Today there was a clash between the residents of Kharkov and the neo-Nazi supporters of the Right Sector (mostly coming from the Western Oblasts). The neo-Nazis tried to prevent the Opposition Bloc party from registering in the local elections. Opposition Bloc was the most popular party in the Oblast of Kharkov according to the last parliamentary elections. And the neo-Nazis will not allow it to put up candidates in the elections. This is the state of democracy in Ukraine.

The more you complain about the Ukraine, the more it backfires on Russia. We've discussed this before: the Ukraine was only re-formed as an independent state very recently when the Soviet Union collapsed. So in other words, 25 years ago, they were still just another Russian republic, filled with radioactive Russians. I'm sure you'll feel a repressed sexual urge to "correct" me, and complain that Russia is not the USSR, but please... You're only bullshitting yourself and no-one else. It's the same murderous Russian mentality controlling Moscow, as usual.

What I see is how Russia is treating its "brothers", and how they steal and destroy everything.

Ukraine rebels kill four troops in heavier shelling

Ukraine says pro-Russian rebels have killed four of its soldiers and injured 15 in the past 24 hours.

The escalation came just hours before the latest round of talks on ending the conflict. The heaviest shelling was reported near rebel-held Donetsk.

The rebels say they have imposed a night curfew in Horlivka - a city just north of Donetsk - because of heavy Ukrainian army shelling.

There are daily exchanges of fire in eastern Ukraine, violating a ceasefire.

The Ukrainian military described the situation over the weekend as very tense, with the insurgents violating the ceasefire almost 100 times.

Ukraine, Western governments and Nato say there is clear evidence of Russian regular troops helping the rebels and arming them with heavy weapons - something Moscow denies.

Ceasefire talks are continuing in the Belarusian capital Minsk, overseen by the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE).

A peace plan was agreed in February, but the government and rebels have not completed a pull-back of heavy weapons.
