The level of distortion of the attention by western medias with respect to all these other events is just sickening, and it has been for a long time, Odessa, Mariupol, Slavyansk, and in other places in Ukraine, where lives of comon people do not have importance for the sake of publicity or political ends of US and allies. What can one say, would it help to lit a candle? And that is just Ukraine, what about all the places where the US and NATO have bombed and created mayhem.angelburst29 said:

I do not see Poroshenko honoring a ceasefire? He's too busy moving heavy weapons from the Border and then moving them back.
Campaign against Minsk peace accords continues in Ukraine
http://tass.ru/en/world/836555
Many speakers say it's unacceptable to agree with terms imposed on Ukraine, and which only two months earlier were proudly referred to as "Poroshenko’s Plan" of settling the crisis in Donbas.
The Trilateral Contact Group on Ukraine comprising senior representatives from Russia, Ukraine and the European security watchdog OSCE on February 12, 2015, signed a 13-point Package of Measures to fulfil the September 2014 Minsk agreements. The package was agreed with the leaders of the Normandy Four, namely Russia, Germany, France and Ukraine.
The Package of Measures, known as Minsk-2, envisaged a ceasefire between Ukrainian government forces and people’s militias in the self-proclaimed republics in Donetsk and Luhansk starting from February 15 and subsequent withdrawal of heavy weapons from the line of engagement. The deal also laid out a roadmap for a lasting settlement in Ukraine, including local elections and constitutional reform to give more autonomy to the war-torn eastern regions.

Ukraine’s PM asks EU to set up fund for Ukrainian officials to drive them off corruption
http://tass.ru/en/economy/836816
In his words, the fund will be used to make extra payments to prosecutors, judges, government officials, customs officers who would carry out reforms and stay away from corruption schemes.
KIEV, November 16. /TASS/. Ukraine has called on the European Union to set up a special fund to pay premium to Ukrainian government officials to drive them off corruption.
"We need a helping hand in uprooting corruption. We would need an incentive fund for government officials to be set up in a span of two years," Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk said on Monday.
In his words, the fund will be used to "make extra payments to prosecutors, judges, government officials, customs officers who would carry out reforms and who would stay away from corruption schemes."
He said the root of the corruption among Ukrainian government officials was in their low wages. "If a government official is paid a wage of $100 we will never be able to do away with corruption," Yatsenyuk said at an anti-corruption conference.
He suggested an international anti-corruption mission led by representatives of the European Union and the United States be set up in Ukraine.
"Our suggestion is that our partners from the European Union and the United States delegate FBI investigators and EU law enforcers who would help Ukraine’s police to counter corruption and investigate corruption-related crimes," he said

Ukrainian Punitive Forces evicting civilians, occupying homes
http://fortruss.blogspot.ru/2015/11/basurin-uaf-evicting-civilians.html
Friday November 20, 2015 - Ukrainian punitive forces are forcibly evicting civilians in front-line homes, the deputy commander of the DPR Ministry of Defense, Eduard Basurin, stated to journalists today.
“We continue to receive information about the eviction of civilians from their homes in a fraudulent manner by Ukraine’s military units. This is happening in the residential areas of Ochertino, Kurdyumovka, Aleksandra-Kalinovo, and is done under the pretext of an alleged offensive being prepared by the DPR army,” he said.
According to the defense department representative, punitive forces are coming into houses, forcing people to collect their things, allowing only one bag, and are throwing them into buses which taken them in the direction of Artemovsk. The subsequent fate of these citizens is unknown.
Basurin suggested that punitive forces are pursuing two objective with such actions: firstly, they are placing personnel in comfortable conditions before the coming cold, and they can now blame the armed forces of the DPR in the case of a shelling of the residential area.
“Once again, we ask the OSCE and other human rights organizations to turn their attention to the facts of the inhuman treatment of the civilian population of Donbass,” the representative of the headquarters of the army stated.
LPR police: Azov has returned; UAF equipment on the move
http://fortruss.blogspot.ru/2015/11/lpr-police-azov-has-returned-uaf.html
The return of the so-called “territorial volunteer battalions” to the contact line might lead to tragic consequences for the UAF leadership. The deputy chief of staff of the People’s Police, Colonel Igor Yashchenko, stated this today in a briefing to Lungansk Information Center.
According to Yashchenko, the strengthening of Ukrainian positions on the contact line with volunteer battalions will lead to armed clashes between units of the enemy.
He also noted that Kiev, in violation of the Minsk Agreements, is continuing to supply UAF units on the line of contact with UAV’s, and that UAF units are continuing to increase the number of military equipment, including helicopter gunships, close to the front line. In particular, he noted that, according to the intelligence of the people’s police of the LPR, “approximately 160 units of military equipment and two Mi-24 and Mi8 combat helicopters have been detected in the south-eastern outskirts of Svatovo.”
In addition, on November 10, the deputy chief of staff reported the identification of cases of UAF military equipment being moved along the contact line and deep inside Kiev-controlled territory. In his words, “by such demonstrative actions, Kiev security forces are attempting to intimidate and disturb” the people’s police, which “are now on combat duty near the front lines” and “provoke them to use weapons in order to blame the LPR of armed aggression.”
In addition, residents of Stanitsa Luganska , not far from the village of Bolotnoe, reported the transfer of Ukrainian military vehicles to the residential area.

