Ukraine and humanitarian aid. Philistine's perplexity Why does Ukraine refuse from Russian humanitarian aid under the aegis of ICRC? There are millions of citizens suffering in that East Ukrainian region. I don't believe that all of them are vicious separatists. They are just people occurred to live in wrong time in wrong place. I've heard that there are diabetic kids suffering and dying without medicine in Donetsk. I've heard Horlovka and Luhansk lack of food and water. Why do those human loving Ukrainian authorities prohibit helping them? And does it really matter where this aid comes from? I just see blood pictures of dead Ukrainians in various news reports every day. And every day they say about catastrophic situation in East Ukraine. And it looks like Poroshenko and his Gov. maintain consciously this situation so that those poor citizens would left their few possessions and ran away up hill and down dale. So that they could seize this land and do what they want there. All in all I haven't heard about smallest attempt of negotiations. Instead lots of furious Ukrainian trolls on Ukrainian TV appeal to eliminate all settlements in Ukrainian East. Looks like Kiev wrote off the people of entire region. They aren't paid their set wages and pensions. They are refused in evacuation. They are refused even in mere humanitarian aid to keep body and soul together. I really don't understand.
