Ukraine denies radioactive leak on Zaporizhzhya nuclear plant

KIEV Tue Dec 30, 2014 2:46pm EST
(Reuters) - Ukrainian authorities denied on Tuesday a report in pro-Kremlin media that a radioactive leak had taken place at the Zaporizhzhya nuclear plant, Europe's largest.
Life News newswire published documents which it said came from Ukraine's emergencies ministry and showed that a leak at the power plant had led to a spike in radiation over the past two days exceeding permitted norms by 16 times.
Three officials from Ukraine's emergencies ministry, energy ministry and the plant itself told Reuters there had been no leak.
"The plant works normally, there have been no accidents," said an energy ministry official. The officials could not comment if documents published by Life News were authentic. Reuters was not able to verify the documents independently. [...]
Reuters often has this kind of reports. They contain a grain of truth, but plays it down or distorts it.
Now there is some kind of a truce, but it is reported that European soldiers are being sent to the area of the Donetsk Airport: _http://fortruss.blogspot.ca/2014/12/nato-began-soft-invasion-of-donbass.html?m=1
Alexey Zoteev - Cassad.net said:
One of my friends got a call from a friend living in a prosperous European country and hysterically reported that the husband of her relative, a soldier of one of the divisions of NATO, was sent to Ukraine, changed into Ukrainian uniform and delivered to the location of Donetsk airport. She also reported that according to this soldier, almost all who, under the pretext of rotation, comes to the airport - are Europeans and Americans. NATO troops are taking this strategic object under their control.
Also, during the conversation, the reason for the closure of the three largest airports of Ukraine - Zaporozhzhye, Kharkov and Dnepropetrovsk became clear. NATO transport aircraft landed on the runways of these airports, and unloaded military equipment, military units and ammunition. Confirmation of the delivery to Eastern Ukraine of "help" from NATO I also received from other sources - local residents in these cities confirmed that they had seen European and American equipment on the territory of the flight terminals. NATO began a soft invasion of Donbass. Dressed in Ukrainian uniform European and American military are taking up key positions on the front lines.
I have no other verification of this information, so you decide what to think.
In addition, the US has a plan to transfer used equipment from Afghanistan to Ukraine: _http://groundreport.com/russia-lawmaker-furious-over-decision-by-the-us-to-transfer-military-equipment-and-hardware-from-afghanistan-to-ukraine/ However the Afghanistan people are not in favour of this idea: _http://thetruenews.info/2014/12/29/afghanistan-us-plans-transfer-military-gear-ukraine-kabul-official/
To be ready for more war, the Kiev government is planning to pay Blackwater/Academi for military training: _http://pontiactribune.com/russia-says-ukrainian-nazis-pay-blackwater-training/ and _http://itar-tass.com/en/world/770048 but apparently many of those sent to the front by the Kiev government do not wish to fight: _http://fortruss.blogspot.fr/2015/01/ukrainian-deserter-to-novorossia-only.html
Ukrainian Deserter to Novorossia: "Only a Third of Ukrainian Army Wants to Fight, and They are From Western Ukraine"
Perhaps that is why the training is to take place near Lvov in Western Ukraine. And still, that leaves us with some 35% who love to kill like this guy: _http://www.globalresearch.ca/ukrainian-soldier-explains-why-he-enjoys-killing-russians/5422443
I wrote that Kiev will pay Academi, but will they, or is the money coming from a different source: _http://www.opednews.com/populum/pagem.php?f=Black-money-air-flights-fr-by-Jerry-Collins-Black-Budget_European-Command_European-Union_Money-150102-948.html

NATO Mission starts operating in Ukraine © Фото: AP Photo/Olivier Matthys
The mission will promote NATO in cooperation with the authorities and the media in Ukraine
The Lithuanian diplomatic mission in Kiev is the NATO Contact Point Embassy in Ukraine from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2017, local media reported. The Lithuanian Foreign Ministry explained that the mission will focus especially on work in Ukraine’s regions.
I don't know if the following is a result of this NATO cooperation, but isn't it interesting that the Kiev side is mining the beaches bordering to the Azov sea according to _https://www.facebook.com/groups/IOUCO/permalink/688355177944206/ Also Kiev firebombed a coal mine on December 28th according to _https://www.facebook.com/groups/1456741614555531/permalink/1594223904140634/ who has it from a youtube. To the accusation of firebombing, the Kiev side said that it was the militia that had bombed themselves. Really? Today, I read there were four violations of the "truce". Kiev and NATO apparently adhere to the ethnic cleansing program through there actions.
Earlier in the thread, we have discussed the possibility of creating a new Israel in Ukraine, though at the moment the flow is not into Ukraine but away from it: _http://en.ukraina.ru/news/20150102/1011693940.html
The flow of Ukrainian Jews wishing to resettle in Israel has grown so much that the Israeli authorities had to adopt a special centralized immigration program After Odessa’s equivalent of the Katyn Massacre, Ukrainian Jews are seriously considering their prospects in the new Ukraine. Repatriation was more like an evacuation. This will require a special operation and special aircraft.
ews are leaving almost all the regions of Ukraine. If in the first months mostly residents of eastern Ukraine fled, now many families are moving from central Ukraine, including Kiev. All interested persons gathered in Kiev and two aircraft took them to Tel Aviv, a total of 437 people. An Israeli government delegation greeted the passengers at Ben-Gurion Airport.
Well, the above people have the contacts or the money to leave, some don't and life is not nice in Ukraine as the Los Angeles Times managed to report _http://www.latimes.com/opinion/op-ed/la-oe-golinkin-ukraine-humanitarian-crisis-20150102-story.html
Op-Ed Kiev's brutal strategy in eastern Ukraine
[...]
Unfortunately, recent statements by Col. Oleksiy Nozdrachov, Ukraine's chief of military and civilian cooperation in eastern Ukraine, show disturbing signs of Kiev's attitude toward this crisis. Where the U.N. sees a looming humanitarian disaster, Kiev may see an opportunity.
Kiev's strategy, as outlined by Nozdrachov in USA Today, is to continue withholding government services from the rebel-held areas in hopes that increased suffering will turn the local population against the separatists. “This shows the population in the occupied territory that the situation under the Ukrainian government is much, much better,” Nozdrachov said. In addition, an Amnesty International report posted Dec. 24 said pro-Kiev “volunteer battalions are increasingly blocking humanitarian aid into eastern Ukraine in a move which will exacerbate a pending humanitarian crisis.”

That video is in Ukrainian, but you don't need much to get the gist of what it is about. In any case. I am sure that group in Lvov is not alone in feeling that way.
