25. On 2 May 2014 in Odesa, 48 people died31 as a result of clashes between ‘pro-unity’
and ‘pro-federalism’ groups. Deliberate inaction in the face of the violence, ill-preparedness
or negligence on the part of various authorities contributed to this death toll. First, the
police did not intervene to prevent or stop the violence at Kulykove Pole square. Then the
fire brigade, which is located very close to the House of Trade Unions where many
protestors suffocated to death, received repeated urgent calls for intervention but responded
with a fatal delay of 45 minutes.

26. While the ‘pro-unity’ and ‘pro-federalism’ groups both played a part in the escalation
of violence, the subsequent criminal prosecutions for hooliganism or public disorder appear to have been initiated in a partial fashion. Only activists from the ‘pro-federalism’ camp
have been prosecuted so far, while the majority of victims were supporters of ‘pro-
federalism’ movement. Despite a large number of deaths during the 2 May 2014 violence,
the trial of the only person to be accused of an act of killing in the city centre has not yet
started. It is persistently transferred from one court to another court in Odesa. Judges have
refused to try the accused, reportedly due to pressure from the ‘pro-unity’ camp.

28. On 26 February 2014, two people died as result of clashes in the city of Simferopol. In
Kharkiv, two people were killed on 14 March 2014, during the clashes between ‘pro-unity’
and ‘pro-federalism’ supporters, and four people were killed by a blast during the ‘March of
Dignity’ on 22 February 2015. On 31 August 2015, four servicemen were killed during
protests near the Parliament building in Kyiv. As of 1 June 2016, accountability for all these
deaths is pending.33

If Russia and Ukraine can pull back from the brink of a large-scale violent conflict, the crisis is likely to revive the discussion about the principles of regional autonomy and perhaps federalism. For a country the size of Ukraine, this could prove a fruitful avenue for managing its regional diversity. For political elites ‘federalism’ has been a dirty word since the collapse of the Soviet Union, but the Ukrainian crisis could ultimately pave the way toward a more constructive engagement with the idea.

Das autobiografisch grundierte, auf mehreren Ebenen zeitlich ineinander verschachtelte Filmgedicht beginnt mit einer Logopädin, die einen jugendlichen Stotterer per Hypnose zu heilen versucht. Es sind Momente fast unerträglicher Intensität, in denen sie ihm die Antwort nach seinem Herkunftsort, dem ukrainischen Charkiw, abringt, die Hände auflegt und schließlich befiehlt, künftig befreit zu sprechen. In einwandfreiem Russisch gelingt es ihm auf Anhieb.
