Kiev uses military confrontation in the Donbass As an excuse for their own failures ? successes in the battle against illegal activity of officials is only on paper, the reforms have stalled, writes Tagesanzeiger
The blockade of Transnistria, the appointment of Mikhail Saakashvili, the Governor of Odessa region - the decision of the Ukrainian authorities is fraught with problems in Both the foreign and domestic policy. Thawing frozen conflict in Transnistria can turn into a new war front that may not be in the interests of Ukraine. However, such provocations, apparently, were the tactics of the Kiev authorities, the magazine writes, remembering the law of decommunization." For the Kiev authorities not matter that the eradication of the Soviet preceding offends some residents of Ukraine, most importantly Eastern. The main thing for them, As they report, is to set an example of democracy and freedom ", - stated in the publication, reports RIA " Novosti ".
By such measures the activity of the new authorities of Ukraine and limited, says the journal: progress in the battle against illegal activity of officials is only on paper, the reforms stalled. Instead to deal With problems, Kiev considers a priority to talk about joining the EU and NATO, shifting the blame for the failures on the shoulders of Russia. One way or another in the "common front against Russia" cracks: 95% of Ukrainians complain about economic problems, 80% report that after the Maidan, the situation With the illegal activities of officials left the previous or deteriorated. Discontent with the new authorities is rapidly growing, most of the West country in the " heart of the revolution ". The population of Ukraine wants to put an end to the military conflict, But the powers that be have different goals, writes Tagesanzeiger. For example, the oligarchs were able to make wider your influence, forming volunteer battalions - at present, private armies. The Ukrainian government fighting also had to be very helpful, says the print edition. In the information flow of the message about bribery in the government is lost on the news about the new victims of the conflict." So the population and the Western partners of Ukraine is less conspicuous, as far as " new Ukraine ", which, As if it arose after the "revolution of dignity" left previous ", - writes the magazine. As said before on the last working day of the week the leader of the movement "Ukrainian choice" Viktor Medvedchuk, the Kiev authorities are covered by the situation in the Donbass, in order to whitewash its ineffective policies. Since mid-April last year, the Kyiv authorities are in the East of Ukraine "special operation" To suppress the protest movement in the Donbass. The military actively used heavy machinery and military aircraft and helicopters. Refers to a large number of dead and wounded among the civilian population and the destruction of houses and infrastructure. According to the summary data of the UN, the victims of the conflict began more than 6 thousand People.
