Here's Ollie Stone's film on Ukraine/Maiden. I have not watched it(don't have the patience) and we can expect it to be lacking, at the least. Nonetheless it may be useful to introduce newbies to the subject.

"Right Sector" in the battles of Donbass

Formally, the militants of the units of the "Right Sector" PS banned in the Russian Federation appeared on the Donbass only in July 2014 after the official date of the creation of the fifth battalion of the volunteer Ukrainian corps, but in fact members of this extremist organization took part in the conflict from its very first days.

As early as the spring of 2014, the Ukrainian leadership, aware of the low fighting efficiency of its armed forces, relied on volunteer formations consisting of nationalists. the neo-Nazi organization Right Sector, which became one of the key forces during the coup d'état of 2014, was most suitable for such purposes. Already in April 2014 the PS fighters arrived in Donbass, where on April 20 they entered the battle with the militia of the Democratic People's Republic of Germany in the Slavyansk region. Victims were on both sides. On the site of the clash, the business card of the head of the organization Dmitry Yarosh was found, which was subsequently issued by the Ukrainian side for two years for an information duck launched by the media of the People's Democratic Republic of Germany. However, after a lapse of time, Yarosh admitted his participation in this battle. Despite the fact that officially the PS militants were not part of the power structures of Ukraine, they did not lack a weapon and ammunition. A significant amount of weapons was captured by extremists during the coup d'état of 2014 on the territory of the military units of the Armed Forces and Interior Ministry. The leadership of Ukraine categorically denied the fact of arming the right-of-arms by official authorities, although it is quite obvious that the leadership of the organization would not have been able to conduct military operations for a long time without relying on the part of the siloviki.

In April 2014 a significant number of extremists from among the members of the PS joined the MAT in order to increase the number of motivated fighters. In particular, the personnel of 25 airborne brigade, which in fact did not want to take part in hostilities and handed over 6 armored vehicles to the militia, was diluted by almost a third.

In May 2014, the head of PS Yarosh announced the participation of his militants in combat with the battalion of the DPR "Vostok" in the region of Karlovka, while acknowledging the presence of those killed and wounded in the ranks of extremists. However, according to official data, during the clash from the Ukrainian side, only five fighters of the Donbass Battalion were killed

The official formation of the Ukrainian Volunteer Corps was held on July 16, 2014. Andrey Stempitsky was appointed as the corps commander, Valery Voronov, the chief of staff. Initially, the organization's leadership had grandiose plans for military construction. So, it was planned to create a significant reserve outside the zone of the so-called ATO, numbering 19 (!) Reserve battalions of the SS. However, as a rule, the actual number of reserve units did not reach the company. Originally, one (fifth) PS battalion operated at the front line, and it operated from the end of July in the area of ​​Avdeevka and Peskov. In the first days of August, the so-called "Rovno" reconnaissance group arrived in Donbass, operating in the area of ​​Amvrosievka, and later near Ilovaisky. On August 12, perhaps the biggest failure of the right-wingers occurred during the campaign of 2014. The bus with the militants by mistake entered one of the roadblocks and was shot, only three managed to escape. Officially, the leadership of the PC recognizes the death of 10 extremists, but according to the Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Avakov on the bus in total there were 31 gunmen. At the end of August, in the area of ​​Saur-Mohyla, according to Yarosh, 10 more legal secretaries were killed. During this period, there was a serious conflict between the leadership of extremists and the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine. It came to direct accusations of betrayal of Avakov. Nevertheless. The Kyivan authorities did not go into disarmament not under the control of the organization, fearing political consequences. Not the least role in this was played by the level of extremist motivation higher than that of the MNA.

