Abstract
Vladimir Putin will see the Ukraine ceasefire agreement as a reward for his brinkmanship and a vindication of his strategy, writes Mathew Davies. The agreement in Minsk between Russia and the Ukraine does not deserve the label "peace plan". While the plan may diffuse specific tensions in rebel-held areas, it does nothing to resolve the fundamental issue that has seen ongoing Russian efforts to undermine Ukraine.
