There is MAJOR trouble in Ukraine that has long been predicted but you would be forgiven for not knowing that anything was going on by reading western MSM.
It looks to me as if Poroshenko is trying to control the situation while his PM Yatsenyuk is behind the fascists
The only way Kiev is going to control this is to mount another "anti-terrorist operation". But this means fighting on two fronts.
Here is a collection of stories from a variety of sources
Right Sector Clash With Police Threatens Government Split in Kiev
- Right Sector attacked police with machine guns and rocket launchers, killing officers and civilians
- Instead of being promptly shut down significant political forces are taking its side
- The clash was a turf war between rival cigarette smugglers one of which is a Right Sector financier

On
Saturday, Ukraine’s neofascist Right Sector (Praviy Sektor or PS)
militia movement attacked police in the western, Transcarpathian
village of Mukachevo. Taking place far from the Donbass front, this
was another case of the PS marauding across Ukraine’s countryside
trying to raise money in order to boost its hopes of building a
totalitarian, xenophobic, and exclusivist greater Ukraine; one
‘superior to Europe’ and antagonistic towards Russia.
In
particular, PS was involved in a settling of scores between two
Transcarpatian criminal ‘authorities’ who are
simultaneously deputies in the Supreme Rada – the parliament
of the ‘new democratic Ukraine’. One of kingpin-deputies, Viktor
Baloga, is said to finance PS. A relationship PS struck up an in
order to help finance its recruiting, propaganda, political, and
military efforts.
In
the battle that ensued – with PS using machine guns and a grenade
launcher – several police and several civilians were killed and
wounded, with up to 14 casualties, according to some reports.
Security
forces flooded in but instead of attacking and arresting the PS
fighters, negotiations ensued; some of them involving directly or
indirectly Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko himself and his
Interior Minister, Arsen Avakov, who implemented the policy of
forming volunteer battalions to include a large component of
neofascists, given their ‘patriotic enthusiasm.’
The
PS continues to refuse to disarm and convened demonstrations in Kiev
at the presidential administration and some ten provincial capitols,
and other neofascist groups and their battalions are backing PS.
Even
the recently fired head of Ukraine’s intelligence service, the
Security Service of Ukraine (SBU), Valentin Nalyvaichenko,
backed PS against the Porosehnko-led factions of the Maidan regime.
For in post-Orange Revolution Ukraine, ‘patriotism,’ which often
morphs into ultra-natioalism and neo-fascism, trumps everything –
from criminality to rule of law to democratic procedure.
It
is now clear that the Maidan regime’s policy of allowing PS and
like-minded elements to enter the corridors of power, the halls of
parliament, and staffs of the army and National Guard and arming tens
of neofascist-dominated battalions to the teeth in order to avoid
negotiating with the Donbass rebels has been proved a
catastrophic failure.
Ukraine
is now faced with even greater political instability than before.
President
Poroshenko is now faced with the Hobson’s choice of either
disarming PS and other armed neo-fascist groups and their
‘battalions’ in order to establish the Maidan regime’s monopoly
over the means of coercion or fashioning yet another compromise
with neofascism.
In
the event he chooses the former, there is a risk of a second civil
war on Ukrainian territory and the rise of a neo-fascist insurgency.
In
the event he chooses the latter, he will only increase the likelihood
of a neofascist-led coup or revolt down the road.
Either
way, Poroshenko’s life and that of the Maidan regime are now at
grave risk.
Indeed,
there is some reason to conclude that the conflict in Mukachevo and
its broadening could lead to a regime split.
For
now, the split is contained within the legislative branch, with the
Petro Poroshenko Bloc (PPB) backing a crackdown on PS, Prime Minister
Arsen Yatsenyuk’s National Front taking an ambiguous position,
calling for personnel changes in Transcarpathia and the Customs
Police, and the three smaller factions (the ultra-nationalist Radical
Party, the moderately nationalist party Self-Help, and the Yulia
Tymoshenko’s national chauvinist Fatherland party) backing PS’s
call for MVD chief Arsen Avakov’s resignation (Link).
The
questions are whether the National Front will abandon the coalition
with the PPB and three small factions and whether the split
will extend into the executive branch.
