Није ни чудо, пошто су неки и направили порнографију од целог сукоба, поготово политичари, који су се продали и дали државу у немилост свих, од нациста, до мрзитеља свега што су до јуче волели.

 

Sta drugo ocekivati od politicara?

 

 

 

Хунта затражила од Савета Безбедности УН распоређивање мировних трупа...

 

Наравно тражили су да мировне трупе буду из западних земаља...

To nece moci, ako bude UN trupa bice i Ruskih.

Osim ako putina nije bas briga za buducnost ostatka ukrajne, onda nece.

Osim ako putina nije bas briga za buducnost ostatka ukrajne, onda nece.

 

Тешко да ће икаквих УН трупа бити. Лавров је већ рекао да је овај захтев хунте очигледна намера да не желе да се придржавају договора из Минска, јер уместо да испуњавају договорено они траже нешто ново.

Ukraine Announces a Growing List of Casualties From Debaltseve Retreat

 

The Ukrainian military on Thursday said that the casualties in Debaltseve were substantially worse than initially announced, with at least 13 soldiers killed, 157 wounded, more than 90 captured and at least 82 missing. Witnesses said the number of dead would likely grow considerably higher.

 

Late Wednesday, the office of President Petro O. Poroshenko had said that at least six soldiers had been killed and 100 wounded in the hurried retreat from Debaltseve, a strategically important junction in eastern Ukraine, now firmly in the hands of pro-Russian rebels. The town fell after several days of intense fighting that continued after a cease-fire was to have taken effect at midnight Saturday.

 

In a statement defending his decision to order the withdrawal, Mr. Poroshenko said that 2,475 soldiers were safely pulled out, along with 200 military vehicles. Late Wednesday, Mr. Poroshenko urged the deployment of a United Nations peacekeeping force — an idea swiftly rejected by Russia.

The Ukrainian military said it had appealed to the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe for help in locating the missing soldiers.

 

With the accord they brokered last week to end the conflict seemingly in tatters, the leaders of Russia, Ukraine, Germany and France spoke by telephone on Thursday in an effort to find a way to impose an elusive truce.

 

None of the provisions of the peace accord, forged during an overnight negotiating session in Minsk, Belarus, have yet been carried out in line with the terms and timetable.

 

There has been no halt in fighting, with reports of battles not just in Debaltseve but throughout the eastern regions of Donetsk and Luhansk. A deadline on Tuesday for beginning the withdrawal of heavy weaponry came and went, with artillery still booming.

 

 

In the city of Artemivsk, where Ukrainian soldiers gathered after their retreat from Debaltseve, the harrowing human toll from the recent days of fighting was on vivid display.

 

Many soldiers were in a demoralized and drunken state. Shellshocked soldiers from the battle in Debaltseve wandered the streets through the day Wednesday, before beginning to drink heavily.

By Wednesday evening, gunshots were ringing out on the central square. One man stood, swaying, on the sidewalk mumbling to himself. Soldiers who had escaped from Debaltseve after weeks of shelling were commandeering taxi cabs without payment. It was not clear that all of them had been given places to sleep, and one group stood silently, shivering on a street outside the Hotel Ukraine.

 

And at Biblios, an upscale restaurant in Artemivsk, soldiers staggered about in the dining room, ordering brandy for which they had no money to pay, and then firing shots into the ceiling as other guests quietly fled the premises.

 

At a news conference in Kiev, the Ukrainian capital, Michael Bociurkiw, a spokesman for the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe’s special monitoring mission in Ukraine, read a long list of violations of the cease-fire agreement throughout eastern Ukraine, most of them involving artillery fire.

Among the violations he cited were numerous instances of mortar shelling east of the coastal city of Mariupol.

 

Mr. Bociurkiw complained that monitors had been unable to reach Debaltseve because they were denied access by the separatist forces controlling the town, and that monitors believed there were many civilians trapped there “in dire conditions.”

 

“The cease-fire has to be unconditional, there’s no exceptions,” he said. “As far as the special monitoring mission is concerned, we expect unfettered and safe and secure access.”

 

He added that the combatants should not pick and choose only those provisions of the cease-fire accord they wish to fulfill. “The Minsk documents are not a shopping list,” he said. “It’s one integrated whole.”

 

Mr. Bociurkiw also read from a statement by the chief of the monitoring mission, Ertugrul Apakan, a Turkish diplomat, who said he was “profoundly disturbed” by the events at Debaltseve, especially civilian casualties, adding, that he “condemned any attempts to create new facts on the ground and so to change the basis on which the latest package of Minsk measures were agreed on.”

 

On the telephone call on Thursday, Mr. Poroshenko’s office said that he had told his counterparts — Angela Merkel of Germany, François Hollande of France and Vladimir V. Putin of Russia — “Do not pretend that what happened in Debaltseve corresponds to the Minsk arrangements.”

 

His comments, however, only highlighted how Mr. Poroshenko and Mr. Putin have continued to view the conflict through vastly different lenses and often with completely contradictory assessments of the facts on the ground.

 

Although hours were spent in Minsk discussing the situation in Debaltseve, no agreement had been reached on what to do about the continuing siege of the town, which lies on a main highway between the cities of Luhansk and Donetsk, regional capitals and main separatist strongholds.

