    State Border Service said the military threat from the unrecognized Transnistrian Moldovan Republic.

    In an interview with "Channel 5" said the chairman of the State Border Service Viktor Nazarenko.

    "The threat from Transnistria is both military and, say, technology-border ... We believe that this area is threatening about border security," - he said.

    This Nazarenko emphasized that the military threat in this part of the frontier is much smaller than the eastern frontier.

    Much more significant is the problem for border smuggling from Transnistria food and illegal activities of local residents.
    Also difficult in terms of border security at the north and south areas of the border. Continue reading.

    The Main Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Committee determined that the crime was punishable under Russian Criminal Code articles "Murder and attempted murder" and "Use of banned means and methods of war."

    According to Russian investigators, on May 26 at about 20:15, unidentified persons from among servicemen of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and National Guard, while fulfilling knowingly criminal orders from higher commanders and officials of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry and National Guard, carried out aimed artillery shelling, from heavy armaments with the calibers of at least 122 millimeters having high incapacitating properties, of civil infrastructure facilities which are not military targets in the city of Gorlovka.

    Residential buildings on Planyornaya and Ozeryanovskaya streets, as well as adjacent territory, got into the firing area. As a result, three people, including a girl born in 2004, were killed. Another two people, including a two-year-old child, were wounded.

    "Investigators believe that the attackers pursued the goal to kill an ethnic group of Russian-speaking persons residing in Donbas. They were acting in violation of the protocol on termination of the use of arms in the southeast of Ukraine and a memorandum to it, as well as provisions of a number of international conventions, including the Convention on the Rights of the Child," Markin said.

    He said Russian laws allow the Investigative Committee, in line with part 3 of Article 12 of the Russian Criminal Code, to bring to criminal account foreign nationals who committed a crime beyond the borders of the Russian Federation if the crime is aimed against a Russian national, as well as in cases envisioned by an international treaty of the Russian Federation if the foreign nationals were not convicted in a foreign state.

    Maybe that was the idea all along. Because all the other options just don't make sense. Odessans should brace themselves then.

    What makes you think that Moldova even wants to be part of this mess?
    One way or the other Kiev is doomed no matter where they start their collective suicide....

    Moldova has a democratically elected (by Moldovan standards), pragmatic government that has maintained cordial ties with Russia and avoided making any provocations; but nonetheless it is very much a EU-supportive one owned by oligarchs with financial ties to Western institutes, and will do what the West tells it to do.

    I have my doubts (albeit it's possible) that Porko would take any risks in regards to blockading Pridnestrovie w/o at least Western approval/complicity, and if he has that, than that same approval can take the form of an order to Moldova's government; and it appears that this is exactly what's happening - Moldova and the Ukraine are very much co-ordinating their latest moves against the Pridnestrovian territory.

    For Moldova this does make some sense outside of simply going along with the EU's plans - in fact its possible that it and the Ukraine are going at it independently.
    This is because the popularity of the ruling govenrment there is plummeting - and support for Custom's Union entry now exceeds support for EU entry by a good margin, if the latest figures are to be believed.

    Pro-Union with Romania rallies have been getting bigger and more active lately, as Moldova's government steps up its activities and uses its instruments. The constitutional block on advocating any foreign policy course other than EU entry can also be employed in the future against the pro-Russian parties.
    Meanwhile, reigniting the Pridnestrovian conflict, or at least bringing it to the forefront of affairs - would enable the current government to unite its people against a foreign threat, and take their minds off its poor performance and broken promises.

    This has been posted today on topwar, "Letter from a former Russian friend". It is fictional and is to all Ukranians who have allowed themselves to be brainwashed with lies about what is happeneing now, what has happened in the past and about who they really are, Russians. It is strong and emotional and brutally honest, so much that some , a few, do not like it, but perhaps because they do not understand, or have little knowledge or do not like the idea of liberating Kiev eventually. Russian only, but I put it thro google and it is not too bad, the sense of what is written is preserved. It is too open their eyes and shame them, but they will not read....

    Media: Lenders have offered Ukraine to defer repayment of debts for 4 years
    Today, 15:18

    The international lenders in Ukraine, including the largest of them Franklin Templeton, Kiev offered to restructure the debt through an exchange for new paper and extend the repayment period up to 2025.

    According to Bloomberg , citing a source familiar with the offer, the group, which owns about 8.9 billion debt Ukraine has submitted its proposal on May 9. It proposes to begin a seven-year repayment of Ukrainian debt since 2019

    Lenders argue that the plan is consistent with the rescue package of the International Monetary Fund.

    According to calculations the source, the proposed extension of the bond will allow Ukraine to save $ 15.8 billion over the period until the end of 2018.

    "This is a concrete proposal which will help Ukraine to get through the next few years without the need for the de facto default. The script will allow Ukraine to access the bond markets this year" - said the head of research at Emerging Markets Commerzbank AG Simon Quijano-Evans, in London.

    The publication notes that while the Finance Minister Natalia Yaresko believes that lenders "need to" take a loss of about $ 20 billion in debt, bondholders believe such a scenario is arbitrary and politically motivated.

    Recall, May 27, Finance Minister Natalia Yaresko said that negotiations with creditors of Ukraine in the near future may move from the stage of consultations between the two parties hired advisers to block direct meetings.

    Meanwhile, on May 28 the President Poroshenko signed adopted by the Parliament on May 19 laws to the Cabinet of Ministers to introduce a moratorium on the payment of debts to external commercial creditors. Continue reading.

