6:45 am
welcome to the interview in fostering care. ukraine's president viktor dedicated to faces an unenviable choice as he returns to work from what was described as an acute respiratory infection. you could make further efforts to satisfy the protest as will crack down on the two months of seasons and congrats. it's hard to see how his musical to ricketts avoid the clampdown iniquity the dolphins he's made to demonstrate as such is the conditional amnesty for detainee is simply the deal position them on the mall to take a closer look at this impasse. i'm joined by the same awkward and of europe and cis analysis and consulting company. ihs country risk and she joins me today from loans and welcomes to soon lee said. ag think is getting tb link fest in this crisis. that's really the crux of the silat moments we read a point where a candidate that wants to stay
6:46 am
in the opposition wants to go and these two positions have been very clear from the outset. what's crucial now is that there is effective action. both internationally and domestically. see today's service made a resolution to the situation. and then when we're seeing some of the main actor is russia and the eu and the us. starting to take strong positions in impress during an outcome that will come into the team's national dimension but i won't cost you more about the domestic actions that you mentioned will today be one of directions can be taken to ease the crisis given that as i sat in the introduction every new but to get some things that demonstrates is is what seems to be rebuffed well that that is the case and cindy du barry thompson situation. it looks like the opposition as the saints continued to call for
6:47 am
yanukovich his resignation it's likely that the opposition will push in parliaments for a new amnesty law be passed which provides a blanket amnesty without any conditions to the imprisoned opposition protesters. as we go some way guess that that would do that would suit me too much food of any yanukovich is the original proposal being is that how much johnson of tossing in common. while you make their points at it. it looks like a heck of it is still coming under significant pressure from from lawsuits take a hard line on this. and a blanket amnesty would be a significant step for him to take so it's really quite difficult to say this stage but we're about to happen it would be an important indicator of a taxi a positive resolution to the current situation. it was good. one interesting development in the weekend when we had reports that
6:48 am
ukrainian on the offices were being asked to sign a loyalty of its stupid government would move to reading of that ends of which way beyond forces might be leaning. it certainly is not a good sign in the sense that suggests that's the government wants the armed forces on site for potential state of emergency indeed we saw the demand defence minister announcing that the army held that it was necessary to take urgent action and keywords that cnn coverage to do so. however what we know about the ukrainian military is that it's a sense that constant military and what we hear from our sources is that yanukovich cannot depend entirely on a slope the hands what we've seen over the weekend. so it is said to be these loops suggests image it is that a state of emergency my next meeting will be something that he could implement even if he actually wanted to. that's right. what about the ends
6:49 am
national dividing lines you mentioned the idea. we will win am saying is you saying i'm still a division between russia and the west. did she think of them now. both likely to receive more aggressively. that is their involvement with with each respective site in ukraine it looks like that's the case at the eu is finally taking the initiative that if it didn't take in the beginning. the eu has been perceived within ukraine as by both sides is that really weak at times but now i have catherine ashton statements regarding this case is that the us on a potential financial assistance ukraine. and as this will be crucial to the eu. i've taken on a more serious role as negotiator in the situation. and when we do need some kind of attention of snow. it is mediation in order for the situation smith award as the two sides is
6:50 am
that it's ready are more or less than an ounce. the g g g c the eu is gaining leverage at the moment in the past they didn't seem to want to give money because of how it might end up being used or in his pockets would end up absolutely lola. this isn't an iv to gain leverage whether it actually happens or not is is another matter however is an essential components of any potential resolution as clearly bras that gained the upper hand when it provided the loan. i it's not withholding die alone. and also causing some issues with cargo transit pressuring him to come it's actually to return to the fold. as of the new house to give something as well if it wants to see any movement so the gc any appetite in europe for a european stone marshall plan as one of the main opposition figures are skinny yet seen you to
6:51 am
school full. it's hard to see your trading. i must announce ukraine given they use the existing problems already in it and it will probably look somewhat strange some of the members that are also in need of assistance. we think we can only count that is if the eu doesn't provide a massive eight and in russia freezes the rest of its planned the enemy and the outlook for the ukraine itself. the outlook is certainly not good. it's hard to see ukraine surviving very long without the distance we know that it's already been in and dire financial straits and deed ihs economists have been working hard on now looking at lowering ukraine sovereign risk rating for that very reason. what about the tutu to come into the dude that the relationship with russia or did he mention wii the rush to using the moon is as as lee virginia in
6:52 am
the last we've seen. at times the pragmatic relationship between the kremlin and ukrainian authorities as always being confrontational or take the power to rise should we ban that in mind when we talk about in a possible new crew west and government in ukraine. yes i think there's a lot of hysteria being hyped up of moments. in the mass media we see allegations that its foreign forces are war the usual kind of rhetoric that arises in these instances. and to the kremlin is seeking a similar line single out of the foreign minister at the end the excuse of it. refer to wear sunscreen clyde that's a d was supporting that says the new nazis extremists in ukraine. so at the moment went to the noises coming from lhasa is that is very much. and just cry it's quite critical of the opposition
6:53 am
however as you say russia will always have an interest in maintaining relations with members in power in ukraine it's very much for my relationship and one that licensees is extremely important. and consequently whoever comes to power as likely see on one hand pressure from russia today to conform to its desires but also added overtures from us in order to to keep them all good just to give us a brief review will lift a few examples of the things that i knew ukrainian leadership would have to negotiate with with russia. no one be it for talking about the opposition coming to power its eye on the undercard the opposition and they would certainly be in a tax lien interested in everyday sitting in the basement the crimea although did not successfully. this is very unlikely as it sets a strategically important. i'm
6:54 am
an actor for russia. you also have the ox is very likely been receiving tymoshenko and a dresser for its parts looking to you perhaps pressure on by the gas price it's just that i may be renegotiated. let's get back to the to the true texan in ukraine. we hear an ll from from demonstrates is that this whole movement is less about joining the eu than it is about to clean up politics i want the thing that really means it mean for for example is it about suppressing the only gone to simply bringing them over to your pain cool is that we know how handy thing to screen in politics can actually look and practice. personally it's unlikely that society and politics to change overnight we see already how difficult that st is after the orange revolution largely failed to achieve its aims of the oligarchs have
6:55 am
consistently played an important role and also play both sides which is something that differentiates ukraine from us and to some extent and that the oligarchs intended to be careful in and supporting both sides to some extent. consequently it were unlikely to see a major change in their role in ukrainian politics. but as they say that may well be assessed and the kinds of policies that they're supporting. gc any any shift in the unit would breathe in that the decision on the donkey and we sometimes hear about some of them been to becoming much more skeptical about academic habitual is that stewart's of a general sense of. we got a head job at some unknown make any rash moves yet. it's a great crowd interesting role in one of its probably not been given and enough coverage thus far. but you do have some men who have been alienated by the dismissals have taken place within
6:56 am
the present ministry sent up into his notably one of those and we think it's likely that he's been covering the fighting opposition. but that is the male guards their loyalty and curb expenses and meats that have reportedly played quite an important role in commencing things from escalating. for instance opposing the position of the state of emergency you'll have to leave and then thank you soo much you'll analysis in the smoke would head of europe and cis analysis of the consulting company on hs country risk joining us from london that school for this edition of the interview. the center down to earth. for a trip down to a team. yet while the rest of africa means of wanted to be honest i really
