Hungary Vetoes NATO Statement on Ukraine Over Minority Rights
Citat:
Hungary’s government blocked a joint declaration by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization on Ukraine after failing to convince its allies to include a reference to ethnic minorities living in the former Soviet state.
NATO members rejected “several proposals to include clauses that would force Ukraine to give back rights appropriated from the Hungarian community,” Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said in a statement Wednesday before a scheduled visit by Russian President Vladimir Putin to Budapest.
Hungary’s reservations relate to a law passed in April that expanded the use of the Ukrainian language across state administration and media.
Much of Ukraine’s population still speaks Russian, even though Ukrainian has been the sole official language since deadly protests ousted Kremlin-backed leader Viktor Yanukovych in 2014. Thousands of people living near its western border also speak Hungarian.

OSCE Representative: Troop Withdrawal In Eastern Ukraine A 'Big Step Forward'
Citat:
Många goda nyheter.
Kyiv and Russia-backed separatists have begun withdrawing troops and weapons from a front-line area in eastern Ukraine, as part of a plan to end the Donbas region's five-year conflict.
Martin Sajdik, the special representative of the Chairperson-in-Office in Ukraine for the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), said on October 29 that the sides "renewed the disengagement of forces and hardware" in the town of Zolote in the eastern Luhansk region, and "continued negotiations on the renewal of disengagement" in the nearby town of Petrivske.
"Thus, the sides, literally by stepping backwards, have today made a big step forward," Sajdik said in a statement.
Earlier, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Vadym Prystayko said the planned withdrawal in Zolote was "taking place right now," adding: "We are beginning [the process] today."
Rodion Miroshnik, a separatist official in the Luhansk region, wrote on his Telegram channel that the pullout was underway on the separatists' side.

Ukraine Corruption Concerns Stall IMF Bailout
Fund wants president to recoup billions—including money that vanished from a supporter’s bank
Ukraine has officially won the title of the most corrupt country in the world
Ukraine Corruption Concerns Stall IMF Bailout
Fund wants president to recoup billions—including money that vanished from a supporter’s bank
The International Monetary Fund has put off a bailout for Ukraine because it is worried the country’s president won’t recoup billions of dollars allegedly looted from banks—including one once controlled by a close supporter—according to people familiar with the negotiations.https://www.wsj.com/articles/ukraine-corruption-concerns-stall-imf-bailout-11572535061
The IMF told President Volodymyr Zelensky he must aggressively pursue the missing money to deliver on his vow to clean up a financial system sapped by fraud, money laundering and theft.
The fund hinted at these concerns when it said it had delayed approval of the new bailout in September. IMF officials found “shortcomings in the legal framework, pervasive corruption, and large parts of the economy dominated by inefficient state-owned enterprises or by oligarchs,” Ron van Rooden, the fund’s mission chief for the country, said at the time.
/…/
Many foreign investors are likely to withhold capital from the country until the IMF signals its confidence with new funding, the central bank officials acknowledged. Ukraine’s new request is likely larger than the $3.9 billion package approved last year, according to some of the people familiar with the negotiations.
The IMF, however, remains skeptical after a history of broken promises. Kyiv hasn’t successfully completed any of a series of IMF bailout packages over the past two decades, with systemic corruption at the heart of much of that failure, according to IMF records and officials.
“While there has been progress in setting up new institutions to fight corruption, tangible results have yet to be achieved,” Mr. van Rooden said.

Trump’s entire national security Cabinet unanimously supported it. But Trump hesitated. “He kept saying it . . . wasn’t worth pissing off Russia and what a bad country Ukraine was,” said the former senior White House official.

Trump är en gravt förvirrad man, det är inget nytt. Baserar man sin sk "dirt" om Biden och verklighetsuppfattning på en prorysk oligark som sitter i fängelse i Österrike och denne gör utsagor tillsammans med sin korrupte riksåklagare (med egentligt mål att befria oligarken Firtash) så har man liksom bett om att bli desinformerad. Det säger också en del om vem man umgås med, Manafort samarbetade med Firtash.
IMF lån eller ej- det är väl bara bra IMF kräver utbyte!
Pga goodwill under TYmoshenko/Yushenko lyckades Yanukovychklanen ta stora lån från IMF 2010.
2013: Yanukovychklanen söker IMF hjälp medan ekonomin rasar, nekas lån.
2014-2015 beviljas IMF lån, men inte senare. Poroshenko i egenskap som svag president i konstitutionen och minoritet i Rada, förmår inte göra så mycket när Yatseniuk regeringen avgår och alliansen spricker. Dock har ekonomin balanserats, och trots Rysslands sabotagekrig stärks Hryvna senare.
2019: Zelenskyi har ett land att styra, nånstans i bakgrunden finns oligarker, specifikt Kolomoisky men denne kan inte göra alltför mycket. Privatbank har vunnit caset mot Kolomoisky i UK, det anses vara förskingring i banken och Kolomoisky är skyldig banken 2+1(ränta)=3 miljarder USD.
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-ukraine-privatbank/privatbank-wins-london-appeal-in-lawsuit-against-ex-owners-idUSKBN1WU1JE UK case går emot Kolomoisky
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nationalization_of_PrivatBank Nationaliseringen.
Enligt myndigheterna fattades 5,6 miljarder USD i Privatbank vid nationaliseringen, skattebetalarna och pensionärerna har alltså fått betala ca 50 miljarder SEK redan. Tanken är att privatisera banken för högsta bud. SKulle Kolomisky istället lyckas upphäva nationaliseringen och överta Privatbank sätter han Ukraina i konkurs, knappast lämpligt.
Det har talats om att Kolomoisky "vill ha'' 2 miljarder USD i "skadestånd" från Ukrainska staten.
Eftersom IMF kräver en del reformer som villkor så ser jag inte riktigt hur Kolomoisky ska kunna vinna detta. Zelenskyi har klart intresse i att motstå honom.

Kanske inte så lyckat att utgå från vad Fria Tider skriver.
https://www.rferl.org/a/ukraine-bulgaria-angered-french-president-macron-migration-comments/30249877.html :
Citat:
In the interview with the magazine Valeurs Actuelles, Macron explained that he favored "quota-based migration" to an influx of illegal workers. He then added that he preferred legal migrants from Guinea or Ivory Coast to "clandestine networks of Bulgarians and Ukrainians."
Fortfarande inte helt lyckat uttalande från Macron men klart bättre än vad Fria Tider påstår att han sa.
