Heil... Ukraine! Lvov. 9.5.2011.

The question of separation of Galicia is a question of time. At least the first signs of this are obvious:   

1.On the 10th of May in Lvov took place an extraordinary event for all time of existence of post-Soviet Ukraine. The head of Lvov Regional State Administration (RSA), Michael Cymbalyuk made a statement of resignation, and did so during a "conversation" with the deputies of regional and city councils from All-Ukrainian Union "Svoboda", with regard to the known events in Lvov on May 9.  The meaning of the event and its assessment is determined by exceptional circumstances, when the deputies of local Councils of the neo-Nazi party "Svoboda" actually forced their appointed president Cymbalyuk to accept the resignation, using the power of "persuasion", bypassing all the legal procedures, through  the imposition of two-thirds no-confidence vote of regional council.

They blocked him in his office and warned that they will not leave until RSA does not agree with their demand for his resignation.

2. On May 12, an extraordinary session of the Lvov regional council adopted an appeal to the Ukrainian people, in which deputies c alled for a coup in Ukraine. "Our task is to work together to sweep away the existing power to the dustbin of history" - stated Lvov deputies, along with crypto fascists from Ukrainian Union "Svoboda", the chief violin players amongst them.
3. We are used to the fact that no matter how many different activists turn on each other, the police always plays the role of a forester from the famous anecdote - comes and chases all away. Actually, the police are the central axis of street politics. However, should a really large crowd congregate one day, which would overturn the police, nobody knows what kind of constitutional order will be in the country the next morning. May 9, 2011 in Lvov was a grand rehearsal.

The case when the world should accept the loss of independence. Especially after the 1990 model. There are several options to solve the "Galician question" in Ukraine and Europe. Anti-Russian, anti-Semitic, pro-fascist sentiments in Galicia leave her very little chance of the option other than the EU protectorate. Galicia became worst than brigandish Kosovo. In Kosovo, particularly the Albanian mafia clans earn on drugs, human traffic and prostitution. In Galicia have bloomed to full flower radical nationalism. To eradicate fascism, it would take at least one generation, even two, restricted from open public agitation as exercised by Tyahnybok(s). 

This is only possible with the introduction of external control in the region. Most likely, such control would be carried out by the EU by closing the borders of Galicia around its perimeter, and placing all communications under armed guardian forces.  This is particularly relevant for the electrical networks. On the rest of the territory of the former Ukraine should be imposed ban on the OUN-UPA, Bandera, Shukhevych and other fascists. All of the most active agents of fascist ideology should face criminal responsibility modelled after the Nuremberg Trials. At least the attempt to destroy the Ruthenian nation by the Ukrainian authorities deserves such measures. In any case, public entity under the name of Ukraine is already dead. Without Galicia, the remaining territories would acquire a normal civilized form. There will begin the process of solution of vital problems in the interests of people, not the interests of Galicia. As for Galicia, it needs a separate program, preferably under external control. Ukraine would no longer be able to with stand Galicia with its nationalist antiques even economically. Galician nationalism inside its territory could be eliminated in 50-70 years. Implementation of some sort of stable ideology to replace the existing one, and especially the ideology of tolerance, would take at least 50 to 80 years.    

In this respect, a good example is Germany, which renounced fascism after the collapse of its statehood. However, the neo-fascist ideas remain very strong, even though there have passed 64 years. The second option is the return to the bosom of Mother Poland, where it would be dealt with in accordance with existing laws. However, in any case, it would require 5-10 years of external control. The third option, the most fantastic and dangerous, is to issue independent status to Galician state. Secession of Western Ukraine would not only preserve its rabid nationalism, but also give into the hands of nationalists uncontrolled power in the region..

In any case, there should be addressed the issue of Subcarpathian Rus` as well ! To be continued…
