The main problem is that most of the media provide very subjective information about the following events in Ukraine, it’s hard to understand what is really going on. What is more, many people start using straight black-and-white logic in judging this situation.
This is especially true for Petro Poroshenko, the new president of Ukraine. We see him as a new democratic leader elected after some sort of revolution (or not selected, and specifically placed by "someone"?). What if someone`s pulling his strings?...
The experts believe that all negotiations of the new government with the representatives of Novorossiya are purely formal. They are conducted just to show the respect for the Western peace supporters.
President Poroshenko obviously wants to end “the battle phase” as soon as possible, in August. This plays a crucial role for him. He wants to “jumpstart” the campaign for the early elections to the parliament of Ukraine in the end of September.
It’s clear that the election campaign won’t be seen as legitimate if it does not involve Donbass region, so the Kiev authorities plan to clean up Donetsk and Lugansk regions by the end of September, both militarily and politically. It means that the new law "On countering and overcoming separatism" would be used as an effective tool against political opponents, and the Ukrainian leader plans to "filter out" candidates for the "Verkhovnaja Rada" and local councils. So the government will leave only candidates supporting "national-oriented pro-European course". Simultaneously, the program of “destroying separatists” will be implemented in Donbass, implying destruction and “squeezing” every disloyal person out of the region.
No doubt that Donbass region is vital for Poroshenko to stay in power. This means that, in spite of thousands of Ukrainian civilians and soldiers killed, he will carry on The Civil War, treading more victims under foot.
