it looks like the war against Russia is fading into the background - just what Putin wants, perhaps.
The usual terror attacks by Putin, blowing up railroads, and the like.
The usual shelling.
McCain said that the ceasefire was a "fiction". Nobody can disagree with that.
Ukraine needs UN peacekeepers, but Putin and Lavrov obviously don't want that. They want war. And death.
From Shaun Walker's "DNR" guys.

What will happen to "Novorossia": the forecast for the Donbas (apostrophe)
http://apostrophe.com.ua/article/politics/2015-06-28/chto-budet-s-novorossiey-prognoz-dlya-donbassa/1895
The latest statement of the leader of the DNI Alexander Zakharchenko the imminent creation of the so-called "New Russia" is unfounded. As found "Apostrophe", the separatists have no specifics about the project, involving the seizure of new territories of Ukraine. However, the militants expect that the difficult economic situation in the country can contribute to the emergence of a new "people's republic." Experts do not believe in such prospects, but fear of new fighting in the Donbas.

Militants again talking about the creation of the project "New Russia", which involves the capture of new territories in the east and south of Ukraine. As previously reported, "Apostrophe", the relevant statements of the leader of the DNI Alexander Zakharchenko could become a pretext for the resumption of hostilities in the Donbas. According to senior analyst of the International Centre for Policy Studies Anatoly Oktisyuka separatists can really try to expand the self-proclaimed LC and DNI to the administrative boundaries of the Lugansk and Donetsk regions.

John McCain: The Russia-Ukraine cease-fire is a fiction [in English]

[Found the article referred to above in some Ukrainian papers]

Last weekend, I traveled with Sens. John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) and Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) to eastern Ukraine to meet with the courageous men and women fighting there for their country’s freedom and future. I arrived on a solemn day as Ukrainian volunteers grieved the loss of two young comrades killed by Russian artillery the day before. They had lost another comrade a few days before that, and four more the previous week. Their message to me was clear: The cease-fire with Russia is fiction, and U.S. assistance is vital to deterring further Russian aggression.

Crimea - Ukraine crisis. News in Brief. Sunday 28 June [Ukrainian sources] Empty Putin’s gas transit threats mere bluffing, expert says

Sun Jun 28, 2015 9:40 am
Pres Putin’s threats that Russia Gazprom won’t use Ukraine’s pipelines to pump gas to EU are empty, Vitali Portnikov writes on Radio Svoboda website June 27.

For several past months Gazprom officials have been talking to Ukraine and the world that the transit of gas via Ukraine would be stopped. The Turkish Stream pipeline, nodded by Putin himself, will turn Ukraine’s pipelines into a heap of rusty iron, Gazprom said.

Gazprom advised Europeans to start building connecting pipelines to the Turkish border as there won’t be any alternative to buy gas – except from the Turkish hub. When reminded by European Commission members that such radical change of supply routes is in disparity with theie current contracts, the Russians jeered openly, saying they don’t realize that Ukraine is out of the transit business.  

The reluctance of Europeans to build connecting pipelines to Turkey was political pressure on Russia to keep it dependent on Ukraine’s transit networks, Gazprom said.

And now, after so many breast-beating declarations, Pres Putin instructs Gazprom to hold talks with Ukraine on gas transit after 2019!

What’s happened? Nothing special. The bottom line is that the Russians cannot make do without Ukraine’s pipelines, and their threats were mere bluffing whereas the decision to build by-passing pipelines was political. From the economic point of view, it would be utter stupidity to throw away billions of dollars to build the alternative pipeline.

Gazprom, and Russia’s budget, is in dire straits now due to low oil prices, West’s energy policy and competition. What remains for Putin to do is to look with sober eyes on the realities and start waving away sad thoughts,” Vitali Portnikov wrote.

zik.ua

As I said a few days ago in an opinion, this is nothing but bullying and saber rattling.

Would Turkey want to deal with the same issues Ukraine has to deal with?

And now, after all this blowing smoke, they want to talk to extend the contract. I've passed a comment to current administration that they hold the ace and not to get into talks anytime soon. In 2019, there might not be any need for transporting, as Europe will have other sources. Four EU countries are already talking to Algeria regarding transporting energy to them. There have been talks of LNG ports in the Odessa oblast.

Ukraine has other sources of income they're very rich on. They also have the ability (once this conflict with the Kremlin is over) in the east to extract energy for them to export.

The rope around its neck has been loosened with the discounts Ukraine's receiving, although more bullying has popped up with Gazprom stating Ukraine doesn't deserve any discounts. What else will they say to make believe they're tough and have to be dealt with no matter what. Expect more blowing smoke.

Crimea - Ukraine crisis. News in Brief. Sunday 28 June [Ukrainian sources] Empty Slava Rabinovich on what’s written on wall for Pres Putin

Sun Jun 28, 2015 9:47 am
Putin will be forced to take the responsibility for the downed Malaysian Boeing in Donbas, Slava Rabinovich writes in Facebook June 28.

“I wonder, is Putin aware that now he is faced with a case for being incriminated in the downing the plane with 300 passengers. There will be a trial, a tribunal, a UN session, and conviction.

Then suits for compensation will follow. And this will happen very, very soon. And it will be impossible for Putin to play the fool like in the YUKOS shareholders $50-billion damage claim.

Then claims from Ukraine will follow.

It beats me how Putin cn remain at the helm after all this. Honestly speaking, I am not sure there is anyone among the leaders of Russia who realize what’s going to happen now,” Slava Rabinovich wrote.

[Put up about 5% - near record levels again.
I can't see why. Quite dry where I am. But I met with friends for lunch. They'd been near Kharkiv, and said that there had been a lot of rain there.
That might explain it. Also it is not quite as hot as normal. 24 most days at the moment.

Crimea - Ukraine crisis. News in Brief. Sunday 28 June [Ukrainian sources] Empty How Russian TV changed during Ukraine crisis

Sun Jun 28, 2015 3:02 pm
Most notably, this has seen a huge surge in anti-Western rhetoric and other inflammatory propaganda designed to demonise those seen as enemies of the Kremlin.

But it has also coincided with other less publicised changes in the behaviour of the main channels and the people who watch them. These have included a huge surge in the amount of news and current affairs programming, the marginalisation of important domestic issues, and an increase in the amount of TV people are consuming...........

Crimea - Ukraine crisis. News in Brief. Sunday 28 June [Ukrainian sources] Empty Yatsenyuk said that Ukraine will soon give up on Russian gas

Sun Jun 28, 2015 7:38 pm
Ukraine 10 years to meet their needs at the expense of its own gas production. This was announced on June 28 at the Ukrainian TV channels broadcast by Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk.

The head of government said that the economy is "one of the most energy-intensive in Europe." "We need to take the difficult and the only right decision on the tariff policy", - he said, noting that during the heating season for the population must be 21 billion cubic meters of gas, and the gas of its own production of 19 billion cubic meters.

"12 billion cubic meters of state-owned company produces" Naftogaz Ukraine "7 billion cubic meters - private companies that sell gas at market prices," - said Yatsenyuk. According to him, the cost of Ukrainian gas production is $ 100, and it costs the consumer 3.6 thousand hryvnia (about $ 170).

As the prime minister promises "some politicians" to reduce tariffs - untenable. "Previously, when rates were lower tens of billions of dollars went to pay off debt," Naftogaz "and not on the development of the company and the creation of new jobs. Consumers pay for it," - he said."

Our challenge is to increase its own production, reduce consumption, make energy-efficient economy ", - said the prime minister.
