This forecast was made by politician Oleg Tsarev on Day TV.
“Poroshenko has placed his people everywhere. There are no US appointees there, except for the Minister of Health and the head of the anti-corruption bureau. Therefore, the US can easily remove it. As soon as the Americans accept the application for his replacement, he will write a letter of resignation,” Tsarev said.
According to him, in such a scenario, Arseniy Yatsenyuk, who now has a strong position in Washington, will return to power.
“Groysman, when he arrived in the USA, he could not meet with anyone. They told him: why did you come without Yatsenyuk, let him guide you. Yatsenyuk now has very good relations with Nuland and Biden. If Trump doesn’t win, Yatsenyuk will remain the main arbiter on Ukraine,” Tsarev said.
In his opinion, Yatsenyuk is the “face” of the anti-Poroshenko movement and legitimizes outright radicals, who are now controlled by Arsen Avakov and Igor Kolomoisky. In this scenario, Ukraine's policy will become more aggressive, both towards Russia and towards the internal opposition.
