The reasons for the degeneration of Ukraine

Ukrainian events highlight how to contribute to the current degeneration of the current phase , there are both elements of a domestic nature , that of external nature . The first is attributable to a radicalization of comparison, the country seems increasingly split between Europe and Russia, and it does not appear that any person capable of making a synthesis able to bring the issue into the rails of a peaceful discussion . The growing weight of the extreme right in the demonstrations , which are characterized by a degeneration increasingly violent , is not balanced by the action of the democratic opposition , which has lost its initial influence on the entire protest movement . The strategy to bring the battle within the institutional fence , trying to amend the Constitution in force, has not paid for the former boxer Vitali Klitschko, who now appears on the margins of the issue. Of course also the precarious economic situation of the country has contributed to exasperate the minds and aid Russians have decisively influenced the game , bringing a lot of supporters in the ranks of anti-EU . Just the new aid from Moscow would have exasperated the minds of the most extreme factions in favor of Europe , because they have been interpreted as a strong interference . But also from the international arena coming strong reasons for the current situation. If Europe is heavily involved in this issue , appears to be also true that the EU has been overtaken by the insertion USA, which leads to the entrance of Ukraine into Europe , but does so with anti- Russian motives , helping to exacerbate the clash . American strategy in Russia is unreliable for some time and the opportunity to remove from its influence a country almost satellite, is a strong motivation for the involvement of Washington. Moreover, this Russian-American confrontation over the fate of Kiev lasted ever since 2004, when the settlement of the government 's pro-Western Yushchenko was interpreted by the Kremlin an invasion of his living space and a threat to the strategic interests of Russia. Moscow now has every incentive to present the Ukrainian degeneration as a direct consequence of the interference in the internal affairs of the country by western politicians and the underestimation of the same event , then verified, infiltration of extremist elements . It is understandable , then, as Brussels is the subject loser dunk in the competition between the Kremlin and the White House and guilty of political and lightness of having mishandled the whole issue . However, the EU does not want to go through the weak link of the story and , after some statements of the chief diplomat , Catherine Ashton, and the President of the Commission Barroso , decided to intervene with the sanctions against the country of Ukraine. The recommendations for the member states are to intensify diplomatic pressure as the first intervention , which do follow the freezing of assets and prohibition of entry into the EU for Ukrainian politicians held responsible for the crackdown on demonstrators. At this juncture are distinguished by their activism Germany and France, which at a summit two will discuss further action against the Ukrainian government . According to the intentions of the EU steps you can take to resolve the crisis are: the resignation of Yanukovych, the creation of a government that will ensure the peaceful transition of the country and lead to democratic elections and the holding of a referendum on EU membership , attesting officially the people's decision to put an end to all conflict . The one of the referendum seems the most logical solution to resolve the conflict , but not the most obvious to implement, because of the interference Russian fears that a favorable outcome entry into Europe can finally put an end on the influence of Moscow for Kiev .
