Ukrainian army loot civilians:
--------------------------------------------------------
The SMM facilitated dialogue that enabled some displaced persons to accompany the SMM to their homes in government-controlled Pisky (11km north-west of Donetsk). In government-controlled Selydove (41km north-west of Donetsk), the SMM spoke with 24 persons (16 women, eight men) displaced from Pisky, some of whom complained of looting and occupation of their homes. Approximately 6km west of Pisky, the SMM observed a military truck moving from the area of Pisky carrying four uniformed persons and loaded with furniture, mattresses and window frames. In Pisky, the SMM saw damage to houses and apartments, some of which was caused by shelling, although other damage was assessed to have been caused by criminal activity. Doors, windows and some furniture had been removed from some apartments, piles of clothes and small personal items such as photographs, and rubbish littered the streets. In Pisky, the SMM also observed military positions and accommodation in private residences.

I can't say that the local elections in Ukraina yesterday was a success.

Fraud, frustration behind low turnout in Ukraine local elections
On Sunday (25 October), less than half of the electorate showed up polling stations for the local elections.

Local elections in Odesa marked by violations, low turnout
​Court stops election in Krasnoarmiysk, rules ballots printed illegally
Polling stations can't be opened in Mariupol over mistakes in voting ballots
Politicians exchange accusations, as residents outraged at no vote in Mariupol

Danish observers from SILBA Institute says that where many cases of bribery, according to the Ukrainian news agency UNIAN.
Silba's press coordinator Andrej Bendtsen says that the results are mostly positive.
Electoral Commissions in Ukrainian local elections looked well equipped and well prepared out. But there were several incidents of bribery.

A typical example of Ukrainian poster that urges to go on elections (October 25, 2015) - "Who won't vote is Moskal".
Moskal is an ethnic derogatory slur referring to the Russians in Ukraine.

There is no racism in Putin 'The Great' - Russia.

Do you discuss with yourself? I wrote about Ukraine loved in US.

There are racism in all countries on this planet.

But even the far-right symbols have a prominent place in the Russian supporter scene, you see them in almost every game, said Klymenko.
- Another phenomenon is the attacks on dark-skinned players. Bananas thrown and monkey sounds.
When Dacosta Goore (FK Alania), Christopher Samba (Dynamo Moscow) and Emmanuel Frimpong (FC Ufa) were subjected to racist attacks they responded by raising your middle finger to the guilty grandstand. The Russian Football Association has been quick to turn off the players, but found it more difficult to punish hate spreaders in the audience.

Emmanuel Frimpong

According to the Russian sport minister Vitaly Mutko the description of race hatered is excessive!

The sad difference between the modern Ukraine and Russia -
If the Russian will walk on a street in Russia and will shout "Ukrainians are my brothers!" - a passersby will say "Yes, so what?".
If the Ukrainian will walk on a street in Ukraine and will shout "Russians are my brothers!" - a passersby will say "You are traitor and Russian agent!"

Yes it's sad.
Ukraine and Russia is very much like Norway and Sweden in the 19'th century.
Whats different though is the that we didn't start a war 1908.

Come to think about it.
Russians from Moscow are very xenophobic.
They act like Ãœbermenschn when on holiday.
Especially in Crimea!

I think sanctions against Russia and Ukraine are pointless.
Well it's a powerful tool but in the end it's the common people that suffers!

Sept. 25, 2015. Ukraine is banning flights by Russian airlines from Oct. 25 as part of a wave of sanctions against Russia. Prime Minister Arseny Yatsenyuk told a government meeting: "In accordance with a decision by the Security Council, the government of Ukraine is adopting a decision to ban flights by Russian companies, primarily Aeroflot and Transaero, to Ukraine".

It’s been a few months since VICE News has been in eastern Ukraine, and violence in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions has died down — suggesting that the Minsk ceasefire deal is finally sticking.

No one killed and no one wounded in easternmost Ukraine. Calm. Putin wants all attention on what he’s up to in Syria as he goes to the UN.

Ukraine bans 41 international journalists and bloggers
New York, September 16, 2015 - The Committee to Protect Journalists deplores a decree signed by Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko today which, according to a copy viewed by CPJ, bans at least 41 international journalists and bloggers from Ukraine for one year. The journalists and bloggers were among 388 people named as representing an "actual or potential threat to national interests, national security, sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine," according to news reports.
The 34 journalists and seven bloggers named in the ban come from Bulgaria, Estonia, Germany, Hungary, Israel, Kazakhstan, Latvia, Macedonia, Moldova, Poland, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, Spain, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. The decree, which was published on the presidential website, does not explain what press coverage Ukrainian authorities deem as a threat to national security. Three BBC journalists including Moscow correspondent Steve Rosenberg were banned. In a statement, Andrew Roy, foreign editor of the BBC, called the ban "a shameful attack on media freedom," and described it as an "inexplicable measure to take against BBC journalists who are reporting the situation in Ukraine impartially and objectively," The Guardian reported.

Ukrainian Foreign Ministry under fire for ‘incompetent’ sanctions list.
The scandal over Ukraine’s now notorious blacklist of prominent international journalists has flared up yet again, as the Foreign Ministry digs itself in deeper in trying to justify the move.
After the publication of the list of sanctioned journalists triggered international outrage, Poroshenko quickly backtracked and canceled the bans on six of them.
http://www.kyivpost.com/content/ukraine/foreign-ministry-under-fire-for-incompetent-sanctions-list-398216.html
The Committee to Protect Journalists issued a statement on Sept. 17 in which they thanked President Petro Poroshenko for removing European journalists from the list. However, they also pushed for further action.

"We are glad that Ukrainian authorities have reacted to the international outrage that the ban provoked by removing six international journalists from the list," Europe and Central Asia Program Coordinator Nina Ognianova was cited as saying in the statement.

"Now, President Poroshenko's government should remove all journalists and bloggers from the list and allow them to cover the region freely," Ognianova said.
