So SUG behind barricades do not have to skirmish if behing barricades.

So ART does not have to flee if charged

But only infantry can defend barricades so my conclusion is that ART while behind barricades do not benefit from the +2/+4 at impact correct ?
Also undefended barricades do they negate LS,CL and similar and so would count vs ART behind barricades ?

no, you are not correct. You have misread the barricade rules.

So please what is the right reading

Pg 127 and 128 of the rules

Point 11 Barricades can only be defended by foot UGs

I had to check out of the rules to find that ART is FOOT that is very annoying as it is in the introduction that's not in the rules.

But there is still another matter

Moving ART is red but point 4 says tha a UG may leave a barricade playing a yellow for a move straight ahead ...so red or yellow for ART ?

All infantry are foot but not all foot are infantry.

Well as artillery can't move on less than a red I'd suggest it's a red for artillery.

A quite famous game had a rule that said "Roads add +2 movement to units".  The question was then asked, does this apply to aircraft?  Yes, maybe the rule should have said "Roads add +2 movement to units except aircraft".

The same applies in this situation.

Let us say : what does that mean for MEG . ? Red or yellow follow the rule or the special case 

Special trumps general.

Artillery may not skirmish or run away anyway - see the rules for artillery on page 119, 13 D 4 .
