from the neoliberal prime minister allied with the neo-Nazis in Kiev:

Ukraine’s Prime Minister Yatsenyuk: We will commemorate the heroes by cleaning our land from the evil
15 June, 03:17

“We bow our heads to the heroes who lost their lives for the sake of their country, to prevent the war from coming into the house of each of us”, - said the Prime-Minister of Ukraine Arseniy Yatsenyuk while expressing condolences to the families and friends of those military men killed last night near Luhansk.

“They lost their lives because they defended men and women, children and the elderly who found themselves in a situation facing a threat to be killed by invaders and sponsored by them inhumans. First, we will commemorate the heroes by wiping out those who killed them and then by cleaning our land from the evil”, - he said.

Arseniy Yatsenyuk reassured that the Government of Ukraine will take care of the families and loved ones of those killed.


"Yats" is obviously not doing any nuance, let alone seeking peace, but that's no surprise after his similarly rabid May 9th speech invoking the Western allies standing with him in a new world war. Oh, right, not to mention the bloody massacres by his military and the Svoboda paramilitaries, attack helicopter deployments, etc.

Chocolate king Poroshenko seems a lot less rabid, but who knows? The first move to peace has to be to dissolve this rabid government and get a new parliament elected. If he does that, however, he may find a new "democratic uprising" (supporting "Europe&quot trying to send him into exile too.

Good thing "democracy" triumphed, eh?

How can someone be "anti-coup" if they are unable to prove a coup actually happened? nt Tommy_Carcetti Jun 2014 #4
I think it's unfair to focus on such a small minority. joshcryer Jun 2014 #15
I see you're back to calling it a "coup" even after admitting you have no proof one occurred. Tommy_Carcetti Jun 2014 #3
Is Svoboda in the Kiev government? JackRiddler Jun 2014 #5
And that supports your position of a "coup government" how? Tommy_Carcetti Jun 2014 #7
I see you're still making excuses for a fascist party. JackRiddler Jun 2014 #6
You clearly have very little understanding how parliamentary procedure works. nt Tommy_Carcetti Jun 2014 #8
Is Svoboda in the Kiev government or not? JackRiddler Jun 2014 #9

Pedantry. JackRiddler Jun 2014 #17
No. The situation in Crimea was not caused by a stalled bill on the Russian language. Tommy_Carcetti Jun 2014 #18
Laughable disinformation. JackRiddler Jun 2014 #19
