Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Saturday 5 November. [Ukrainian sources] Empty Savchenko interested intermediaries acting in the field of procurement for the army

Sat Nov 05, 2016 9:22 am
Savchenko interested intermediaries acting in the field of procurement for the army

Savchenko said that according to experts, indirectly for the army carried out from 50 to 90% of purchases

MP Hope Savchenko sent to the Ministry of Defence for parliamentary inquiry, which asks her information " on the total number and amount of contracts concluded between the Ministry of Defence and the companies that are not direct producers of products or contracts not subject to provide services".

She wrote a page on Facebook.

"Shameful and is a known fact that the goods and services procured for the Armed Forces today mainly in intermediate companies that are not direct producers of goods and services. This is the reason for increasing the purchase price several times, causing corrupt acts of officials of the Ministry of Defence, responsible for procurement. At the same time, producers can not direct owners to obtain such an order, reads the request.

Savchenko said that according to experts, indirectly for the army carried out from 50 to 90% of purchases.

On the basis of the Defense Ministry, will be tested concept development and presentation of the draft Law of Ukraine, which would have banned the purchase of Ukraine in the defense sector (state enterprise " Ukroboronprom " and the Ministry) is not in direct producers, said the MP.

"Certainly, the new procurement system ProZorro, which also started working in the field of military procurement partially regulate the price of goods and services, but the problem purchasing through intermediaries - remains", - said Savchenko.

Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Saturday 5 November. [Ukrainian sources] Empty Moscow Officials Don’t Want to Admit There is an HIV/AIDS Epidemic in Russia

Sat Nov 05, 2016 9:44 am
Moscow Officials Don’t Want to Admit There is an HIV/AIDS Epidemic in Russia

By Paul Goble* for “Window on Eurasia”:

Nov 3 – In another example of the Putin regime’s apparent belief that if it doesn’t talk about something, that something doesn’t exist, Russian officials this week made it quite clear that they don’t want anyone, including medical professionals, to say that there is an HIV/AIDS epidemic in Russia.

On Monday, Russian news agencies reported that Yekaterinburg had declared there was an HIV epidemic in that city, but within a few hours, city officials said they hadn’t officially but acknowledged that in reality, the number of HIV infections there long ago passed that threshold (spektr.press/bez-obyavleniya-vojny-kak-v-rossii-oficialno-ne-priznayut-epidemiyu-vich/).

Approximately one in every 50 residents of that city is infected, with rates for younger age groups, newborns and certain districts even higher than that. Officials acknowledged that Sverdlovsk oblast as a whole ranks first in Russia in terms of the number of HIV infections registered per 100,000 population.

One reason rates in Yekaterinburg are higher than elsewhere is that officials, under city head Yevgeny Royzman, have tested a far higher percentage of people than is the case in most places, 23 percent as opposed to less than 15 percent. Were other places to be as proactive, their numbers would go up, and experts say there are at least 1.5 million HIV infected Russians now.

Tatyana Savinova, the first deputy chief of Yekaterinburg’s health care administration, says that “for us, doctors, there has been an HIV epidemic for a long time” given that “when on the territory of the city more than one percent of the population is HIV infected, this is a generalized stage of the dissemination of an epidemiological process.”

But she acknowledges that Moscow officials don’t want to declare an epidemic, despite the evidence. Consequently, more people will contract HIV and die when it grows into full-blown AIDS. Already more than 200,000 Russians have died from AIDS since the end of the 1980s.................
