Georgia - Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Monday 10 October. [Ukrainian sources] Empty Putin Creating New ‘Cuban Missile Crisis’ in Europe, Sannikov Says

Mon Oct 10, 2016 8:32 am
Putin Creating New ‘Cuban Missile Crisis’ in Europe, Sannikov Says

“Western politicians must stop being complacent in their relations with dictators, stop hoping that their aggression will stop on its own, and take adequate measures in order to oppose this aggression,” Sannikov says. Otherwise, the future of Europe and the world is truly going to be bleak.

By Paul Goble for “Window on Eurasia”:

Oct 9 – By putting Russian missiles in Kaliningrad and conducting joint exercises with Belarusian forces, Vladimir Putin is creating a new “Cuban missile crisis,” one that threatens Europe and the world and that the Kremlin leader won’t end unless the West takes action to force him to back down, according to Andrey Sannikov.

The leader of the Belarusian opposition campaign, European Belarus, says that “the aggressive actions of Russia now can with complete justification be called ‘the Cuban missile crisis’ in Europe.” Putin has consciously escalated tensions and “one can even speak about preparations for military action,” he says (charter97.org/ru/news/2016/10/8/226350/).

There cannot be any doubt about what Putin is doing or about Alyaksandr Lukashenka’s participation in it, given that the Belarusian leader has declared that he is “prepared to throw the Belarusian army into the defense of the interests of Russia,” Sannikov says, a statement that has ominous implications in the current situation.

Sannikov argues that “European politicians must stop looking for signs of ‘a peace maker’ in the dictator Lukashenka and recognize that the territory of Belarus, thanks to Lukashenka’s regime, is completely part of Russia’s military plans.”................

Ukraine Detains Alleged Russian Spy

Ukraine's Security Service (SBU) said on October 9 that the man, whose identity was not disclosed, is suspected of attempting to obtain classified information by offering a large sum of money and Russian citizenship to a Ukrainian military officer.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Pavlo Klimkin said on October 9 that Kyiv is considering leaving the Commonwealth of Independent States, of which Russia and eight other former Soviet republics are members........

Georgia - Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Monday 10 October. [Ukrainian sources] Empty PACE refuses to amend rules in favor of Russia, - Ariev

Mon Oct 10, 2016 8:38 am
PACE refuses to amend rules in favor of Russia, - Ariev

The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe has refused to alter its rules of procedure in favor of the Russian Federation.

Petro Poroshenko Bloc MP, Head of Ukraine's Permanent Mission to PACE Volodymyr Ariev wrote on Facebook, Censor.NET reports.

"The Ukrainian delegation's protests expressed on the eve of the meeting of the PACE Bureau have yielded results. The bureau has abandoned the idea of backing an illegitimate and quick procedure of amending the assembly rules in favor of Russia. But still we can't sit back and relax. It has been decided to hold a debate in the PACE political groups to fathom out the general attitude. And, depending on the result, the issue will be introduced to the PACE Bureau on Friday," Ariev wrote.

He believes that in such circumstances the Russia's intended "blitzkrieg" turns out impossible.

"So they begin to talk about a political moratorium on the ban on the credentials of delegations (i.e. Russia), which is purely declarative and must be defeated during the meeting. However, it seems that the latest events in Aleppo and conclusions on the MH17 crash have somehow changed the PACE's approach not in favor of the Russians," the MP noted.

Earlier, Ariev said a number of influential PACE members were going to propose amendments to the rules of procedure of the assembly in order to reinstate Russia's delegation in the organization. In September, the leaders of three and deputy leaders of two political groups of the assembly visited Moscow where they "received an ultimatum from the Russian side for their return."

"This is the first time amendments to the PACE rules will be offered in the interests of one member state rather than the interests of the whole organization," the deputy remarked.

It is possible that illegally detained in Moscow Ukrainian journalist Roman Sushchenko exchanged for detained recently in exactly agent of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the General Staff of the Russian Federation. This opinion was expressed by the famous Russian lawyer Nikolai Polozov broadcast "112 Ukraine".

ua.112.ua In Ukrainian/український

Corrupt Tymoshenko would rather give away Dombas, to appease Putin, as she did when she agreed to a $400 gas price, back when she was PM.

Little does she tell you the stats on the improvements in Ukraine's economy have risen, since Yanukovich (another criminal she once agreed to share powers with, which is a FACT). Today alone, Ukraine was considered now the #1 wheat exporter. Pensions are going to be increased by end of the year, foreign interests in investments have increased. Roads are being improved throughout Ukraine, judges are now being convicted of bribes and corruption which you wouldn't see with her administration. She couldn't be trusted during the Yushchenko years and can't be trusted now.

