“This crisis will be caused by pressure from oligarchic groups on the central government in order to achieve, if not de facto federalization of Ukraine, then what I would call increased independence of the regions. In order to form a new consensus between oligarchic groups and the central government,” Solovey said.
He believes that Russia will not have anything to do with this crisis, but will try to use it to its advantage.
“A serious political crisis could arise there, and Russia is making a certain bet on this. From her point of view, this will make the Ukrainian government more accommodating. But it seems to me that the vector of Ukraine’s drift away from Russia has already been determined historically, and it cannot be reversed - it can only be slowed down. Ukraine will leave us, that’s certain,” the PolitNavigator correspondent reports Solovy’s words.
A regional revolt is looming in Ukraine this fall.
