1- Donbass Life, Editorial/Unacceptable scenario: Fail of Minsk-2 would lead to a war which will spread to Europe (VIDEO)

Donbass International News Agency https://dninews.com (Donbass)
On 19 August 2016, the Lugansk
People's Republic (LPR) organised an international round table on the theme:
"The life of the Republic: socio-political and socio-economical
aspects."
Representatives of various civil
movements, MPs and ministers of LPR attended it, along with
representatives of
South Ossetia, Abkhazia, Crimea, the Russian Federation, and also international
observers and journalists from Finland, Austria, Italy and France.
Igor Plotnitsky, President of LPR,
opened the round table, always marked by the attempted attack against him which
occurred earlier this month, but standing and determined in his speech. He said
that the 2014 referendum clearly marked that Donbass is a part of the Russian
world, and that nothing and nobody can change that. This view was also shared
by Vladimir Gvozdik, from the Crimean delegation.
He also gave an update on the status
of the current situation in the LPR. There is still a lot of work to do, but
many homes, schools, infrastructure, roads, factories were restored. And thanks
to that, most of the inhabitants of the Republic have returned. At the date of
the conference, 95% of pre-war residents are present in the territory of the Lugansk
People's Republic.
Plotnitsky also stressed that there
is no alternative to Minsk-2 in terms of peaceful settlement of the conflict,
and regretted that for the moment the peace process is completely stopped. This
led the LPR to ask to Kiev if they really wanted the territory of Donbass and
its people, or if they were only interested by the territory.
Vladimir Degtyarenko, the Speaker of
LPR Parliament, said just after that the fact that Ukraine deprives Donbass
people of papers (passports, birth and marriage certificates, etc.)
demonstrated clearly that it does not consider the inhabitants of both Peoples
Republic as Ukrainians.
Because as stated Vladislav Deynego,
Vice President of the LPR Parliament, "The only alternative to the Minsk
process, it is war. Not a civil war here, but a war that will spread in Europe,
and will affect European countries. And to consider this scenario as an
alternative is absolutely unacceptable."
This is why many stakeholders
appealed to European countries, the international community, the OSCE, and even
the United Nations, to put pressure on Kiev to resume discussions in a
constructive way. The authorities, as well as the citizens of both People's
Republics, want peace and a victory obtained by the political means and not by
weapons.
Because as stated Denis Pushilin,
Speaker of Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) Parliament, at each Ukrainian
soldier who dies, the gap between the Ukrainian people and the citizens of the
two young republics dig a little deeper, and Ukrainian people, already crammed
with anti DPR and LPR propaganda, will oppose increasingly to the two
republics.
Foreign observers emphasized the
importance of these agreements, and on the terrorist aspect of Kiev actions in
Donbass. Alfred Almeder, an Austrian observer, and Janus Putkonen, Director of
DONi News Agency, recalled the importance to inform the European people about
what is happening here. Because only a massive popular support for the peace
here could bow western governments, like the United States during the Vietnam
War.
Besides, Sergey Panteleev, director
of the Institute of overseas Russians, highlighted a strange paradox: it is
here in Donbass, that the true European values are defended, and this is why
more and more European representatives come here. He also gave advice to the
two young republics to learn from South Ossetia and Abkhazia, which have
experienced similar problems, and if Minsk does not work finally, then they
will have to continue building a state here in the People's Republics.
The second part of the round table
focused precisely on these points. Vladimir Degtyarenko recalled that unlike
the Kiev authorities which are illegal because they are coming from a coup, the
authorities of the two young republics are the result of a referendum which
international observers attended, followed by an election, and are thus
legitimate. The Minister of Justice has then indicated that the primaries law
in the LPR is ready, and the electoral process could continue as planned.
The legitimacy of the two People's
Republics' authorities was confirmed by the President of the South Ossetian
Parliament, Anatoly Bibilov. This explains why South Ossetia officially
recognises the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics, and a treaty of economic
and financial cooperation will be signed between the three republics. But South
Ossetia will not stop there, and Bibilov said that his country is ready to
assist the two young republics in all possible ways, including militarily. For
him, Ukraine, like Georgia are terrorist states.
Besides, the lack of international
recognition is not a major problem, as highlighted an economic expert, because
Russia is an ally of both republics and a strong ally. And as stated Denis
Pushilin, non-recognition of the two young republics will not last forever, and
if it does not work one way, the authorities of the People's Republics will try
others until one of them works. And LPR as well as DPR have now a much better
potential for economic but also democratic development than Ukraine.
In conclusion, as stated by Denis
Miroshnichenko, one wonders how the Ukrainian mass media will present this
conference of so-called "terrorists" promoting the implementation of
a peace agreement.

The DPR operative command called
upon the OSCE Mission to take steps after the Ukrainian President Petro
Poroshenko had sent 140 units of new military equipment, including fighters and
helicopters to Donbass.
It has been reported by the command
representative.
“‘We are calling upon
the OSCE Mission to pay attention to Poroshenko’s decree on redeploying heavy
arms, including combat air forces to the conflict zone,’ pointed out the DPR
Operative command representative.”
He assured that if the enemy had
combat planes, the Republican forces were ready for an appropriate
reaction.
“‘Let they (the
Ukrainian army) redeploy the military equipment number they want, at any rate
we will not leave our positions. Air defense military equipment in the
Republic is ready to meet any attack,’ added the Operative Command
representative.”

