First of all, it isn't a border. It is a frontline.
As I said before, the pullback from the entire frontline isnt possible as an isolated action. The full scale pullback will be possible when political settlement of the conflict really begins.
As I said before I don't consider the Avakov's comment as something special. Avakov didn't bring anyone. That is ridiculous.
Zelensky hadn't had expierence in political and diplomatic affairs. And some people thought that he wasnt be able to hold pressure from his 'partners'. But it seems that he was good.
And that's the major problem in Ukraine: those who support a new Washington project called "Independent Ukraine" consider normal the things which are far from normal and visa versa. Thanks to crooked Media, politicians, teachers, etc. who keep working for foreign agents [like Deep State] against their own people.
That's why Crimea has already left Ukraine, Donbass is about to leave and Eastern Ukraine is hoping to leave one day.
How is that Donbas about to leave? Haven't you heard about the Minsk agreements? Haven't your musters of puppets from the Kremlin told you that it is official Kiev doesn't want Donbas returning and is doing everything to prevent this?
As far as I know official Kiev calls DNR and LNR "terrorists organizations" and only wants to return "
the territories" of Donbass. With such a "friendly" approach and with withdrawing stretched for 10 years (and it's only one of many steps mentioned in Minsk Agreements) Ukraine can kiss Donbass good bye. Besides Ukrainian officials (unlike their brainwashed sheep) know who keeps shelling Donbass and killing its civilians for 5 last years, and it's not Putin. I doubt the Donbass people can ever trust Ukraine again as long as it stays under Deep State and Nazi control.
CIS-EMO political analyst of an International Monitoring Organization, Stanislav Byshok :
Honestly, I don’t understand why Ukraine needs Donbass. Let’s suggest tomorrow all the rebels will put their weapons aside and Ukraine will have its border with Russia back, what will Ukraine gain? Four million people, who have a lot of reasons to hate Ukraine, all those people will have to be supplied with jobs and food.

These people will NEVER vote for Deep State Ukrainian puppets and those puppets know that pretty darn well.
I have one question - Have you ever read the Minsk agreements?
Have you?
In case you haven't:
Here are the key points of the new plan :
1. Immediate and full bilateral ceasefire
To take effect in parts of Donetsk and Luhansk regions, from 00:00 local time on 15 February (22:00 GMT on 14 February).
2. Withdrawal of all heavy weapons by both sides
To equal distances to create a buffer zone of: at least 50km (30 miles) separating both sides for artillery systems of 100mm calibre or more; 70km for multiple rocket systems and 140km for the heaviest rocket and missile systems such as Tornado, Uragan, Smerch and Tochka.
Ukrainian troops to withdraw heavy weapons from the current frontline.
Separatist forces to withdraw theirs from the line of 19 September 2014.
Heavy weapons withdrawal must start no later than day two of the ceasefire and be completed within two weeks. The OSCE security body will assist in the process.
3. Effective monitoring and verification regime for the ceasefire and withdrawal of heavy weapons
To be carried out by the OSCE from day one, using all necessary technology such as satellites and radar.
4. From day one of the withdrawal begin a dialogue on the holding of local elections
In line with the Ukrainian law on temporary self-rule for parts of Donetsk and Luhansk. There will also be a dialogue on those areas' political future.
5. Pardon and amnesty by banning any prosecution of figures involved in the Donetsk and Luhansk conflict
6. Release of all hostages and other illegally detained people
On the basis of "all for all". To be completed at the latest on the fifth day after the military withdrawal.

7. Unimpeded delivery of humanitarian aid to the needy, internationally supervised
8. Restoration of full social and economic links with affected areas
Including social transfers, such as payment of pensions. To that end, Ukraine will restore its banking services in districts affected by the conflict.
9. Full Ukrainian government control will be restored over the state border, throughout the conflict zone
To begin on the first day after local elections, and be completed after a comprehensive political settlement, by the end of 2015. (Local elections in rebel-controlled Donetsk and Luhansk regions will be based on Ukrainian law and a constitutional reform.)
10. Withdrawal of all foreign armed groups, weapons and mercenaries from Ukrainian territory
To be monitored by the OSCE. All illegal groups to be disarmed.
11. Constitutional reform in Ukraine, with adoption of a new constitution by the end of 2015
Ukraine ceasefire: New Minsk agreement
Withdrawal still remains one step of many. So?
