Human rights activists accused Ukraine of illegal arms supplies

28
Human rights organization Amnesty International said that Ukraine was involved in illegal shipments weapons to South Sudan, newspaper reports Look.



We are talking about machine guns, mortars and grenade launchers.

The organization claims that “a contract with the United Arab Emirates for the supply of thousands of these weapons and a million of ammunition destined for South Sudan was signed by the Ukrainian state special exporter of military products Ukrinmash”.

According to human rights activists, this is “contrary to the Arms Trade Treaty, which Ukraine signed (but did not ratify)”. They also note that “until the UN Security Council has imposed a full and comprehensive arms trade embargo with South Sudan, the Ukrainian authorities should adhere to a policy to ensure regional and international security and stability.”

In this regard, Amnesty International urged Kiev to completely stop the supply of arms to South Sudan, and also ratify the International Arms Trade Treaty as soon as possible.

The newspaper reminds that in August, the media, citing sources in the US special services, reported that the DPRK in the development of the engine could have purchased engines on the black market for Yuzhmash. Kiev denied these statements.

        So before, they were joking with might and main bully Ukraine was one of the top ten arms exporters. laughing The inheritance is not frail from the USSR sad
        In the 1991 year, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, Ukraine inherited the most powerful military unit in Europe. It included:
        - 4 military armies;
        - 1 tank army;
        - 1 army corps;
        - 3 air defense corps;
        - 43rd missile army;
        - heavy bomber strategic aviation, etc. The number of troops of this group was almost 1 million people.
        The armament of this formation consisted of:
        - tanks - about 9 thousand;
        - armored vehicles - 11 thousand;
        - artillery systems - 18 thousand;
        - airplanes and helicopters - about 3900;
        - intercontinental ballistic missiles with their strategic warheads - 176 missiles;
        - separately operational-tactical and tactical nuclear warheads - 2883 units.
        In addition, in strategic military bases and warehouses, as an untouchable reserve, designed to mobilize 10 (ten!) Million people (i.e. at least 5 (five!) Fronts) in the event of an enemy attack, weapons and military equipment were stored, food, ammunition and other military equipment - according to foreign experts - at 89 (eighty nine!) billion US dollars.

    According to human rights defenders, this “contradicts the Arms Trade Treaty, which Ukraine signed (but not ratified).” They also note that “until the UN Security Council has imposed a full and comprehensive arms embargo on South Sudan

    Duck is obtained, if there is no sanction, then it is legal. And claims of the level "with these weapons can be killed."

        Such human rights activists are usually, if not completely ideological, then close to this. And they speak mainly against countries where everything is in order with human rights. I would even say that they oppose those countries where they can lead without risking their lives, and they ignore countries where human rights are absent "as a class".

      Amnesty International spokeswoman Maria Gurieva revealed the details of a study on Ukraine’s involvement in illegal arms transfers to South Sudan.

      In fact, the study concerns the participation of one of the British companies in the supply of weapons to South Sudan.
      European manufacturers supply weapons to Africa and the Middle East through enterprises of the Ukrainian defense industry.