Those who support her are bowing to her propaganda. If she wins, MANY will regret having voted for her. I'm QUITE familiar with her background, as many would prefer instead to listen to propaganda and not do their own research, probably from laziness and not wanting to know the facts.

Georgia - Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Monday 10 October. [Ukrainian sources] Empty Norway chews upon US troops' deployment in its territory

Mon Oct 10, 2016 1:10 pm
Norway chews upon US troops' deployment in its territory

The U.S. and Norwegian military are discussing the possibility of deploying U.S. troops in Norway under a rotating arrangement in the nation which borders Russia.

The defense ministry in Oslo said Monday, Censor.NET reports citing The Daily Star.

"Assessments have taken place within the military to look at the options for additional training, storage and this kind of thing," a ministry spokesman, Ann Kristin Salbuvik, told AFP, saying this was a "long-standing U.S. wish."

"It may be something that is carried out on a rotational basis... (but) there is no question of permanent deployment," she said.

Salbuvik stressed that ideas were still at an early stage and were being conducted by the two militaries and had not been broached at a political level.

The Norwegian newspaper Adresseavisen Monday said the Pentagon wanted to station 300 U.S. Marines at Vaernes, near the western city of Trondheim, about 1,000 kilometers (600 miles) from the Russian-Norwegian frontier.

Norway and Russia share a 200-km border in the Arctic Circle.

Norway became one of NATO's founding members in 1949, but -- in response to Soviet fears -- promised not to let foreign combat forces deploy on its territory as long as the country was not under attack or threatened with attack.

The commitment was subsequently revised so that foreign troops could carry out exercises on Norwegian soil.

Georgia - Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Monday 10 October. [Ukrainian sources] Empty Obama has epiphany on Russia , - The Wall Street Journal

Mon Oct 10, 2016 1:13 pm
Obama has epiphany on Russia , - The Wall Street Journal

It took seven and a half years for the Obama Administration to finally awaken to the nature of Vladimir Putin’s Russia, The Wall Street Journal writes in an Opinion article.

On Friday John Kerry said the Syrian and Russian governments should face a war-crimes probe for bombing civilians in Syria, while the U.S. intelligence community announced its belief that the Russian government is behind the cyberattacks on the Democratic Party, Censor.NET reports citing The Wall Street Journal's text in full below.

Many readers will recall how President Obama mocked Mitt Romney in 2012 for saying in a presidential debate that Russia is America's main adversary. And don't forget Mr. Obama's private whispers to then Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, caught unaware on a microphone, that he'd be ready to wheel and deal with Russia again after his 2012 re-election.

The wheeling has all been done by Mr. Putin, who returned as Russian President and proceeded to roll over Mr. Obama as if he were the president of Azerbaijan. The Russian's affronts include his conquest of Crimea and invasion of Ukraine, his military intervention in the Middle East, and now his attempts to influence the U.S. presidential election.

Secretary of State Kerry's moral dudgeon about Syria reflects his frustration at being gulled by the Kremlin's fake diplomacy one more time. But it won't amount to much because Mr. Obama's abdication in Syria has left the U.S. with little leverage on the ground. If Mr. Kerry took the war-crime issue to the United Nations, Russia and probably China would veto in the Security Council.

The meddling in U.S. elections is another matter. In an unusual joint statement Friday, the Department of Homeland Security and Director of National Intelligence said that "the U.S. Intelligence Community (USIC) is confident that the Russian Government directed the recent compromises of e-mails from US persons and institutions, including from US political organizations."

The U.S. spooks added that "the Russians have used similar tactics and techniques across Europe and Eurasia," and that given the "scope and sensitivity" of these efforts "only Russia's senior-most officials could have authorized these activities." Senior-most is a euphemism for Mr. Putin.

One question is why the Obama Administration has gone public with this hacking news now. One reason might be to warn Russia against dumping more of the U.S. documents it almost certainly has before Election Day. But then Russia's hacking habits are hardly new, and Mr. Putin is still harboring the national-security thief Edward Snowden. The timing suggests the White House may also be trying to help Hillary Clinton given her campaign's portrayal of Donald Trump as a Putin apologist. Sure enough, her campaign issued a statement linking Mr. Trump to the news almost on cue Friday.

A public declaration alone won't stop the Russians. Mr. Putin has little incentive to cease because he and Russia have never paid a price for their cyber thievery. Now that he's had an epiphany about the Kremlin, will Mr. Obama continue to let Mr. Putin get away with it?
