We begin with reports from the most favorable for the Ukrainian government – the media front. In the morning, some media reported that at night Ukrainian militants managed to take control of three checkpoints at the entrances to Slavynsk . But it was not true . Militias say that they did not give in, and keep all strategic targets under control.
Next. Today the list of buildings under the control of the militia , was supplemented by the city council of Gorlovka , Kirov district court of Donetsk, Regional Department of Internal Affairs of Lugansk. In addition, the police chief of Lugansk Guslavsky V.S , speaking earlier against the will of the people, has resigned.
Officially the new head of Lugansk police with a group of officers have already left for the place of service. However, Ukrainian Interior Ministry has not disclose his name yet.
Kiev authorities have no longer control of the situation in the country. Today acting Ukrainian President A. Turchinov understood it . However, according to him, they have no control over the situation only in the Donbas . Turchinov will soon understand that the situation is controlled only in Kiev, within their offices.
We should recall to Mr. acting president that even Zacarpathian activists have announced their intention to create their own independent republics.
In addition in the Ukraine it is seriously planned to establish territorial defense battalions in each region. Battalions should be formed for the account of the "patriots" of the country and differ by exceptional mobility. National Guard, which raid the militia checkpoints only in order to eat preserves and biscuits , is already created of "patriots".
On the international arena. Tonight, there was the regular meeting of the UN Security Council on the issue related to the situation in Ukraine . Western speakers accused Russia of making chaos in Ukraine. Opponent of such biased viewpoint traditionally was Russia's permanent representative Vitaliy Churkin . The highlight of Vitaliy’s speech was a statement that Russian armed forces are now in the territory of their country, " but the U.S. forces hate staying at home."
