Так конешно если б Путин не вмешался так и не было бы никакого конфликта на Донбассе и соответственно никакои бы воины сеичас не было бы. Надо сказать Прибалтике повезло , все живы здоровы, а Украина да попала
Meanwhile, in Syeverodonetsk, in the Donbas, a meeting of Moscow-supported politicians recognized Yanukovych as president and considered a referendum on whether the Ukrainian oblasti (provinces) of Donetsk and Luhansk should become autonomous and ultimately secede from Ukraine and join Russia. In December 2004 the presidential election results were annulled by the Supreme Court, and a second runoff was held, in which Yushchenko was declared the winner. Instability would plague Yushchenko’s administration, however, and he was soon forced into a power-sharing agreement with Yanukovych as his prime minister.