In the fall of 2014, the 5th DUK Battalion operated in the area of ​​Donetsk airport and Peskov, where it lost at least 11 people killed. It should be noted that the right-wing factions operating in the DAP area did have a high morale, there were no cases of panic and surrender. January 2015 advisor to the President of Ukraine Yuri Biryukov said that the "Right Sector" refused to transfer its armed forces under the control of the Ministry of Defense. According to him, the members of the group were offered schemes of "full legalization" - in particular, they proposed mandatory service under the contract, however, the "Right Sector" refused it. The PS fighters, along with the APU units, make their way to the cyborgs blocked in the New Terminal, but they did not have success . Moreover, Yarosh, who was on the front line, was wounded during the fighting. Nevertheless,# Loss No). In general, information with losses of extremists is extremely confusing, since they were not part of the official formations of the Armed Forces and Interior Ministry. During the initial stage of the war, there were groups that did not submit to anyone's command at all. accounting for losses in which simply was not included in any reports. On February 13, 2015, Dmitry Yarosh announced that the DUK "PS" reserves the right not to comply with the Supreme Armed Forces' ceasefire orders and reserves the right to continue active combat operations according to its own plans. But. The pressure of the western curators of Kiev nevertheless allowed to take the militants under control. On February 15, Jarosch announced his readiness to observe the ceasefire. In April 2015, it was announced that the PS fighters were being withdrawn from the front lines in Peski. However, at the same time in the Shirokino district 8 companies of the PS began to operate, later expanded to battalion. During this period, the "Aryans" operating in the assault units were diluted by Georgian and Chechen fighters. Nominally, the PS was staffed by extremists from the Caucasus, the Sheikh Mansur Battalion, acting in Shirokino. In the same place, a former Battalion battalion of Donbass of Georgian nationality, known as Doberman, was seen. In addition, the tactical group "Belarus", consisting of Belorussian citizens, operated in the PS units. In the summer of 2015, the 7th DUK PS battalion was transferred to Peski, which immediately provoked an escalation in the region. Subsequently, 9 battalions formed in Zaporozhye were included in the ranks of the fighting formations of the SS.

In the summer of 2015, the 7th DUK PS battalion was transferred to Sands, which immediately provoked an escalation in the area. Subsequently, 9 battalions formed in Zaporozhye were included in the ranks of the fighting formations of the SS.

In July 2015 in Mukacheve (Transcarpathia) there was an armed clash of fighters of the DUK "Right Sector" with police officers, which grew into a confrontation between the "Right Sector" and the authorities, but ended in loud mutual rhetoric. Nevertheless, the conflict continued to escalate. The authorities could not take armed extremists under their control. There were armed incidents between law enforcement officers and law enforcement agencies. In September 2015 in the Rivne region, a group of armed men were arrested, who were called representatives of the DUK cell "Right Sector" and organized illegal amber mining in the village of Borovoye, Zarechna district, the proceeds from which they said were to be spent for the needs of ATU fighters. One local resident was wounded during the detention. Policemen were handed over confiscated weapons and ammunition

September 12, 2015 Andrei Stempitsky as the head of the organization "Trident" issued an order banning members of the organization to voluntarily serve in the security services of Ukraine (except for the appeal to the Armed Forces) "in connection with the intensification of repression against the nationalist movement."

November 11, 2015, Dmitry Yarosh said that he resigned from the leadership of the movement

On February 2, 2016, the chief military prosecutor of Ukraine, Anatoly Matios, on the air of the radio station Gromadske radio said that the DUK "Right Sector" on all legal grounds and according to the Ukrainian Constitution is an illegal armed formation .

In February 2016, Yarosh announced the "newly created Ukrainian Volunteer Army", in which he called the same "fifth battalion, the permanent composition of which - 200 people, and the state - 637 people. The eighth battalion is 317 people, plus the medical service "Hospitallers" - several hundred people. At the same time, Yarosh voiced the generalized data on losses of the SS since the beginning of the war. Thus, according to him, 64 militants were killed in two years, more than 500 were injured. the very ratio of losses of 64 to 500 speaks about silence of the number of killed, besides, as it was said above, in the spring of 2014 the losses were not actually registered, and the official statistics did not include losses of the PS.