    Ukrainian police official openly calls to extermination of civilians in Donbass We would like the entire world to see the true face of Ukraine, the officials of which are openly, shamelessly publicizing their cannibal, totally Nazi ideas! Here is the freshest example. These are, just imagine, the words of a police official, and the task of police is to safeguard law and order and protect the rights of citizens, stated by the Constitution! Illya Kyva, executive head of the General Board of the Ministry of the Interior of Ukraine in the Donetsk region, wrote on his page in Facebook: "I appeal to public organizations and activists of the city of Kiev: block the traffic of buses that belong to "Sheriff-Tour" Ltd along the route Kiev-Donetsk and Donetsk-Kiev, as they facilitate the spread of the terrorist scum and plague all over the territory of Ukraine!!!! Р.S. Were that up to me, I would shoot these travellers to the DPR, the lovers of referendums and Ukrainian POWs parades ... Only the tough stand of the society will force Donbass to sober up!!!! There are no shades and hues any longer! We only have OUR SIDE and the ENEMY!!! Only this way we will conquer this plague!!!!!" Foreign readers should know, that every person travelling across the demarcation line should apply for a special pass issued by the Security Service of Ukraine in the 10-day term. At times it takes several weeks to obtain such a pass. Thus, people who have close relatives in the territory under Kiev control, have to go through real ordeals before they can see their near and dear. And only those people are allowed to pass, who had been checked and double checked and have been recognized as having no connection to "terrorists". And still, Kiev junta craves their extermination. What is it if not genocide? wrote:

    Ukrainian president visits Donetsk region

    http://tass.ru/en/world/797515

    KIEV, May 29. /TASS/. Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has arrived on a working visit to Donbas, the Ukrainian leader’s press service said on Friday. "Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has begun a working trip to the Donetsk region," the statement said. Poroshenko has pledged to pay 5 million hryvnia ($240,000) to the areas controlled by Kiev in the Donetsk region, the 112.ua TV channel has reported. Speaking to the employees of a machine-building plant in Kramatorsk, in eastern Ukraine, Poroshenko reiterated that he would hold a dialogue "only with those persons who will be elected by the Donetsk region citizens at the upcoming local polls." Poroshenko told the 8th Kiev security forum on Thursday that he would hold a dialogue only with "the other Donbas." Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk also said Kiev was ready to talk to the DPR and LPR leaders "only when they are behind bars." The Donetsk republic’s envoy at the Minsk talks, Denis Pushilin, expressed concerns over this Ukrainian leader’s statement saying it comes ahead of the June 2 meeting of the Contact Group. "Poroshenko by his statements denounces his signature that he put in Minsk upon the guarantees of Germany and France and announced plans to comply with the Minsk agreements. Now he says that he is not going to do this," Pushilin said. wrote:

    Kiev’s Repression of Anti-Fascism in Odessa

    http://www.counterpunch.org/2015/05/27/kievs-repression-of-anti-fascism-in-odessa/

    by ERIC DRAITSER

    There is a common misconception in the West that there is only one war in Ukraine: a war between the anti-Kiev rebels of the East, and the US-backed government in Kiev. While this conflict, with all its attendant geopolitical and strategic implications has stolen the majority of the headlines, there is another war raging in the country – a war to crush all dissent and opposition to the fascist-oligarch consensus. For while in the West many so called analysts and leftists debate whether there is really fascism in Ukraine or whether it’s all just “Russian propaganda,” a brutal war of political repression is taking place. ...read more at link....

    Moldova has a democratically elected (by Moldovan standards), pragmatic government that has maintained cordial ties with Russia and avoided making any provocations; but nonetheless it is very much a EU-supportive one owned by oligarchs with financial ties to Western institutes, and will do what the West tells it to do.

    I have my doubts (albeit it's possible) that Porko would take any risks in regards to blockading Pridnestrovie w/o at least Western approval/complicity, and if he has that, than that same approval can take the form of an order to Moldova's government; and it appears that this is exactly what's happening - Moldova and the Ukraine are very much co-ordinating their latest moves against the Pridnestrovian territory.

    For Moldova this does make some sense outside of simply going along with the EU's plans - in fact its possible that it and the Ukraine are going at it independently.
    This is because the popularity of the ruling govenrment there is plummeting - and support for Custom's Union entry now exceeds support for EU entry by a good margin, if the latest figures are to be believed.


    Pro-Union with Romania rallies have been getting bigger and more active lately, as Moldova's government steps up its activities and uses its instruments. The constitutional block on advocating any foreign policy course other than EU entry can also be employed in the future against the pro-Russian parties.
    Meanwhile, reigniting the Pridnestrovian conflict, or at least bringing it to the forefront of affairs - would enable the current government to unite its people against a foreign threat, and take their minds off its poor performance and broken promises.

    Definitely agree that Moldovan government might gain from reigniting conflict in Transdnistria but potential losses far outweigh the gains. If their popularity is so low they risk being kicked out for agreeing to such (very colossal) mess.

    On top of everything Transdistria is not the only part of Moldova that is not too thrilled with the fact that they are part of Moldova. Lots of moving parts over there.

    They may be coordinating actions with Ukraine but these days it would be safer to coordinate with North Korea than with Ukraine.  

    Which brings us back to Ukraine. Like you said, if they do anything over there that means they will be engaging Russian soldiers. Real ones.
    And that means that Russian pilots will be ticking items of the target list over East Ukraine within couple of hours.
    And that would be just the first couple of hours... Twisted Evil
