Do you know what kind of artillery should be removed through these agreements ?
In this press article, they mention use of 120, 122 and 125mm shells :

At least 6 dead, 90 injured in Donetsk in shelling by Kiev – local officials

At least one side is being honest .

a reply to: theultimatebelgianjoke

According to what I've read, it's anything over 100mm, along with multiple rocket launchers.

50 km buffer zone was to have been established.

I don't doubt this at all. If I'm right there was also some mentions about this "seize fire" thingy in that Minsk peace agreement. And if i really strech my memory I think that withdrawing these heavy weapons was demanded in order to actually start that seize fire.
So, if the separatists don't maintain seizefire why wouldn't Kiev bring these guns back to the line?

Maybe if the Russian's hadn't started the problem, you know sending in troops and all, the other side would have played nice also? That seems to me to be a rather obvious observation. How do you view the situation anyway, from Putin's misguided view of creating the new Russian empire?

Russia's newest propaganda wing...anything more credible?

Maybe is the Americans hadn't started this problem, you know overthrowing a democratically elected leader and manufacturing a revolution, the there side would have no reason to fight. He'll there wouldn't even be another side, there would be a stable Ukraine and a stable Russia.

Thanks to FOX news the 6 deads are narrowed to two.
Now you have only one choice : go check by yourself the exact amount of casualties in order to find out who is lying, because CNN reports only 4 victims.

Should we review in detail which representatives of which religious/ethnical group are the most likely to own the major US newssources ?

a reply to: AVoiceOfReason

The people voted, and chose the government. It was not a military coup. Funny how a vote only matters if they choose who you want.

That Bent guys shift is about to start... This thread should get fun.

You would understand it a little better if you understood the concepts behind modern politics and asymmetric warfare. Or maybe you do and your just biased. All in all I don't care.

So like crimea and the east republics?

And what is it ?

I can explain different figures from Fox and CNN.
Fox - reporting 2 casualties from Ukr side of the front line (citing Ukr military)
CNN - reporting 4 casualties from DNR/LNR (citing Russian via DNR sources)

Why so, I can't explain, but I want to see your analysis of american media structure "religious/ethnical group"

On a side note it was funny to see CNN short video. Take a look who is supporting rebels - apparently those are US Polo team cheerleader

Same as Florida voting for independence. Doesn't work that way. Not to mention NEITHER voted. The Eastern Ukraine sections that DID vote actually voted for the Pro-Western government you hate.

Crimea gets to vote on who rules Ukraine, it does not get to vote to be it's own country unilaterally.

If you think it does, are you for Dagestan getting a vote? What about Chechnya? Or is only Russia exempt?

See you are a hypocrite, I am not. I don't think Dagestan OR Crimea should vote to be independent. You think Crimea should, and Dagestan should not.

Hypocrisy.

People voted. It was not a military coup. They were sick and tired of Russia.
