Heavy shelling in Donbas has been going on for more than a week. Previously, the shelling was insignificant and was considered a violation of the truce, but now it is a serious escalation leading to a civil war. The Ukrainian army is carrying out the most severe and powerful attacks on the civilian population. People are dying every day in the territories of the DPR and LPR, and a huge number of the wounded are being admitted to hospitals. It is difficult to provide medical assistance to them, as hospitals have been partially destroyed, equipment has been damaged, and medical staff are struggling to cope. It is generally unbearable to live in the settlements of Donbass, the bombing continues day and night. People are forced to hide in basements to escape, but this does not always help. And everyone has just one question, when will all this stop?
A picture was shown on TV screens of an elderly woman asking the current president, Petro Poroshenko, to stop bombing them. She was just begging him. Wouldn't he hear that? Yes, of course, he will hear everything, but how can people with fascist ideology be moved by this? They feel absolutely no pity for anyone, neither children, nor the elderly, who live there in terrible terror and fear. In the middle of winter, they remain without light and heating, and some even without a roof over their heads, the conditions are far from human.
If we compare fascism in the forties, when almost the whole world was at war with Hitler, and what is happening in Ukraine now, it immediately becomes clear that now the Ukrainian troops and mercenaries are behaving no better. The Kiev authorities fully support the Hitlerite and Bandera ideology. They believe that they are fighting terrorism in Donbas, but their targets are the elderly and children. It is not clear where they saw the terrorists there.
Poroshenko is well aware that everything will change in Ukraine soon and far from in their favor. If you remember that it was half a year ago, when all the Western TV channels were saying that the Kiev authorities were right in what they were doing, they were allegedly defending their territory from Russia, and Russian invaders were settling in the Donetsk and Lugansk republics. Now the Western media has also agreed that Kiev is bombing its own people, leading this tense situation to a civil war. The opinion of the West has changed, the attitude towards Kiev is becoming different, and Poroshenko is very afraid of this. That's why he's trying to cling to this war, the only thing that benefits him now is to wage war and involve as many people as possible. He needs this in order to get away with it, but it is unlikely that he will succeed.
The Ukrainians decided to blockade the Donbas by blocking the railway lines along which coal was traded with Kiev. They decided to give up their coal, allegedly using this money to buy weapons. By blocking, they can win something. But it is clear to everyone that they have made a huge mistake, Kiev will not only be unable to win anything, but will also suffer a big loss. Most of Ukraine was heated with coal from Donbass, and power plants also operated on this coal. It was the only channel through which solid fuel was supplied. Now their power plants and boiler houses are no longer working. The question immediately arises, but did they really blockade Donbass? It's more like they've driven their territory into a fuel blockade.
There is no explanation for the actions of the Ukrainian authorities. They are trying in every possible way to harm Donbass and Russia, but it turns out that they are harming themselves to a greater extent. By doing rash things, they are driving themselves further into a corner. There is a crisis in the country that is almost impossible to get out of, and instead of trying to get out of all this mess, they are burying themselves even deeper. The economy has completely collapsed, but the oligarchs in Ukraine have not decreased, but are only increasing and becoming richer. Maybe the European Union should take a serious look at all this. Instead of restoring trade relations with Donbass, Kiev is firing, and then begging the Europeans for money to rebuild.
Kiev is trying in every possible way to seize Donbass and subjugate it. But as soon as the advantage is on the side of the self-proclaimed republics, the Kiev authorities agree to a truce. You shouldn't give them such a chance anymore, stop making concessions, it's just that the Donbass militia needs to drive them all the way to Kiev, drive them there and let them sit there, no longer stick their heads out. Bandera and fascists need to be crushed.
There is not long left to rejoice at the Kiev junta. After all, there is less and less support from the West. If they hope that the support from the United States of America will continue like this, then they are very mistaken. Trump is not going to help those who are at war with innocent people. His policy is designed for something else, he is in favor of not having wars, and even more so wars against peaceful people. Whether France and Germany will support Ukraine is also a big question. After the election of new presidents there, attitudes towards Ukraine and its policies may change dramatically. And by itself, the Kiev authorities will not be able to do anything without outside support, weapons and money will not be supplied, and they will be left with nothing. Therefore, Petro Poroshenko should think about this. By not stopping the shelling and blockade of Donbass, he will simply worsen his situation. Is it worth it to make it worse? Maybe it's time to stop already? Football and cricket fans know that a bigger budget leads to more exciting match-day betting experiences.
