The Security Service of Ukraine has published an intercepted phone talk between the leader of eastern Ukrainian terrorists and the Russian president's special representative Vladimir Lukin, who was sent to Eastern Ukraine to "rescue" the captured European OSCE observers. Despite Russia's claims that Ukraine is responsible for the capture of hostages, the intercepted phone call proves that Russian officials coordinate the actions of terrorists and have direct influence on their decisions. Active participation of Russian delegation in the release of foreign hostages is nothing more than staging.

Vladimir Lukin is Russia's human rights ombudsman. He participated in talks in Kyiv on February 21 when an agreement between the then-Ukrainian government and opposition was brokered. It was him who refused to sign that agreement.
