Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Sunday 20 September. [Ukrainian sources] Empty Russian Ambassador to the UK lauds praise on Corbyn

Sun Sep 20, 2015 9:03 am
19.09.2015
Transcript of Ambasador Yakovenko's interview for Rossiya TV, 17 September 2015
It is difficult to overestimate the significance of Jeremy Corbyn being elected by an overwhelming, mostly young people the new leader of the Labour party and, thus, leader of the official parliamentary opposition. This is nothing short of a radical breakthrough in British politics of the last 30 years, which have never stepped beyond the so-called Thatcherist neo-liberal consensus of the establishment.
http://rusemb.org.uk/article/428
====
Clearly the Russians, like Seumas Milne, approve whole-heartedly of J Corbyn.
From that one can deduce that he is very bad news for Ukraine, and freedom in Eastern Europe, and the Baltics.

Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Sunday 20 September. [Ukrainian sources] Empty Russia Blocks Work Of The OSCE Mission On The Border To Conceal Its Involvement In Donbas Conflict – MFA

Sun Sep 20, 2015 12:09 pm


This is stated in a statement the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, circulated yesterday, 18 September.

Ministry of Foreign Affairs recalled that on September 17 the OSCE Permanent Council approved the decision to extend the mandate of the OSCE Observer Mission on two border crossings on the Russian side of the Ukrainian-Russian state border until 31 January 2016.

“According to the Minsk protocol of September 5, 2014, all of its signatories, including the Russian Federation, have committed to provide continuous monitoring of the Ukrainian-Russian state border and its verification by the OSCE, together with the creation of a security zone in the border regions of Ukraine and Russia”- referred to in a statement of the Foreign Ministry.

Foreign Ministry deplores Russia’s unwillingness to extend the mandate of the OSCE Mission on two border crossings on the Russian side of the Ukrainian-Russian border at other border points in areas adjacent to the Donetsk and Luhansk regions.

“This position of the Russian side can not be regarded otherwise than conducting coherent policies to further hide from the international community the obvious evidence of the direct involvement of Russia into the conflict in Donbas, including through the supply of heavy weapons, military equipment, regular troops and mercenaries” – said the Foreign Ministry.

Ministry of Foreign Affairs stressed that the consent of the Russian side to expand the mandate of the Mission at other checkpoints along the Russian-Ukrainian border in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions have demonstrated a real willingness of the Russian Federation to implement in full its obligations under the Minsk agreements.
