Poroshenko’s Plan: To drown Donbass in blood by someone else's hands

Opinions - 20.05.16 20:01

The administration of Poroshenko has developed a plan for a new large-scale punitive operation in Donbas with the open military support of the West. Kiev hopes to drown Donetsk and Lugansk in blood, while, they imagine, Russia will not be able to go for the official intervention.

It is obvious that the new Ukrainian "elite" are incapable of making any reasonable and structural reforms. The positions of the "hawks" are still strong. Even among the "moderates" there have not yet been seen any attempts to move from coercive pressure to a rational and calm dialogue.

Sources in the Kiev highest offices are talking about a new revanchist plan, in order to once again try to definitively resolve the issue of rebellious Donbass by force.

The plan “Help will come from abroad" is as follows. Poroshenko will appeal to Western countries to help Ukraine restore order in the so-called ATO zone, such as NATO forces or OSCE paramilitary groups.

Supporters of this scenario claim that the delivery of Western troops to Donbass at the call of the "legitimate" authorities in Kiev will not allow Russia to intervene in the framework of international law.

It looks like that this was Poroshenko’s goal when he announced the idea of arming the OSCE mission, which caused a negative reaction of the Donbass Republics. Such a move, without approval of Donetsk and Lugansk, will be considered as military intervention, warned the Republics.

Given that the situation in Donbas is not what it was in the early summer of 2014, when a full-scale police operation could have theoretically brought success to the Kiev junta, now no policemen, even from the OSCE, will help Poroshenko. Besides, the OSCE are not at all idiots to take chestnuts out of the fire for him.
