Maidan Community Sector, Lviv: Dear friends!
War, not the expected peace arrived at the doorstep of Great Britain and France when they gave up Czechoslovakia to Hitler in 1938. War is happening right here at home and not in faraway Europe – the United States were harshly reminded about this at Pearl Harbor in 1942. War descended on Ukraine and thus is now much closer to Paris and Berlin, because Europe and the US haven’t supported Georgia in 2008. War showed up in the homes of Dutch, British, French, German, Australian families because Europe and the US weren’t courageous enough to lend a helping hand to Ukraine in 2014. It is impossible to run away from war and overwhelming aggression, it is impossible to buy yourself off. The war will catch up with you if you don’t stand up to it with utmost determination.

September 7 – If the “truce” in southeastern Ukraine ends in the same way as all previous ones, we will have no other option but to impose martial law, said Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk. “Do I have trust in the Russian Federation and its President? Absolutely not. Has President Putin changed his plans? No way. His plan is to pull Ukraine under the influence of Russia in any shape or form – to seize it with military actions, to exterminate it politically or destroy the state as a whole”.
September 7 – Russian troops and terrorists continue to shell the suburbs of Mariupol with mine throwers, informs “Azov” battalion. This is a Russian-style “truce”.
