I gave up on predictions. Things tend to surpass any of my boldest expectations. From what I see, I doubt any new president will be able to quiet things down, not at this point. Either USA, Europe and Russia agree upon the federalization of Ukraine or there is a potential for civil war. Passions are at the boiling point right now and there's nobody willing to cool things off. Russia needs Ukrainian federation to block its allegiance with NATO and prevent it from associating with EU. At this point, I can only presume, that this is a matter of principle. Ukraine is not going West. Period. Russia said it, and I think it will do everything in its power to enforce that statement. Now there's a quesiton if this matter is clear enough to EU and USA.
