we come to dumb to decide for osc. we just wish that osc will consider our wishes. it has the powers to regulate the various places of disturbances, and would like this organization will address all of the aspects mentioned in our declaration, including the most important, in our opinion, the freeing of the same people, the mayor, and also to stop the expression of extremism in various forms. in all forms. >> interpreter: you mentioned about disarming of the various armed groups. does this include the self defense groups, which are formed? and will it include the russian troops, which are on the territory? all of the measures which we mentioned today, at today's meeting, includes all regions of ukraine, and the expression of all problematic questions. you know an agreement which was signed on 21st of february, the question was sealed. and not many things were down. the sector continuing to function, refuses to give up weapons, arrogantally stating that they're going to fulfill the duties of the ukrainian army. if they'

michelle, pro-russian separatists accused the osce observers of spying. what were they doing on the ground? >> they are accused of spying because they have not been at particular checkpoints. they are part of the military verification mission. they were doing their job, which is to provide transparency and clarity when military situations on the ground get as murky as they are with names and counterclaims. that includes moscow, kiev, berlin. they were doing their job. they were accompanied by ukrainian soldiers. this is because they were invited by ukraine and ukraine has a possibility -- a responsibility to provide security. they were either misunderstood or unwelcome on the ground, or thiser theory is that could be an opportunity to have some clout on the side of the separatist. the aim is that they provide methods to release tension, to get the attention of the conflict. but we are seeing today that there are different interpretations of what this means. suggested talks on troop movements to moscow and all interested parties. the conversation between u

meanwhile, the russian ambassador with the osce said that russia is going to undertake any measures to help to free the observers, but at the same time, he said that actually it's up to the ukrainian authorities to guarantee the observers' safety. >> ok, so there's grave concern about the situation, concerns, too, about the situation on the ukraine-russian bothered. what's the latest you can tell us there, alexandra? >> we have talked to the ukrainian foreign ministry told, and they told us that so far no major incidents have been reported from the border and that the russian troops have not crept to the bored sorry far, but of course that is what people here fear. >> so no major incident being reported. however, it's interesting, when we look at the mood as reflect in the language coming out in kiev, the stament that we've had about accusing russia of wanting to start world war iii, that almost suggests a tone of panic in kiev. >> well, yes indeed, these were very strong, very cryptic words, but we have to understand that the ukrainian government is in a very difficult situation. they

all political forces the osce mission and representatives all popular geneva. had the opportunity yesterday to is that cage of administration at the business. they might all activities vacate the premises. saul ukraine status of implementation over jr the statement of the coconuts and welcomed by the osce monitors. these old still remains a trouble spot recently i was being threatened and attacked boston terrorists refused to surrender arms. nothing can dust to dust avoid the recent capture all that was the inspectors. it clearly indicates that russian separatist have no intention to fulfill the geneva agreement. indy. but the mole real political agenda the couple political goals and become old. any intention to hold and a violet. they simply execute orders from russia but this. all european security to stop and when moscow. as the cynical that breaks the principles all began the book a month on confidence and security building measures according to accept that we only get double commence ukraine in white to the russian federation to consultations on the issue

and so we agreed that the osce a special monitoring mission which is already on the trial. whose vision has already been defined. granted that they undertake a special role in assisting ukrainian authorities and local communities. in the immediate implementation of the de escalation measures that they will do so where ever they are indeed at the most. in the coming days that means beginning immediately. the united states the eu russia committed to support this mission including by providing monitors directly i wanna emphasize that ukraine's leaders. it indicated that they are prepared to go to extraordinary lengths to address regional demands for more autonomy for local self government. for the protection of minority rights. i've talked to this afternoon with prime minister got to do it. and and. he indicated in rio for. is the government's strong commitment to a genuine comprehensive and inclusive process by which they will engage in the constitutional reform process in ukraine foreign minister to shoot in a brief dust on the extensive and inclusive constitutional reform p

they have no relation to any osce mission. as we found maps on them containing information about the location about checkpoints. we get the impression that the officers carrying on a spying mission giving me the thing is still moving the thirteen man but gemini a team of men that its athens was traveling under the auspices of the ict when they were detained in south downs on friday. a spokesman for the organization confirmed the gemini is leading negotiations for their release. line a bit economists by natural emissions from the book among the projects banana trees benefit patients and to be a one to dissent is leading the mission of sorts primarily a mass of the gemini oh one and as a hobby and a new boss will be conducted in younger dog whistles that the ukrainian government which is like to commission into the country d oh and also in contact. it will use its contents ukrainian reports say the observers of being held here at the barricaded police headquarters instead ask the separatists say that i'm in good health and that

it is the osce mission of what kind of group. is it and what to do. but if industry verification mission is courtenay says he affirmed done many many years acting as a participating sit in the elysee in the oc itself is very much up cold war the animal and then it was created to be exactly for situations like these when neither side has an overview of what is happening on the ground to get some carrots begin to doubt and not exactly is the cost of this verification mission which samples the report's most of the sexes that the stiletto is seen on this read that the ukrainians effort just say that there was a spine from kiev among this group and now osc is not really in a position to help them out who is in a position to get these hostages three well the question isn't odd and at any osce mission and it must be the more familiar with the election observation mission for instance they'll always invites it's quite the states that the ongoing t so in this case they were invited by ukraine and ukraine also provided security for this also explains why there

