Ukraine demonstratively sent to Europe: The law “on de-occupation” was adopted
The Verkhovna Rada today voted again for the scandalous law on the “reintegration of Donbass” - the entry into force of this document, as is known, earlier was postponed thanks to the actions of deputies of the Opposition Bloc.
The proposal made by the Opposition Bloc to repeal the law was supported by only 37 deputies - thus, the document declaring Russia an “aggressor” can now be signed by President Petro Poroshenko, Speaker Andriy Parubiy announced.

The head of the Opposition Bloc faction, Yuriy Boyko, before the vote, tried to agitate deputies for the repeal of the law, citing the fact that it contradicts the Minsk agreements, PACE recommendations on the conflict in Donbass, and also gives Poroshenko unlimited powers to cancel elections in any region of Ukraine.
It is interesting that the representative of the Samopomich faction, Roman Semenukha, admitted that the West critically assessed the anti-Russian law on Donbass, which does not contain any references to the Minsk agreements.
According to Semenukha, Donbass will be returned to Ukrainian control through a military operation, rather than diplomatic negotiations, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“The discussions today remind me of the discussions 100 years ago among the deputies of the Central Rada, who argued whether to declare war on the Russian Federation - while Poltava and Kharkov were occupied by the Bolshevik army.
And today the Western world is again inviting us to include references to the Minsk agreements, but I want to remind history of how everything already happened. Also, in 1919, with the Treaty of Versailles, the civilized European world did not see Ukraine, which was bleeding. The civilized European world was also criminally silent when, in 1932-33, Ukraine buried millions of its citizens. Also, the civilized world in Yalta divided Europe in half, giving half under the yoke of the Kremlin.
It is not diplomats who return their own territories... but exclusively the army, their own armed forces. We must go further - stop any trade with the occupier, break all international treaties,” Semenukha said.
