Classic Kyiv Post: April 2015 – War in Mariupol heats up, Poroshenko's Russian ties, slow investigations of Yanukovych

The great newspaper is no more (in print) after owner Adnan Kivan destroyed it on Nov. 8, 2021, because its independent journalism threatened his business interests.

This is former Kyiv Post chief editor Brian Bonner’s introduction to the Friday, April 17, 2015, edition. Issue #16, Year #20.

Good morning. The Kyiv Post is back at the frontlines, where the Russian war path is edging closer to the strategic Azov Sea port city of Mariupol.

We also cover the debate over President Petro Poroshenko's business ties, including substantial ones in Russia, and the potential conflicts and compromises.

A top investigator explains why it's taking so long to bring justice in the murders of EuroMaidan Revolution demonstrators.

We interviewed the outgoing Ukrainian Ambassador to the United States, Oleksandr Motsyk.

And we have a spot news report on the murders of two journalists and one ex-lawmaker, very scary developments.

We have all the other usual lifestyle and business features, including a Business Focus on human resources. Thanks to everyone from all of us in the Kyiv Post.
