[quote]Ukrainian president ends unilateral ceasefire in the east, saying: "We will attack, we will free our land".
Mr Poroshenko said the chance for peace was lost because of the "criminal activities" of pro-Russian militants.
The shaky ceasefire between the Ukrainian authorities and separatist groups had been due to end on Monday evening.
Both sides have accused each other of violating the truce.
Interfax-Ukraine news agency quoted pro-Russian militia saying Ukrainian forces had resumed shelling the city of Kramatorsk.
"The decision not to continue the ceasefire is our answer to terrorists, militants and marauders," Mr Poroshenko said.
Earlier on Monday, the office of French President Francois Hollande said Ukraine and Russia had agreed to work together to establish a bilateral ceasefire in eastern Ukraine.
It followed talks between the leaders of Ukraine, Russia, Germany and France.[/quote]

You're going to shell the land you claim is yours, with your people living on it?
Well. That's just going to do a great job of appeasing the eastern Ukrainian's hearts and minds, isn't it
neither side was going through with the cease fire anyways
[del]business[/del] war as usual
Something of a sensationalist headline there - Poroshenko didn't 'end' the ceasefire, it just expired after the two sides failed to work out some sort of agreement.
Russia won't be happy regardless, though.

Didn't they extend it by 72hrs just a day ago? This is a unilateral decision by the Ukrainian government.. Russia was making concessions..
So weird thinking there is actual land grab wars going on in present day, borders have been so stiff for Europe/Asia/America

Shock and Awe has been around since the concept of razing towns for the sheer fuck of it.
Eh, I was getting tired of looking at the same old atlas anyways.
