He said there was “an information taboo” on events in eastern Ukraine. “Unfortunately, an information taboo has been put on what happened and what is happening in the east of Ukraine.
Kiev responded to the initial peaceful protest of people who were demanding respect for their rights by firing weapons of mass destruction at villages and densely-populated districts of Donetsk and Luhansk. Hundreds of people were killed,” the diplomat said.
“If some think it normal, let them stop saying tumid words about respect for human rights. What Kiev is doing now is immoral and inhuman,” Lukashevich said.

- Statement on Ukraine by Alexander K. Lukashevich, Spokesman of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs:
Just
like the rest of the world, Russia continues to mourn the loss of
innocent lives in the MH17 crash. Those people fell victim to the war
currently raging in Ukraine. Yet Kiev refuses to listen to reason and
rejects any proposals of a ceasefire as repeatedly offered by the
militia. It continues to bombard residential areas with heavy weapons,
even in the immediate vicinity of the crash site.
Instead of cooperating with a thorough and unbiased international investigation into the causes of the accident, the results of which would then be made public with maximum transparency, the Kiev authorities daily and hourly come up with new, absurd and absolutely groundless accusations against Russia. Without notifying international organizations, Ukrainian security agencies are now reportedly working in secret with the data storage systems of Ukrainian air traffic control services, both military and civilian, as well as with their personnel. This is clearly getting in the way of an objective and unbiased investigation.
In fact, this is not the first time something like this has happened.
Why is there no investigation of the sniper fire on Maidan? Who were those people who targeted both the protesters and the police from a building controlled by the so-called Maidan commandant? Their faces have been captured on video – although I recall that many of the respectable EU and US news stations and agencies failed to report this objective information.
Why is there no investigation into the horrendous events in Odessa, where dozens were intentionally burned alive by attackers acting in cold blood in the presence of government officials while those who survived by jumping out the window were finished off with sticks? Incidentally, many people in Europe and the United States did not get a chance to see these scenes either.
Regrettably, much of what has been happening in eastern Ukraine is also taboo for the Western media. Initially, people came out in a peaceful protest demanding that their rights are safeguarded. But, in response, the Kiev authorities decided to use weapons of mass destruction against villages, towns and densely-populated cities. Rockets hit residential areas in Donetsk and Lugansk, with the death toll running into hundreds. If somebody thinks this is acceptable, they should stop their high-sounding human rights rhetoric. The current actions of the Kiev authorities are immoral and inhumane. The Russian Foreign Ministry once again calls on all for an immediate ceasefire, so critical to save the lives of children, women and the elderly and to create conditions for a thorough investigation into the tragedy that happened in the skies over Ukraine. http://mid.ru/bdomp/brp_4.nsf/e78a48070f128a7b43256999005bcbb3/c0b321b4ff0413db44257d1e004b99cd!OpenDocument