Since the summer of 2016 to this day, the UDD unit, which has become a DUK receiver, is fighting in the area of ​​Peskov and Avdeevka. In addition, the 8th battalion still operates on the Southern Front of the People's Democratic Republic. At the moment, the author knows the data about 94 deaths during the war in the Donbass of the PS militants, it is obvious that these data are not complete. Along with individual formations operating in the DUK and UDD in the ranks of the 54 mechanized brigade, there is an assault company "Wolves of Podillya". Corrected by left out of the DUK pravosekami. Rota took part in the battles on the so-called Svetlodar arc in December 2016, where she suffered significant losses.

Summarizing the activities of the Right Sector forces in the Donbass, there is a double sensation: on the one hand, the PS fighters were represented on the front line in the campaigns of 2014-15 by the forces of one battalion and their contribution to the war is greatly exaggerated by the media. Perhaps their only success was the participation in the defense of the DAP in the autumn of 2014, where they proved to be a motivated opponent of the Supreme Council of the Supreme Council. It should also be noted that the PS in Donbass was raspiaren not only Ukrainian media. Often, journalists and bloggers who highlight the conflict on our part attributed to them other people's "merits", seeing right-wingers at every turn. On the other hand, the presence of a large number of fighters frankly neo-Nazi organization allowed the current authorities to form a large number of volunteers from their number, which in many respects replaced the frankly incompetent parts of the Armed Forces in the summer of 2014. And the personnel of the regular formations of the Nezalezhnaya was largely diluted by the neo-Nazis who gave the operation a punitive character. The parable in the languages ​​has become the brutal attitude of right-wingers to the inhabitants of the Donbass and especially to prisoners of war. However, any action gives rise to counteraction. The protectors of the Donbass were captured by right-wing secretaries not to take.

At the moment, UDD units continue to take part in the fighting in the Donbass. On January 16, two more militants were killed in Peski ... The existence of an openly armed neo-Nazi formation, weakly subordinate to the current government (numbering up to 2,000 militants) continues to be a vivid characteristic of the modern Ukrainian state. As they say, there is no fascism in Ukraine ...

Arsenal goes to auction on centenary of workers' uprising

By Vitalina Butkalyuk
Liva.com.ua

January 29: Symbolically, it was today, on the 100th anniversary of the Arsenal factor uprising, that an auction was launched to sell one of the buildings of the oldest plant in Kiev.

"Bidding will be held through the electronic auction house Setam, on the website of which the sale is reported. The seller is Ukrgasbank, which owns the building and the adjacent land. In addition to 38,000 square meters of non-residential premises, a plot of 1.36 hectares is also to be sold. On the site of the plant, according to the information about the lot, there should be an office and shopping center with parking. Despite the considerable cost, four candidates, whose names are kept secret, have already applied for participation in the auction,” Vesti newspaper reported.

Behind these lines is a real national tragedy. Neoliberal Ukraine, which has obediently followed the IMF's "recommendations" for more than twenty years, does not need high-tech industrial enterprises and the highly-skilled specialists employed in them. Today’s politicians and bureaucrats do not need the plant with its high-tech production -- they only need the land occupied by the workshops to build another shopping center with parking lots in the center of the capital.

Painting depicting the 1918 workers' uprising at the Arsenal factor in Kiev, Ukraine.

Meanwhile, this plant is known not only for its outstanding history, associated with the great rising of the Ukrainian proletariat, which is glorified in the films of Alexander Dovzhenko and Timofei Levchuk. Created in 1764, according to the Arsenal Team, the Kiev Arsenal was one of the leading enterprises of the optical, mechanical and opto-electronic industries of the USSR. A quarter of a century ago, it produced a whole range of military-industrial and civilian products, without which it is impossible to imagine the successful implementation of the Soviet space program.

Arsenal optical-electronic guidance systems provided orientation for space launches at Baikonur. In the 1970s, the factory developed a complex of external visual environment simulators, which created a complete illusion of maneuvering and controlling spacecraft for ground-based cosmonaut training. The simulators manufactured at the plant were equipped with models of actual craft -- including the Mir space station, which was later sacrificed and crashed in the ocean, and the Buran space shuttle, dismantled for scrap.

