What should be the new Ukrainian power? Federal Ukraine? A Ukrainian republic within Russia? Union of People’s Republics? For Dmitry Rodionov, these are aspects that he must decide ”Inhabitants of the liberated landsOn top of all this, the real interest is south and thus re-unitein one economic and social complexHowever, the timing and methods are still unknown.
