Aaaaaand now your avatar looks ten degrees worse.

So, Owlbread.

You gonna commit sudoku when you lose the referendum?

I don't think it's a matter of "when", it's a matter of "if". We will address this if the situation arises.

Woops, meant to say/type "if".
I don't care either way though, as long as the referendum is fair.

No fun allowed.

Lol on the last sentence of the article, and I agree with frumple on the high heels.

[Guardian G.I.]

According to UNIAN and websites of pro-Russian forces, yesterday in Donetsk, representatives of the Ukrainian government and People's Republics of Donetsk and Luhansk have met for the first time, agreeing on a temporary cease-fire (until the 27th of June) and continuation of further negotiations.

Also, according to RIA Novosti, BBC and RT, Russian President Vladimir Putin have asked the upper house of the Russian parliament to revoke the right to use Russian military force in Ukraine, which was given to him by the same upper house on the 1st of March.

Yeah, saw that on google news. Looks like things are starting to finally calm down.

[Ukrainian Ranger]

Yeah, and minimum 11 killed Ukrainian soldiers today  don't count..... We have a damned one-sided ceasefire to calm things down

Any negotiations with that scum is unacceptable. Week is way to long, 24 hours for their surrender would be more than  enough. Negotiations like that are same as if USA started negotiating with Al-Qaeda or Israel with HAMAS

Freedom is not always, as your sig states, on the tip of a sword. Sometimes it is by the tip of the pen.

Putin removing that right is a good sign - it shows that he doesn't intend to occupy Eastern Ukraine. I belive that the war, if not won, is at least coming to an acceptable end.

And everybody's forgotten about Crimea, so I guess Putin did sort of win...

[da_nang]

The ceasefire didn't last very long.

[Mictlantecuhtli]

What a shocker!

All that Putin has to do to move troops in is to recognize new independent nation(s) and move troops in because they asked to. I see no changes here

Besides his troops are IN Ukraine right now, shooting down helicopters, sniping officers, bringing tanks and heavy artillery from Russia, kidnapping and murdering  civilians, blowing up Ukrainian infrastructure...

Why should he  move troops in Ukraine when the current strategy works and Ukraine plays along by calling his soldiers terrorists and wastes time on "negotiations" with his puppets?

That negotiations are either huge mistake that will result in hundreds if not thousands dead or plain treason

[Sergarr]

kidnapping and murdering  civilians

I'm pretty sure that if that was the case, all western media would be filled with examples of said behaviour. It is not. Therefore, this is probably not the case.

[Ukrainian Ranger]

Do you want to say that there are Western journalists in all that small cities not under Ukrainian control? Nope, only Russian media are allowed here.

Besides it is not the scale that will be interesting for journalists, few cases per day? Who cares? And that can be blamed on local crime

"few cases of kidnapping and murdering civilians per day by pro-russian forces" and "western media would not care" do not compute together.

[Ukrainian Ranger]

Journalist need something "bright" to right about. One time death of large number of people is more "interesting" than same number if people died over longer period

If you mean that Western Governments are interested to show bad behavior of Russians.... I think they don't. Because they promised more sanctions but they don't want to impose real sanctions