osce observers think that held since last friday. saying it's a crime i want to get your reaction to this dimitri so soft the osce observers. all low of one thing that they didn't want to do so. it is really a terrible crime the only thing that some of these episode twelve students the people around him. the nets could it be known on the screen just described a separate listing for all of civilization activists of the most nearly one hundred percent controlled by moscow. russia usually content of those big people stooges and urged the leaders of the movement to change the course in immediately released. um so the russians and the mules for this monday the russian ambassador to the usc. call it irresponsible of the osce to send monitors to that area well um yes because these are that there is a loner counterterrorism cooperation we will their conducted by the newquay a photo of photos which russia regards as the war. the gains this. it is this that its own people emc. the indians and the reason why mosque and state and that is that's

he tablets under the control of russian separatists, so the osce will have to ask permission becausehe roads are blocked. it will have to get the view of the ukrainian government. they want a balance report about what really happened to balance the investigation. they have to talk to the kiev government, but the kiev government has no access to the area, so it is not clear how they will do it. ce observers will probably come there, tomorrow, on monday, which is more than a day after the incident took late, so there's a big question if they will be able to collect the evidence and talk to the witnesses. and there is one more thing, which is strange to me, and i was in the studio yesterday, on saturday, and one of the separatists that battle that one of the checkpoints told me exactly the story which happened that night. he told me that they were hearing activists of the altar nationalists coming to them a night and shooting at them. so this is exactly what happened, and i believe there could be -- this could be a provocation. >> that was our correspondent -- romancharenko in goncharen

somebody who they should vote for before the election. >> there are three different instances that osc laid out. number one was the instance you're talking about. the second one was in a different office, a kentucky office where a woman -- irs employee actually had a customer come in and she complained to this customer about how bad republicans were and how she always votes democrat because the republicans want to keep the poor people down. the dallas office is a third instance. that's entirely separate pand in some ways may be even worse. the office of special counsel had a report that there were obama stickers and buttons plastered throughout the dallas office and people had obama on their screensavers there. it was so bad the osc had to issue a memo to the entire office warning them, you can't mix politics with your government time job. >> this one customer service person, here's what she said. she told the taxpayer she was for the democrats because republicans already trying to cap my pension and they're going to take women back 40 years. she continued to explain that her mom said,

under the vienna document which is all states are signatories to within the osce.neva plan was not meant to be a long-term plan. it was meant to be a short-term plan. it assigned a specific role to the monitoring mission. there are 120-some people on the ground including in eastern ukraine. it assigned a specific role to the osce monitoring mission in helping to facilitate the handing over of these illegally occupied buildings. disarming of the illegally armed groups. and the monitoring mission is on the ground in eastern ukraine. it is prepared to do that job. the ukrainian government has taken steps to make that job possible. introduced a new amnesty law. have an arms buyback program. made statements about constitutional reform committing to the people in the east. they've taken all the steps. the russian have not followed through on their commitments made just one week ago. >> very quickly, ambassador, this statement coming in from our pentagon sources suggesting that russian aircraft have actually penetrated ukrainian airspace. what do you make of that? >> you

and whether it supports another critical aspect of the agreement, which was the agreement that the osce will send in monitors to those towns where they're most needed to help to facilitate a peaceful resolution of these standoffs. so we will see over the coming days whether russia upholds its agreement. we've already seen the ukrainian government begin to take steps to do its part by beginning to take steps to implement an amnesty law for those that do lay down their arms, by the president and the prime minister making very constructive public comments today about constitutional reform and decentralization. if we do not see action commensurate with the commitments that russia has made yesterday in geneva, which we all welcome, then obviously we've been very clear that we and our european partners remain ready to impose additional costs on russia for failing to adhere to its obligations. >> did you give russia -- did secretary kerry and others in geneva give russia a firm deadline on when you needed to see that progress happening by? >> secretary kerry had very direct discussions with fo

he also called on russia to assign a senior diplomat to work with the osce mission in eastern ukraine to make absolutely clear with the separatists that russia sports the agreement and wants the escalation. >> moscow is stepping up the rhetoric saying washington should take more responsible for kyiv's action he because it's failing to stop the violence in the east of the country. this after confirmed a second shooting on saturday. one person was killed during the exchange of gun fire at a checkpoint in the town of davrapulia south of donetske. >>> efforts to end the crisis appear to be fal faltering. rebellion in the east by pro-russian activists. in luhansk, calls for the activists to come out from the barricades. violence in easter sunday, notably a shootout of pro-russian check point, pro-russian activists have called on moscow for help and russia is hinting it may have no choice but to intervene. >> translator: there are more and more calls for us to save them from this situation. we are put in a very difficult situation. those heading towards a civil war engaged in criminal polic

"theeport also states, delegation received many reports of vote rigging, including cases of non-ukrainian citizens participating in the referendum, as well as individuals voting numerous times in different locations. locations." furthermore, there are port

ambassador to the organization for security and cooperation in europe, the osce.hat have you heard about the certain observers in slaviansk? can you confirm that they have been detained? >> i have seen the reports about the terrorist tactic of kidnaps which is really disturbing, and certainly we becry that. there is an ocse monitoring mission on the ground. the reports are these are not members of that monitoring mission. separately there are military observers invited by ukraine under a document called the vienna document, that have been rotating through over the last couple of months. the reports seem to indicate that this is a team of those observers, and of course yes ear very concerned about their well-being, and we decry this kind of terrorist tactic of kidnapping people and holding them hostage. >> what was the role of the observers in eastern ukraine? and are you surprised that pro-russian militants might be involved in this? >> russia is a signatory of thef vienna document, and i wish i could say i'm surprised, but considering the egregious misdeedsover t