4- Pushylin offers Kiev to start implementing Minsk-2 now, but not after 5 years as it’s planned there
Tuesday, August 23, 2016 - 18:21, DONi
Donbass International News Agency https://dninews.com (Donbass)
The Ukrainian government should
start implementing the Minsk Agreements on peacefully settling the conflict in
Donbass and not to postpone this process for five years.
It has been pointed out by the DPR
Delegation Head to the Contact Group negotiations Denis Pushylin.
Earlier today the Ukrainian
representative to the work group on the security issues Evgeniy Marchuk stated
that the elections holding in Donbass (it is one of the Minsk-2 key points) was
impossible at present. According to him, it is necessary for this that four or
five years pass. The longer, the better,’ pointed out Marchuk.
“‘It is a further
Ukrainian side attempt to delay the negotiation process. In the Complex of
Measures there are written the things in black and white to adopt a law on
elections, on the special status, on the amnesty and on amending the Ukrainian
Constitution, coordinated with the DPR and LPR representatives and to hold the
elections, meeting Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights OSCE
standards,’ reminded Pushylin.”
He added that to achieve peace it is
necessary not to twist, not to interpret in own way but to implement the
Complex of Measures items bit by bit.

5- Kiev to sue Russia? How about Crimea asks compensation for '20 years of looting'
Tuesday, August 23, 2016 - 15:56, DONi
Donbass International News Agency https://dninews.com (Donbass)
Ukraine's Foreign Ministry's is talking about filing a
lawsuit against Russia over suspected violations of international maritime law
in Crimea. In response, Crimean authorities suggest that maybe it's time they
file charges of their own against Kiev from when the peninsula was part of
Ukraine for what they say amounts to "20 years of plunder."
On Monday, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Pavlo Klimkin
promised that Ukraine would soon be lodging a claim with international courts
over supposed Russian violations of the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the
Sea in Crimean territorial waters, the Black and Azov seas and the Kerch
Strait, as well as "rights to natural resources of the continental
shelf", reports Sputnik.
Ukrainian officials have been making statements about
filing lawsuits against Russia in international courts for months, with Klimkin
repeating only two weeks ago that the Foreign Ministry had completed its
preparations for arbitration with Russia on the issue of sovereign sea rights
surrounding the Crimean Peninsula.

6- Europe turns blind eye to Kiev regime’s war crimes in Donbass
Tuesday, August 23, 2016 - 15:39, DONi Donbass International News
Agency https://dninews.com (Donbass)
The European institutes have once again shown their unwillingness
to help with the solution of the conflict in Donbass provoked by the US and
European political leadership, writes in Izvestiya (‘News’) Vitaly
Zakharchenko, the chairman of the Yugo-Vostok charity foundation, the Ukrainian
Minister of Internal Affairs in 2011-2014.
“"The terrorist war against their own people has
been waged for more than two years already, civilians of the Donbass cities and
localities perish every day, the infrastructure is in collapse, schools,
kindergartens, houses of my fellow countrymen are being destroyed. And all this
is going on in the center of Europe – with complete connivance and
encouragement from the western authorities. Violating its own legal principles,
Europe does not want to see crimes of the Kiev regime. And therefore for all
the crimes including the military ones committed in Ukraine today, should also
bear responsibility the western politicians who hadn’t only brought to power in
my country the politicians who started massacre in Donbass but also continue to
support them, to sponsor and to cover their crimes by all means," notes
the politician.”
The former head of Ukraine’s Ministry of Internal Affairs
reports that recently the ECHR has refused to consider the complaints of the
Ukrainian citizens for violations of the European convention on human rights
during a large-scale military operation. At that the European court proved its
position by the absence of documents for the real estate which had been
destroyed or damaged during the military operations, and didn’t mention at all
the more essential violations in the ECHR human rights field.
“"Thus, the Europeans have once again shown their
unwillingness to assist the solution of the conflict in Donbass provoked by the
USA and the European states’ political leadership. At the same time the cynical
refusal to consider the claims of Donbass residents shows the presence of
serious problems in the international institutes and organizations’ work. The
problems requiring cardinal solutions. There is a resistant impression that the
European court tries to excuse under any formal pretext those who commit
terrible crimes against Donbass civilians. Thus, supporting the legal
lawlessness in Ukraine, the ECHR itself takes the criminals’ part,"
emphasizes Zakharchenko.”
“"The criminals are screened so that a few years
later there could be made another false confession to the world community that,
so to say, "we were mistaken", "after all the convention was
violated in Donbass…" The ritual of such "justifications" is
already perfected: it used to take place already when the truth surfaced how
the decision on Great Britain’s participation in the war in Iraq had been made;
or when the International tribunal on the former Yugoslavia finally cleared the
perished in prison Slobodan Milosevic of charges for committing war crimes
during the war in 1992-1995. This time it will be the same. And for now Europe
gives the so-called go-by to the crimes committed by the Kiev authorities
against Donbass civilians," summarizes the politician.”

