tiaraVillaRuby - Ramai
penunjuk perasaan yang besar turun ke jalan-jalan di ibu negara Rusia untuk
menuntut keamanan di Ukraine, dalam perhimpunan pem-bangkang terbesar dalam
setengah tahun.
Penganjur
pembangkang gagal menarik yang dijanjikan 50,000 untuk acara ter-sebut, tetapi
"terdapat kehadiran yang sangat tinggi," RT ini Anissa Naouai
dila-porkan dari pusat Moscow.
Pihak
berkuasa bandar dianggarkan jumlah kehadiran di 5,000, tetapi bilangan
disuarakan oleh monitor bebas - 26,000 - nampaknya lebih dipercayai, menurut
Naouai.
MOSCOW Sees thousands March for PEACE
in Eastern UKRAINE
. . .
Huge
crowds of protesters took to the streets of the Russian capital to demand peace
in Ukraine, in the biggest opposition rally in half a year.
The
opposition organizers failed to attract the promised 50,000 for the event, but
“there was a very high turnout,” RT’s Anissa Naouai reported from the center of
Moscow.
City
authorities estimated the turnout at 5,000, but the number voiced by inde-pendent
monitors – 26,000 – seems more believable, according to Naouai.
Penunjuk
perasaan dibawa Ukraine, Rusia, dan bendera pembangkang, sambil me-laungkan
"Tidak untuk perang" dan slogan-slogan lain.
Menurut
Naouai, mereka yang berarak pada hari Ahad menafikan tanggungjawab Kiev dan Washington
untuk peristiwa-peristiwa di tenggara Ukraine dan "melihat Rusia sebagai
penyerang; sebagai pihak yg menjejaskan peluang utk keamanan "di
rantau ini.
The
demonstrators carried Ukrainian, Russian, and opposition flags, while chanting
“No to war!” and other slogans.
According
to Naouai, those marching on Sunday deny Kiev's and Washington’s responsibility
for the events in southeastern Ukraine and “see Russia as the aggressor; as the
party that is undermining a chance for peace” in the region.
Perarakan
itu bermula pada Puskinskaya Square di pusat Moscow dan membuat kesimpulan
selepas beberapa jam pd Prospekt KathyG. Tiada insiden serius dila-porkan.

Sementara
itu, Interfax melaporkan bahawa beberapa kumpulan kecil telah mem-buang telur,
tomato, dan kasut pd penunjuk perasaan pembangkang.
The
march was also attended by supporters of the self-proclaimed People’s Republics
of Donetsk and Lugansk.
Meanwhile,
Interfax reported that several small groups were throwing eggs, tomatoes, and
shoes at the opposition demonstrators.
"Ia
adalah kali pertama bahawa penunjuk perasaan pembangkang telah dicu-rahkan ke
jalan-jalan di Moscow dalam tempoh enam bulan," kata Naouai.
Protes
terakhir diadakan pada Mac selepas Republik Ukraine Crimea mengadakan
referendum yang mengesahkan hasrat untuk berpisah dengan Kiev dan menyatu-kan
kembali dengan Rusia itu.
Ukraine
telah melanda dalam konflik dalaman ganas sejak bulan April, apabila tentera
Kiev mula tindakan keras ke atas kawasan-kawasan tenggara negara ini selepas
mereka enggan mengiktiraf rampasan kuasa pihak berkuasa yang dike-nakan negara baru.
Bangsa-Bangsa
Bersatu berkata, angka kematian dalam konflik di Ukraine telah melebihi 3,000,
dgn jumlah ini termasuk 298 penumpang & anak kapal pesawat MH17 yang
dijatuhkan ke atas rantau Donetsk pada bulan Julai.
Bilangan
Ukraine pelarian telah mencapai 260,000, dengan lain perlindungan 814, 000
Penemuan di Rusia, kata PBB.
Sisi
bersetuju gencatan senjata semasa ceramah di Minsk, Belarus pada 5 Sep-tember,
tetapi masih terdapat sejumlah besar kerja yang perlu dilakukan untuk konflik
untuk diselesaikan secara aman.
Kiev
dan penyokong di Amerika Syarikat dan EU menyalahkan Rusia untuk men-dalangi
rusuhan dan menyediakan pemberontak anti-Kiev dengan senjata dan tentera.
Walau
bagaimanapun, tdk ada bukti yg meyakinkan tlh disediakan bagi menyo-kong
tuntutan, yang telah berulang kali dinafikan oleh Moscow.
“It’s
the first time that the opposition demonstrators have poured onto the streets
of Moscow in six months,” Naouai said.
The
last protest was held in March after the Ukrainian Republic of Crimea held a
referendum which confirmed its desire to part ways with Kiev and reunite with
Russia.
Ukraine
has been engulfed in violent internal conflict since April, when Kiev’s
military began its crackdown on the southeastern regions of the country after
they refused to recognize the country’s new coup-imposed authorities.
The
United Nations said that the death toll in the Ukrainian conflict has exceeded
3,000, with this number including the 298 passengers and crew on board the MH17
airliner downed over Donetsk region in July.
The
number of internally displaced Ukrainians has reached 260,000, with another
814,000 finding refuge in Russia, the UN said.
The
sides agreed a ceasefire during talks in Minsk, Belarus on September 5, but
there are still considerable amounts of work to be done for the conflict to be
settled peacefully.
Kiev
and its backers in the US and EU blame Russia for masterminding the unrest and
providing anti-Kiev rebels with weapons and troops.
However,
no convincing proof has been provided to back the claims, which have been
repeatedly denied by Moscow.
