And what about Donbas reintegration program?

Many people do not understand this question. And it's a pity. How will they work with people?  What will be done first?  For how long will local residents be deprived of the right to choose their own government and be elected? What will the system of working with the population that lived in conditions of brutal propaganda and dehumanization of Ukraine consist of?  Where to get and who will train the police for these areas? Is there a plan what and when to restore?  And is there an understanding of which cities will be rebuilt, residents will be provided with work, and which ones will not?

After all, it's time to honestly admit that there is no sense and resources for the actual construction of cities from scratch, if jobs are not created there and local people have nowhere to work.  And there should be a resettlement program for those whose homes cannot be restored.

And also issues with ecology and demining. After all, the water and land in Donbas are really poisoned, and the number of mines and unexploded shells is incredibly large. All this requires a plan for solving problems and a program for the reintegration of Donbas.

But if the situation with them is the same as with the strategy of returning refugees to Ukraine, then the problem is enormous.  Because these are the cases when the problem will not disappear after the usual loud statements and pathetic interviews.

And I also do not recommend entertaining yourself with false hopes that it will be possible to deal with it later. Then there will be no time to prepare and create a program, and the problem will remain. And the authorities should think about it.

I apologize that I am not in pink ponies and rainbows, but if today we do not think about the future of Ukraine and do not prepare to solve problems, then tomorrow we will wake up under the weight of everything that will fall on Ukraine at the same time.  And even if the beginning of the "Great Unbreakable Revival" is announced tomorrow, it will not affect the elimination of problems. Maybe there will be a strategy of dividing the budgets, but there will be no result.

Therefore, it is time for the leadership of Ukraine to adopt this direction not in words, but in action. Because the clock is ticking...
