Since April, the Russian occupiers planned to continue the educational process in Melitopol schools according to the Russian curriculum and in Russian.

In Melitopol, temporarily occupied by Russian troops, all school directors wrote letters of resignation. This was announced in a live broadcast on Facebook by the mayor Ivan Fedorov.

“Today, a difficult but completely correct decision was made: without exception, all school directors wrote letters of resignation as a sign of protest and unwillingness to cooperate with the occupiers,” Fedorov said.

During the brook, he turned to Galina Danilchenko, who was appointed by the occupiers as “acting mayor”, and urged her not to take the children as a “human shield” or hostages.

As you know, since April, the Russian occupiers planned to continue the educational process in Melitopol schools according to the Russian program and in Russian. In addition, employment authorities have promised to pay bonuses to teachers in rubles.

A few days ago, the occupiers kidnapped the head of the education department of the Melitopol City Council, Irina Shcherbak, who refused to cooperate with them.

The network wrote that he was hidden in a garage and in a colony. It was also reported that after today’s meeting with Danilchenko, the occupiers began to go to the houses of teachers and take people out in unknown directions. It will be noted that those who do not want to cooperate are taken at a distance of 30 km from the city and forced to return on foot.

Meanwhile, Melitopol teachers urged parents not to let their children attend school and kindergarten, even if the educational process continues.

It will be recalled that Danilchenko initially banned the issuance of humanitarian aid to residents.

“Active neutrality”. Turkey’s role in the war with Ukraine

“Active neutrality”. Turkey’s role in the war with Ukraine

Against the background of the war in Ukraine, Turkey wants to stay close to Moscow and Kiev. Can it act as a mediator, and what is President Erdogan’s purpose?

The next round of peace talks between the Russian and Ukrainian delegations took place on Tuesday in Turkey via Ankara. According to the Ukrainian side, during the talks, Kyiv offered Moscow a new system of security guarantees. Turkey is acting here as one of the possible main guarantors. Russian Deputy Defense Minister Alexander Fomin said after the talks that Russia would greatly reduce military activity near Kyiv and Chernigov.

Turkey supports Ukraine

It remains to be seen whether these agreements will be respected. However, this meeting is that diplomatic victory for Turkey – after all, there was hope for a truce of peace and a resolution of conflict. Earlier, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan stressed that his country is not an official mediator, but is willing to create conditions to support the peace negotiation process between Russia and Ukraine. And even before the war started, Erdogan offered to act as a mediator in the Russia-Ukrainian confrontation, but then Russian President Vladimir Putin did not support this idea.

For Turkish expert on Russia Aydin Sezer, this is not a surprise. in his opinion, even before the war started, Ankara – despite close economic ties with Moscow – was on Kyiv’s side. “The Turkish government has made an arms deal with Ukraine and has always supported the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Ukraine,” Sezer told DW. In recent years, President Erdogan has repeatedly stressed that Turkey supports Ukraine and does not recognize the annexed Crimea as Russian. In addition, Erdogan acts as a defender of the Crimean Tatars. Ankara sided with Kyiv and, according to Putin, it was not independent – therefore, Erdogan’s proposal was rejected.

Between two seats or “active neutrality”?

From the beginning of the war, Ankara followed a more cautious course than ever before. President Erdogan calls this position “Active neutrality.” In practice, it means interacting with both sides, staying in touch with them and making no mistakes.

Beate Apelt of the Istanbul branch of the German Friedrich Naumann Foundation believes Erdogan was acting in a coercive manner. Apelt, who has long led projects in Ukraine, believes that Ankara has established good relations with both Kiev and Moscow. In relations between NATO and Russia, Turkey has also taken a special position. If, because of the war, Ankara needs to clearly define its position, Erdogan will face a dilemma, Apelt believes, because, on the one hand, Turkey is a member of NATO, and on the other hand, it is more dependent on Russia. .

First of all, Turkey is dependent on Russian gas. According to official figures, Turkey receives a third of the gas it needs from Russia. The first Turkish nuclear power plant in the port city of Mersin was built by Rosatom. Russia plays the role of the main consumer of building materials for Turkey – and the market for agricultural products from Anatolia. In addition, 70 percent of Turkey’s grain imports last year came from Russia. And about 20% of tourists visiting Turkey are Russians.

Close economic connections with Ukraine

But recently Ukraine has played an important role for Turkey. Last year, Turkey was the largest foreign investor in Ukraine with $ 4.5 billion in investment. According to Burak Pehlivan, head of the Turkish-Ukrainian Association of Entrepreneurs, about 700 Turkish firms were active in Ukraine before the war began. Bilateral trade volume in 2021 will be $ 7.4 billion. On February 3, Erdogan and Zelensky signed an agreement to bring trade to $ 10 billion a year.

In addition, Ankara provides Kiev with weapons, in particular, the Turkish combat drones Bayraktar. Agreements were signed between Kiev and Ankara on the supply of engines and other components for warships and drones.

Aydin Sezer believes that Turkey will continue to follow the course of its “active neutrality”. This is what Europe is enjoying right now, Sezer said. Hussein Cicek from the University of Vienna considers such a course a good decision and emphasizes that Ankara’s support for Ukraine means suppressing Russia’s political ambitions throughout the region. In addition, it will normalize Ankara’s relations with the West.

For weeks, business companies in the blocked city have not been able to deliver humanitarian aid.

Russia’s occupation forces carried out a genocide of civilians in Mariupol, businessman Rinat Akhmetov said in a comment to Bloomberg.

“It’s genocide. And the worst thing is that we can’t bring our aid to Mariupol and remove the people there – the Russian army is firing and not allowing our humanitarian convoys,” the businessman said.

Akhmetov has two businesses in Mariupol, employing 40,000 people. After the outbreak of war, factories were shut down, but workers continued to be paid wages.

Earlier, Akhmetov said his factories would never, under any circumstances, operate under Russian occupation.

The company was sure that businesses would be restored after the war.

Recall that Akhmetov’s companies organized a humanitarian convoy for Mariupol, but they could not deliver it, because Russian troops shelled the green corridor.

Against the backdrop of stopping the Russian army’s offensive in Ukraine, spring conscription begins in the Russian Federation itself. Russia promised not to send conscripts to the war in Ukraine, but such facts were repeatedly confirmed, and the Russians themselves acknowledged them.

Call to war

covert mobilization

Ukraine’s military expert Nikolai Sungurovsky said Russia is now trying to pull new forces and reserves into the Donbass for a definite blow to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

“What can Russia attract to solve these problems? These are the opportunities that Putin will surely receive by conducting a draft campaign in the spring. I doubt that they will recruit 134.5 thousand people, such as they promised, first, and second, that they would not only recruit young and untrained people.According to their plan, the reservists of the first stage should be the basis of this call.That is, those who have been trained “It’s so, quite speaking, preparation. They don’t have much training there. They once served in the RF Armed Forces. We know how the most prepared forces were crushed in this so -called blitzkrieg,” Sungurovsky believed.

According to the expert, the Russians will try to put such conscripts on equipment that is now removed from long -term storage and send it to Ukraine. But it will not bring any special results to the Kremlin, Sungurovsky stressed.
