CEASE FIRE IN THE WORKS?
I hope these negotiations pan out and that the insurgent rebels in the east will be open to laying down their arms.
Poroshenko has said before that he wanted a cease-fire, but today was the first time he said government forces will be the first to halt hostilities, which has been Russia's main demand.
If Poroshenko and Putin can pull it off so quickly after Poroshenko's election and restore relative peace within and around Crimea, it'll be a victory for both of them. IMO.
Skeptical, but hopeful.
