“Is it possible to come up with a more crazy idea than to appoint a foreigner who is wanted, among others, to a key area? on corruption crimes in your country? A man known as a master at unfreezing frozen conflicts - to the border with Transnistria? An absolute stranger, after all – and this after Poroshenko’s public promises to appoint only locals?
Yes, it’s trivial, imagine what situation the Georgian consulate in Odessa will be in?
In other words, if I had been asked to figure out how the regime could prove with one decision that it had suffered from cerebral palsy, I couldn’t have come up with anything better.
Yes, it will be bad. A tough war awaits us between the city and the region - but we have already been through and survived this. Perhaps an aggravation awaits us on the border with Transnistria - but in reality, Ukraine does not have the strength to fight in this direction, so everything will be limited to another poking with a stick in the underbelly of the Russian bear, of which Saakashvili is a recognized master. Yes, investors will have one more reason to stay away from the Odessa region - but they already have enough of them, the only question is the speed of the process.
But after this appointment, the eyes of everyone who is not yet hopeless will be opened to the complete, perfect, uncompromising tenacity of the Kyiv camarilla. And this is good. At the same time, we’ll find out who we can deal with in the future, and who has a cancer brain,” Tkachev writes on his page on the social network.
