COUP IN KIEV DON NOT WARRANT NEITHER PEACE NOR NATIONAL UNITY

COUP IN KIEV DON NOT WARRANT NEITHER PEACE NOR NATIONAL UNITY

GOLPISTAS EN KIEV NO GARANTIZAN PAZ NI UNIDAD NACIONAL 

Hugo Adan, Feb 25, 2014

INTRODUCTION

 I reaffirm myself in the thesis that the only solution to the current crisis of Ukraine is the creation of two autonomous Federations, one in the North and the other one in the South. Each one with their own Constitutional State, Central Bank and own currency.  Flag and national anthem are minor problems and both can adopt similar tones with small differences.  The important thing is that both of them have To  have the right to decide their own domestic and foreign policies independently.

It is the right to self-determination what is at stake and this right is recognized by the UNITED NATIONS and international Laws. They can adopt especial agreements between both independent states for trading and circulation of people in both sides, especially if they have family and property in both sides.  The relations could be like the one we have between Canada and  USA.

The case is that now Kiev cannot force southern habitants to a culture, ideology and visions of future that are totally different.  So there is not point in fighting nor wasting time anymore.  What we are seeing with the Kiev rulers today is enough.

1. Does the current rulers of Kiev, starting with Olek Turchynov, warrant freedom and democracy for the future of a united country?. I do not think so. This person has been kidnapped, coopted or subordinated  to and by the neo-nazi squads of the Svoboda party . Even the BBC recognize this fact:  “like all of the mainstream opposition politicians, Mr. Turchynov is not entirely trusted or respected”  by leaders  of protesters in Kiev’s Independence Square. The ones who are now in charge of power are the ultra nationalist Svoboda party and their allied -armed hand- the rightist Pravi Sector.   

Alek Muzychko, one of the leaders of Svoboda party-alliance has pledged to fight against “Jews and Russians until I die.”  Muzychko declared that now that Yanukovych has been overthrown, “there will be order and discipline” or “the Right Sector squads will shoot the bastards on the spot.”  http://nsnbc.me/2014/02/23/ukrainian-parliament-drops-mask-reveals-fascist-nature/   

Let’s see in detail this type of  “peace and order”  they are implementing  in Kiev.

Let’s start with the latest news circulated by the BBC of London today the 25^th of Feb-14: Ukraine crisis: Turchynov warns of 'separatism' risk. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-26333587

What?..  separatism? .. We were told by the  American that there is not sign of separatism in Ukraine.  They lie and misinformed  us as usual. “Turchynov  comments came amid continuing opposition in Ukraine's Russian-speaking regions to the new administration in Kiev”, said the BBC. “The formation of a unity government has been delayed until Thursday.”  

Why people in the South East do not recognize the rulers of Kiev?  To me, it stands to reason:  banning Russian language in a bilingual country and by decree, was a sign of exclusion, xenophobia anti-Russia,  and, a sign of neo-nazi stupidity.  BBC adds: Speaking on Kanal 5 TV, Mykhaylo  Dobkin, gave as his reason: “the fact, a total attack on the rights of the Russian-speaking population is under way, laws are being adopted that threaten all those who do not accept fascism and Nazism".

Let’s go to RT news from Tuesday Feb 25-14  http://rt.com/news/kiev-clashes-rioters-police-571/    

03:21 GMT: The prosecutor’s office in the Volyn region in western Ukraine and members of the Party of Regions in the adjacent Rivne region said they are being pressured and threatened to resign by radicals, RIA Novosti reports.

At the same time, members of the Party of Regions in the adjacent Rivne say they are being pressured by Maidan activists.  "Armed masked youth burst into the homes” of the party’s members, demanding a list of activists who “participated in the so-called anti-Maidan protest, threatening physical violence and arson of houses," said Alla Ivoylovoy, deputy chairman of the Party of Regions in Rivne.

