On April 14, another plenary meeting was held in Donetsk, attended by honorable guests from the Russian Federation, the Сhairman of the Veterans Union of the Crimean Republic's People's Militia Armen Martoyan and the master of sports of the international class, the absolute world record holder in powerlifting Mariyana Naumova.

On April 14, a solemn serving of membership cards to the working collective of the state enterprise "Comtel" was held. The event was attended by the Chairman of the DPR People's Council Denis Pushilin.

Ukraine continues sabotaging the negotiation process in Minsk, Denis Pushilin, the Chairman of the People's Council of the Donetsk People's Republic, stated in the programme "Parliamentary Herald" on the First Republican TV Channel.

As it was planned earlier, on April 11, another Ukrainian TPP, the Krivorozhskaya one, was stopped. The reason for the halt is the coal deficit, which the Ukrainian energy sector has been experiencing especially acute for about a month and a half due to institutionalized nationalistic antics on the demarcation line.

Ukraine is a law-governed state? The law is one for all, the law is above all, the rule of law... Where are the Ukrainian populists now, who so pathetically made all these speeches? Where are the European parliamentarians, who so vehemently defend Western values?

On April 12, in Minsk, a regular meeting of the Contact group on the peaceful settlement of the conflict in Donbass was held. The agenda included issues related to compliance with the ceasefire regime, as well as Ukraine's full transport blockade realization.

Ukrainian decommunization literally reached space. The Vice-Minister of the neighbouring country, Vyacheslav Kirilenko, offered Petro Poroshenko to postpone the Cosmonautics Day from April 12 to the next day. According to the Ukrainian official, the date of the holiday should coincide not with the first human space flight, but with the first ascent to orbit of the Ukrainian astronaut.

Serious concerns among the community are caused by the condition of the mines on the part of the Donbass territory controlled by Kiev. The coal mining industry of Ukraine has long been underfunded, which has had a detrimental effect on the mines condition, both abandoned and in the process of liquidation.

Poroshenko was able to effectively take his country into world leaders... on corruption in business. This is evidenced by the data of an international study conducted and published by the agency Ernst & Young. Earlier, the European Court of Auditors presented the 'independent' laurels of the most corrupt country.

One of the Mariupol TV channels was fined for showing the NTV broadcast, in which an alternative official point of view on the Ukraine and Donbass history was expressed. A breakaway from the generally accepted interpretation of history developed by the institutions of the 'post-Maidan' Ukraine, of course, could not go unpunished in a 'free' country.
