#Ukraine running out of options as tension mounts | beyondbrics - #EuroMaidan

Ukraine running out of options as tension mounts | beyondbrics:

"With protesters in Kiev apparently settling in for a long haul, the question that looms increasingly large is: what happens next? The status quo is looking increasingly unviable but, so far, Ukraine’s government appears to have no plan B.

Or rather, it appears to have three plan Bs, none of which stands much chance of success.

As the Kyiv Post reported, as of Wednesday Ukraine has three delegations scouring the world for support:

President Viktor Yanukovych left for China on Dec. 3, leaving the country when thousands continued to protest in the streets against the government policy and violence. First Deputy Prime Minister Serhiy Arbuzov went to Brussels to negotiate a road map to singing an association agreement with the European Union. And a deputy foreign minister went to Russia to prepare the ground for Yanukovych’s visit to Moscow at the end of the week."
