Interesting. Yatseniuk is popular among the western politicians. But in Ukraine many want him to go. Including Tymoshenko, of course.
My opinion - doing an impossible job under impossible conditions. But overall doing very well.

Forecast for the next week is amazing. Warm. It should be minus - both low and high for the day. But lows may be 8 or 10 degrees above normal.
That will save a lot on the gas useage. Not to mention broken pipes. I was without water again last weekend - frozen pipe in the town.

Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Wednesday 27 January [Ukrainian sources]  Empty Accident: Leningrad NPP reactor blew up

Wed Jan 27, 2016 12:41 pm
Sabotage - Tіhaya night Pastore - said Arseny Petrovich mate coalition and raised his arm pressure level radioactive water used to cool the reactor of Leningrad NPP. - Yeah - handed Bloody Pastor and setting the timer on the bomb twenty minutes, he added, - A cloud precisely to Moscow will go? - So shanovny not hvilyuytesya all pіde on Moskovіyu - said Arseny took out a penknife and scribbled on the tank "PTN FSO." Effects Morning in "zombilende" started out as something unusual. Russian President woke up very early, felt a sharp pain in the groin area. Going into the bathroom he washed his face and scratched both the left front hoof. - Somehow I do not care today, look, - he said the head of the left and right styanuv pants, began to consider out of nowhere appeared headed eagle rather orlёnka (approx. - Ed.). - Yes, and we still act in the Federation Council - said the right arm of the Russian president on his neck and began to comb the tail. Moscow alive. Yesterday Ukrainian diversion "KVN" to bear fruit: Bactrian traffic police as usual stood at intersections and their shestisisechnye wife sent their children to school, swim along the Moskva River. Office workers trudged straight on the road, trying to cling to the horns of the exposed wires and trasovschitsy knowhow offered sex services - oral pleasures shark teeth. The building of the Federation Council was Lavrov and Putin waiting nervously smoked, flicking ashes on the Moscow students ran past. Since its scales could not stand the light of day, he occasionally nervously popukival, creating around him a cloud of gas. At the meeting of the Federation Council slid all Moscow "fleas, lice and nits" and settled on those present were waiting for a miracle. Putin, pounding hooves nervously pulling double-headed orlёnka opened the meeting. His left head pushed slurred speech and the right, sweet grunting orally to enjoy herself at the podium. - Comrades, in Moscow was something strange - we are beginning to push the head of the Russian wonder-guarantor - FSE West is to blame Comrades They will not "bend" Russia, introducing us to the visual confusion! We refuse to believe that we will see and believe what we want! - He ended his speech with the two-headed president and wagging his back on oral self-satisfaction, stumbled toward the exit. After such performances guarantor Muscovites lived happily: fins began to wash before eating, teeth get fleas from the fur fly in flocks in the church on Sundays, sniffing asses on the streets, to smooth the scales every morning and do much more useful things. After all, as he said some very smart classic: Mind Russia not to understand!

Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Wednesday 27 January [Ukrainian sources]  Empty Ukraine Expands Trade Routes, Bypasses Russia By Alexander J. Motyl

Wed Jan 27, 2016 1:02 pm
Ukraine is taking two important steps toward expanding its ties with the global economy.

The Beskyd-Skotarske train tunnel in the Carpathians is being widened from one track to two, thanks to funding provided by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and the European Investment Bank. The project will more than double the speeds at which trains can travel through the tunnel as well as double the number of trains undertaking the journey. Since 60 percent of Ukraine’s current trade with countries to its west goes through the tunnel (originally built in 1886), the result will be a vastly enlarged capacity for imports and exports with the European Union, which already is Ukraine’s largest trading partner and with which Ukraine now shares a free trade zone. The work is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2017; trains will start using it by mid-2018.

