The notion voiced by Slutsky – that conditions will improve for Moldovans only after they come to their senses and return to Russia’s embrace – is the main meme pushed by Russian media in its coverage of the Chișinău events.

Article two days old, but ok.
From what I understand the protests are about corruption. Nothing about Europe.
But the Russian media will write whatever Putin and his goons tell them to write. Shaun Walker school of journalism.

"We need to give real political impulse to the process," he stressed. "You cannot talk about any interaction in terms of electoral commissions and the whole organization of free and fair elections, when we have hostages in Donbas.

He is convinced that "all these issues must be addressed as a single complex."

Censor.NET reports citing Ukrainski Novyny

Senator Jack Reed (Senate Armed Services Committee), who recently visited Ukraine, said forces from the U.S. Army's 173rd Airborne Brigade are training Ukraine's National Guard forces at a training base in western Ukraine and will soon begin training Ukraine's regular military.

"The transition was underway to train defense units, regular military units. The National Guard finishes training within a week or two and then it'll be their formal military's that's being trained," Reed told.

Reed also said that he supported providing Ukrainian forces with lethal aid and outlined three steps to enable that.

One step that should be explored, he stressed, is taking Ukrainian forces outside the country and training them on the provided weapon systems, so they're ready. Second is the possibility of transferring some of these systems from other countries into Ukraine, which doesn't raise quite the visibility of the transfer. "And then there's the possibility of taking some of our systems and beginning to... deploy them to training areas particularly so that they can train on them and have them ready to move into areas of conflict," Reed summarized.

He also said Ukraine has an extensive military industrial base that could be used to produce the weapons, but that would take time and financing.