Finally,
will the conflict spark high-ranking defections to the
ultra-nationalist opposition camp led by PS and other
ultra-nationalist groups outside parliament like the Svoboda Party,
the Social-National Assembly, the Black Committee, Revansh
and others.
As
I have tried to warn for years, Ukraine and all other post-Soviet
states (with the exception of the Baltic states on some parameters)
are not very different from each other, suffering from excess of
nationalism, intolerance, corruption, criminality, conflictive
political cultures, and authoritarianism.
In
such countries, when the regimes falter, coups and revolutions follow
close behind. Where coups and revolutions come, often so do political
chaos, economic dislocation, civil war and state failure.
Thus,
the EU’s haste to maneuver Ukraine into an association agreement in
November 2013 with strong American backing along the West’s
encouragement of the Maidan revolution instead of a negotiated
transition in Kiev have been nothing short of catastrophic for
Ukraine and the EU.
Relations
with their most powerful neighbor – Russia – are strained to the
breaking point and fraught with the risk of war. Moreover, the
instability wrought in Ukraine rather than complicating matters just
on Russia’s borders is now reaching the EU’s borders.
The
contraband cigarette trade that was the object of the dispute between
two Rada deputies/Transcarpathian criminal kingpins in ‘democratic
Ukraine’ went across state borders into Hungary and
perhaps Romania.
The
village of Mukachevo, where the fatal gun battle took place and where
PS fighters disappeared into the hills is close to Ukraine’s
borders with Hungary, Romania, Poland, and Slovakia.
In
closing, I would suggest that the American, Canadian, Polish and
other military trainers and advisors walking the lands of the
neo-fascists in Lviv, Volyn, Ternopol and other places in western
(and elsewhere in) Ukraine start aggressively weeding out the
neo-fascists among their charges and begin training Ukraine’s army
and government to do battle with their real enemy – Ukrainian
ultra-nationalism – before it is too late, if it is not already.
I
would also suggest to those focused exclusively on expanding American
power, especially when it comes at Russia’s expense – to people
like Deputy Secretary of State Victoria Nuland – that they resign
and repent before the ‘mothers, children, and grandmothers’ of
‘the Maidan’ – where, like in the rest of Ukraine, in her
incompetent view, neo-fascists have never been.
Poroshenko to Be ‘Executed in Dark Basement’ After Coup – Right Sector
Ukrainian
President Petro Poroshenko should be worried, as things are getting
hot on the streets of Kiev amid the standoff between the Ukrainian
government and the Neo-Nazi radical group Right Sector.
15
July, 2015
The
extremist group said Poroshenko won't be able to flee from the
country in the event of a coup, as did his predecessor Viktor
Yanukovych in February of 2014, the Voice of America (VOA) reported,
citing Artem Skoropadsky, the press secretary of the Right Sector.
"If
there's a new revolution, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko and
his supporters won't be able to escape from the country, as did the
previous president. They can't expect anything, but an execution in
some dark basement carried out by a group of young Ukrainian soldiers
or members of the National Guard," Skoropadsky warned the
current president, as quoted by VOA.
Last
week, the Right Sector openly challenged the government after a
violent skirmish with police in the town of Mukachevo. The incident
left three men dead and 13 wounded.
Kiev
declared a manhunt operation. In response, the Right Sector staged
rallies across Ukrainian cities, including Kiev, demanding the
resignation of Interior Minister Arsen Avakov.
Currently,
there is a split between the Kiev regime and the union of several
nationalist groups led by the Right Sector. Interestingly, a year and
a half ago, Petro Poroshenko's team and the Right Sector worked
together during the Maidan protests ousting previous president
Yanukovych.
After
the last year coup, the nationalists went to Donbass planning to
annihilate Donbass residents who opposed Poroshenko's government.
Kiev was actively supporting the nationalists fighting in the eastern
part of the country, but the government never had full control over
these radical groups.
Having
started collaborating with the Right Sector for the Donbass war, the
Ukrainian government is now in some kind of a trap. On the one hand,
Kiev needs radicals to wage the war in the east, on the other hand,
the Right Sector discredits Ukraine for its Western partners. The
nationalists ended up with lots of arms and battlefield experience,
and now they're strong enough to openly challenge the government.