Even more impressive is Ukraine’s participation in the Trans-Caspian international transport route that extends from Georgia, through Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan, to China, thereby bypassing Russian territory. The first trial run of a Ukrainian train consisting of 10 cars and 20 40-foot containers began in mid-January in the Ukrainian port city of Illichevsk. It was transported by ship to Batumi, Georgia. Thence by train to the Azerbaijani port city of Alyat, where it was loaded onto a ferry and crossed the Caspian Sea to Aktau in Kazakhstan. Some cargo will stay in Kazakhstan; some will go on to China, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Turkmenistan. Naturally, Chinese and Central Asian goods will also flow westwards.

The journey to Aktau is supposed to take about nine days. The train will run three times a week starting in March. Ukraine has high hopes, planning to transport up to 10 million tons of cargo annually via this route.................

Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Wednesday 27 January [Ukrainian sources]  Empty Donbas must acquire permanent special status, Russia’s negotiator Gryzlov says

Wed Jan 27, 2016 3:15 pm

Russia insists that the Donbas must be legislatively granted permanent special status in line with the formula proposed by German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier.

Russian envoy to the negotiations on the settlement in the east of Ukraine Boris Gryzlov told reporters on Wednesday, Censor.NET informs citing Russian Interfax.

"The voting on the Constitution should be strictly linked to the simultaneous adoption of the amendments to Articles 1 and 10 of the law on the special status to make it permanent according to the 'Steinmeier's formula'," Gryzlov said.

"Revision of the amendments to the law on the special status must be agreed upon by the Contact Group," he added.

At the same time, according to Gryzlov, it is necessary to enshrine in the Constitution that "the powers of individuals elected in the Donbas under the separate law will not be terminated in 2017, as the constitutional reform envisages for the entire Ukraine."

He also noted the need to find a legal way to ensure that the transitional provisions of the Ukrainian Constitution would "make reference to the current version of the Articles 2-9 of the law on the special status and Articles 1 and 10 renegotiated by the Contact Group."

"This formula should be captured in the Constitution of Ukraine," Gryzlov concluded.

Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Wednesday 27 January [Ukrainian sources]  Empty "DPR" offers special view of constitutional amendments, while Ukraine rejects all claims

Wed Jan 27, 2016 3:48 pm
Terrorists of the so-called "DPR" have come up with their own view of Ukraine's constitutional reform.
The Ukrainian side in the Minsk talks said, Censor.NET reports. Their conditions are as follows:

"1. Securing a "DPR" quota in the parliament of Ukraine under Ukraine's Constitution;

2. Granting the right to coordinate all adopted laws as well as the right to veto decisions in foreign policy;

3. Full amnesty of all those involved in the conflict, including the release of "DPR" POWs and subversive agents detained in Odesa, Kharkiv, Kyiv, and other cities;

4. Providing broad economic (the right to trade with Russia), political (the right to elect its own parliament, government, and president), and cultural autonomy (protection of the Russian language) of the Donbas region;

5. Granting the right to form their own police, security services, judiciary, prosecution, border guard service, and other agencies without an approval by the Kyiv authorities."

As reported, the Ukrainian side has so far rejected all the claims with negotiations being underway.

For starters, the Russian language has never had an issue, ANYWHERE in Ukraine. And they're not going to build their own government. It won't happen.

And to veto foreign politicies! LMAO!!!!!!

Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Wednesday 27 January [Ukrainian sources]  Empty Foreign currency credit users storm bank in Moscow, demand to give away Crimea. VIDEO

Wed Jan 27, 2016 9:12 pm
Raiffeisen Bank debtors of loans in foreign currency have broken into the main office of the financial institution in Moscow and demand allowing paying off their loans at the rate of 40 rubles per dollar.

Censor.NET reports that borrowers declare insufficient funds to pay loans under actual currency exchange rate (around 78 RUR/USD). However, the officials of the credit institution offer debt restructuring or sale of collateralized property. One of the desperate women has proposed to return Crimea to Ukraine to have the opportunity to avoid economic sanctions that led to the plunge of the ruble.

