Captured Soldiers Not OSCE Observers as Claimed

[Jesus Malverde]

1. It's tricky...

Initially they were widely described as an official "OSCE mission".

Then they said they were there under the Vienna document of the OSCE.

The vienna document is an agreement that allows states to inspect each others armies for the purpose of minimizing tensions.

The captured military troops claimed they were there at the invite of the Ukrainian government. The issue at hand is whether the Kiev government has the legitimacy to invite troops from a foreign nation into the areas held by those representing the legitimate government of Ukraine. Thats the tricky part.

Likely they are all NATO intelligence officers AKA spies.

Thanks for the post.
