Russia in December conducted a successful test of a new anti-satellite missile.

According to Cenzor.NET, CNBC reports citing sources that are familiar with a classified intelligence report from the United States.

"Russia conducted another successful flight test of its new anti-satellite missile system last month," the report said.

According to sources, the PL-19 Nudol system, designed to fight satellites, was twice tested in 2018.

The last launch was held on December 23. An anti-satellite missile flew 17 minutes and 1864 miles before successfully defracting the defeat zone.

US intelligence suggests that the RF plans to use such missiles against satellites for communication and shooting in the lower orbit of the Earth.

"We are in the middle of negotiations. I cannot give you all the information as some of it is classified, but we are talking about significant reinforcement of our army and security system. It is about raising the level of the Ukrainian armed forces to that of NATO countries," Klimkin said commenting on Ukraine’s chances to get new lethal weapons according to the law allowing the Ministry of Defense to purchase military equipment abroad.

Klimkin hailed the adoption of the law authorizing security structures to buy military goods without involving Ukroboronprom (state owned defense industry concern. – Ed.).

Ukraine News. Saturday 19 January. [Ukrainian sources] Empty Putin's official rating collapsed to a level 15 years ago

Sat Jan 19, 2019 12:13 pm
Putin's official rating collapsed to a level 15 years ago

The rating of Russia's citizens' trust in the unchanged leader of this country, Vladimir Putin, in January 2019 fell to record in the last 15 years 33.4%

This is evidenced by data from the State All-Russian Center for the Study of Public Opinion (Russian VTsIOM).

According to sociologists, at the end of December Putin was trusted by 36.5% of the population, but in the new year the rating fell by more than 3%. However, it still holds first place among politicians.

The second place on the trust of the Russians has been retained by Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, who is called the most likely challenger to the presidential chair in the event that something happens to Putin. However, its rating also dropped from 16% in December to 13.7% in January.

Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has also lost his confidence and ranks third, his rating dropped from 11.7% to 9.3%.

At the same time, Putin's opponents, based on the data that they have at their disposal, assess the true rating of Russians' confidence in the Chinnoggo president in real numbers. According to the ideologue of the failed revolution of 11.05.17, Vyacheslav Maltsev, who now lives in France, leader of the "People's Power" movement (formerly "Art Training"), supports 8-10%.

Ukraine News. Saturday 19 January. [Ukrainian sources] Empty In Russia, they explained why Putin benefited from a terrorist attack in Magnitogorsk could be beneficial because of the fall of the rating of Russian President Vladimir Putin

Sat Jan 19, 2019 12:20 pm
In Russia, they explained why Putin benefited from a terrorist attack in Magnitogorsk could be beneficial because of the fall of the rating of Russian President Vladimir Putin

An explosion in a Russian house and a minibus with three dead in Magnitogorsk could be beneficial because of the fall of the rating of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

This was told by the Russian financier and blogger Slava Rabinovich "Apostrophe".

"It is possible to think as much as anyone could have been in favor of a tragedy in Magnitogorsk. I can imagine that the FSB really did undermine Russia in 1999. There were clear motives there, and it is very similar to the fact that it was the FSB, and in the case of Magnitogorsk, I I do not see the motive, "he said.

Rabinovich also expressed his theory of why the tragedy could be beneficial for the head of Russia.

"However, if we assume that we are dealing with the most extreme terrorist group frozen throughout history - that is, the KGB-FSB - I can imagine that because of the fall of Putin's ranking, the FSB again undermines Russia to create a similar fear of terrorist attacks on the population , which, accordingly, will again say that horses do not change at the ferry, even if there is a complete economic collapse and chaos in Russia due to social explosions, "explained the Russian financier and blogger.

Ukraine News. Saturday 19 January. [Ukrainian sources] Empty Lukashenko is no longer against returning the US ambassador to Belarus

Sat Jan 19, 2019 12:33 pm
Lukashenko is no longer against returning the US ambassador to Belarus

On January 10, 2018, the Minister for Foreign Affairs of Belarus, Volodymyr Makey, during a telephone conversation with Washington, informed the State Department about lifting restrictions on the number of American diplomats in Minsk

The first was reported by the American magazine Foreign Policy , which it called "a diplomatic breakthrough."

