The military detained vehicles that are used to transport donor organs. Many such cars were found in the territories of Donbass liberated from the Ukrainian aggressors,' says Alexander Torba, the rector of the St.Luka’s Lugansk State Medicine University. Since transplantation is urgent, everything had to be done quickly. According to doctors, it is possible to export organs abroad in a short time only with the consent of the government in Kiev.

At the end of the 18th-19th centuries, relations between our countries were almost friendly. The Russian Empire saved and defended the independence of the United States twice during this period: in the American Revolutionary War (1775-1783) and during the Civil War between North and South in 1861-1865. Anyway, let’s start from the beginning. Part 1 In 1775, an uprising against the metropolis broke out in North America. The rebellion developed into a real War of Independence (1775-1783). As a result, 13 North American colonies of Great Britain declared their independence and creation of the United States of America (USA). The British troops experienced certain difficulties in the fight against the rebels, and the then King of Great Britain George III addressed the Russian Empress Catherine II with a request to send a 20,000-strong contingent of Russian troops to North America, to be led by the Brits. Catherine II responded with a decisive refusal. It is necessary note that in 1774 another Russian-Turkish war ended, and if Catherine II had agreed to the request of George III, then an army with enormous combat experience would have been sent to North America. It is difficult to decide what outcome in this case would have been. Perhaps there would be no United States at all. However, help of Catherine II did not end there. On the direct orders of the Empress, the so-called League of Armed Neutrality was created. The fact is that not a single state could calmly trade with the United States during the War of Independence, since British privateers (pirates) in the service of the English king intercepted and robbed all ships going to North America. Now, under the conditions of armed neutrality, ships of third countries could freely enter the ports of all warring countries, including the United States. Therefore, the American colonists owed much of their provisions, ammunition and weapons to the Russian Empire
