Ukraine’s parliament supported on Sept. 16 two draft laws filed by President Petro Poroshenko aimed at temporary settling the conflict in the country’s embattled east by granting special status to the territories occupied by separatists for three years and giving amnesty to some of the Kremlin-backed rebel fighters.
Poroshenko personally came to parliament and addressed lawmakers to persuade them to vote for the laws in order to secure peace in the eastern Donetsk and Luhansk regions.
“There is no more important task for us than peace now,” Poroshenko said in his address to lawmakers as was posted on his website on Sept. 15. “These are the key points that will insure it.”
Both laws were passed by a majority of lawmakers during a closed session of parliament and were immediately slammed by critics as massive concessions to Russia.
C’est quand même assez hallucinant la vitesse à laquelle les choses peuvent bouger !
Mais aussi, il n’est jamais trop tard pour bien faire...
Evidemment, les va-t-en guerre ne seront pas contents.
