On March 24, Ukrainians launched an online-protest against recognition of Russia’s Donbas puppet republics on Facebook. Under the coronavirus quarantine restrictions, any “offline” form of protest is currently practically impossible in Ukraine. However, the March 25 is the date when an online meeting of the Minsk Trilateral Contact Group (TCG) is going to take place. Initially, the meeting should have been taken place in person in Minsk. The plan was to sign an agreement on establishing a Consultation Council that would engage representatives of the so-called Donetsk and Luhansk people’s republics (“DNR” and “LNR”) – state-like entities designed and fully controlled by Russia in the easternmost Ukrainian region of the Donbas.