Special cameras of the Arsenal plant were used for taking photographs from aboard the spacecraft Vostok and Soyuz, interplanetary stations Luna and Zond, and the Salyut orbital stations. And also repeatedly used when cosmonauts conducted space walks.

Helmet-based aircraft targeting systems, which were also manufactured at the plant, are still used on MiG-29 and Su-27 in combination with the homing beacons for air-to-air missiles created here. Subsequently, similar systems were actively used for navigation in civil aviation of the former USSR.



Alas, the story is ironic -- the famous Kiev plant survived shelling by nationalist units, survived the Second World War, but was actually destroyed as a result of "effective market reforms.” In the Soviet era, the Arsenal employed about 30,000 workers, and today there remain several hundred formally employed workers, mostly pensioners. So the matter of the final liquidation of the famous plant is just a matter of time.

Today's auction confirms: the goal of destroying the industrial giant was to sell off the valuable land in the central Pechersk district of the capital -- as the workers themselves repeatedly stated. But the sale of the plant’s premises is not just coincidental with today's anniversary date. The Ukrainian bourgeoisie seeks to settle accounts with the factory, which once became a symbol of the struggle against its domination, to humiliate the historical memory of its insurgent workers, whose tombs were trashed during the "Euromaidan" and still stands in dilapidated form. And it is very much afraid of the fact that living factories can someday become centers of new, similar uprisings.

No future for youth
POSTED BY @NSANZO ⋅ 02/15/2018 ⋅ LEAVE A COMMENT

Original Article: Andrey Manchuk

Image

Important universities and educational institutions have decided, one by one, to extend the holidays until spring. The first to make that decision was one of the main educational institutions of Odessa, example that followed the University of Kiev Shevchenko. And if Odessa timidly tried to explain that it was a response to the measles epidemic, in Kiev, the oldest university in Ukraine openly admitted that it has no money to pay for electricity and heating.

So the administration decided to send the students home and continue the instruction "in telematic mode," even though there is no real opportunity to implement that plan. The Shevchenko students received a list of recommended literature, a series of prepared texts and a desire to be studied at home. "The universities decide how much they teach in face-to-face classes according to their budget," said Education Minister Lilia Hrinevich to defend the decision and suggesting that the government supports and encourages universities to close temporarily.

"This is a real defeat, a shame and a tragedy. Now I'm not going to write that, even in the difficult 90's, this did not happen and this is one of the best universities in Ukraine, "said the" young reformer "and ex-deputy Egor Firsov. Students will not be compensated for this free time in the form of the classes they have paid. In addition, according to the students themselves, the decision was initially raised in September. Other sources say that it was even earlier, in the spring of last year. The idea of ​​extending the winter holidays to be like summer vacations was born then. Taking into account the cost of heating and what it meant for the battered budget, the administration decided to save money on the students, claiming that they do not mind extending the holidays and studying "at a distance":

It must be said that these lying claims are not so far from reality: the objective of the "educational reform" that has been carried out in Ukraine after Maidan has been reduced to "austerity policies" at the expense of the interests of the students . The irony is that these approved policies are commonly used in the struggle for power. That began at the beginning of this decade, when opposition parties and foreign investment funds promoted the campaign of protests against the "anti-Ukrainian" minister Dmitry Tabachnik.

Image

Subsequently, the students played an important role in the mobilization of Euromaidan. By way of thanks, the ministers "Democrats" have dramatically reduced the items for higher education, have achieved a complete commercialization and subsequently, has eliminated much of the scholarships. According to the decision of the Ministry of Finance, only 25% of students will receive scholarships. By 2020, the number will be reduced to 15%. This is also explained and justified as a savings policy. However, according to the students, the current monthly stipend of 925 hryvnias [just over 30 dollars at the current exchange rate - Ed ] only leaves about three hryvnias a day to eat. It is little more than nothing.