The publication says the head of the Belarusian Foreign Ministry spoke with US Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs Wess Mitchell on Thursday, January 10. Let's remind that on that day Alexander Lukashenko held a meeting on questions of economy and relations with Russia and declared that if the Russian leadership continues to follow its course on the rough accession of Belarus, it will lose the only ally in the western direction.

"This is a big step, it's the beginning of a thaw," said an unnamed American official for External Policy.

According to the portal TUT.by , on January 14, Macay officially confirmed the fact of his conversation with Mitchell and its contents, quoted in the American press.

"If once in the past decisions were taken that affect quality, the level of our cooperation, and if we see that the conditions for reviewing these decisions have matured, then we must make these decisions," he emphasized.

At the same time, Macay noted that in Minsk they understand "what role the United States plays in the world".

As the Minsk opposition newspaper Nasha Niva reminds us , Mitchell arrived in Minsk in October 2018. In the same month, he said: "Today, national sovereignty and territorial integrity of border states, such as Ukraine, Georgia and even Belarus, is a reliable bastion that protects against Russian neo-imperialism."

certificate

Diplomatic contacts between the Republic of Belarus and the United States were minimized in 2008, after the United States imposed sanctions on Belarus and the Lukashenka regime for violating human rights. Alexander Lukashenko then accused the American embassy in Minsk of subversion.

Minsk has withdrawn the ambassador from Washington, has limited the number of American diplomats in Minsk to five. To date, they were 32, and this is the standard size for US missions in a country of such size as Belarus.

The last 10 years of the embassy of the two countries are headed by temporary believers.

"No one resists": Russia's ambassador to Minsk on the absorption of Belarus

Belarus is ready for transition to "the next level of integration with Russia"

This was stated by Ambassador of Russia in Belarus, Mikhail Babich, in an interview with Russia-24.

"At the present stage, our partners have posed the question that they are ready to move to the next level of development of integration - there is such a fashionable term now... This is a good idea, we have been going on a long time before," he said.

But, according to Babich, this level of integration involves solving a number of tasks "from the unification and harmonization of legislation - customs, tax, tariff, excise, credit, our economic policy, military-technical policy, industrial policy." And for this, Babich added, it is necessary to adopt a number of decisions envisaged by the 1999 union treaty.

When asked whether the Belarus-based "closer integration" rests, Babich replied:

"One can not say that someone resists, because we are just starting to do this thing in detail."

certificate

Mikhail Babich, a FSB officer, a former paratrooper , served from the USSR KGB troops and troops from 1986 to 1994, but took part in hostilities (although the official biography does not contain information about them).

Since 1994 has been engaged in business, and since the late 90's - went to the civil service. He was the instigator of numerous corruption scandals: about 2 billion rubles from the sale of European and American humanitarian aid by the management of Rosmysomoltorg; about gross violation of official duties and access to state secrets; on promoting the sale of the commercial structure of one of the distilleries and the illegal creation of the representation of the governor of the Ivanovo region in Moscow (the latter almost never ended with his arrest).

In 2001, Babych headed the puppet government of the occupied Chechnya for three months - where he resigned, again, with a scandal.

In 2016, the Russian Foreign Ministry nominated the candidacy of Makhail Babich to the Russian ambassador to Ukraine. However, our state refused to agree on this appointment.

In Minsk, he was appointed to ensure the final seizure of Byelorussia by Putin's Russia.

Putin allows German and French experts to monitor Kerch Strait, - Lavrov

Ukraine News. Saturday 19 January. [Ukrainian sources] Censor_news_big3

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Friday that President Vladimir Putin had agreed to a proposal by German Chancellor Angela Merkel for German and French experts to monitor the Kerch Strait near occupied Crimea.

"Over a month ago, Chancellor Merkel asked President Putin to allow German specialists to visit the Kerch Strait and see how the passage through those waters was being conducted with due account of security regulations. [...] President Putin granted the request right away," Lavrov said at a press conference after talks with German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas, Censor.NET reports citing Interfax-Ukraine.

Merkel asked some time later for French specialists accompanying German ones, and Putin also agreed to do that, he said.

According to Lavrov, he had received a proposal from Maas "which 'wraps' this simple trip into a certain document that requires coordination with Ukraine."

"We said honestly that if our colleagues were interested in doing what President Putin had promised to Chancellor Merkel, they could do so today, tomorrow, any time. But if the idea is to create some political procedure, in which the Ukrainian side is entitled to making certain decisions, we are running the risk of repeating the situation, which the Normandy format found itself in with the Steinmeier formula," Lavrov said.

