” Kommersant “,” insurance oversight “

As the newspaper” Kommersant “on Monday at a meeting with Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev discussed the possibility of a ban on flights of Russians, not only in Egypt, where the crashed Airbus-A321, but also in other potentially dangerous country.

” The ban on Flights to Egypt entered, it will not last a month or two, but for years “- quoted by” Kommersant “a source in the government. The same prohibitions, according to the interlocutor of the newspaper will in the future be introduced in relation to other countries.

The deputy chairman of the security committee Ernst Valeev in the commentary edition said that if this decision is made, then they [the security forces] something guided. The deputy chairman of the security committee of the Liberal Democratic Party, Andrei Lugovoi, an initiative called the absolutely justified. “” Given the active actions of Russia in the Middle East, this was to be expected, “- he said” Kommersant “.

” “Islamic state” and even terrorism very seriously expanded their influence. We must be prepared for the fact that Russia can become a sighting by the state “, – he told the first deputy chairman of the Federation Council Committee on Defense and Security, Franz Klintsevich. It does not exclude the termination of air traffic with other countries, if the situation develops in the paradigm of serious danger to the citizens of the Russian Federation.

With reference to his senior but unnamed sources in government agencies, “Kommersant” writes that the plane crash in the sky over the Sinai was the result of betrayal inside the Egyptian security services. In particular, according to the interlocutors of the newspaper, is now verified information about that alongside the Airbus A321 to take off for unknown reasons were allowed some outsiders.

“Kommersant”: two goals a possible terrorist attack

The newspaper “Kommersant” is not exclude the possibility that, if the cause of the collapse of the Russian Flight A321 was really a terrorist attack, the diversion can be directed not only against Russia, but against the Egyptian authorities.

The paper explains that the Egyptian authorities announced the elimination of one of the the leaders of a local terrorist group “Ansar Beit al-Maqdis” associated with the fighting in Iraq and Syria, “an Islamic state”.

Director of the Institute of Religion and Politics Alexander Ignatenkone suggests that the “terrorist” version of the catastrophe in the skies over Sinai not least of all may be associated with plans to connect Egypt – as a key regional Sunni state – to the international efforts to fight against the IG.

The expert of the Moscow Carnegie Center Alexei Malashenko acknowledges that the disaster struck a huge blow to the Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi, depriving the Egyptian economy billions of dollars of tourism revenue. However, he doubted that the attack organized by militants “Ansar Beit al-Maqdis” or supporters of “Muslim brothers”.

“It would be logical to imagine that harm Russia decided Islamists are fighting in Syria. They really is, what to avenge Moscow “, – he said.

RBC trading on its territory

In November start test trades in new benchmark grade of oil Russian companies. RBC newspaper writes that it must improve its cost and unbind it from the quotations of Brent, as well as to fulfill a long-standing wish of Putin’s bid for rubles.

RBC recalls that the idea of ​​creating a Russian oil standard has existed for several years. Now oil grade Urals and Russian ESPO (oil, supplied by pipeline ESPO) is sold at a discount compared with North Sea Brent because of the lack of a uniform and transparent pricing mechanism and guarantee supplies. The introduction of the standard, according to officials, will make Russian varieties are more liquid and lower the discount.

However, to the Russian variety recognized as a price target buyers in the international market, the newspaper notes, it is necessary that it is traded on the stock exchange on transparent and comprehensible price, transportation and oil supplies were guaranteed to all bidders, and trading volume should be at least 10-15 million tons per year, or 3 million barrels of oil. per day.

“Vedomosti”: frozen sanctions

According to the newspaper “Vedomosti”, EU leaders intend during the December summit to achieve the extension of another six months of economic sanctions against Russia, which expire in January 2016 g of.

The question of sanctions is considered in the EU is not in the plane to extend or reduce, as far as to extend – for six months or once a year, said ” Vedomosti “a diplomat from one of the EU countries. Part of advocates to extend sanctions for six months and thus send a positive signal to Moscow. Others see no reason for the positive signals, as heavy weapons from Ukraine and not withdrawn, and control of the border and did not return to Kiev, the newspaper said.

Technically, the agreement says that the sanctions will be removed not at a time when, instead of a hot conflict there frozen, and when you have made all clauses of the agreement and they are not met, the newspaper notes. The last of them – the transfer by Ukrainian border control, on which Ukraine insists on the main thing, says expert at the Moscow Carnegie Center Alexander Baunov.

“Another thing is that Europeans see Ukraine in the eyes fails chance for chance and frozen conflict that its leadership is not less favorable, or even more than Russia (to write off the chances of sunken) and Kiev itself does much to the agreement were not fulfilled, “-” Vedomosti “citing Baunova. But to punish Ukraine is not, it is still a victim, said the expert. As a result, with the deserted and frozen conflict coexist same stilled and frozen sanctions summarized Baunov.



“Izvestia”: to lift the sanctions on friendship

The Government is asked to solve import and sale of the goods fell under the sanctions, if they were made “friendly Russian companies.” Such a proposal First Deputy Prime Minister Igor Shuvalov to send members of the Duma Defense Committee Igor Zotov and member of the Presidium of the Presidential Council for Civil Society Institutions and Human Rights Council (HRC) Jan Lantratova.

According to them, it is necessary to create a “register of private Foreign companies, oppose sanctions against Russia. ” Igor Zotov and Jan Lantratova write that with a request to find a solution to them made by representatives of the Polish-Eurasian Economic Council.

However, experts believe this venture futile.

“The idea of ​​the good, but we thus provoke a split in European society, – said Head of the Department of Comparative Political Science of the Russian Peoples’ Friendship University Yuri Mail. – I do not think that any specific company to agree to that. There are some exceptions, but it is still the exception. We underestimate the extent of integration Activities of the European Union, and the fact that there are signs of crisis, does not mean that it will collapse “.

” Vedomosti “: border online self

Lifetime blocking Russia’s largest torrent tracker Rutracker.org may lead to increased legal nihilism among internet users, according to the newspaper “Vedomosti”. The decision to lock the Moscow City Court on Monday accepted the claim of the publishing house “Eksmo” who found in the activity tracker malice and is not limited to the requirement to remove the works of specific authors.

The newspaper writes that the audience torrent tracker is 13.8 million people, and the number of hands exceeds 1.6 million. In response to the question of site administrators, whether or not to remove the annoying holders of distribution or refuse it, preferring illegal existence, 67% of users (yesterday, the total number of voters exceeded one million) in favor of the second option.

C legal point of view the situation is twofold, says Paul Sawicki from the law firm “Borenius”. On the one hand, we are talking about protecting the interests of specific holders, guard and that the law should stand. On the other – on the violation complained of only a few parties, or in the case of complaints tracker delete the problematic content.

In closing the area with 1.6 million hands, the state is greater than “border-defense,” the expert said. Furthermore, the decision infringes upon the interests of many authors, whose intellectual property is spread through the exchange of files via the tracker.

According to Savitsky, insisting on “the eternal blocking” of opportunity to negotiate, rights holders squeeze Russia’s largest tracker in the illegal field where possible to negotiate would not be.

After all, his father’s love has been and remains a key part of raising a child. It differs from the parent: father’s love is reasonable, rational and demanding, the child should deserve it, “- commented the newspaper the deputy chairman of the Federation Council Committee on Constitutional Legislation and State Construction Elena Mizulina.
