In the State Duma, Russia reacted to the words of Klimkin on weapons from the United States: It sharply destabilizes the situation

Ukraine News in brief. Sunday 19 November. [Ukrainian sources] Censor_news_big3

If the United States decides to supply offensive weapons to Kiev, it will "blow up" the situation on the Donbas.

According to Tsensor.NET, referring to RIA Novosti , said the head of the State Duma Defense Volodymyr Shamanov.

Earlier, the head of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry, Pavel Klimkin, said that Kiev would receive weapons from Washington, and in exchange will give American partners "experience in the fight against Russians". According to him, in addition to the anti-tank missile complexes Javelin, Kiev expects to receive from the US drone, counter-battery systems and means for cyberwar.

According to Shamanov, this sharply destabilizes the situation that has developed in the Donbass.

"The funds that he has listed all belong to offensive actions, and, of course, this will be very negative in all aspects of the process, and political and diplomatic ones, I'm not talking about the military any more," the MP said.

At the same time, Shamanov stressed that if Washington dared to sell such supplies, "this will be the most irresponsible step."

Ukraine News in brief. Sunday 19 November. [Ukrainian sources] Empty State Department accused Russia of disrupting Minsk treaties

Sun Nov 19, 2017 12:03 pm
State Department accused Russia of disrupting Minsk treaties

Director of Security at the US Department of State Michael Murphy said that the leadership of the Russian Federation is responsible for failing to comply with the Minsk agreements

"The obstacle to solving problems in Ukraine is Russia: Russia's behavior, Russian aggression." Russia does not implement the Minsk accords, created conditions that prevent the OSCE's SMM from carrying out their work, "Murphy said.

He noted that in the first place it is necessary to carry out not a political part of the agreements, but to create safe conditions for the residents of Donbass, Ukrinform reports.

Earlier, the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe recognized Russia as responsible for the implementation of the Minsk Agreements, first of all, on the ceasefire and withdrawal of troops in the Donbass.

The Committee also called for the full and prompt realization of Minsk and congratulated Ukraine on progress in reforms.

-Recall, Trump will be asked to allocate $ 47 million to Javelin anti-tank missiles for Ukraine.

This is not just about Javelin, - Klimkin spoke about the expected military assistance to the United States

Ukraine News in brief. Sunday 19 November. [Ukrainian sources] Censor_news_big3

Ukraine has no doubt that it will have access to modern defense weapons.

This was stated during a visit to Canada by Ukrainian Foreign Minister Pavlo Klimkin, according to Tsensor. NET, referring to Ukrinform.

"I am convinced that in the future we will definitely receive more defense weapons and military equipment. I can not say the exact date, but we are working on it," Klimkin answered on questions about possible supplies of weapons from the United States.

He stressed that it was not just about anti-tank means, but also about the droni, counter-tank systems and cyberwar.

" We need all of this equipment, logistic support and training, and it's mutually beneficial: we pass on our experience of fighting Russians, not just about a single element of the puzzle, not just about Javelin, but about everything, " the minister said.

He added that Ukraine "needs international support and will receive it".

on November 18, the US State Department spokesman said that the National Security Council decided at a meeting on Tuesday to give "green light" a grant allocation of 47 USD million to the Government of Ukraine for the purchase of American weapons.

As it was reported, last week the US Senate approved a bill on "US budget for 2018 for the needs of national defense," which contains a $ 350 million allowance to provide security assistance to Ukraine.

The draft law authorizes the provision of Ukraine with lethal weapons of a defensive nature and substantially broadens the parameters of US support for Ukraine in the security and defense spheres.

The document includes provisions that allow the US defense budget to be used to rehabilitate wounded Ukrainian servicemen in United States health facilities, to train and train Ukrainian health professionals in this area, and to enhance the capabilities of the Ukrainian air and naval forces.

The relations between the West and Russia are now more complicated than during the Cold War era - Matsurevich

Russia's frank aggression against Ukraine makes relations between Russia and the West more complicated than during the Cold War.

Such an opinion during his stay in Canada was expressed by the Minister of Defense of Poland Antony Macherevich, reports Tsensor. NET with reference to Ukrinform .

"I agree, there is no doubt that the current situation goes beyond what we can call the" Cold War. "There is an open war in Ukraine, an aggression that violates all the rules of the civilized world and disrupts the international order established in Europe," said Matsurevich, Answering the question, is Russia in a state of a certain war with the West.

According to him, Russia frankly shows that "it has given itself the right to change the borders of European states in this way."

Russia is clearly preparing for the war - the Polish Minister of Defense, Matsurevich

Ukraine News in brief. Sunday 19 November. [Ukrainian sources] Censor_news_big3

The recent large-scale Russian military exercises "West-2017" testify to the fact that the Russian Federation is preparing for offensive operations, not for defense.

According to Tsensor.NET with reference to Ukrinform, such an opinion during his stay in Canada was expressed by the Minister of Defense of Poland Antony Macherevich.

"The" West 2017 "training ended two months ago, which took place in the space between the Arctic Ocean and the Black Sea, and even included launching Iskander ballistic missiles that could carry nuclear warheads." The Russians were preparing not for defense but for aggression, "he said. - said Matsurevich.

He stressed that it was not a question of a new Cold War, namely the preparation for a heated confrontation.

"From this perspective, Poland must agree with the assumption that this is not a new Cold War but a preparation for a hot war," the defense minister said.

He also called the hybrid aggression of the RF unprecedented.

"Russian hybrid and cyberwar are being conducted not only in Europe, but also in the USA, besides, it is very aggressive and intensive. History has not had precedents for such determination," said Matsurevich.

According to him, this may be due to the "Russian tradition of misinformation" multiplied by modern technological capabilities.

"This is partly due to the synthesis of contemporary technical capabilities and the Russian tradition of misinformation as a fundamental means of warfare," the minister said.

The strategy of the Polish authorities is very similar to the Kremlin's plan, Tusk

Ukraine News in brief. Sunday 19 November. [Ukrainian sources] Censor_news_big3

President of the European Council, former Polish prime minister Donald Tusk, believes that the policies of the ruling party of Poland and Russia's policy have much in common.

This policy was written by Tvitter, reports Tsensor. NET with reference to Ukrinform.

"Anxiety: a sharp dispute with Ukraine, isolation in the EU, problems with the rule of law and the independence of the courts, the attack on the non-governmental sector and independent media - the PiS strategy or the Kremlin plan? They are too similar to sleep quietly," wrote Tusk.

In response, the head of the Polish government, Beata Shidlo, wrote to Twitter that Tusk, as the President of the European Council, had done nothing good for Poland.

"Today, using his office to attack the Polish government, he attacks Poland," she said.