However, this policy of unprecedented cuts has not led to mass protests in universities and institutes in the country. The student organizations that participated in the protests against Tabachnik are in a state of decay and stagnation and neither public partners nor foreign funds encourage protests against the patriotic leadership of the Ministry of Education. Any protest against the ministry of Lilia Grinevish is now considered harmful and inopportune. Ukrainskaya Pravda journalist Alexey Bratuschak, for example, openly disqualified the students for wanting to protest "for forty euros". "You have to save in everything, also in education," the journalist wrote, cynically remembering that nobody has died of hunger for not having a scholarship.

It is a sad but instructive image: the students used before end up in the garbage as something unnecessary. The Ukrainian government is unable to give young people work and social rights and the population with higher education is increasingly unnecessary. The deindustrialization of recent years has significantly reduced the demand for specialists in a large number of companies that until now were considered basic for the national economy and the crisis gradually devalues ​​the work of entire categories of public employees: among them are teachers .

"To be honest, neither for you nor for me is your diploma necessary," said Prime Minister Groisman openly in a meeting with students a year ago. The Government has encouraged the youth and the working population to emigrate to work, in order to reduce the burden of social spending. Although experts warn that it is a deliberate way to deprive the country of future prospects.

Impoverished and resentful, the students quickly became accustomed to being extras in the new Maidan, with the same slogans of struggle for the nation and reforms.

Briefly about the Donbass. 02/02/2018

Briefly about the Donbass.

1. Interview Zaruba.

Former assistant Bolotova breaks the covers on the topic of Carpenter and Co. According to Zaruba, Plotnitsky is now in the Cross and gives evidence.



As they say - And then as the sun from behind the clouds. No one really knew who Igor Venediktovich was. Joke.

Democracy and glasnost
Already about to come.
Hence, it is safe to
break all the covers.

2. Vladimir Orlov on the prospects for a peaceful settlement in the Donbass.

For some reason, all persistently mold one picture, saying that in Ukraine there is no internal conflict and to stop the conflict in the Donbass and Ukraine can only be through a set of measures in support of the implementation of the notorious Minsk agreements.
Minsk agreements do not solve a lot of fundamental issues: the
Minsk agreements do not solve the problem of the Uniate and Orthodoxy conflict in any way;
Minsk agreements do not solve the issue of the Bandera ideology of an aggressive minority in Ukraine;
Minsk agreements do not solve the issue of civilizational and cultural divisions of Ukrainian society;
Minsk agreements do not solve the issue that on May 9, one part of the Ukrainian society celebrates Victory over the heroes of another part of Ukrainian society on the territory of Ukraine, and on October 14, everything is exactly the opposite, when the day of the so-called Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA) is celebrated.
The only thing that the Minsk agreements solve is the issue of the state ownership of certain territories and on the basis of what kind of legislation people will live there. And that's all.

But the issues of war and peace in Ukraine, through the Minsk agreements and the implementation of which are envisaged in the report of Chesnakov through the reintegration of the Donbass, are not solved in any way.

3. Concerning the "completion of ATU" in connection with the law on the reintegration of Donbass, signed by Poroshenko, this is essentially a rebranding in the spirit of "An-Nusra" in "Hayat-Tahrir-ash Sham". In fact, nothing changes. War as it was, so it will go. The shelling continued and will continue. Waving in the gray zone also will not go anywhere. Terrorist acts of the Ukrainian special services on the territory of the republics and attempts to disable the socio-economic infrastructure of the republics are attached. The law itself once again shows that while the Poroshenko regime is in power in Kiev, the war will not stop. Under the elections in the Russian Federation, some activation is possible (most likely in the territory of the People's Democratic Republic).

It is worth recalling that in November-December 2014 in the coal war between Plotnitsky and Kozitsyn in Antratsit and several other cities of the People's Republic of Germany several dozen people were killed.

A representative of Trump in Ukraine urged the Russian Federation to liquidate the Democratic People's Republic of China and the People's Republic of Germany.

