Putin left the summit

The President of Russia was provided with a cold reception at the G20 summit in Australia. In Ukraine, they are afraid of the activation of battles

Russian President Vladimir Putin ahead of schedule left the Big Twenty summit in the Australian city of Brisben. At a press conference before departure, he stated that the summit was held in a "friendly and business" atmosphere. Putin arranged a final press conference at a time when the rest of the G20 summit gathered at a working breakfast.

Putin explained his decision to leave Brisben before the release of the final commander by the loading of his working schedule and the need to "sleep a little." The day before, the spokesman for the President of Russia denied the information that Putin could leave the summit ahead of schedule.

The former partners of Russia in the "Big Eight", from where Moscow was excluded in connection with its role in the Ukrainian crisis, was positioned by Putin with acute criticism. The leaders of Australia, the USA and Japan again called on Russia to "stop destabilizing Eastern Ukraine." They disagreed with the Russian annexation of Crimea and announced the need to bring to the court those who are responsible for the catastrophe in the east of Ukraine of the Malaysian MH17 aircraft and the death of about three hundred people on board the Boeing-777.

US President Barack Obama met today with the leaders of the EU countries and discussed the prospects for joint opposition to Russia's policy in relation to Ukraine. This discussion took place after the Russian leader left Australia.

The Australian press notes that Putin at the summit was a cold reception. Applications of Western leaders are given: the words of the US President Barack Obama that "Russian aggression against Ukraine is a threat to the world", Australian Prime Minister Tony Ebbot that Putin was trying to restore tsarist Russia, British Prime Minister James Cameron, that Putin is undermining the interests of Russia. Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper, as reported, said Putin approaching him: "I will bring your hand, but I have only one thing:" You must leave Ukraine. "

The Australian Federation of Ukrainian organizations held a protest in Brisben against Putin's arrival.

The leader of the Federation Stefan Romanev said in an interview with Radio Liberty:

- This action gathered people from all over Australia, not only from the Ukrainian community, there were representatives of other communities, including Russian, there were people from New Zealand - they gathered together to make it clear to Mr. Putin: "You are not happy with Australia, and we want you to go back." We believe that Mr. Putin's behavior does not comply with international standards and values. He needs to give an answer regarding Russian aggression in Ukraine. Although he and his government say that they are not involved, there are enough evidence that demonstrates that Russian soldiers are involved and help terrorists. Another issue also concerns the tragedy of the aircraft shot down over the East of Ukraine.

I think the "big twenty" sent him a clear message. Mr. Putin looked isolated during the summit, one could see how people were trying to avoid him, there is a video of how Mr. Putin sits on his own at the dining table, no one wants to be connected with him, we know that he had left before, and we understand that at such an international forum as “big twenty”, if something is not clear, his argument, that he should go to work for a long time to work tomorrow, looks to work for a long time to work. funny. This is a very miserable explanation. But he flew away, and I think most of the Australians are very happy about this.

We tried to declare two important things: the first - he probably should not have participated at all, and the second - for those countries that Mr. Putin really wanted to be here - they should act more actively. Sanctions are very important. To strengthen sanctions so that the Russian economy feels them. But we are very afraid that in the near future a Russian invasion may occur. Ukraine may have the opportunity to regroup during the ceasefire. But now we should not see conversations, but actions, and these actions should be quick. The Australian government, led by Tony Ebbot, demonstrated firmness. He described it all as we have perceived for some time: Mr. Putin is trying to create a new world order, trying to reconstruct the Soviet Union. The Prime Minister told him straight: do not try to recreate tsarist Russia.

​

On social networks, people spoke different way that Putin should go away, and they are glad that he had left. And I think that Putin’s stay in Australia was not particularly pleasant. He was criticized, subjected to ostracism, and, I think, he felt pressure, it turned out to be too strong to stay, given that the main theme of the summit was not a question about the climate, but Putin himself, the Russian aggression, a shot down liner. What was supposed to be an economic forum has become a political forum. And he underestimated this political forum. He probably thought that he knew everything, but he could believe that the pressure would be so strong, ”said Stefan Romanev.

