Ukraine crisis: Poroshenko offers rebels more autonomy
September 10th, 2014
BBC, News
As many people know,
there are issues in the Ukraine right now, but the recent cease fire has
changed a lot. Since the Pro-Russian
Rebels and the Ukrainian government first started clashing, more then 2000
people have died, but a truce came into effect on Friday September 5th, 2014.
Before the truce, the Rebels had taken over multiple towns across eastern
Ukraine including Novoazovsk and Bezimenne (has shown in map below). President
of Ukraine, Petro Poroshenko, has stated that since the truce was made the
situation has changed drastically to the better. Although Russia has denied
sending troops into Ukraine, the latest Ukrainian (and other countries)
intelligence stated that Russian troops have crossed back into Russia. Russia was called to help the United Nations
investigate war crimes in the Ukraine.
I think that the
cease fire is a good idea and a step in the right direction in order to solve
the present problems and let the families of the people that have died, have a
chance to morn their lost ones. During
this cease fire, Ukraine should help get the citizens that are there, out so
they don’t get injured or die. I also
think that Ukraine should try and keep this truce going for as long as they can
so they can avoid further destruction and death.
