Is Ukraine violating ceasefire regulations? | Conflict Zone

Read more: www.dw.com/conflictzone
Despite a ceasefire between Ukraine and pro-Russian separatists, fighting is a daily occurrence in eastern Ukraine. Now Tim Sebastian presses for answers from Ukraine's President Petro Poroshenko.

[@DreaMinder1]

Warning. Russian trolling whores shitting in the comments section.

[@IAmInsanes]

***** if you see ukranian mass media enough you'll consider it is true :D

[@MyLuka111]

+Ivan Ivanov I agree and he is in my pants, u wanna say Hi to him?! ))

[@overseachininadoll]

all can hear from this president is strong stronger and strongest "No, No, NO,!."

[@VanyaYani]

+yin ng Watch more of the Conflict Zone. This is the most common answer to Tim's questions. All his interview questions contains some sort of controversy.

[@Dron008]

+yin ng He is seldom or even never been asked such kind of questions. In Ukraine all press is pro-president and asks something like "Why is Putin so bad and killing ukrainian people?"

[@user-wg9hu3eb6r]

press in Ukraine, pro-Ukrainian

[@SergeySedlovsky]

+Mykhailo Penziur It's a fact that both countries use propaganda to fight. But It's very reasonable to think that Ukraine's side is right. We're talking about total and absolute Invasion.

[@user-wg9hu3eb6r]

Sergey Sedlovsky Sorry, I can`t remember any of the parties in conflict to annex the territory?

[@ondreyskols1934]

19:28 pathetic.... no other word can describe this ..

[@user-xe1od8wi2t]

+Ondrey Skols 12:47 awesome! "Yes. - No! - Yes. - No! - Yes. They reported it. - NO!"

[@z2u]

very informative interview- first time I've really got to hear Poroshenko- good questions - not whats your favorite icecream type. i thought he had very good response for tough problems facing Ukraine but also the rest of europe. Sebastian needs ask merkal some tough questions that are on many peoples mind.

[@Stigmatheist]

Tim gave me more answers, than pan Poroshenko

[@divan0]

Does Tim always run interviews in this manner? Seems like he doesn't interested to hear the answers and the only reason he asks the questions is to pronounce them with accusation.

[@Eshperansa]

+Ivan Daniluk Yup, thats his feature!

[@RedBaron-lg4rx]

+Ivan Daniluk Because Poroshenko is a lying Jewish Oligarch!

[@doublebaked267]

Jim is just allergic to cheap bull****

[@borromini-sv2zj]

+Ivan Daniluk The point is that Tim asks the questions that his viewers (most of them) expect him to ask. The political interviewer is the viewer's representative, not the interviewee's one, you know. If you prefer some kind of a party mouthpiece, honeyed words and a kissass for moderator, just switch over to any Ukrainian TV channel - they are all teeming with softsoap and bootlickers. But remember that flattery will get you nowhere.

[@divan0]

+borromini2010 I disagree with you on what Ukrainian TV channels show, but my question still valid - why ask questions and ignore answers? From my perspective, any journalist behaving like this, automatically looses credibility. It'd be a huge win if he could do interviews with the unbiased questions, but trying to listen and understand the subject. Actually this is a typical level of 'debating' of people on the streets - "you have to accept my opinion, because I'm right". You do expect this level to hear on the streets, but it's definitely not a journalism.

[@ilikecake48]

Great, informative interview. I wasn't even aware of quite a few of the things discussed until they were brought up in this video.

[@nickreno6608]

As one wise man from Israel described such as: Assad in Syria bombed armed opposition (his own people, which were calling to topple the government and were pretty aggressive) - was declared a fiend and Poroshenko did the same (maybe on a larger scale) - is declared the fighter for "democracy". I have nothing more to say.

[@AlexPalco]

Have Tim ever interviewed putin?

[@Gintas333]

What's wrong with this journalist, doesn't even let the man finish what he's saying, always interrupting...

[@paramonov1984]

+DirTyDogG187 Because Poroshenko keeps talking shit and avoiding the question. He has not answered most questions, especially regarding why he has not sold his TV channel.

