EU Sanctions 6 Russian Firms Over Crimea Bridge

The Ukraine government is steadily ending all ties to Moscow. Last week the Kyiv/Moscow train line ended, and Westinghouse began supplying nuclear reactors in Ukraine. Every week another step away.

This is a complete lie.


Where do you get such nonsense from?
 
Rogue claimed that the rail service had ended. It has not.

This is made clear in his own link quoting the minister:

"We are currently considering the option of ending railway traffic with Moscow,” he said.



Surely, even the most lazy propagandists amongst you can see that a Kiev politician saying something is being considered does not equate to it actually happening?

Forgive me for pointing out facts. But come back if the rail service actually does end and I'll agree with you. In the interim, don't lazily post inaccuracies.

Is that RT.com's final statement?

The Minister above is referring to ALL passenger railroad traffic with Moscow. Still under consideration.

However, the fate of the alternate-day Київ/Москва line has already been decided.

Gulsum Aliyeva

Gulsum Aliyeva (23) is a leader of the activist group "Crimean Solidarity" and the daughter of Crimean Tatar annexation-resister Tahrir Aliyev. She was arrested on 19 July 2018 at her Alushta home in Crimea by Russian security forces and carted off. She has been charged under Article 282 of the Criminal Code of Russia (inciting ethnic hatred). Anyone on the Crimean peninsula who resists the illegal Russian annexation or professes the religion of Islam is labeled as an enemy of the Russian state. The persecution of the Crimean Tatar people under the Kremlin yoke continues unabated.

Ukraine preparing for new restrictions on transportation to, from Russia

8/16/18
Ukrainian Infrastructure Minister Volodymyr Omelyan has announced new restrictions on transportation to and from Russia. “I have signed a historic document today. Bears will be the only transport to Moscow, just like they were in the good old days,” Omelyan wrote on Facebook. He said that the restrictions would go beyond passenger trains. As reported earlier, the Ukrainian Infrastructure Ministry has drafted proposals on countering Russia’s activity in the Sea of Azov, including the end of railroad passenger service.

Still waiting for a Westphalian citation showing us the Infrastructure Minister (and myself) is wrong.
