No kidding. Not the case, if there is truly a need for some demagogue speech, the Kremlin can withstand some of that but it won't replace the real thing. He should be touring the east and south east holding rallies to explain what will be the policies from the New Kiev authorities towards these communities, how the power will deal with the outstanding issues and more importantly say how tolerant is the Ukrainian nation, that of course all the necessary steps to accommodate the Russian speaking communities will be made, reassure that no discrimination will be tolerated while stand firm over the principle that of course no non native language of any non native communities of Ukrainian territories will be given a state language status. The FCNM will be fully enforced to guarantee the Russian speaking communities their culture can thrive and art will be encouraged while thanking their communities for the tremendous contribution they make to Ukraine's economy and society. That's how I look at it, I know u r a bit fan of the guy but so far I think he lacks some courage, even if u were right and I doubt it, but let's say some of the local leaders want to please the Kremlin hoping for some favour in return, these communities are made of folks that are worried of their future and awaiting clear answers that they will not find themselves tomorrow with the same headaches the Russian Baltics communities have experienced, I haven't seen him deliver on that.
