The compromise between Yanukovych and the leaders of the opposition is a long-overdue step back from a disaster, but much remains unclear. Clearly, stopping the violence is priority one, and it is not yet clear whether all the factions participating in the protests in the Maidan have accepted the compromise. Assuming the compromise in Kyiv holds and is accepted by all parties in the provinces, the next Ukrainian government will face a set of grim prospects, the worst of which is that Ukraine is running out of money. The damage to the economy, which had been stalling before the unrest began, may not be known for some time, but is certain to be severe. The government had less than $18 billion in reserves at the end of January, and is reportedly facing $13 billion in debt-servicing obligations in 2014. Standard & Poor’s downgrade of Ukrainian sovereign debt today included a warning that the rating agency expected Ukraine to default on its foreign currency obligations. That points to the glaring omission in the statements coming from Washington and Brussels: there is no word of a Marshall Plan for Ukraine that opposition leader Arseniy Yatsenyuk appealed for recently.
