In what strength, i wonder? With the Crimea gone, Ukraine cannot afford to lose Odessa. If the pro-Russia forces take any major government buildings there, the Ukrainian government is going to have to take them back, regardless of how Putin may use such an action.

Nope. Putin needs Odessa and Ukraine is going to have to learn to live without it. Ukraine can’t win and it’s very doubtful we are going to go to war with Russia over this. Puntin can have Odessa and then he’ll move on Transnistria. Not much we can do about it.
