  • Khodorkovsky Announces ‘Open Media’ Project To Support Investigative Journalism Startups · Global Voices

    https://globalvoices.org/2016/09/29/khodorkovsky-announces-open-media-project-to-support-investigative-jou

    On Thursday, exiled Russian oil oligarch and opposition activist #Mikhail_Khodorkovsky announced the launch of “Open Media,” a project that will provide financial and technical support—including legal, accounting, and promotional services—to journalists and civil society activists working on investigative projects.

    As reported by RBC, Open Media will support five to seven projects, providing between 3 and 30 million rubles (around $50,000 to $500,000) of funding to each. In addition to accepting applications from journalists, the commission is interested in project proposals from people who don’t have direct experience in the field, including activists and public figures, according to Khodorkovsky’s press secretary, Kulle Pispanen. Projects involving research on economics, culture, and the relationship between business and the authorities are likely to be considered. Each project will have a chief editor and a small group of staffers. Khodorkovsky said Open Media will give people an opportunity to “try out their ideas; if they don’t work out, it’s no big deal, it will another time.”

  • Ukraine’s media : ’Oligarchs remain in control and the promise of Maidan has not been fulfilled’ - watch on - uatoday.tv
    http://uatoday.tv/society/ukraine-s-media-oligarchs-remain-in-control-and-the-promise-of-maidan-has-no

    Progress has been made in Ukraine, but institutions remain weak and true independence is still elusive.” Those were the words of Brian Bonner, the chief editor of English-language weekly The Kyiv Post and a man with more than a decade of experience working in the Ukrainian media. He joined us in the Viewpoint studio.

    Relatively we are much freer than Russian and most of the former Soviet republics.

    If you look at media ownership that we have, media analysts have looked at it: the same top five oligarchs own most of the media. [...] What the media monitors say is when they analyze the coverage, they can tell just by the content who owns it. This suggests that the owners are sill interfering in the editorial policy, and that’s detrimenta to the free speech.

  • Turkish journalist detained for tweets critical of president
    http://www.usnews.com/news/world/articles/2015/10/09/turkish-journalist-detained-for-tweets-critical-of-president

    Police in Turkey have detained the chief editor of an opposition English-language newspaper for posting tweets critical of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

    Bulent Kenes, editor-in-chief of Today’s Zaman, was taken away from the newspaper’s headquarters in Istanbul on Friday as supporters chanted: “Free media cannot be silenced!” The detention was televised live.

    A court issued a warrant for his arrest for tweets that a Turkish prosecutor says insult Erdogan. Kenes, who received a suspended sentence earlier this year for insulting the president, denies the accusation, insisting he is exercising his right to free speech.

  • Brian Bonner: Bandits of Ukraine, keep stealing with impunity
    http://www.kyivpost.com/opinion/op-ed/bandits-of-ukraine-keep-stealing-with-impunity-398150.html

    Bandits of Ukraine, keep stealing with impunity. Nobody in authority is going to stop you – especially if you’re rich, powerful or able to pay hefty bribes to the right person.

    That’s my conclusion after listening to panel discussions at the 12th annual Yalta European Strategy from Sept. 10-12, taking place for the second year in Kyiv since Crimea’s Yalta remains under Russian occupation.

    I have been in Ukraine for a long time. But I can still appreciate the sad irony of a conference run by a billionaire oligarch, Victor Pinchuk, with another billionaire oligarch, Rinat Akhmetov’s DTEK, as a special partner, organizing a round-table talk called: “Rule of Law, De-Oligarchization, Fighting Corruption: Any News?

    Let me answer the question: No. There is no news. There is no de-oligarchization campaign and there is no fight against corruption under way – at least not one from people in the institutions that should be waging it: judges, prosecutors and police.

    Brian Bonner has served as the chief editor of the Kyiv Post since 2008.[…] He also worked as a member of the core teams with the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe during six election observation missions in Ukraine, Belarus, Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan.

      Ukraine National Guard to receive BTR-4s - IHS Jane’s 360
      http://www.janes.com/article/36447/ukraine-national-guard-to-receive-btr-4s

      The Ukraine National Guard will soon receive 74 new armoured personnel carriers, national defence industrial group Ukroboronprom announced on 2 April 2014.

      The National Guard was formed by Ukraine in early March in response to the Crimean crisis and subsequent stand-off with Russia. It is reported to have a target strength of 60,000, comprised in large part of reservists, and is backed by a USD700 million rise in the country’s defence budget.

      According to the Ukroboronprom announcement, the National Guard will imminently receive 74 of a planned 100 vehicles built by the Kharkiv Morozov Machine Building Design Bureau (KMDB).

      ANALYSIS
      Ukraine is keen to emphasise its efforts to create and bolster the National Guard with new equipment - which would otherwise effectively be a paper force.

      However, the quantity, designations, and availability of the vehicles points to them being vehicles rejected and returned by export customers. To date, Ukraine is only known to have ordered 10 BTR-4 vehicles, although the type’s only known export customer, Iraq, ordered 420 in 2009.

      Iraq has, however, complained about the quality of the BTR-4s it has received, with issues reported to have been found with the first batch of vehicles’ 30 mm ZTM-1 autocannons. These issues are understood to have eventually been resolved, with Iraq reportedly happy with the second batch of vehicles.

      However, the third batch of vehicles, understood to include around 40 vehicles, was returned to Ukraine after cracks were reportedly found in the vehicle’s hulls. Given the similarity in the number of BTR-4s in the returned Iraq shipment and the Ukraine delivery, it appears likely that the vehicles destined for the Ukraine National Guard come from this returned batch. The readiness of the vehicles for delivery also appears to confirm this, with it taking around two years to build an APC such as the BTR-4 from order to delivery. With the vehicle type only in mass production for Iraq it is highly likely that the vehicles either come from a future part of the Iraqi order, or - more likely - the returned shipment.

      Additionally, the designations of BTR-4 variants Ukroboronprom refers to match the variants of those ordered by Iraq. In particular the usage of the BTR-4E designation, understood to be reserved for the export version of the BTR-4, would appear to confirm that these vehicles were originally destined for export.