Heiko Maas added that the free passage is guaranteed; all parties confirm that.

"Of course, we will continue discussions in furtherance of the agreements reached by President Putin and Federal Chancellor Merkel in Buenos Aires regarding the possibility of the documentation of the guarantee of free passage by Germany and France," Maas said. "Of course, we will continue discussions in furtherance of the agreements reached by President Putin and Federal Chancellor Merkel in Buenos Aires regarding the possibility of the documentation of the guarantee of free passage by Germany and France," Maas said.

"According to preliminary data, the accident occurred over the Tatar Strait. Two Su-34 jets vanished from radar screens close to the inhabited community of Nelma in the Sovetsko-Gavansky District. They presumably collided in mid-air," the source reports.

That said, a search operation is underway.

Earlier, a TASS source reported both planes had been flying from the sea when they collided in mid-air. The crew of one aircraft managed to eject, while the second plane will probably be able to return to the base. However, the fate of both crews still remains unknown.

Ukraine News. Saturday 19 January. [Ukrainian sources] Censor_news_big3

Activists of the NGO "Solidarno Molod" held a rally on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the signing of the Tymoshenko-Putin gas contracts.

It is reported by Censor.NET with reference to the press service of the BPP.

"We came to the office of Batkivshchyna today to remind everyone about bonded gas deals in 2009. 10 years ago, Yulia Tymoshenko agreed with Putin about the price of gas for Ukraine, which caused a long-term dependence of our people on Russia.

Following the Tymoshenko-Putin contracts, the Kharkiv agreements were subsequently signed, which continued the bases of the Russian fleet in the Crimea - and the Crimea was annexed by Russia. Through these contracts, Viktor Yanukovych abandoned the Association Agreement with the EU - and Ukrainians came to the Revolution of dignity.

We believe that Tymoshenko should bear political responsibility for these consequences, "said Dinara Habibullaeva, chairman of the Solidarity Youth NGO.

Ukraine News. Saturday 19 January. [Ukrainian sources] Empty When an agreement on gas with the Russian Federation was signed in 2009, no institution knew the terms of this contract, - Yushchenko

When an agreement on gas with the Russian Federation was signed in 2009, no institution knew the terms of this contract, - Yushchenko

Ukraine News. Saturday 19 January. [Ukrainian sources] Censor_news_big3

When a gas contract was signed, no institution in Ukraine knew the conditions under which this agreement was signed.

As the Cenzor.NET about it on the air "directly" told the third president of Ukraine Victor Yushchenko.

"Then Tymoshenko signed an agreement on the principle of" take or pay. "Ukraine has not globally chose the volumes of gas for which dozens of discussions are ahead. And in fact, this is an economic catastrophe for our budget, for our business, for our chemical industry and for metallurgy. after all, if you take after four years of this treaty, any prime minister who came to power in an alliance with other political forces did not dare to comply with this agreement, "Yushchenko said.

The losses of citizens of Ukraine from the gas treaty with Russia in 2009 exceeded $32 billion, - Naftogaz.

According to him, Ukraine was forced to go and take gas either in Austria, whether in Poland, Germany or Italy. Anywhere, just not in Russia.

"Because these agreements, of course, led us not only to economic bankruptcy, but the most important thing is the threshold of economic and security policy, which continued to bring political security, military security and other things." When this treaty was signed, approximately weeks 3-3.5, no institution in Ukraine knew the conditions under which this agreement was signed, but the Government, which was offered the concept of the deal, rejected it, but despite the government's position, it was signed, "added the ex-president Of Ukraine.

He noted that this page is shameful in Ukrainian history.

"Of course, in 3-4 weeks, because of the work of the Security Service, my conditions were under the conditions on which this agreement was signed. The conditions were so terrible that, firstly, the government did not accept them." This should be remembered. signed contrary to the framework legislation of the intergovernmental government, which regulated the procedure for signing this agreement. Secondly, this issue was worthy of consideration, urgent consideration on the Security and Defense Council of Ukraine.

But, unfortunately, I had to convene the National Security and Defense Council four times because of the absence of the prime minister. And when the Security Council became a well-known report from the Security Service, under which conditions Ukraine signed it, it immediately arose to form an investigative commission on this issue so that it set out the steps that were guided when signing this agreement, "Viktor Yushchenko added.

