Ruslan Bortnik, director of the Ukrainian Institute of Policy Analysis and Management, does not rule out such a development of events.
“The protesters need new victories, otherwise this element will subside. It’s very difficult for Saakashvili to keep people on the street, he faces a choice - to “merge” or propose a new plan of action, to become radicalized, including through the seizure of buildings,” Bortnik said in a comment to the online publication "A country".
“Apparently, Saakashvili understands this, otherwise he would not have named Oktyabrsky as a target,” the publication notes. “It just didn’t work out this time.” However, as early as Tuesday, MihoMaidan participants want to assemble “mini-barricades” at the entrance to the Verkhovna Rada committees in order to put pressure on deputies and pass an impeachment law. Once the protesters have already created “corridors of shame” for deputies.”