The
Right Sector poses a threat of further escalation. Citing the group's
spokesperson, Der Spiegel said that the nationalists were ready to
send two armed formations to Kiev. Two of their units are stationed
in Donbass, and there are 18 or 19 more battalions awaiting orders.
On
Monday during a briefing of the National Council for Security and
Defense, Poroshenko demanded that the Interior Ministry, the Security
Service of Ukraine, and other law enforcement agencies disarm all
illegal armed groups operating in Ukraine. The Right Sector refused
to lay down arms saying it is not an illegal armed formation, but "a
volunteer corps which protects the sovereignty and territorial
integrity of the Ukrainian nation."
The
Right Sector was formed as a coalition of nationalist and neo-Nazi
organizations during the Maidan protests in Kiev at the end of 2013.
In November 2014, Russia's Supreme Court blacklisted the Right Sector
as an extremist organization and banned its activity in Russia.
Earlier, Russia launched a criminal case against leader Dmitry Yarosh
for public incitement of terrorism.

Updated: The Right Sector took the city of Lvov under its control
Translated
by Kristina Rus
Extremist organization "Right sector" had set up checkpoints around the city of Lvov and is de facto controlling the city, said the representative of the office of the Right Sector in the Lvov region, Taras Kuzyak.
"Our organization is on call going to all emergency situations [has taken over the function of municipal police - KR], de facto controls the city to avoid provocations. To this end, we set up roadblocks around the city," - Kuzyak said Tuesday to UNN agency.
The Radicals of the "Right sector" deny involvement in the bombings near police stations in Lvov, which occurred Tuesday morning, and are confident that the organizers of the terrorist attacks are "anti-Ukrainian forces".
The first explosion occurred on Tuesday near a police station in Lvov, when the officer of the Railway district police department unlocked the office on the Plugovaya street. According to the Interior Ministry, a mine was detonated. The injured lieutenant was hospitalized, his condition is estimated as critical.
Later in the day in Lvov there was another explosion, this time near a local police station, wounding inspector of the district department.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine tied the two morning explosions at police stations in Lvov with the events in the Transcarpathian region, where over the weekend there was a skirmish between the police and the radicals of the "Right sector". The department has classified both the explosion as a terrorist attack.
The leader of the faction "Self-help" [Lvov based "Samopomosh" which favors decentralisation of Ukraine and more autonomy for Lvov - KR] in the Ukrainian Parliament, Oleg Berezyuk proposed to hold an urgent meeting of the council of the coalition and hear the report of the Minister of Internal Affairs, the head of the SBU and the Prosecutor General in connection with the bombings in Lvov.
***
Update from Searchnews.info:
The public in Ukraine is inclined to think that the explosions are the work of the nationalists from the “Right sector”, who wanted to take control of the cultural capital of Ukraine [it has become a cultural center due to its Polish and Jewish heritage before it has been 'purified' by the banderites - KR], where they enjoy great support among the local population.
Recently it became known that in the fight against the current government of Ukraine the “Right sector” is supported by battalions “Azov”, “Tornado” and “OUN”.
The Right Sector consists of about 20 battalions, led by Dmitry Yarosh. Such a force is enough to take control of a few regions of Western Ukraine. The ATO can be started on two front.

What are the real prospects of the "Right sector" in the current situation of direct conflict with the authorities?
All the dreams of the all-Ukrainian "Maidan 3.0", which would become even more "right" than the "second" still remain just dreams. Moreover, given how hesitant was the all-mighty "big and scary" "Right sector" in the most critical hours after the shootout in Mukachevo, we can confidently say – the authorities have a significant power advantage. So what, a protest at the AP (even without the burning tires), so what, tents popped up in different cities – but is this what some expected, and others were afraid of?
