Naming The Dead

From UNIAN:
"Every Rada meeting may start with announcing dead ATO soldiers' names"

Chairperson of the Parliamentary Committee on Healthcare, MP from the Bloc of Petro Poroshenko (BBP) Olha Bohomolets has said that a draft resolution to start each parliament meeting with a moment of silence in commemoration of soldiers who have died in the Anti-Terrorist Operation in eastern Ukraine was registered in the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine. "A draft resolution to start each parliamentary session with a moment of silence in commemoration of the victims was registered in the Verkhovna Rada. I propose we can start doing this as early as tomorrow," she said at a meeting of the parliament's coordination board, the BPP press service reported. Bohomolets earlier proposed that every parliament meeting should start a minute's silence amid reading out the names of Ukrainian soldiers who have died in Donbas prior to it.


^ This is a very good idea. I think every country's Congress/Parliament that has its soldiers in a warzone should announce the names of the new dead. People always blame the military for wars when its the politicians that make and fund wars - whether right or wrong. Of course I think the Ukrainian Government is in the right protecting itself from the Russian-backed fighters in the Donbass. ^
