“I am understanding that Kiev has pretty much determined they won’t be fighting much against as the Eu believes Ukraine will be better off without these areas with a large Russian population”
I am more inclined to believe it is because the coup government can only depend on around 1,000 people to actually fight, and several hundred of them are still camped out in Kiev.
The Army has proven to unreliable in two different attempts to put down the seperatists, and Right-Sector is the only thing keeping the government in Kiev in Office.
...”Right-Sector is the only thing keeping the government in Kiev in Office”.....
Well I agree but then the EU/Nato/US are supporting them doing so.
Kiev has their hands plenty full just trying to control the thugs...as we saw the other day when they went beating on people during the march. These thugs come out of the woodwork in any march or protest because they love violence. It’s like trying to control gang members who are self appointed street gangs claiming to “protect” the citizens....when in fact they love fighting and with little reason to do so.
It’s a shame Kiev relies on these thugs....no different then Russia’s thugs.