[@al2772]

+paramonov1984 Porochenko answered all of his questions, especially about his TV channel. Maybe you don't like his answers.

[@al2772]

+Иван Афанасьев he gave all of the answers.

[@andreyz2436]

+Oleg Gontar He did not, he just said that his channel "has a reputation" whatever that means. He has not explained why despite being president he still insists on having his own TV channel, it does not happen in any civilized countries due to obvious conflict of interest and potential abuse.

[@roltim2205]

+Oleg Gontar Олежик , ты кому впариваеш?- не х*я он не ответил! Как уж извивался и на прямой вопрос "почему тебе нужен ТВ канал?" он так ничего и не выдавил, кроме того что на 5 канале работают хорошие журналисты и по отношению к ним нет никакой критики. Конечно - со стороны Порошенко к ним не может быть ни какой критики так как они (журналисти 5-ого канала)кормятся с его рук. А когда журналист сказал что ни у одного европейского президента нет ТВ каналов то Порошенко аж глаза выпучил от такой ,по его мнению, наглости интервюера. Или может у тебя с английским плохо? Тогда пересмотри еще раз.

[@sashanesterov]

I like the way he defends him self: " The other side violated more. Yes, my army kill, rape and steal, but less than the other side." - explain it to the judge.

[@TheDimking]

He says he's at war with Russia, but for some strange reason Ukrainian army shells its south-east regions, and not Russia.

[@andreyz2436]

All Ukrainian channels were told to not broadcast this interview. Only 112 showed it because its owned by people independent from Poroshenko's regime.

[@shoora813]

+Andrey Z Independent from Poroshenko regime does not mean "independent". Ukraine economy is dead for good as aftermath of last coup, therefore oligarch war for control over few remaining profitable assets is extremely violent and bloody. Peter "Willy Wonka" is alive and kicking only until runs out favor of ambassador Jeffrey Pyatt and Victoria Nuland. That's why he do whatever they ask for, that's why regime loyalists are violating ceasefire.

[@andreyz2436]

MHz I did not say 112 is an independent and trustworthy channel, its just not under Poroshenko's influence because its probably controlled by a rival oligarch clan. Ukraine is now completely unstable, they had a coup only to get an even more incompetent and weak regime than before.

[@sergeontheloose]

+Andrey Z bullshit

[@andreyz2436]

***** Show me one Ukrainian channel broadcast this interview other than 112.

[@ratildahoyden9864]

1+1 showed parts of this interview, and most Ukrainian channels cannot be "TOLD" not to show something by a president. This control method is used in Russia though.

[@alexkat66]

Why he is interrupting all the time? He is quite arrogant and not polite at all. Shame on this Tim whoever he is. What he is thinking as of himself?

[@stayoutofourairspace4163]

+Bulgarian Beyonder you made no sense.Go learn English

[@avramenkoable]

The interviewer has absolutely no respect for Poroshenko and talks to him like to a school boy. I wonder if he interviews all of his guests like that:)

[@arthur_aleksanian]

agree

[@polpulle]

Yes of course, he interviews all of his guests in this way. That's his style. I love it :-)

[@VadimMikhnevych]

Tim doesn't show himself well. Straw man argumentation is a sign of low professionalism.

[@BaTeVg]

2:25 - good view of Poroshenko's pretty face...

[@armish777]

Poroshenko just stood after the interview and walked away. Probably was pissed off as hell

[@NataPoltavka]

[@olenakirkicha4310]

Tim's manner is too aggressive, I suppose, it is his style. However, President Poroshenko gave grounded answers, looked persuasive, especially in the matters related to the war. I can't imagine another candidate of presidential elections 2014 be more suitable and successful in the hardest time Ukraine is experiencing now. By the way, Mr Tim, being a reputable journalist, should know it is Ukraine, but not the Ukraine.

[@borisbritva7453]

The funniest part in that twit Poroshenko owns a billion-dollar confectionary business in Russia and its revenues skyrockets due to a Russian food embargo because no import food is allowed in Russia anymore. It seems like Putin is rather pro-business allowing it to operate and make this guy rich.BTW, during election Poroshenko promised to sell this business and now backing on it, telling 'Russia makes obstacles'. It sounds really funny, because for some reason they are still allowing him to make profit of it and there was Nestle's bid to buy it which Poroshenko declined.

