PoliticsWeek’s milestones. Nadia and hunger, assassination attempt with a trail, and media showdown

Week’s milestones. Effects of procession, female factor, and ritual Yefremov
The situation in the Ukrainian Orthodoxy has further heated an already elevated temperature in the Ukrainian society. Oleksandr Yefremov’s detention came as a surprise not only to the ex-member of the Party of Regions. With the assistance from Nadia Savchenko, separatist leaders received an opportunity to simulate peacekeeping efforts on the background of the dragging Minsk talks.

Ukrainian interest. Transatlantic intrigue, Putin’s machinations, and EU under attack
The U.S. presidential campaign has determined the main contenders. The president of Russia abolished the "Crimean Federal District", showing his puppets their real place. The Kremlin has decided to change Mikhail Zurabov, who has been an ambassador to Ukraine for seven years, for someone less annoying to Ukraine. Angela Merkel calls for taking joint anti-terrorism measures at EU level.

Why was Crimea attached to Kalmykia
The decision of the Russian leadership to disband the "Crimean Federal District" and include the occupied Crimea in the Southern Federal District is an expected operation of the Kremlin, which Moscow hopes to use to bypass part of the international sanctions and to improve control over the distribution of plundered public funds.

Week’s milestones. Terrorist attack in Kyiv, Prime Minister’s anniversary and optimistic Speaker
The death of Pavlo Sheremet could trigger a social and political crisis. Nadia Savchenko is dancing to someone else’s tune. The anniversary of Volodymyr Groysman’s first 100 days in office was a rather routine affair. Rada Speaker Andriy Parubiy appears overly optimistic about Parliament’s performance.

Ukrainian interest. Groysman in Brussels, Trump at it again, and "gift" from Sejm
On the eve of the first anniversary of his Government, Ukraine’s Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman visited Brussels to hold talks with the leaders of the European Union. Donald Trump became the official candidate from the GOP in the U.S. presidential election. Labeling by the Polish Sejm of the Volyn tragedy as “genocide” is unlikely to improve Polish-Ukrainian relations.

Week’s milestones: Rada on hiatus, by-election with violations and PGO on rise
Ukrainian legislators appear to have gone on summer vacation with no sense of guilt. By-elections in seven constituencies can hardly be deemed as another victory for the country’s democracy.

The Ukrainian MPs sacrificed their colleague just to get drawn in another round of confrontation between the coalition and the opposition under the Rada dome.