The Reuters agency quotes Russian experts - the oppositionly configured Stanislav Belkovsky and the Demollevsky, the configured Fedor Lukyanov, now predicting, after the cold reception of Putin in Australia, the tightening of Russia's position in the Ukrainian conflict and the intensification of battles.

After the results of the Australian summit in Kyiv, disappointing for the Russian leader, they do not exclude that Vladimir Putin can authorize a sharp aggravation of the situation in the armed conflict in eastern Ukraine, especially since the day before Ukrainian intelligence received information from several sources about the probable attack of separatists and units of the regular Russian army on November 16-17. According to the director of the Kiev Institute of Transformation of the Society of Oleg Soskin , “after tough conversations with world leaders in Australian Brisben, Putin is in a state of uncontrolled rage, so in the next hours it should be expected that he will give the Russian terrorists to seize at least Melitopol and Debaltsevo.”

The latest data from the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine indicate that militants and the Russian military continue to prepare for offensive operations in the ATO zone. At the same time, over the past day, the number and intensity of the shelling of Ukrainian positions has decreased slightly, which may be associated with strong fogs in the eastern regions of Ukraine. The situation near the city of Happiness in the Lugansk region was reported by telephone by the commander of the first assault platoon of the Aidar battalion Dmitry Padalko:

“In the zone of our responsibility is quiet enough, the enemy’s artillery is still silent, only individual snipers work on their part. We are waiting, we look, we observe, because the situation is really very tense. There may be some attempts to provocations.”

As the speaker of the SNBOU Andrei Lysenko said at a briefing in Kyiv, about 30 shelling was recorded over the past day, most of all - near Debaltseve (Donetsk region), Popasnaya, the village of Lugansk and Pervomaisk (Lugansk Region):

“In the Debaltsevsky direction, terrorists from mortars, grenade launchers and small arms fired at the positions of ATO forces in the areas of Debaltseve, the mound of an acute grave and near the village of Nikishino, the Shakhtersky district of the Donetsk region. On the territory of the Donetsk airport, the militants from anti -aircraft plants at our positions. In addition, from anti -aircraft guns and anti -aircraft guns and anti -aircraft guns and anti -aircraft guns and anti -aircraft guns and anti -aircraft guns and anti Rifle weapons fired at our column of military equipment. ”

According to Lysenko, on Sunday morning, violating the requirements of international and Ukrainian legislation, a column of 74 trucks of the next so -called “humanitarian convoy” arrived from Russia to the Donbass. Nothing is known about the content of cargo and its appointment to the Ukrainian side. Border guards and customs officers made only visual observation of the passage of the cargo across the border, without fulfilling the control functions assigned to them. Moscow claims that the Russian column delivered electrical equipment and components, fuel and building materials to Donetsk and Lugansk. This is the seventh so -called “humanitarian convoy” sent by Russia to Donbass without the consent of official Kyiv.

Meanwhile, in the village of Grabovo near Donetsk, work began on the removal of the wreckage of the Malaysian Boeing-777, which performed the flight Amsterdam-Kuala Lumpur and shot down on July 17, according to the Ukrainian Security Service, militants from the Russian anti-aircraft missile system "Buk". As a result of the attack, all 298 people were killed on board. It is reported that Dutch experts mark parts of the liner prepared for export with special paint, after which they will be described together with representatives of the so -called “DPR” and load on cars. The first car with fragments of the aircraft on Sunday arrived at the warehouse of the Pelageevka station in the Donetsk region. From there, in the railway car, the wreckage will be sent to Kharkov and only then, obviously, to Amsterdam, where the investigation of the plane crash continues. It is expected that the entire procedure for collecting and sending Boeing fragments will take at least 10 days.
