They are humilated by combination of facts such as casualties due to explosions on their positions (which most likely were caused by themselves), and most recent that Germany and France has decided to continue discussion on the situation with Russia, thus excluding Ukraine (likely Ukraine didn't received updated instructions from US curators yet and is not ready to continue talks, or simply refusing). Or, this act simply been made to attract more attention towards them.
Press Secretary for the President of Russia, Dmitry Peskov has spoken in detail about ongoing developments during talks with the Norman Format, (which is very interesting since it's rare of Peskov to speak in detail, he's usually keeping his mouth shut). Shortly, things are very bad, Ukraine calls for Norman Format meetings, but can't come up with agreements that would be acceptable for other sides, yet deeming Minsk regulations outdated, without providing anything to replace or willing to get in contact with heads of People's Republics.
- And if this tension escalates into hostilities? Will Moscow be able to refuse support to the DPR and LPR, given how many citizens with Russian passports live there?
- We sincerely hope that no one will go for this madness. We just really hope so. There is nothing left to say. - Dmitry Peskov
And now, once we know that diplomacy has failed, Parliament (Verkhovna Rada) gives off this statement: "The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine accused Russia of the latest escalation in Donbass, demanded to stop strikes and withdraw troops from Donbass and return the territory to Ukraine." They directly accusing Russia now.
On top of that, The Parliament of Ukraine adopted a bill that provides the right to call-in (or mobilise) reservists for six months during a "special period". Such a special period has been in effect in Ukraine since 2014.
As i can see, there are no more questions left about if there will something happen or not, it is clear already - There will be war.
The only obstacle that holding them down for now is weather, it's worsened a lot lately. Most recent war journalists footage made on defence lines shows that there are high humidity, rain/snow falls, a fog. They have to wait before they stat something.