What about all of this: "The Right Sector is transferring units from the front to Western Ukraine", "all Right Sector personnel is in full combat readiness"?.. Apparently, not feeling the public support, without real power advantage, the "Right sector" decided not go for the seizure of power in Kiev. Moreover, "pravoseki" [Right Sector members], being well aware of the internal situation and views of their colleagues in the new Ukrainian power politics, clearly knew that no one will play games with them and instead of "Berkut" with traumatic shotguns circa 2013, the government will simply bring out all the armored vehicles – "Saxons" and "Humvees" — which has still not reached the front just for such a situation and without unnecessary discussions will sweep all the radicals with a fire barrage, as the "agents of the Kremlin, seeking to strike the warring country in the back."
However, the situation is such that time has accelerated significantly and it is playing against the Right Sector. Every day and hour ushers the moment of the inevitable large-scale repressions – and worst of all, the Right Sector understands that there is no need for any dirt: illegal arsenals of small arms and heavy weapons in the possession of the "righties" are such that it's time for Kiev to seek NATO's help in fighting the new terrorist threat. Arrest any Right Sector organization in any town – and you are sure to find machine guns and explosives.
And everyone understands this.
But it's a problem. A weapon is an instrument of force, self-defence, the seizure of power, finally! But if it turns out that the Right Sector is not ready for mutiny, the stockpiled weapons instead of the "trump card" become a "suitcase without a handle" and a "hot potato". To use it makes no sense, but to keep is more risky, it is easy to go to jail. However, no one will get rid of it.
Zugzwang? Actually, no.
The only logical solution for right-wing radicals becomes "privatization" of some particular region where they would feel in relative or absolute security. Kind of a "Pravo-Sich". Of course, it is desirable that it is within Ukraine's borders as nobody will welcome banderites anywhere abroad (Canada is too far [home of Bandera grandson and a largest Ukrainian diaspora]), and preferably in a big city, and not in the damp underground caves of the Carpathian mountains.
By very simple reasoning we find that Lvov best fits the role of "Pravo-Sich".
There is traditionally a high percentage of sympathisers of the radical nationalists, here they can recruit new cadres, a long-standing dialogue has been established with many of the power structures (if not fusion). And there is another significant factor – the desire of Galicia to expand its own managerial and financial autonomy. More than once the Galicians lost during redistribution of power. Yushchenko of Sumy, Timoshenko of Dnepropetrovsk, Yanukovich of Donetsk, and Poroshenko of Vinnitsa did not share much with them. Galicians are always in demand to aid a Maidan, but not as much when it comes to distributing portfolios. Kiev is too much to bite for Lvov. Is it not better in this case to arrange a informal autonomy by distancing from the dictate of the center? It is best done by negotiating with Kiev, using a few dozen thousand fighters as a card.
[Decentralization is particularly desperately needed in the current economic crisis, due to the fact that all Ukrainian regions only get 20% of their revenue and have to transfer 80% to the center - Kiev - KR]
That the Right Sector is moving in this direction is clearly shown by the recent bombings of police stations in Lvov, after which it was stated that the town is taken under the control of the "righties". "In order to avoid further terrorist attacks" (of course!) Right Sector checkpoints were put up around the city. What is the status of the informal (and possibly armed) searches of personal property? That's right – completely illegal. But in Lvov no one said a word. The analogy with Donetsk will be correct – there the first checkpoints of the militia have also been accepted as a necessity. Each region has its own "militia".
Most likely, terrorist attacks will continue. Everyone will understand who is behind them, but the Right Sector will loudly declare that only it can provide security in the region. So it was in the 90s: the bandits offered to provide security to businesses, otherwise the business was on fire and exploding. By such blackmail an agreement will be reached with the government, according to which "pravoseki" will become guarantors of peaceful life of the city, and therefore all persecution will be stopped and menacing arrest decrees from Kiev will be openly or secretly sabotaged on the ground. In turn, the Right Sector will chase away all the Kiev appointees, branding them as corrupt and "unpatriotic". Everyone is happy – elites will sit in their chairs without the risk to be deposed and the Right Sector will march with guns and keep order.
The only way for Kiev to regain control of the region is another ATO. But a war on two fronts, and even with a decrease of a significant portion of its Western mobilization potential, Ukraine is unlikely to even dare to start. Withdraw troops from Donbass – Mariupol or Slavyansk will have to be abandoned. And in general, punitive actions of Kiev in Galicia would cause such a monstrous cognitive dissonance that it will almost certainly lead to the overall collapse of the entire modern Ukrainian mythology.
