The thing is, they do have to deal with the situation in the east. And if keeping such a situation under control and stabilizing it takes signing any documents, even if they have long-term consequences, they just have to go on and sign them. Otherwise, the integrity and sovereignty of the entire country might be at stake, and that is the first thing to avoid. They may do some little harm to avoid much bigger harm.
