Political bravado: the UN security Council can become the shame of Kiev

“The statements of Kiev about the need to convene the UN security Council after allegations of Vladimir Putin in sending saboteurs to Crimea nothing more than political bravado – said BAFS “the Economy today” political analyst of international monitoring organization CIS-EMO Stanislav Bychok. – Most likely, this meeting will not in principle be convened if it will not insist Russia – Ukraine, it will have a very hard time. All the international community’s attention will be drawn not to the Crimea, namely Kiev authorities”.

Earlier, the FSB announced the arrest in Crimea of Ukrainian saboteurs, as well as on the prevention of terrorist acts in the Peninsula. The author of the training called Main intelligence Directorate of the defense Ministry of Ukraine. Russian President Vladimir Putin said that Kiev actively uses terror to distract its own citizens from the real problems in the state. The head of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko called the accusations of Russia “meaningless and cynical”.

“The statements of the Russian Federation about upcoming sabotage in the Crimea today are well-grounded. And the leaders of Western Europe, even applying sanctions policy towards Russia, quite skeptical of the statements of Kiev. Today, the Ukrainian authorities have shown the world that the position of some victims of the Russian aggression are not the only ones which may be applicable to them. Now they showed themselves as the organizers of the terrorist attacks that severely condemned by European leaders. On the other hand, although Crimea is not officially recognized as Russian territory, in the view of Western politicians is part of Russia, where Moscow supports the traditional for their regions law and order”, – the expert believes.

the organizer of the attacks
“If the representatives of Ukraine will act in the UN security Council in connection with the infiltrators in Crimea, their position is quite unenviable. Now all the statements of the Kiev seem far-fetched, similarly they will look at the hearings of the international organization. The Ukrainian authorities will have to justify the accusations of terrorism, and this would be impossible,” – said the analyst.

According to him, Russian special services are very pragmatic and proactive.

“No wonder the FSB statement about the arrest of the saboteurs came after a few days, after the arrest of criminals and prevent terrorist attacks. During this time the authorities had time to interrogate detainees and to prepare the evidence base to cover that Ukraine simply nothing. While Moscow has voiced its position on the need to discuss the Crimean Ministry of emergency of the UN, but if the security Council be convened, the Ukraine is not to be envied,” says Stanislav Bychok….