Separatist leaders had said that they did not regard the cease-fire as applying to Debaltseve, and Mr. Putin in his public comments appeared to accept that view, suggesting during a visit to Budapest on Tuesday that Ukraine should accept its defeat at the hands of former miners and tractor drivers. Mr. Putin has consistently denied that Russian military forces have participated in battles in Ukraine.

 

The Kremlin, in a brief statement after Thursday’s call, offered a positive assessment of recent days.

 

“It was noted that the measures approved by the contact group in Minsk helped allow a reduction in the intensity of fighting in Donbass and reduced the number of civilian casualties,” it said, referring to the region of eastern Ukraine where the conflict has been concentrated.

 

The Kremlin said the leaders had agreed that the foreign ministers of the four countries would begin consultations “in the nearest future” about carrying out the terms of the cease-fire — a further indication of Russia’s view that the peace accord was still on track. “The leaders emphasized the need to secure a sustainable cease-fire,” the Kremlin added.

Ukraine, in its statement, said there was agreement that the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, which is supposed to monitor the truce, should be given full support. It also said that some verification had begun, including in the area of the Donetsk airport, and in the towns of Horlivka, Pervomaisk and Shyrokyne.

 

Mr. Poroshenko also demanded the release of all prisoners, including Ukrainian soldiers captured in the area of Debaltseve. The Minsk accord had called for the release of prisoners held on each side, on a principle of “all for all.” The prisoner exchange was supposed to take place within two weeks after the pullback of heavy weapons.

 

For weeks after a failed truce agreement in September, the four leaders had issued positive statements even as fighting continued and the number of casualties increased, as if they might be able to impose the truce by force of will.

 

It was not immediately clear if the battle for Debaltseve, with the number of dead and injured still not tallied, was a final tussle over where to draw the cease-fire line, or a clear sign that the war would persist despite the Minsk agreement.

 

Highlighting its control over Debaltseve, Russia said on Thursday that it was sending a convoy of humanitarian aid to the town.

Ukraine crisis moves to new front as Kiev warns Russian-backed rebels may assault Mariupol

 

New fighting in east Ukraine as Russian-backed rebels launch assault on Azov sea resort village of Shyrokyne

 

Fighting raged in eastern Ukraine on Thursday, as fears grew that pro-Russian forces could open a new front in spite of European efforts to revive a shattered ceasefire.

Ukrainian officials said the Azov sea resort village of Shyrokyne, just a few miles from the strategic sea port of Mariupol, has now become the "epicentre" of fighting in the region.

The "liberation" of Mariupol is a long standing war aim of the separatists.

The renewed fighting came a day after separatist forces captured the strategic rail junction of Debaltseve, following an offensive launched in defiance of a ceasefire that came into force last weekend.

Thousands of exhausted Ukrainian troops withdrew from the town on Wednesday, in one of the worst defeats suffered by Ukrainian since the war began.

The colonel in command of the withdrawal told Petro Poroshenko, the president of Ukraine, that the last troops had left Debaltseve on Thursday afternoon. The Ukrainian army said on Thursday that 90 troops had been captured in Debaltseve and 82 were still missing.

Vladimir Putin and Mr Poroshenko agreed to a peace road map including a ceasefire and withdrawal of heavy weapons at marathon Franco-German brokered peace talks last Thursday.

However, the eruption of fighting on Thursday suggested the Minsk peace agreement may already be beyond repair.

Intense exchanges of artillery fire and rockets broke out near Donetsk on Thursday, despite relative calm there since the ceasefire came into effect on Sunday.

Correspondents in the city heard grad rockets being launched from the centre on Thursday night, and said the shelling was at an intensity unseen since the truce.

Meanwhile, clashes continued to the east of Mariupol, where Ukrainian and Russian-backed troops have been locked in a days-long struggle over Shyrokyne.

"Shyrokyne has been bombed practically round-the-clock. There have been 13 mortar and artillery attacks over the past day. Besides, the enemy has used tanks," said Anatoliy Stelmakh, a spokesman for Ukraine's military operation.

"There is no attempt to seize our positions so far. The rebels are bringing up reserves," he said.

Kiev fears Mariupol, a city on the Azov sea that is home to a strategically important port and stands astride the most direct land route from mainland Russia to Crimea, could be the separatists' next target.

The leaders of Russia, Ukraine, Germany and France – the four parties to the Minsk agreement – called for all sides to ceasefire and for "the implementation of the full package of measures agreed in Minsk" after a telephone call on Thursday.

The renewed fighting led the US to warn the pro-Russian separatists that "what was agreed to last week was not a shopping list".

Meanwhile, Mr Poroshenko proposed inviting a United Nations peacekeeping force to police the force in eastern Ukraine to monitor and police the peace agreement.

But both Russia and separatist leaders vigorously rejected the suggestion, going so far as to suggest the introduction of peacekeepers would "destroy" peace efforts.

The Ukrainian president's call "raises suspicions that he wants to destroy the Minsk accords", said Vitaly Churkin, Russia's ambassador to the United Nations.

 

"The Ukrainian security council's appeal to the United Nations to introduce peacekeepers on the Russian-Ukrainian border is a violation of the agreement of February 12," said Denis Pushilin, a senior figure in the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic.

Under the road-map agreement signed in Minsk, Ukraine will only regain full control of its border with Russia after a full political settlement is achieved. Ukraine and Western countries accuse Russia of funnelling vast supplies to the rebels via parts of the frontier controlled by the separatists.

Russia could use its veto at the United Nations Security Council to prevent a peacekeeping force from being deployed