Ex-Ukrainian President Yanukovych to be Tried in Absentia in 2016
http://sputniknews.com/europe/20151121/1030510325/yanukovych-trial-ukraine.html
KIEV (Sputnik) — The trials in absentia of former Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych and his associates will begin next year, a Ukrainian parliamentarian said Saturday.
“The court gave the permission for convicting Yanukovych and his inner circle in absentia,” the leader of the Petro Poroshenko Bloc “Solidarity” party, Yuriy Lutsenko, said, as quoted by the party.
According to Lutsenko, the inquest will take place until late December.
Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko added later Saturday that the procedure of in-absentia conviction would only be temporary.
Yanukovych served as Ukraine’s president from 2010 until he was ousted by a military coup in 2014, almost a year before his presidential term was due to expire. The coup was preceded by months of large-scale protests in Kiev following Yanukovych’s rejection of a plan to deepen the country’s ties with the European Union.
In the beginning of 2015, Interpol placed Yanukovych on its wanted list after Ukrainian authorities accused him of embezzling millions of dollars in public funds, but later removed him.

US troops begin training Ukrainian regular forces
http://news.yahoo.com/us-troops-begin-training-ukrainian-regular-forces-201834683.html
Washington (AFP) - US military experts on Monday began training Ukrainian soldiers and special operations forces in the war-torn country, the Pentagon said.
US troops had already deployed in small numbers to Ukraine to train National Guard forces, but under a plan first announced in July they are now helping regular military units.
The US troops "will be training five battalions of active-duty troops and one battalion of special operations forces personnel," spokesman Captain Jeff Davis said.
The United States and its NATO allies have backed Ukraine diplomatically and have denounced what they see as Russia's intervention to support the rebels and prolong the destabilizing conflict.

This probably is much less than it might seem. While a "battalion" refers to about 300 to 800 personnel in most armies, the Ukrainians bend that a lot, such that they might have only 200 people in a battalion. So those "five battalions" might represent only about 1,000 troops. The US might assign only around 100 noncoms to conduct training for a group of that size.
It's not likely to make much difference, especially considering that the corrupt Ukrainian officer corps will almost certainly steal and sell any equipment provided by the US.

Ukraine president: Voting no on referendum is a “yes” vote for Putin
Posted on Nov 26, 2015 by Janene Pieters
Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko. Source: Wikimedia Commons
Ukrainian president Petro Poroshenko is very hopeful that the Netherlands will vote for the association agreement with Ukraine in the referendum in April next year. He stresses the importance of Dutch people’s right to express themselves in a referendum, though he calls the voting “corn on Putin’s mill”, in an interview with NRC on Thursday.
In the referendum next year, Dutch citizens will vote on the Association Agreement that the European Union closed with Ukraine. The agreement hasn’t been ratified by the Netherlands yet. A majority in the Tweede Kamer, lower house of parliament, believes that the outcome of the referendum should be adopted as the Netherlands’ stance, if the outcome is valid, the Telegraaf reported on Wednesday. The validity of the outcome is determined by a number of factors, including that a minimum of 30 percent of Dutch citizens should cast their vote.
President Poroshenko issued a cautious warning in the interview with NRC. “Everyone in the Netherlands needs to know that a vote in the referendum is a vote for or against the Ukrainians who gave their lives for European dignity and values”, he said. He added that the MH17 disaster improved the relationship between the Netherlands and Ukraine. “You can’t arrange it. It just happened. Within three hours there was an ocean of flowers at the embassy in Kiev, from people who had never been in the Netherlands. Pain unities peoples.”
The Ukrainian President also commented on the fight against terrorist organization ISIS in Syria and Iraq. He is not concerned that ISIS will shift the Ukraine issue to the background. He compared it to Adolf Hitler’s annexation of the Sudetenland. In 1938 Britain and France forced Czechoslovakia to cede Sudetenland to Germany. According to him, people then also said that Sudetenland was not as important. “But ultimately the price of this supposedly peaceful solution was very high, Europe has learned its lesson.” He added that he has no objection to Russia joining the coalition fighting against ISIS. “But only if they fight ISIS and ceases to support Assad.”
It's amazing how this man (Petro Poroshenko), who seems to have a very perverse understanding of "democracy," fwiw, and who has not really lived in a democratic country, having been born in the USSR and dealing with the aftermath of its collapse ever since it happened, is trying to teach the Dutch, who have at least a few generations of democracy under their belt, how to "express themselves" in a referendum. Sort of runs parallel to this quote I am just reading:
Those who have been interested in this subject may find it useful to watch this series of documentaries, called "Roses Have Thorns," which is practically a chronicle of the events with very little commentary, captured through the eyes and lenses of investigative journalists under the banner of a "Watchdog Media Institute".
If you want just to see for yourself, and have courage not to give in to immediate judgments, this is the perfect format. However, be warned: The series is very long, and contains disturbing images.
