Ukrainian - Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Tuesday 25 October. [Ukrainian sources] Empty A Frozen Conflict Better for Ukraine than What Putin Wants and What West May Accept, Piontkovsky Says

Tue Oct 25, 2016 9:00 am
A Frozen Conflict Better for Ukraine than What Putin Wants and What West May Accept, Piontkovsky Says

Ukraine would be far better off if it were left with a frozen conflict in which Russia openly occupied the east than with the solution Vladimir Putin wants and some in the West seem ready to accept: a reunited Ukraine in which Putin’s forces would dominate not just the east but all of Ukraine, according to Andrey Piontkovsky.

In an interview with Nataliya Dvali of Kyiv’s Gordon news agency, the Russian political commentator who has been forced into exile by the Kremlin, says that Kyiv must continue to point out to the West that Putin is a war criminal and that he will never pull his forces out of the Donbass, give Ukraine control over its borders, or cease his plans to dominate all of Ukraine.

Putin’s goal, which has remained unchanged since the beginning, he continues, “is not the annexation and occupation of particular pieces of territory but control over all Ukraine, a strategic task he has pursued at various times with the use of various tactical measures” (gordonua.com/publications/piontkovskiy-putin-ne-dlya-togo-navoroval-250-mlrd-chtoby-prevratitsya-v-radioaktivnyy-pepel-155726.html).

Now that his direct military aggression has not worked and his nuclear threats have backfired, Piontkovsky says, “Putin wants not to freeze the conflict in the Donbass but to insert a cancerous tumor inside of it which will block reforms leading to a European model of the state … [as well as] to preserve military and political control over the occupied territories.”

Piontkovsky says that the Kremlin’s goal is “to make bandits like …Motorola legal political players in Ukraine and deputies of the Verkhovna Rada. That is how [Putin] interprets the Minsk agreements.” And as long as Putin is in power, “Russia will never pull its forces out of the Donbas and never hand over to Ukraine control over its borders.”

Were it to do so, the Russian analyst says, such a step would destroy “the Kremlin’s last hope to subordinate all of Ukraine to itself.”

Ukraine had to sign the Minsk agreements given Russia’s military pressure and Western insistence, but it needed to do so to get a ceasefire because it was obvious to everyone even at the time that Putin had no plans to fulfill his side of the bargain on any of the other items in those accord, Piontkovsky says.

Before talking with Moscow about political issues, he continues, the West and Ukraine must demand that Moscow “fulfill the main points of the Minsk agreement,” something Putin hasn’t done and won’t do. Given that, “the only thing that one should demand from states trying to be peacemakers – the US, Germany and France – is to insist on the ceasefire’s continuation.”.................

Chairman of the French Total staff CEO of Total Christophe de Margerie killed by drinking the Moscow airport

Ukrainian - Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Tuesday 25 October. [Ukrainian sources] 34_main

Falcon plane crashed in Moscow on the night of October 21, 2014

Interstate Aviation Committee (IAC) has published a report on the causes of the crash Falcon in Moscow's Vnukovo airport on board was CEO of Total Christophe de Margerie.

It is stated in the report of IAC .

"The most likely disaster was due to a combination of factors: the absence of documents that define obligations of employees airfield (head of operations at the airfield emergency vehicles and drivers) to proceed with the loss of control of special cars and / or orientation on the airfield; lack of effectiveness of measures to reduce the risks of unauthorized trips to the runway, allowing for the airfield, including the presence of two intersecting runway; lack of proper control by the head of the airfield changes in the body is detected alcohol on work at the airfield: no report service police department and request Snowplow Driver with loss of visual contact with the snow; breach airfield manager changes the order of emergency vehicles, their departure for a closed runway takeoffs and landings-2 without asking permission and taxiing controller ", - stated in the report.

In addition, one factor was a violation of medical staff JSC "Airport Vnukovo" established requirements during medical monitoring drivers of emergency vehicles in the formal (only exterior grade) of compulsory medical examination of drivers after the changes, which significantly increased risk of alcohol use by drivers during business hours. Effectiveness adopted in Vnukovo airport management and control systems aimed at reducing the risks associated with the performance of his duties spetsavtomobiley drivers intoxicated, insufficient.

Before the tragedy also resulted in lack of drivers snowplows, performing work on the flight zone, the possibility of continuous listening radio communications at a frequency controller starting, loss of driver snowploughs, the body is detected alcohol guidance during the work on the airfield and ineffective organization of the subsystem inspection and control of the airfield, which led to air traffic control professionals, not trained to work with this system.

Other factors were the lack of documents that define the technology of Service Professionals ATC Vnukovskoho TSOVD recommendations for setting subsystem inspection and control airfield, including management warning lines and alarm (as a result, workplace managers SDP and DWP all alarm disabled), so that radar information and light alarms are available to specialists; non-performance controller technology of a rejection of actions to prevent the unauthorized departure to closed for takeoffs and landings runway-2 emergency vehicles; that the manager-trainer and manager-trainee who performed under the supervision of direct ATC controller instructor, not recorded double unauthorized departure runway snow at work, including after the issuance of the crew permission to take off; lack EPA operator (airline «Unijet») during takeoff aircraft; rejection crew action to stop gathering information on CES about "car crossing the road."

The absence of a decision to terminate the take-off was caused probably suboptimal psycho-emotional condition of the crew (long waiting time in an unfamiliar airport of departure and the desire to fly home as soon as possible), which could make it harder for the crew assessment of the actual level of danger in detecting early snow after takeoff; design feature of the aircraft Falcon 50EX in the management of nasal wheel, which results in the performance of the second take-off the pilot to transfer need active management to stress the takeoff stage.

As a result of investigation recommendations to improve safety.

Recall that on the night of October 21, 2014 aircraft Falcon, which was carrying was president of Total Christophe de Margery, faced snowblower at Vnukovo airport. Where Margery and three crew members were killed.

The prosecution in a criminal case brought against the driver of Snow machines Vladimir Martynenko, his boss, a senior shift engineer Vladimir Ledenovu and head of flight dispatchers and Roman Dunayev Alexander Kruglov and Hope Arkhipov.
