Translation: "What they're talking about is forbidding the entry of the other Kiselyov."
Nice little detail added to the TASS story (picked up from "Ukrainskaya Pravda") on the apparent mixup as Ukrainian authorities at Borispol Airport mistakenly blocked the entry to the country of longtime Ukrainian resident and television journalist Yevgeny Kiselyov. They appear to have mistaken him for Putin media crony Dmitry Kiselyov.
"Kiselyov's next programme is due to go on air on Friday."
So there's no real rush, I guess.
Via Reuters, "Charred tanks in Ukraine point to Russian involvement":
Reuters showed photographs of the two badly damaged tanks, one of which had lost its turret, to four independent military experts, who said they were of a type used exclusively by the Russian army.
At least one, they agreed, was a T-72BM - a Russian-made modification of a well known Soviet tank. This version of the tank, they said, is not known to have been exported.
"It is operated by the Russian Army in large numbers, but crucially it is not known to have been exported or operated outside of Russia," Joseph Dempsey, a military analyst for the London-based International Institute for Strategic Studies, wrote in late August when a tank like that was discovered on grainy footage of rebel convoy.
From Reuters:
Ukraine has complained to the World Trade Organisation (WTO) about a decision by Russia to ban imports of fruit and vegetables from the country, the agriculture ministry said on Thursday.
The ban, which came in force on Oct. 22, was the latest trade barrier erected by Russia in a trade and sanctions war linked to international tensions over Ukraine.
Russia said it was imposing the ban because there was a suspicion that the goods are from the European Union and were being imported through Ukraine to evade Russian measures against the EU.
The Ukrainian ministry said Russia had violated international and bilateral agreements and did not submit any request to Kiev before it imposed the ban.
It said Ukrainian losses could total $17 million by the end of this year.