"Our Constitution provides for equality in civil rights throughout the territory of the Russian Federation. If Ukraine holds a referendum on joining Russia, we would not be able to afford it! Let's give this Crimea back already! I have nothing to live upon!" she said.

Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Wednesday 27 January [Ukrainian sources]  Empty Russia refuses to probe sharp rise in soldiers’ deaths during war in Donbas

Wed Jan 27, 2016 9:21 pm
The grave of the Pskov paratrooper whose death was reported by Lev Shlosberg, then denied by somebody claiming to be the deceased man’s wife.

Russia’s chief military prosecutor has refused to investigate the death of 159 Russian soldiers who are believed to have been killed in Russia’s undeclared war against Ukraine. The prosecutor’s office asserts that checks were carried out into all deaths from the beginning of 2014 to mid-2015, and no infringements were found.

This view was categorically not shared by Sergei Krivenko and other members of the President’s Human Rights Council. On Dec 8, 2015, they formally demanded an official answer as to the circumstances in which 159 Russian soldiers had been killed. The human rights activists pointed out also that there had been a sharp increase in such unexplained deaths during the second half of 2014. This coincided with the first publicized reports of soldiers’ deaths in Donbas, as well as a major escalation in Russia’s direct military involvement in eastern Ukraine.

Russia does not make it easy, with no official information on military deaths having been published since 2010. It is known that the increase in number of contract soldiers, as opposed to conscripts, has had a positive impact on the number of suicides, murders and fatal accidents. That, however, only accentuates the dramatic increase in deaths during the second half of 2014.

According to Krivenko, there were 108 reports of soldiers’ deaths from July to December 2014, with the region where the person died named in only 28. In 80 cases there is no mention of cause of death. In 72 there was mystery over the region. In only 38% of the cases was there any indication that the prosecutor had initiated an inquiry.

Krivenko says that he asked for information about each specific soldier. Instead he received vague assurances that checks had been carried out, that all was fine and that no criminal investigations had been launched.

They will be able to investigate the deaths of specific soldiers only if the soldiers’ families agree to this.

The problem is likely to be in pressure clearly being brought to bear on these families. Soon after Lev Shlosberg reported the death of two paratroopers from Pskov, journalists trying to report on the deaths were set upon by unidentified individuals and Shlosberg himself sustained a savage attack. The initial reports of the men’s death on social networks were removed, and there were even attempts by one of the men’s wives to claim that her husband was alive. It is not known whom she handed the phone to on that occasion, but it was not her husband whose grave can be found where it was reported.

Direct pressure placed on relatives is compounded by legitimate concerns shared by all, including journalists, that they can now be accused of divulging ‘state serious’. As reported here, on May 28, 2015, Russian President Vladimir Putin issued a decree which classifies all information about Russian military losses during “special operations in peacetime”, without providing any definition of ‘special operations nor any clarity as to what information is to be concealed.

Putin’s decree was challenged in the court by a group of nine activists, lawyers and journalists. The group included prominent human rights lawyer Ivan Pavlov, Lev Shlosberg and Svetlana Davydova, a mother of 7 arrested earlier on charges of ‘state treason’ for informing the Ukrainian embassy about Russian soldiers being sent to Donbas.

They argued that Putin, and his predecessor Boris Yeltsin, had exceeded their powers by classifying information about military losses. Russia’s Constitution clearly states that the constitutional right to freely seek, receive and circulate information can only be restricted by federal law, not by a presidential decree.................

Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Wednesday 27 January [Ukrainian sources]  Empty Russians forced to lie to themselves and not by choice

Wed Jan 27, 2016 10:41 pm
For decades if not centuries, Russians have been deceived and fenced off from reality and the truth. Many blame Russians themselves, but I don't, as we must see how they're trained to think on a daily basis, let alone the daily brainwashing they go through.

Put yourself in the position. If you're told constantly with false information that Stalin was a good man with no other source to prove otherwise, you're going to believe it. Then you have paid propagandist feeding you false information to corroborate what was told to you by your own government it solidifies the false proof in your mind.