It's possible that it's even for the better. Right radicals will get their reservation, beyond which open criminal cases will be awaiting them. A large part of all the extreme nationalist element from all over Ukraine will descend on "Pravo-Sich", which means in the Dnepr, Kharkov and Odessa it will be much easier to breathe and safer to live. And Kiev will also have to find a new basis for their own identity, because the outdated Galician underground nationalism will become something indecent and criminally punishable, like Wahhabism in Russia. Anyway, there will be a substantial cooling of senses in a tangled love story of the Ukrainian people with their Bandera "half".
KR: The only thing standing in the way of such a scenario are the ambitions of the new generation of proud Dnepropetrovsk, Mariupol and Kharkov radical nationalists infected with the Galician bug. Judging by the events of the last year they can not be expected to rationally and peacefully surrender and move to Galicia, which is unfortunate for them because they are outnumbered. But the swing is about to go the other way.

Ukrainian prime minister Yatsenyuk defends the Right Sector attack on police

| Arseny Yatsenyuk, Prime Minister of Ukraine (in the middle) |
WASHINGTON
(AP) -- Ukraine's prime minister pushed back against a pair of forces
threatening to undermine his fragile government, likening members of
Ukraine's parliament to "lunatics" while defending
a nationalist militia that is locked in a standoff with police.
***
As Yatsenyuk pushed for
more U.S. investment, security forces in western Ukraine were locked
in conflict with the nationalist Right Sector militia, which has
accused local police of smuggling contraband across the border with
Poland, Hungary and Slovakia. On Saturday, the group launched
a deadly gun-and-grenade attack on police, sparking an ongiong
standoff, and on Monday the group briefly took a 6-year-old
boy hostage.
But the prime minister,
in his remarks to the AP, appeared to echo the group's accusations
against police, while also denouncing violations of the law by any of
the parties.
"It
wasn't about the Right Sector. This is about corruption and
smuggling and arms on the street," Yatsenyuk said. "They
supported smugglers and contraband, and everyone will be brought to
justice for the crimes that have been committed."
Whoops?
In
unusually honest language,
The Times has
expertly summarized the
latest display of “western values” in Ukraine:
Two
quick points:
- As we’ve written previously, Right Sector cop killin’ sprees should not surprise anyone. Wise men and women haven been warning about it since March, 2014.
- Apparently The Times didn’t want to frighten its upper-crust readership with an actual photograph of Right Sector. Will an Instagram photo of an old man and a (Swiss?) flag work? “Sure,” according to the Times’ photo editor, who should be fired for utter incompetence.
Soldiers of the 2nd Battalion, 17th Tank Brigade of the UAF announced they will not follow their commanders' orders in a video address to President Petro Poroshenko. The tankers called on the president to deal with "the anarchy which is unfolding in the army," stating that over the course of the year their unit was never rotated, and when the brigade commander decided he had enough, "he simply shrugged his shoulders and went on leave," RIA Novosti reports. "We don't give a sh*t about our superiors, just as they don't give a sh*t about us--we'll ignore their orders and we won't give up our weapons, you shouldn't try to disarm us. We're ready to demobilize and we'd be ready to give up our weapons in that situation, but if they try to take us by force, we'll fight them", the soldiers said. The soldiers also complained about their shoddy equipment. "Look at how we are dressed. We're look like the homeless," the soldiers said, noting that the only support they receive comes from volunteers. "If even in March some 50% of us would have been willing to remain in service, now it's 0%," the soldiers said. The sixth wave of Ukrainian mobilization started in June. The Ukrainian authorities are planning to induct 100-150 thousand people into the military. On March 25, Poroshenko signed an order to increase the armed forces' size to 250 thousand. However, mobilizations invariably encounter young men's mass refusals to serve. Evasion, including through emigration (there are 1.2 million Ukrainians of military age in Russia) is now a widespread phenomenon. Kiev reacted by increasing penalties for evading service, which now include severe jail terms.
