However Poroshenko doesn’t control Merc. Battalions who are controlled by Kolomoiskiy, who is itching to undermine Poroshenko..... Same problem last time there was a cease fire....Merc. Battalions will ‘not’ obey Poroshenko. He does not pay them, Kolomoiskiy does.....
Additionally....Winter’s coming &people in Donbass need to be able to rebuild, otherwise humanitarian disaster.....Ukraine army in disaray, what’s left of it...thus Nato stepping up efforts to sustain what they can with help from Pentagon “advisers”... doesn’t appear is working to calm the theater by any means.
MeEanwhile while as cease fire was being announced...so to did Nato announce they were advancing “Georgia” to Nato Membership...(Just another means of keeping this conflict “hot”).
Additionally Nato Organizing “Spearhead Rapid Reaction Force” which earmarks Nato as clearly a “Military Force”...which is not it’s roll.
Who runs it...who determines when it strikes...who’s Parliment ok’s it to launch any attack? Bad news no matter how they present it as we could very easily find them on our doorstep.
Another reason Poroshenko wants a cease- fire now...more evidence Ukraine responsible for airlines crash continues to point they’re direction. Poroshenko cannot afford this coming out. Yarosh has already declared Poroshenko a traitor and several ready to out him with others waiting to assume control of the Gov.
Ukraine has no economy nor money without vast amounts coming from Eu or US.....so it’s being funneled through Nato to the tune of 50 million Euros. US taxpayers aren’t going to agree to this once it’s known.
We are basically picking up the “Military tab” currently for all the European nations refusal to pay their way in Nato, as agreed. They’ve not protected their own borders so now crying to NAto...which is the US...to cover their butts.
Unless Poroshenko can control the militias the cease fire will not stand long at all. ‘Kolomoiskiy’ is determined and a nasty character in this theater in Ukraine...he has the money to fight and the will to keep this conflict going...his desire to force US/Eu/Nato to fight Russia .....
Currently Kolomoisky is on the International Most wanted list.....he’s responsible for much of the deaths and brutality so....he fights like ISIS.