7- Protest in
support of Donbass republics, resistance against fascism in Ukraine to be held
in London, September 29
Tuesday, August 23, 2016 - 15:12, DONi
Donbass International News Agency https://dninews.com (Donbass)
The British and other NATO countries
actively backed the ‘Euromaidan’ movement and the illegal coup of February
2014, which saw openly fascist, anti-semitic, extremely violent Nazi groups
led by the Right Sector become part of the government, and later the entire
state structure. This is the first time since 1945 that fascists have been able
to take positions of state power in a European state.
Since then we have seen the Odessa
Trade Union House fire in May 2014, in which at least 50 people were murdered;
trade union and opposition party offices ransacked and burned; the Communist
Party of Ukraine declared illegal; widespread attacks on communists,
socialists, Jewish and gay people; members of the judiciary intimidated;
thousands arrested for 'seperatism' and sent to secret prisons run by the
Security Service of Ukraine, and continuing disappearances and murders of
opposition activists and journalists.
The British government has sent
100 military trainers to support the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and has sponsored
‘educational’ activities aimed at sanitising the WW2 fascist leaders who
collaborated with Nazi Germany in the genocide of 5-7 million people, a quarter
of Ukraine's population including 1.5 million jews, and the deportation of two
million people to Germany.
The New Communist Party will be
calling for:
Justice for the Odessa Trade Union
House Fire victims!
End the far right reign of terror in
Ukraine!
End British military and other aid
to the illegal Ukraine government
Implement the Minsk 2 Accords, bring
peace to Ukraine
Solidarity with people of the
Lugansk and Donetsk Republics
Solidarity with anti-fascists in
Ukraine
The protest is organised by the New
Communist Party with support from Solidarity with the Anti-Fascist Resistance
in Ukraine which will take place at the Ministry of Defence, Whitehall (near
the Cenotaph), Thursday 29 September 5.30-7pm.
The New Communist Party urges
everyone who supports the resistance against fascism in Ukraine to support
this protest.

8- Donetsk Defence: Situation Report, 23.08.2016
Tuesday, August 23, 2016 - 14:43, DONi
Donbass International News Agency https://dninews.com (Donbass)
The situation in the Donetsk
People's Republic remains tense. Over the past day the Ukrainian punishers
violated the ceasefire regime 290 times.
The enemy keeps using artillery for
shelling the Republic's territory. In total there were launched 10
artillery projectiles of 122mm calibre, and 251 shells of 82mm and 120mm
calibre. Besides, the enemy opened fire from infantry fighting vehicles,
grenade launchers and small arms.
The war criminals Zabolotny,
Zubanich and Delyatitsky gave orders to open fire at the Republic’s localities
with a purpose to exterminate the civilian population. Over the past day there
were shelled such localities as Vasilievka, Yasinovataya, Spartak,
Aleksandrovka, Sakhanka and Bezymennoye.
Eight houses sustained damage in Kominternovo and in the
Petrovsky district of Donetsk as a result of the shellings by the Ukrainian
punoshers over the past day.
The losses among the DPR People’s
Militia made one killed and two wounded.
We have registered movement of the
AFU equipment forbidden by the Minsk Agreements near the contact line.
- Near Novgorodskoye (6 km
away from the contact line) there were detected three units of MRLS
‘Grad’;
- In Novotroitskoye (6 km
away from the contact line) there was detected the arrival of four 120mm
mortars;
- In Konstantinovka (25 km
away from the contact line) there was detected the arrival of nine 122mm
motorized howitzers ‘Giatsint’.
We continue noting enemy’s air
reconnaissance conducted with application of the UAVs. Along the whole contact
line there were registered the UAVs carrying out fire adjustment for artillery
units and taking pictures of civil infrastructure objects.
All the data on violations of the
Minsk Agreements were passed to the OSCE and JCCC representatives.
In connection with the OSCE Deputy
Head A. Hug’s work in the Republic during the past two days there was noted a
decrease tendency in the number of the AFU shellings. But this decrease doesn’t
remove responsibility for the punishers’ criminal actions. Overnight to August
23 the kindergarten №94 was partially destroyed as a result of a direct
artillery shell-hit in the Petrovsky district of Donetsk. The tragedy was
avoided thanks to the absence of children and personnel in the kindergarten in
the nighttime. Thus, we again observe the true face of Ukrainian soldiers, who
occupy schools and conduct accurate fire at kindergartens on the eve of a
school year.
Amid the relative decrease in the
AFU shellings’ number there is registered stepping up of Ukraine’s Special
Operations Forces on carrying out diversions on the Republic’s vital
infrastructure facilities. So, yesterday the main communication lines of MTS
and Phoenix mobile network operators were damaged in the Petrovsky,
Kuibyshevsky, Voroshilovsky districts of Donetsk city, the localities of
Yelenovka and Dokuchayevsk as a result of a diversion carried out by them.
Thus, the military and political
leadership of Ukraine purposefully pursues the policy of forcing the situation
in Donbass, drawing special operations forces into destruction of vital
infrastructure facilities.