Control over the Donbas should move from Russia to the UN, and then to Ukraine. Elections in areas beyond Kyiv's control can pass six months after the deployment of peacekeeping forces there.
The DNRs and LNRs created by Russia in the Donbas must be liquidated, since they do not correspond to the Constitution of Ukraine. About this on Saturday, March 3, said the Special Representative of the US State Department for the Affairs of Ukraine Kurt Volker, reports LB.

It is noted that he expressed this opinion during a panel discussion at the analytical center of the Hudson Institute, which was broadcast on the institution's website. "The so-called" Lugansk People's Republic "and" Donetsk People's Republic "are the formations created by Russia in order to help disguise the role of the Russian Federation and to strengthen the ongoing conflict, and they must be eliminated," Volcker said. He stressed that the Minsk agreements are aimed at restoring the sovereignty of Ukraine.

"There is no place for them in the Ukrainian constitutional order.The Minsk agreements are aimed at restoring the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine, and these entities must disappear," the US special envoy noted.

According to Volker, preparation of local elections in certain uncontrolled areas of Donetsk and Lugansk regions may take six months after the full deployment of the peacekeeping forces.

Volcker also hopes that the UN peacekeeping mission in the Donbass will become a means for the implementation of the Minsk agreements. In particular, he said, the assistance of the peacekeeping mission in the implementation of the Minsk agreements should create a transitional period for the transfer of control in the Donbass, first from Russia to the UN, and then to Ukraine.

The transfer of UN control over certain areas of Donetsk and Lugansk regions he called an intermediate stage "during which local elections will be organized and held, when there will be security, when amnesty will be provided to the persons who committed crimes that are part of the conflict, when a special status will be fixed ".
"And then the transition to Ukrainian control," Volcker said.

Of course, there is no, therefore, they will not return to Ukraine. Needless to say, under the current geopolitical realities, there are no prerequisites for the return of Donbass to Ukraine, so it is quite obvious that the negotiations between Russia and the United States on Ukraine will stall. Rather, they have already entered it. Because of this, as Volcker previously said, the continuation of hostilities in the course of 2018 is inevitable.

The bolding is as per the original, don't get it, perhaps a stab at humor, mebbe lost in translation. I am finding Boris less and less useful, not particularly this piece but generally he's been straddling communism and Putinism & as we well know the only thing on the centerline is dead possums.

Appeal of the CP of the CPD to all fraternal parties and organizations in connection with the ongoing fighting in the Donbass (eng, de, it, fr, sv, tr, pl, bg)
05.03.2018

Dear comrades,

For the fourth year there has been a war in the Donbass. It claimed the lives of more than 10 thousand people, almost 24 thousand were wounded, about 2 million were forced to leave their homes. Hundreds of children were killed and injured. The blood of the inhabitants of Donbass is in the hands of the Kiev regime, which unleashed military aggression in response to the self-determination of the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics.

April 14, 2014 Kiev officially announced the beginning of the so-called anti-terrorist operation in the Donbass. With the help of combat aviation and heavy artillery, the Ukrainian military began to level with the earth peaceful cities and villages. Almost 40 thousand buildings were destroyed in the territory of the People's Democratic Republic of Latvia and the People's Republic of Hungary. Among them there are no military facilities, but only schools, hospitals and residential buildings.

The adoption of the law on the "reintegration" of the Donbass by the Ukrainian parliament and the continuing supply of lethal weapons from the EU and the US to Ukraine indicate that world imperialism is interested in continuing the military conflict. Our answer must be proletarian internationalism. We call on all fraternal parties and organizations to join the initiative of the Communist Party of the People's Democratic Republic of Germany, go out to protest and hold pickets in their countries opposite the Ukrainian embassy on April 14, 2018.

There is no war in the Donbas!

Do self-designated DNA and LRD!

The Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Donetsk People's Republic

Dear Comrades,

For a 4th year in a row, there has been a savage war waged in the region of Donbass. It ha claimed the lives of more than 10,000 people, with almost 24,000 wounded, and about 2 million were forced to leave their homes. Hundreds of children have been killed and injured. The blood of the inhabitants of Donbass is on the hands of the Kiev regime, which unleashed military aggression in response to the declaration of independence and self-determination of the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics.

