to provide a rationale for future military incursions.

Ukraine's acting prime minister, Arseniy Yatsenyuk, has promised to take action against separatist"ringleaders" who, he said, had compromised his country's independence "under the cover of Russian troops". He said: "We will find all of them – if it takes one year, two years – and bring them to justice. The ground will burn beneath their feet."The conflict spread from the ground to the internet, with several Nato websites targeted by hacker scalling themselves Cyber Berkut, after the Ukrainian riot police who were disbanded by the Kiev government. Crimean officials said their referendum website was also hacked.

A similar thing happened two days ago at another demonstration next to the [Taras] Shevchenko statue. A man– not local – came up and said: 'What are you doing? Where are your papers?'"

Meanwhile, Dave Young, a British expatriate who has lived in Kiev for nine years, turned up at the Maidan on Sunday waving a Union flag with the words: "Ukraine-Great Britain". Young said he was unimpressed by David Cameron's handling of the Ukraine crisis. "His response has been limp and apathetic. He's seemed more concerned with protecting the interests of the City than doing what is right."

Young said he feared the crisis in Ukraine raised profound questions for Europe and its values.
