The sound is increasing in the west about the $3 billion that Ukraine has to pay Russia in December. They dont want Ukraine to pay the money.
Amusingly, this will also give a good excuse to the Tsipras govt. not to return the aid money which is much larger.

In Ukraine, the militia shot down a couple of planes and that was the end of use of airpower by the Poroshenko Junta.