[@TheMadoneTruthSeeker]

Ukrainian Pro-Russian rebels - I'm British ok, so don't really understand what's going on. So please don't abuse me, I have a question. Is it true that the conflict between the rebels and the government centres around the attempt to force the Ukrainian language upon the whole of country, whilst not taking into account that some areas are predominantly Russian speaking people.

[@stayoutofourairspace4163]

+The Madone no, It a Russian lie by trolls!!.Soviet union 1922-1990 had implemented Russian as universal language.while republics like Ukraine kept Ukrainian.Everything became rusified. attempts to bring Ukrainian back was a focus at independence.But a lot of people got used to speaking Russian.The thing is in government only Ukrainian would be used,outside government you can speak anything.They might of (Russians felt mad because now on wiki would show Ukrainian as official language or new encyclopedias. but each region were allowed to speak anything.Some say ignorant people in East or crimea didn't want to speak national language(Ukrainian) because Russian was or held at higher standard, more like big ego!!mean while ethnic Ukrainians speak to the ethic Russians in Russian too just to be. nice or just don't care

[@stas33309]

+stayout ofourairspace "attempts to bring Ukrainian back was a focus at independence."-From where you are and you dont know that the REAL REASON FOR WAR were been the COMPLETE ECONOMICAL INDEPENDENCE of Donbass from Kiev??Because people dont want to pay THE JEWISH OLIGARCHS who became leaders after the Jew oligarch Yanukovich left Ukraine..Poroshenko-Waltzman were been VICE PRESIDENT-Billionair when billionair Yanukovich were been the President..Also Poroshenko from that WAR..maked twice MORE money by buying ALL NOW CHEAP industries,territories and etc..Because during the WAR everything is CHEAP as f*ck..Seems you are not Ukrainian..

As soon as the Ukraine adjusts itself to reality dumping wild dreams about protoukrs and European prosperity the very next decade, the situation is likely to change for the better.

В отличие от к примеру канала Украина, который принадлежит ахметову... там каждый новостной выпуск заканчивается тем что 5-7 минут рассказывают как ахметов возит гуманитарку на Донбасс, показывают пенсионеров которые плачут и рассказывают что ДА ЕСЛИ БЫ НЕ АХМЕТОВ, ХВАЛА ЕМУ И СЛАВА, МЫ БЫ ТУТ ВСЕ ПОДОХЛИ... и так каждый час :))) А то что именно ахметов ОБИРАЛ этих самых Дончан и стариков, именно ахметов рассказывал что ДОНБАСС КОРМИТ ВСЮ УКРАИНУ (я не спорю, Донбасс имеет ресурсы !!! НО кормил исключительно Ахметова и прочую сволоту из партии регионов которая там прочно закрепилась и удерживала все предприятия под собой все годы независимости), то что ахметов по сути спонсировал СЕПАРАТИЗМ и как итог ВОЙНУ !!!

[@Dron008]

+Анатолий Unfortunately here in Ukraine many people are manipulated by mass-media as we don't have altervative points of view. All pro-russian and russian channels are banned, many people have been put in prisons. It is impossible to critisize the goverment publicly as you will be called "separatist" and there is a law against it. That's why people like Анатолий post hundreds of anti-russian comments thinking that they help their country. The fact is they ruin it with such actions.

Yes, they work totally liying and hiding information from people. Moreover even many series of Russia's channels are also banned. Do you know any european country practicing the same? The reasons are that such series create too good image of Russia and russian police/army to show that to ukrainian people. That's total madness and Poroshenko is supporting that madness.

2:28 this is actually, what the politicians and mainstream media are telling. But, the territorial stability and the integrity of a country is usually associated with its historical peculiarities - for that reason, a borderline is often a temporary reflection of the current political reality. Nonetheless and in fact, the fusion of Crimea and Ukraine in 1954 happened without a plebiscite (!) or a declaration of accession and was an autocratic and illegal act by the means of international law. The will of the people of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea was expressed by a referendum in 2014 and most importantly - peacefully implemented.
