"Instead of federalization, which we so afraid of, we get the feudalism of Ukraine"

Analyst: Ukraine threatens feudalization instead of federalization


Independence led to a redistribution of influence between the Ukrainian oligarchs, without breaking the existing system; oligarchs still control the country's economy, experts say Kiev.
MOSCOW, March 25 - RIA Novosti . The struggle between the Ukrainian oligarchs, as well as the contradictions between them and the government can lead to feudalism of the country, according to the Kiev journalist and political analyst Vitaly Portnikov, quoted by " Radio Liberty ".
"Instead of federalization, which we so afraid of, we get the feudalism of Ukraine", - he said.
According to the analyst, it is unrealistic to imagine that the oligarchic model of the Ukrainian state would cease to exist in a simple, consensus-based process.
The head of the analytical center of Kiev "Third Sector" Andrei Zolotarev believes that it is too early to say whether the president of Ukraine Poroshenko supports the need for "deoligarhizatsii" Ukrainian economy and the removal of the political power of the oligarchs. According to him, Maidan only initiated "oligarchic restructuring" redistribution of power and wealth.
"Independence broke the oligarchic system - said in this regard," Radio Liberty ". - This is evidenced by the fact that he is a typical member of Poroshenko oligarchic club."
According to the former head of the State Property Fund of Ukraine Oleksandr Bondar, which results in the publication, the oligarchs retain control of the Ukrainian economy, "Akhmetov controls the energy sector, metallurgy and telecommunications. Firtash controls the chemical sector. They continue to hold power in their hands, and they will continue blackmail the government. "
This situation leads to the fact that the state loses the chance to carry out reforms, says Cooper. "We are distracted from what is really happening in the economy", - he said.
