I thought it was just the Russians who demanded it (as they do). But
today on the maidan.org forum "Hadjibei" cited the following:
WASHINGTON, March 24, 2014 ? According to a report from the New York
Times, the government of Ukraine has ordered any of its citizens in
possession of ?illegal guns? to turn them in to the authorities. This
move is being heralded by the European Union, which has made this step
a provision of membership. Kiev believes that disarming Ukrainians
will go a long way to end the escalating destabilization and the ever
present threat of violence that has risen with the formation of
?self-defense groups.? Others see this as a superficial power grab,
and meddling politics on behalf of Europe.
So Europe requires this? And in return gives a lot of hesitant
"maybes"? Does anybody have any genuine information about this?
