If one considers the strategic ambitions of the separatists and their Russian patrons, Ukraine's prospects are even bleaker. Beyond supplying the separatist groups with heavy and advanced weapons, and deploying special units and forces to support them, Russia now appears to be sending in “volunteers" to train a separatist army that could ultimately go on the offensive.
如果考虑分裂分子及其俄罗斯庇护者的战略野心，乌克兰的前景就更加黯淡了。俄罗斯不但向分裂组织提供重武器和先进武器，还部署特种部队支持他们，而如今，俄罗斯似乎还在派遣“志愿者”前去训练分裂势力部队，使其立刻可以继续战斗。
