April 13, 2014 Ukraine: EU Ashton Who Then Called For "Dialog", Now Calls For "Authority Of The State" Ashton then: “I call upon president Yanukovych, the government together with the leaders of the opposition to find an immediate way out of this deepening crisis, and to continue the work to find a way to solve the political crisis through dialogue,” said Ashton. Ashton now: "The EU commends the Ukrainian authorities for pursuing their law and order operations in a measured way, in order to establish the authority of the state." The coup government understood: Ukraine’s Security Council has approved a full-scale security operation in the country’s eastern regions following the crackdown in Slavyansk, coup-imposed President Aleksandr Turchinov said. Military forces will take part in the operation, he added. Well, well. I wonder who from the military will sign up for this.