On April 14th, 2014, Kiev officially announced the beginning of the so-called anti-terrorist operation in the Donbass region. With the help of fighter aircraft and heavy artillery, the Ukrainian military began to level to the ground the peaceful cities and villages. Almost 40,000 buildings were destroyed in the territory of the People’s Republic of Donetsk and the People’s Republic of Lugansk. Among the areas deliberately targeted, there are no military facilities, but only schools, hospitals and houses.

The adoption of the law upon the forcible ‘Reintegration’ of the Donbass region by the Ukrainian Parliament, coupled with the continuing supply of lethal weapons from the EU and the US to ‘Maidan’ Ukraine, indicate that world imperialism is interested in continuing the military conflict. Our answer must be Proletarian Internationalism. We call on all fraternal parties and organizations to join the initiative of the Communist Party of the DPR, and go out to protest and hold pickets in their respective countries in front of the Ukrainian Embassy on April 14, 2018.

Hundreds of children were killed and injured. The blood of Donbass residents clings to the hands of the Kiev regime, which unleashed a military aggression in response to the self-determination of the Donetsk and Luhansk People's Republics.

With the help of fighter planes and heavy artillery, the Ukrainian military began to raze peaceful towns and villages. Nearly 40,000 buildings were destroyed in the DVR and LVR territories. Among them are no military objects, but only schools, hospitals and residential buildings.

The adoption of the law on the reintegration of Donbass and the continuing deliveries of lethal weapons from the EU and US to Ukraine show that world imperialism is interested in continuing the military conflict. Our answer should be proletarian internationalism. We call on all fraternal parties and organizations to join in the initiative of the Communist Party of the DVR to hold protests and hold remand vigils at the Ukrainian embassy in their countries on April 14, 2018.

Pilot Vladislav Voloshin, who committed suicide in Ukrainian Mykolayiv, was one of the suspects in the case of the crash of the Malaysian Boeing in Ukraine.

Local media reported that the deceased - 29-year-old hero of "ATO", pilot Voloshin, who last months headed the utility company "Mykolaiv International Airport".

In December 2014 it was reported that the Ukrainian Su-25 attack aircraft on the day of the collapse of Boeing flew off the airfield with air-to-air missiles , and returned without ammunition, while pilot Vladislav Voloshin was very frightened.

The SK of Russia wanted to subject Voloshin to a polygraph check , but the Ukrainian side, although confirming that there was such a pilot in the Ukrainian Armed Forces, stated that he did not make flights on the day of the collapse of Boeing.

The crash of Boeing 777 "Malaysian Airlines", which flew from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur, occurred on July 17, 2014.

Violation of the freedom of expression and religion in Ukraine [En, Ru]



Pro-fascist right-nationalist forces that came to power in Ukraine after the armed coup of 2014 grossly violate the Constitution, the rights and freedoms of citizens.

The ruling regime rudely suppresses any dissent, interferes in the activities of unwanted parties, public organizations, religious associations, persecutes representatives of traditional confessions, atheists.

Another act of "church raiding" occurred on April 2 in the Rivne region, where the militants of the punitive neo-Nazi battalions Aidar and Azov broke into the temple and were thrown out of the parishioners and priests of the canonical Orthodox Church under the threat of weapons, with total inaction by the police.

The Communist Party of Ukraine declares that such actions are sanctioned by the ruling regime with the aim of establishing a monopoly in the church sphere in the interests of those organizations that swore allegiance to Hitler during the Great Patriotic War, and in the years of independent Ukraine - oligarchic-Nazi criminals who unleashed the Civil War in the Donbass.

The Communist Party also recalls that the violation of human rights and the persecution of dissidents is an integral part of the policy of the ruling regime. The regime, which has so far failed to comply with any recommendations of the Venice Commission to bring into line with the Constitution of Ukraine and the norms of international law openly discriminatory laws on "decommunization", on education and other legislative acts that grossly violate human rights and freedoms.
