Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseny Yatseniuk said on Wednesday Kiev would never provide any funding to rebel-controlled areas in the east because the government refused “to finance terrorists.”

He spoke as the peace deal between the two sides appeared to fray further.

Both Ukraine and separatist leaders accuse the other side of violating the Sept. 5 agreements, signed in the Belarusian capital, Minsk, that called a ceasefire and provided for Kiev to grant “special status” to the conflict-hit eastern regions.

While rebel authorities desire total autonomy, the regions have yet to sort out their finances, leaving pensioners without funds and social benefits unpaid.

Kiev will continue to supply gas and electricity to separatist regions, but “so long as the territories of Donetsk and Luhansk regions are controlled by imposters, the central budget will not send funding there,” Yatseniuk said in a government meeting.

Ukraine refers to the rebels as terrorists.

Yatseniuk said the government would ordinarily have paid around 34 billion hryvnia ($2.5 billion) into the local budgets of Donetsk and Luhansk regions in 2014, but these funds would be disbursed only once Ukraine regained control of the territories.

Bien... et donc, ils officialisent d’une certaine façon la partition. C’est bizarre comme façon de solutionner le problème... Créer un état croupion...

Y compris suspension des prestations sociales et des retraites semble-t-il.

“As soon as the terrorists clear out of there . . . we will pay every person the welfare payments they have the right to,” said prime minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk. “To pay today is to directly finance terrorism. The terrorists should get out of this territory and Russia should stop supporting them.”

C’est aussi par ce genre de décisions que l’ex-Yougoslavie a éclaté.

Désolé @BigGrizzly, j’ai un peu bafouillé.

A la recherche d’un nouvel éclatement, aussi atroce et douloureux. La pourriture ne les a donc pas encore ensevelis ?