He noticed that it was already somewhere in February, perhaps in March 2009, all of whom were living in elections, including the prosecutor's office of Ukraine. The Security Service has been pursuing a principled position on this issue, but its position was not enough at that time. That is why the special commission did not have time to finish this investigation by autumn because of the boycott of this issue in the government.

Yushchenko said that a special commission of inquiry had been formed in parliament, and that the commission had been working for a year. She formulated her conclusions, in fact, similar to those that were expected.

"And remind - which?", - the journalist specified.

"What this agreement is outside the law, it violates the framework agreements between the intergovernmental government of Ukraine and Russia, it does not belong to the competence of the prime minister or NJSC Naftogaz to sign the terms and conditions of transit, and this is exclusively the competence of the government. This norm has been violated. And, indeed, this whole question then stirred up the political plane, and a lot of political debate was introduced that, in fact, did not allow law enforcement agencies to consistently carry out their proper work. The society should understand and condemn such practices of working against Ukrainian interests, and what u in fact collaborationist work properly and it needs at least a moral level to be measured. This is very important,"- he said.

Ukraine News. Saturday 19 January. [Ukrainian sources] Censor_news_big3

A man has long collaborated with an aggressor state, but only performed small orders. When he was offered to commit a terrorist attack, he was afraid and now collaborates with the investigation.

The detainee's brother is a former activist of the Kulikovo field, the current coordinator of the pro-Russian underground in the Odesa region, reports Censor.NET, referring to the SBU press service.

A man regularly traveled with his brother to the occupied Crimea, Moldova and Transnistria.

"During these journeys, Odesa initially received simple orders, such as the transfer of fees to moderators of anti-Ukrainian groups in social networks, the creation of" bots "and other small tasks. In the meantime, he was acquainted with other residents and curators of the anti-Ukrainian center and gradually prepared for a "feat" - says in a statement of the SBU.

When Odesa was offered to carry out a terrorist attack on the Odesa-Brody oil pipeline, he was scared and returned to his homeland. He is now actively collaborating with the investigation.



"It is worth saying that this story is typical. By manipulating the ideas of the" Russian world, "the enemy pushes our compatriots into crimes against Ukraine, and, using them, gets rid of them, because the fate of the pawns does not disturb anyone", - sum up the SBU.

Ukrainian political prisoner Pavlo Gryb stated that in court, instead of Tatiana Yershova, who, according to the prosecution, was inclined to terrorism, was another girl, and correspondence on her behalf was led by law enforcers.

January 18 Paul Gryb read out a statement which noted that existing in the file translation from Ukrainian language correspondence with Tatiana Ershov "very poor quality" and no screenshots correspondence, reports "Kavkazkyy node", reports Cenzor.NET.

All this "has formed a certain bias in the prosecution and the court," said Gryb.

"In January 2017, on the site of VKontakte, on the ground of being captured by a foreign cartoon series My Little Pony, I met a resident of Sochi of the Krasnodar Territory, called Victoria, who spoke with her in Ukrainian, Victoria said she had a friend Tatiana (Yershova)", - told Pavlo Gryb.

According to Mushroom, at the end of February 2017, Ershov offered him to switch to Skype. Gryb itself, according to his statement, did not want to register with Skype and decided to use the membership of his friend Pavel Kapinos, who also became friends in the social network VKontakte. "Access to the account was not only me, but also Kapinos," - said the political prisoner.

The Gryb is convinced that in June-August 2017, on behalf of Tetyana Ershova, Russian power brokers talked to him.

From the Ershov's account, it was written that the FSB officers would allow her to go abroad after meeting with me in Gomel, my photo was demanded on her behalf, it was an operative legend, as I understood later. I am convinced that the real Ershov was on meetings in Gomel and in court.All of these things were done (by the siloviki) to deal with me, depriving the will and medical aid in the SIZO, "- said Gryb.

Recall Pavel's father Igor Gryb told about the kidnapping by the special services of the Russian Federation of his son in Belarus: "The FSB drove Paul to Gomel under the guise of meeting with a girl and detained ." Pavlo Gryb On August 24, 2017, went to meet with a girl, whom she had previously only communicated through social networks, to Belarus. After that disappeared.

