CONCLUSION
The adoption by the Ukrainian Parliament of the law on the special status of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions allows us to hope for an early end to the current stage of the Ukrainian crisis. The crisis itself is far from over, but we must do everything possible to ensure that its subsequent stages take place without any military intervention and with limited political participation from Russia.
The law on the special status of the areas of Donbass affected by the uprising, together with the law on Amnesty, were obviously key elements of the joint plan to resolve the crisis. The result of the implementation of these agreements is likely to be the actual transformation of these regions into an unrecognized state entity, which is economically an appendage of Russia. The implementation of the peace plan may be disrupted as a result of provocations or unforeseen events, but neither side is interested in this.
During the period of the law on the status of a part of Donbass, an army with a unified command system, designated as the "people's militia", and a working state apparatus will be created there. The region will obviously be maintained by Russia, becoming another significant burden on the budget. Given the alarming prospects for the development of the socio-economic situation in Ukraine, it is highly doubtful that the ratio of military forces between Novorossiya and Kiev will change in favor of the latter. The dialogue on the political status of Novorossiya promises to be protracted, and as it is conducted, the likelihood of war will decrease.
