Donetsk, #Spartak, #Avdeevka - Shelling continues, again GRAD MLRS used
AND all those responses from western leaders who threatened more sanctions if things got worse and Russia did not implement Minsk 2.
WELL they are worse AND yet still no responses from Obama, Nuland, Kerry, Hollande and Merkel--why is that???
Simple--words to do not require any actions on their parts but sound nice for the 24 hour news cycle.
GRAD MLRS shellings are in full violation of Minsk 2 and yet not a single comment come from DC, Paris or Berlin.
They appear to be tone deaf to artillery and rocket shellings and blind to the killing of soldiers/civilians and the destruction of infrastructure.
That a war is ongoing in Central Europe in the 21st century is a testament to the failure of US/NATO/EU politicians.
What was that OSCE SMM mission in the Ukraine to be...????
They are definitely having some serious issues in trying to be "neutral" as is required.
An supposedly “withdrawn” T72B1 ---OSCE did not even recognize that it was from the Russian Army as the Ukraine does not have this model in their entire tank inventory.
From this angle we observe clearly- faded Russian army tactical marking & RF rail transport markings on this T72 tank pic.twitter.com/BI73AY2tTH

OSCE counted more than 20.000 people in Russian military uniform, who crossed the border betw RU and #Ukraine in the Donbass http://novosti.dn.ua/details/255599/
The OSCE has declared Russian actions in the Ukraine to be aggression.
PACE has declared Russian actions in the Ukraine to be aggression.
Russia is a member of both the OSCE and PACE.
There are over 700 tanks, and over 1000 IFVs and literally hundreds of artillery pieces and SPGs and MRLSs from Russia in the Ukraine.
Obama during the Ukraine PM visit openly stated the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Ukraine must be protected.
THEN we naturally have the 1994 Budapest Memorandum.
Look's like to me Obama can easily visit the Ukraine if he wanted to---the core question is --has he in fact --thrown the Ukraine under the bus--by not going the answer is YES even if he says nothing.
OCSE fails again--not sure exactly what they are good for outside of earning extra salaries via TDY.
Right after the intense shellings of Donetsk city they released their report stating the UA had started the shellings not the mercnearies and that the mercenaries were just retunrning fire.
Naturally jumped on by both Russian FM and her mercenaries as the "truth" and used as part of their propaganda about the shellings an killing of civilians.
Social media open source analysis had within minutes of the first volley of mortars that hit the center called it a "false flag" operation as at that point in the shellings absolutely no UA mortar was anywhere close to being able to reach that area.
THEN social media has now gone back and virtually proven it was a Russian led "false flag shelling attack" attempting to blame the UA.
SILENCE on the part of the OSCE to the reports--BTW the OSCE never did any crater analysis, video analysis and or went to the impact sites to determine if artillery and or mortar impacts--AND in the meantime the mercenaries had filled all the impacts on the roads.

OSCE confirms over 20K Russian uniformed personnel crossed back and forth into the Donbass from Russia in the period 1 Sept 2014 to 1 Jun 2015 AND the Russian FM and her mercenaries are now whinning...come on.....it is not as if the UA is actually invading the DNR--Mariupol is Ukrainian held not mercenary held and is not part of the Minsk 2 agreement in any form.

Where did all those 20K come from if not from Russia???

Ah...finally someone in the US “awakens to the Russian Bosnian model for the Ukraine”.
Core question –has Obama thrown the Ukraine under the bus with the Nuland driven unilateral appeasement with no reciprocal requirement on the part of Russia with the “special status” change to the Ukrainian Constitution SHOULD be the question the NYTs asks.
Next question should be—is via this unilateral appeasement Obama “attempting to save Putin’s face” in exchange of the Iranian deal????

OSCE: Russian GRU brings own people to Ukraine for 'certain tasks'
21.07.2015 | 19:55
Deputy Chief Monitor of the OSCE Special Monitoring Mission to Ukraine Alexander Hug claims he has met in person with representatives of Russia's Main Intelligence Directorate, or GRU, who have arrived in Donbas to perform "certain tasks," according to Ukrainian news service tsn.ua.
"Quote:
We have recently reported about the Vostok Battalion, which has crossed the Ukrainian-Russian border. We have reported about the location of a large arsenal of weapons in territory that is not controlled by the government. I have spoken in person with two members of the Russian GRU service, who have confirmed that they arrived in Ukraine from Russia," he told tsn.ua in an exclusive interview.
According to him, the GRU service confirmed they had brought "their own" people to perform "certain tasks."
Does Hug fully realize that the Russian Spetsnaz have currently two Brigades in the Ukraine and are constantly leading ground attacks and Spetsnaz does in fact work directly for the GRU????
MAYBE those they brought in for "special tasks" are in fact Spetsnaz.
Hate to say this but just how stupid can OSCE be.
Vostok BN is headed by the former Ukrainian SBU Alpha unit commander and is a major mercenary fighting unit--he is acting as if this is new information but in fact social media has been tracking Vostok from the very beginning--this commander actually just after the shot down of MH17 openly condemned the mercenaries for their shot down and then back tracked when he saw which way the wind was blowing out of Moscow.
This hybrid warfare thing is getting out of control on the Russian side. Here comes the blame benig placed on the Ukrainians and the CIA.
