CONTEXT UPDATE Ukraine continued to experience significant shifts in policy and rhetoric towards eastern Ukraine throughout the reporting period, first and foremost at the September 30 Unity Forum in Mariupol with the participation of the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy, senior Ukrainian officials, key public leaders, and arts and cultural representatives – all hosted at the USAID DG East- supported Multiservice Center. During the Forum, the president highlighted the necessity of returning the non-government-controlled areas (NGCA) not by means of a “hot” conflict, but via successful economic and social growth overall in Ukraine. This point can demonstrate positive signals to NGCA residents and motivate them to reach out to a successful Ukraine. In his speech, President Zelenskyy focused special attention on Ukraine’s and Ukrainians’ indivisibility and the fact that all citizens need to strive towards coherence and joint growth. The president sent a clear message that the problems in eastern Ukraine can be resolved only by diplomatic means, relying on Ukrainian powers and with international support. In the last two months, this idea has proven correct. Ukraine has taken active steps regarding troop withdrawal, exchange of prisoners, and the start of social development and infrastructure revival in areas where it seemed impossible before. Troop withdrawal was not definitively accepted by civil society in the East. Troop disengagement was almost disrupted in Zolote (Luhansk Oblast) in October by nationalist organizations opposed to the withdrawal from the town, in particular, the National Corps, which promised to remain in the city even without the army’s support. The conflict was settled only after the president arrived in Zolote. The next disengagement, in Petrivske (Donetsk Oblast), took place in November without any particular problems. The first meeting of the Ukrainian, Russian, German, and French heads of state – the Normandy Format – in over three years took place in December 2019. This historic event, preceded by months of troop withdrawal at points along the line of contact, was actively debated in media and among citizens. Representatives of patriotic civic organizations feared that President Zelenskyy would accept Russia’s conditions. Some political forces from eastern Ukraine expected positive changes to end the conflict. Information circulated among NGCA residents that a peace agreement might be reached. Ukraine advocated for amending the Minsk agreements regarding the transfer of control over the border before elections in the occupied territories. Russia did not agree to these conditions. As a result, a very general declaration was signed stating commitment to the Minsk agreements, with only two items specified: the exchange of prisoners before the new year, and troop withdrawal in three places. Many political observers concluded that such an “understatement” after the Normandy Four meeting means the war will continue in 20201. Although the Normandy Format meeting did not result in significant breakthroughs regarding the peace process, the fact that it took place – and that the next iteration is planned for April 2020 – is itself momentous. 1 https://korrespondent.net/ukraine/politics/4176842-prohnoz-dlia-donbassa-na-2020-hod-Atlantic- Council 5 Another high-profile event was the December 12 arrest of the alleged killers of journalist Pavlo Sheremet, who was murdered in Kyiv in 2016. Volunteers and Anti-Terrorist Operation (ATO) participants were named as suspects in the murder. They denied their guilt, and their support group considered the charges trumped up. Civil society representatives discussed in social networks the assumption that the case was fabricated to undermine public confidence in representatives of the volunteer and veteran movements, which enjoy high levels of trust among Ukrainians.2 In the context of general national policy, regional policy in eastern Ukraine is under considerable pressure from local political forces. In light of the upcoming elections, which are tentatively scheduled for October 2020, as well as completion of the decentralization process, many key civil society figures, such as the leaders of public organizations, receive proposals from various political forces to lead election campaigns in exchange for future support. At the same time, the SCORE results for 2019, which were presented in December, showed that, in general, the mood of the eastern Ukraine residents became more positive. People in the region commend the changes in the areas of social services, healthcare and the provision of administrative services. Moreover, the survey showed that the lowest indicator is the assessment of the availability of services in the field of post-secondary education.
