Ukrainian authorities reinstated conscription in a bid to deal with the deteriorating security situation in the country.
Oleksandr Turchynov, the acting president, reintroduced compulsory military service in a decree signed on Thursday, a day after he admitted that security forces have effectively lost control of two eastern regions to a pro-Russian rebellion.
The decree cited “the rising force of armed pro-Russian units and the taking of public administration buildings… which threaten territorial integrity”.
Former President Viktor Yanukovych abolished conscription in 2013, as part of a reform aimed at switching to a professional military. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/ukraine/10802437/Ukraine-to-restore-conscription-after-admitting-it-has-lost-eastern-front.html
I suspect that the Russian stooge Yanukovych abolished conscription knowing what the Russian future plans for Ukraine were.
Ukraine’s moral position is downgraded by the imposition of military enslavement on its people.

The Harper government is about as pro-market as the Obama administration. Terence Corcoran: The thugs in Canada’s wireless market might make Putin proud Even though the five years is up and the obligation no longer exists, the Harper government has unofficially intervened in the Mobilicity court proceeding and has injected itself into the courtroom. The intervention landed last Friday in a Globe and Mail report that contained a warning and threat from an unnamed “senior government source.” The source said that “If Telus doesn’t drop efforts to acquire spectrum set aside for new entrants, the Harper government is prepared to change the rules of the upcoming wireless auction that could effectively bar Telus or any incumbent from acquiring that spectrum.”
This right after the government basically part-nationalized the rail-roads. Most anti-market fedgov since Trudeau. That’s a fact. http://business.financialpost.com/2014/05/01/canada-wireless-market-telus/
What’s the solution ?
Deep subject but the answer is not that elusive. Eliminate 90% of the EPA. Eliminate all subsidies for green energy and concentrate on making all energy cheaper for industry and consumers. Eliminate the IRS and replace with a flat tax, individual and corporate, no rebates for anyone and no loopholes on net profit. Bring in Tort reform. Loser pays, no exceptions. Cut federal employees by 5 % every year in every department for the next 5 years. Tax freedom for 5 years for any corporation bringing their outsourced business back to American soil. (based on value and number of employees) All international federal aid by referendum only. Make all Federal lobbying illegal. Eliminate Obamacare and give all healthcare back to the individual states to implement as they see fit. Eliminate Federal involvement in education, it’s not their mandate. All Unions optional as in right to work states and all union funds transparent by law. Eliminate all tax exemptions for all lobby groups. Cut all unearned entitlements by 5 % a year over the next 5 years.
Much more but it’s late and I’m tired. Since today’s politicians are bought and sold by lobbyists, the solutions are just a unachievable pipe dream. Which is a pity because the country is on its death bed. Numbers don’t lie : http://www.usdebtclock.org/index.html
Anti-Terorismi Operats’iya Slavians’k:
“Describing the offensive as ‘the active phase of the anti-terrorist operation’, [Interior Minister Arsen] Avakov said its goals were simple – ‘free the hostages, lay down their arms and free administrative buildings, and restore the normal functioning of the town’s administration’.
“‘Against Ukraine’s special forces, terrorists used heavy artillery, including grenade launchers and portable anti-aircraft missile launchers. One pilot is dead and there are wounded,’ he posted on his Facebook page.
“Pro-Russian separatists in Slaviansk, the eastern Ukrainian where the rebels are most firmly in control, described the operation as ‘large-scale’, and said they had taken one pilot prisoner.
“The fighting began at 4 a.m. (0100 GMT), officials and local residents said. Ukrainian troops could be in seen in armoured personnel carriers in a southern suburb of Slaviansk.”
