Russia's demands for Thursday's meeting

Post by Reality Check »

.
.
Russia has demanded that the meeting between the U.S., the E.U., Ukraine and Russia be for the purpose of determining how power in the country of Ukraine will be divided, or segregated if you will, to protect the rights of the Russian speaking Ukrainians and ethnic Russians, that Russia has self appointed itself as the protector of.
.
.
Russia suggested the meeting include a draft constitution, drafted by all the regions of the Ukraine prior to the meeting, with representatives from each region being acceptable to Russia, and each region having a veto over provisions in the draft constitution.
.
Russia's suggestion as to the method of drafting a new Constitution was ignored, so over the past two weekends, the interim government of Ukraine was given a taste of what it will get between now, and the tentative date of the Ukrainian Presidential elections, in May, if Russia is not satisfied with the agenda and preparations for, the Thursday meeting.
.
The west and the interim government are now scrambling to do the least possible to get Russia to show up at the meeting.
.
Russia is now strongly suggesting the alternative to a meeting on Thursday acceptable to Russia, will be civil war in Ukraine. Moscow has changed the facts on the ground once again.