When Igor arrived in Belarus, he was informed that his son had been wanted by the FSB RF. The border authorities of Belarus refused to inform their father of any information about his son. Paul's father is confident that the RF special forces carried out this operation in order to lure his son into Belarus and "put on him handcuffs for posts in social networks there." At the same time, the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine officially confirmed the fact that Paul Gryb crossed the border with Belarus.

On September 7, 2017, the director of the Consular Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Vasyl Kirillich said that 19-year-old citizen of Ukraine Pavlo Gryb, who disappeared in the Belarusian city of Gomel, is in the administration of the FSB of Russia in Krasnodar.

According to Russian media, investigators believe that Pavlova Gryb is allegedly a supporter of the extremist UNA-UNSO banned in Russia and suppose that he allegedly inclined a famous resident of the Kuban to blow up a homemade explosive device on the graduation line in Sochi.

Russia's interference in the 2019 election could be unprecedented

Ukraine News. Saturday 19 January. [Ukrainian sources] Censor_news_big3

Putin wants to show the world that he is ready to "go to the end" and will try to intimidate Ukrainians with maneuvers, provocations and the threat of a large-scale invasion.

Such an opinion in the article for "Mirror of the Week" was expressed by the first vice-president of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine Volodymyr Horbulin, according to Censor.NET, referring to "Interfax-Ukraine".

"Moscow's intervention in electoral campaigns is threatening to become unprecedented, there are a lot of things on the horizon, it's no accident that some of our Western partners do not risk forming bilateral cooperation plans until the end of the election," Gorbulin writes.

In addition, as the expert points out, among potential candidates "on the fingers of one hand," one can list people capable of thinking and calculating the situation at least two steps forward.

"The danger is that among potential candidates for the presidential and future parliamentary candidates are explicit or latent agents of Russia's influence, for which she is trying to create the necessary conditions for victory," the expert believes.

He also emphasizes the lack of expressive and clear programs in many of them, a strategic vision of the future, an adequate understanding of the international situation, awareness of the degree and nature of the threat from Russia.

The expert does not doubt that Moscow will make every effort to create a maximum chaos in the Ukrainian election, scaring large-scale intervention, maneuvering at the border, and possibly also carrying out bloody provocations.

"The current task of the Russian president is to demonstrate to the world that he is ready for any developments and, if necessary, will come to an end, but the insufficient internal readiness for a large-scale war does not mean the rejection of the escalation of tension and new attempts to destabilize the situation," says in the article.

According to Horbulin, for the leadership of the RF Ukraine, Belarus and Kazakhstan - this is the minimum program. The maximum program is not only the establishment of control over the Baltic states, the creation of zones of instability in Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, Greece, but also the formation of the same zones in Germany, France, central and southern EU countries.

"Is the West ready to go before the war as a real phenomenon that could unexpectedly and suddenly break into the European reality? No, despite the constant destabilization that Russia is doing." The divide between the states that realize the reality of the threat (Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia, Poland, Britain , Scandinavian countries, partly Slovakia and the Czech Republic), and in the rest it became even deeper. The simulation of the reactionary reaction is multilingual declarations, half-hearted resolutions, various conferences, "the expert said.

His lawyer insisted on keeping the suspect in custody. The Russians were assigned a psychiatric examination, he believes that all Christians deserve to die.

The decision to arrest a Russian citizen for a month has passed the Oslo district court, reports Censor.NET with reference to the Norwegian edition Aftenposten .

"At the interrogation, the boy said he intended to kill several people and that this was an act of terrorism," said the head of the Norwegian police service, Marie Benedict Bjornland.

According to her, a 20-year-old citizen of the Russian Federation from Bashkortostan arrived in Norway on January 17th through Sweden. Björland added that the police are checking its links with Islamists, but there are currently no other suspects. In addition, the attacker was not previously known to the Norwegian special services.

Even a Russian lawyer spoke in favor of keeping his client in custody. Ula Lund understands that his client is unbalanced. After all, he claimed that all Christians deserve to die, and confessed that he planned to carry out several more terrorist attacks in various European countries.

"Detention is necessary for the community, I say it, despite the fact that I am a defender", - said lawyer Ula Lunde.

"He threatens life and health. He can get out, take a bus and carry out a terrorist act," said the defender.

The court also appointed a psychiatric expert for the attacker.

A woman attacked by a Russian citizen is still in the hospital. Her condition is assessed by doctors as critical.

According to the legislation of Norway, a Russian person is threatened with up to 21 years of imprisonment.
