however, Poroshenko was distracted from the situation in the Donbas and addressing systemic issues - bribery and oligarchy.

The head of Ukraine and a Russian oligarch, who until now has not fulfilled a campaign promise to abandon its business interests. He was accused similarly, in the appointment of business partners and friends to government positions.
He first supported the government in Kiev, on their partners, and the development of a new class of loyal oligarchic power, can undermine the process of reconciliation in Ukraine, the expert said.