We all know what they're fed daily, as we see it in Kremlin owned news sources. We do have a problem with that, by having weak uneducated minds that don't bother to seek the truth, then believe what they spew out. How many have seen the likes of Walter Duranty in current times. Shaun Walker, Roland Oliphant and Graham W. Phillips, just to name some. Very well paid to push falsehoods, which they know good an well is false. And recently there's been reports that a well known American news anchor's going to work for the Russia Today propaganda outfit. To lower themselves that low, they must be paid very well, to give-up all sense of decency. Russians are bombarded with this false information as far back as we know about Russian history during the Romanov period till current.

What choice do they have than to think the way Russians think about the west? They report that the viruses are being spread around by the US. And sad to say, many Russians will think of it as bible.

Upgraded technology's changing all that slowly and word of mouth from Russians that are getting the truth via media sources they didn't have decades ago. Many Russians are now living abroad. I personally know some in the US that got here and overstayed their visas. Why? They didn't want to go back to have their minds controlled by force. They had the nerves and smarts to get themselves out. Now these Russians I know are legal immigrants. Over 100,000 Russians use overseas schooling to get out. Others use family visits to get out and never go back. Many are dealing with ramifications that their family members left behind will receive, not only from the government but from their own friends, neighbors and family members that see them as traitors. Why? Because they've been brainwashed. If it wasn't for current technology, this would've never happened and life for Russians would be worse than it is now. Death toll would be higher from many factors. I personally don't have anything against Russians as I know why they think the way they do, from no fault of their own. We se all the time journalists being snuffed out for telling the truth and facing head-on the Kremlin. We know what happens to them. Recently, The Kremlin's higher ups are being killed for either not producing or concern from others in high echelon that the person is a liability. They can say all they want about the west, including the trolls we always run into, but I for one know what's really behind it. It can be from having weak minds or enough propaganda that ANYONE would believe it after some time.

As for the Russian language, Many despise the language due to affiliating it with the government. Should we hate Cubans that speak Spanish because they come from a badly ruled country? Should we dislike Germans speaking German because of the history they have with Hitler? Ridiculous! That's how narrow-minded people can get, then they'll blame me for thinking this way. It's like a KKK supporter hating anyone that's not white. Would it make me a bad person because I speak some Russian, all knowing how much I despise the Kremlin and their ideology? I'd rather speak Ukrainian, but when speaking to someone on a daily basis that was also forced to speak Russian for decades and its a daily custom for them, I'm not going to force them to speak another language. I'd be doing the same thing that was done to them for decades. It's just a language not an ideology. I have friends that are ultra-nationalists from Ukraine. They can't stand to hear anyone speaking Russian. That's their things, but we'll continue to love our friendship because we both know where our hearts are at.

I want to see all Russians able to live the lives we have the chance to live. Many complain on our own national issues. Live in Russia, then review how your life is. Who's got it made? So don't ever think your government's the worse as some do. Live in Russia and even in Ukraine, which it'll take many years before it sheds that soviet skin. Then you'll see how great you have it. Russians should be given the same opportunity. That's why we must support the fight against the hatred for a society that's been in shackles for a long time.

Demonstrations have increased, people storming banks from frustration, single demonstrators being kicked that are protesting against the scourge they have running the country, organizations in opposition having their leaders killed in the open public. The heat is building up against the old Romanov desires Putin is reaching for. He's now fighting a battle that might last for some years, but by the way he's running into global roadblocks, he might just end his own life as Hitler attempted or he can be snuffed out by his own oligarchs that are losing their pants because of the greed for power the leader they thought would bring them riches is costing them. The west is now standing up to him more than ever before. They're bringing his economy to its knees and nothing will save him. If the west doesn't take him out, his own people will. There are many issues he currently has that won't go away and will cost him daily. The way things are going, he'll just might die a pauper.
