For those that want to understand more the Russian concept of using nuclear weapons on a large city or military target to "de-escalate".
This is an important concept currently being seen in the border areas to the Ukraine---ie the stationing of tactical nuclear missiles with a range to reach southern Poland and the complete Baltics.

A really good analysis and one of the first I have seen on the new Russian UW strategy of limited war that takes one through the actual developments in eastern Ukraine.
Why is this article of particular importance?---it has started talking about inherent single points of failure that I have been tracking as well that make the Russian new doctrine actually both interesting to watch unfold but relatively easy to counter if NATO fully understands them which up to now they have not appeared to understand.
As strange as it sounds in some aspects the Ukrainians after the shock of the Russian invasion with "vacationing troops and tanks" and after losing the Crimea have seemingly recovered and are pushing back slowly but steadily although still weak on the anti armor and anti aircraft side and facing financial difficulties.
They themselves shifted to guerrilla warfare the only counter to a guerrilla focused UW strategy backed up by a stronger growing CF.
Therein lies the secret to countering the Russian UW strategy--first SF then joint CF/SF and then back to SF coupled with a strong armed internal security force.
Example of a successful Ukrainian SF operation.

A listing of Russian weapon systems that have been verified as being in the eastern Ukraine--of a critical nature is the weapon system TOS-1 Buratino--all identified via social media and journalists and geo tagged to confirm their exact locations inside the Ukraine.
One of the most complete lists I have seen. If the US IC is reading--this is probably the largest gold mine on Russian technical intelligence since Desert Storm.

Declaration on State Sovereignity of Novorossiya
by Olivier Fehr · December 14, 2014
The source is official site of the organs of Donetsk Peoples Republic and it does look official, but authenticity still needs to be confirmed.
A quick translation with help of yandex.ru follows:
December 12, 2014
Declaration on State Sovereignty of Novorossiya
Adopted by the Congress of deputies of all levels 12 December 2014
On the basis of principles of international law and the UN Charter, including the right to self-determination, and the will of the people to the formation of a sovereign state, clearly expressed in the referendum of may 11, 2014, the Congress of deputies of all levels adopts the present Declaration on the State Sovereignty of Novorossiya and proclaims the formation of the Union of Sovereign Republics of the state of Novorossiya.
1. Novorossiya is proclaimed as the state Union of Sovereign Republics, in recognition of the continuity of the Contract for the formation of the USSR from December 30, 1922. Members of the Union of Sovereign Republics are any administrative-territorial formation of the USSR in any form recognized on behalf of the people and support the Agreement on the establishment of the USSR from December 30, 1922, as amended on December 12, 2014.
2. The bearer of sovereignty and the only source of state power is the people of Novorossiya. People have the right to armed defence of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Union of Sovereign Republics, the free possession of weapons, the formation of the people’s armed police, the direct election of its commanders, and the formation of armed militias in the event of war and the threats to its sovereignty.
3. Novorossiya cancels all political ties with the former state of Ukraine, is not and does not aspire to be part of a common political space. Novorossiya as a free and independent state has the authority to declare war, conclude peace, contract alliances, engage in international trade, and to take any other action which is entitled to any independent state.
4. Novorossiya is in a close, friendly, equitable, and, with common consent, in union’s relations with the Russian Federation. The state language of the new Russia is the Russian language.
5. Executive, legislative and judicial power, as well as the territorial militia, formed exclusively by the people, either directly or through elected deputies. Not permitted is the establishment of independent authorities, independent of the people, or their legal representatives. Deputies and officers are elected by the people directly and personally, replacement for direct election of party lists is not allowed. Each member represents their constituents, and can be recalled by them.
6. Novorossiya is proclaimed as the social state, bearing full responsibility for the welfare of all members of society. Recognizing all forms of ownership, Novorossiya supports state and collective forms, prevents excessive private monopolization, threatening the interests of society, the privatization of public facilities and infrastructure, and also the abuse of the right of private property, going in harm to citizens, workforce, society and the state. The conditions for the operation of private enterprises that use hired labor, are determined by the tripartite Commission composed of representatives of the owner, of the labor collective and the state. The subsoil, forests, water resources, and land outside of cities and settlements are indivisible public property, land of cities and settlements, municipal or private property. All in good faith leading rural or farming, or retain their rights to the land, and are entitled to additional state support.
7. Citizens of Novorossiya recognized all born in Novorossiya, or lawfully and in good faith lived more than five years on the territory of Novorossiya, or took part in defending the sovereignty of Novorossiya in the composition of the militia. All citizens of Novorossiya have equal rights, and cannot be deprived of their citizenship without their consent. Citizens of Novorossiya have the right to obtain a passport, but are not required to have it. The presence or absence of a citizen of Novorossiya any documents does not affect the amount of his civil rights. The foreigners in Novorossiya legally enjoy the same rights as citizens with rights, except the right of gun ownership, and rights of elected and labor.

This is about the sixth incident in the last two months being reported by the Ukrainian government backed up by photos and or videos fully supporting the Russian mercenaries and or troops when they are suppose to be "neutral observers".
The OSCE has been largely undermined by countries that actually support Russia due to gas deals and or money is flowing to their political parties.

Another weekend in the apparently one sided declared "ceasefire" by the Ukraine:

"There is no withdrawal of Russian troops in Donbas at all.What we see is an efficiency increase and preparation for more war." –
#Russia|n forces continue to violate the "ceasefire" by attacking #Ukraine positions.
