Latest rumour is...

...Putin will don his "reasonable mask" again. Showing "humanitarian concern" for pro-Russians, he will press for a federal Ukraine, more autonomy for eastern regions, language rights for russophones. This will allow him to insert some Putinist stooges and Russian nationalist firebrands into local government in the east, effectively hampering Kyiv's ability to take a strong line against Moscow and enabling Putin to interfere in Ukrainian internal affairs on a whim.
