KIEV: Thousands of people marched through central Kiev on Monday to protest against President Volodymyr Zelenskiy's deal with Moscow to grant special status to a pro-Russian rebel-held region of eastern Ukraine as part of efforts to end a five-year conflict there.
Ukrainian, Russian and separatist negotiators agreed last month that Kiev would grant the territory controlled by the separatists a special status and hold elections there.The peace plan was previously rejected by the government. Zelenskiy has said he would"never betray Ukraine" and"any red line will not be crossed".But many Ukrainians say these measures are a betrayal by Zelenskiy who took power in April after a landslide election win.
"We have little information about this and it suggests that something is being prepared that we don’t like," said Pavlo Musiyenko, who was at the rally with his wife and child.
