11 June, 2016




The Ukrainian Convicts in Russia Yuri Soloshenko and Gennady Afanasiev* signed an agreement to serve their sentence in the territory of Ukraine, said the latter's lawyer Alexander Popkov RIA Novosti.

"Now the negotiations on the transfer of Afanasiev and Soloshenko will go to the diplomatic level, everything is at the stage "just about". Movement is all that is needed - we signed. This is a different paper, including consent to serving the sentence on the territory of Ukraine - it is one of the transfer mechanisms," said Afanasiev's lawyer Alexander Popkov.

Also, according to the defence, Soloshenko and Afanasiev wrote a petition to the President of Russia for a pardon, and signed a number of other papers necessary for the transfer of prisoners.

(O.R: Both were involved in plotting acts of terrorism in Crimea as members of Right Sector)

Savchenko meets with Yarosh on frontline, tests "experimental weapon"

June 8, 2016 - 
Translated by J. Arnoldski



PolitRussia report: 

The former leader of the Ukrainian radical movement “Right Sector”, Dmitry Yarosh, and the deputy of the Verkhovna Rada, Nadezhda Savchenko, visited Ukrainian security forces deployed in Avdeevka and Shirkonio and participated in the testing of “experimental weapons.”

“Nadezhda Savchenko visited the bases of the 5th and 8th battalions of the UVA (Ukrainian Volunteer Army, earlier called the Volunteer Ukrainian Corpus “Right Sector”) and tested at the training site a unique experimental weapon whose only existing prototype has been produced in the armory of the UVA,” Yarosh wrote on his Facebook page.

In addition, Yarosh and Savchenko discussed further cooperation on issues of defense, the legalization of volunteers, and the release of Ukrainian prisoners.

PolitNavigator report: 



On June 6th-7th, the people’s deputies Dmitry Yarosh and Nadezhda Savchenko visited the location of Ukrainian units stationed in Avdeevka and Shirokino.

This has been reported on the “Sector of Truth” website of the “Dia” nationalist movement founded by the former leader of Right Sector, Dmitry Yarosh.

“During the visit, the deputies met with the head of the military-civil administration of Avdeevka, Pavel Malykhin,” the report notes. “Nadezhda Savchenko also visited the bases of the 5th and 8th battalions of the UVA and tested at the training site a unique experimental weapon whose only existing prototype has been produced in the armory of the UVA. Fighters of the Ukrainian Volunteer Army and volunteers of the UAF who talked with Nadezhda Savchenko were interested above all in one thing: ‘When will we go on an offensive?’ Nadezhda’s position is quite careful and reasonable. She believes that it is necessary to do everything so that as little Ukrainian blood will be spilled as possible and so that Ukrainian prisoners can be quickly returned home. She supports the conduct of war by means of sabotage groups. She also hopes for the closing of the border with the Russian Federation and the reduction of the Kremlin’s influence on the territory of the so-called ‘LPR-DPR.” 


“Dmitry Yarosh and Nadezhda Savchenko discussed future cooperation on issues of defense, the legalization of volunteers, and the release of Ukrainian prisoners. Only time will tell how fruitful this cooperation will be, but already today it can be said that the two politicians and soldiers found a common language,” the nationalist website emphasizes.

Right Sector Deputy: Dnepropetrovsk Oblast to Be Renamed in Honor of the Victory Over Putin

Translated by Ollie Richardson for Fort Russ
3rd June, 2016




Ukrainian nationalists have proposed to rename the Dnepropetrovsk area to "Sich". This was stated on the social network page of a former member of "Right sector", People's Deputy Andrey Denisenko.

According to him, the area will be named in honor of five of the Zaporizhian Sich, which was once located on its territory.

"Our Cossack region - the core of the Ukrainian lands - should be rightfully called the "Sich" region - in honor of 5 of the Zaporizhian Sich  which was located on this territory and served in outposts for the defense of the entire of Ukraine. The same way as now, when Glorious Sich stopped Putin's Horde in  Moscow. This name for the area will pay respect to one of historical names of the Dnieper - Sicheslav - which our city was called during the national-liberation movements of 1918-1920," said Denisenko.

He believes that there are enough votes in the current Parliament to amend the Constitution and to rename the region.

Earlier, the Verkhovna Rada renamed the city of Dnepropetrovsk to "Dnipro" (Ukrainian spelling) .

What in reality is yet a lie, as to promise does not mean to marry. You have just to drive down the road of the railway station in the direction of Dnepropetrovsk. According to the law, it will only be possible to rename the city of Dnepropetrovsk when funds from next year's budget are allocated.

US Congressmen Call on Kiev to Protect LGBT March From Radicals

Translated by Ollie Richardson for Fort Russ
30th May, 2016




A group of US congressmen urged the Ukrainian authorities to protect the rights of participants of the LGBT parade in Kiev. The open letter sent to the Ambassador of Ukraine from the United States urged Kiev to ensure the safety of participants of the parade from threats that are expressed by the supporters of radical right-wing groups.

"The Ukrainian government must protect the right of Ukrainian citizens to a peaceful assembly and ensure protection of the current "Kiev pride" march for civil equality," quotes the "Interfax" agency from the letter by American congressmen.

The US Congress has attended to the protection of the rights of participants of the LGBT movement in Ukraine after the march in Lviv, where supporters of radical movements attacked the marchers in support of the rights of sexual minorities.

Noting the rise in violence against members of the LGBT community, the congressmen at the same time expressed their approval of the antidiscrimination amendments to legislation adopted in Ukraine concerning sexual minorities.

"Right Sector" Vows to Disrupt LGBT Pride Parade in Kiev

Translated by Ollie Richardson for Fort Russ
29th May, 2016



Ukrainian nationalists want to prevent the holding of a LGBT pride parade in Kiev. This was reported by the Ukrainian website "Корреспондент.net" with reference to the head of press service of the banned in Russia group "Right Sector" Artem Skoropadsky.

"Today we are forced to agree with LGBT marches and festivals, and thus, to be among sinners and those who cover them. No, we will not calmly watch as the country for which we sacrificed our blood for on many fronts is destroyed from the rear by sneaky methods of hybrid war in the peaceful capital,"  he said.

Ukrainian nationalists believe that their duty is to prevent the substitution of notions, "when human baseness and perversion is called the struggle for freedom". All radicals were urged to come out on the streets on June 12th and prevent the LGBT march by activists in Kiev.

Translated by Ollie Richardson for Fort Russ
14th April, 2016




Kiev continues to move nationalist battalions to the line of contact, including committing provocations against the military personnel of the LPR's militia. This was reported today at a Luganskinfo briefing, and was said by the official representative of the Defense Ministry of the Republic - Andrei Marochko.

"There is an ongoing increase in nationalist battalions at the line of contact of the parties," he said.

"A division of the "Right sector" appeared in the settlement of Shchastya, and are located in one of the administrative buildings of the village. Also, earlier there were units of the Right sector and "Aidar" battalion in the villages of Raihorodka, Novoaidar, and Severodonetsk," said Marochko.

"Nationalist battalions arrived to stage provocations against servicemen of the militia of the Luhansk People's Republic," said the official representative of the Defense Ministry of the Republic.

"Despite all this, the people's militia continues to observe the Minsk agreements. Our units comply with the "ceasefire", without simultaneously weakening vigilance", he said.