So, there is not  sign of peace nor intention to unite the nation, not even respect of public security, private property  nor order in Kiev.  Is it possible to talk about reconciliation after the cup ? .  The BBC (same source above) gives the answer:  “Meanwhile there are reports that one of Mr Yanukovych's former aides, Andriy Kliuyev, has been shot and wounded”.  Reuters quoted  Turchynov as saying “Anyone held responsible for separatist moves should be punished”. 

All this means that citizens in the North region don’t have the right to quit from a government post nor to  dissent.  I can imagine the feelings of the 9 governors that already renounced to government positions after the cup across the nation. Or imagine the fear of Kiev parliamentarian who dare to say NO to the neo-nazi squads. We should remember that the president of the Parliament  was severely beating  and send to a hospital the day 22. I wonder what would have happened to Yanukovych if these cannibals found him.  He is alive and inside Ukraine, said the Acting Interior Minister Arsen Avakov  (same BBC source). That we have in Kiev is simply “terrorism”. Can we called  “State terrorism”?.. Not yet, there is Not State in Kiev , but terrorism from  a neo-nazi mafia.

According to nsnbc  before the assault on the Parliament the day 22, “The Ukrainian parliament in Kiev was dominated by the UDAR party of Vitaly Klitchko (recently booed) , the Fatherland  party of Arseniy Yatsenyuk, and the ultra nationalist Svoboda party, led by Oleg Tyagnibok. However,  after the assault to the Parliament the the ultra nationalist and racist Svoboda-right party  -the ones  that controlled the military part of the coup d’état- are now the ones who rules Kiev.   http://nsnbc.me/2014/02/23/ukrainian-parliament-drops-mask-reveals-fascist-nature/

2. Who are these neo-nazis  Svoboda?  They’re just the ones supported by the US and many politicians from Europe. According to globalpost.com  “Many politicians from Europa and the US  came to Kiev to support the new generation of Nazi collaborationists on the barricades. “In L’viv, the Nazi support comes under the guise of Svoboda, the  party that is calling for a Ukraine united  under the motto “one race, one nation, one Fatherland.”   These are the ones who captured the initial pacifist protest of students.

Originally known as the Social-National Party, Svoboda is rooted in Nazi ideology. Svoboda also honors “Ukrainian veterans” who fought with the Nazis against the Soviet Union during the Second World War This party is fighting against a threat which they describe as “Jew Communism.” The issue has been described in an article by Michael Goldfarb in the Global Post,titled “Ukraine’s nationalist party embraces Nazi ideology”   http://www.globalpost.com/dispatch/news/regions/europe/120329/ukraine-svoboda-nationalist-party-nazi-echoes-hitler-pt-2 )

Regarding the Svoboda party Nicolai Petro said on Monday show of Democracy Now that the “EU Parliament resolution of December 13, 2012, drew attention specifically to the Svoboda party and called it racist, anti-Semitic and xenophobic”. Now, compared to Svoboda that has representation inside the Parliament, there is the rightist organization, the Pravi Sector, that shares the same ideology and work like an armed-arm of Svoboda, this one “has been active in all of the violence in the streets, is more radical, more militarily organized and more willing to use violence.” . They are also the ones who lead the assault of the Parliament building and beat severely its President and kill policemen http://www.democracynow.org/2014/2/24/a_coup_or_a_revolution_ukraine   

That it was said by the European Union in 2012, now is mere rhetoric  thrown to the garbage pin. The European Union is offering more 20 Blln out of the 35 Blln that the mafia in power is requesting to rebuild the Nation. Same conditions as before: neoliberal policies, plus “democracy” and accountability. They failed before and now that the neoliberal agenda if collapsing, they will fail again. Why the EU have money to the neo-nazi mafia in Ukraine and not the Greeks?.  Do they want to open doors to Nazism in Europe?. Is the EU not afraid that this mafia will quit from a negotiated agreement as it happens with the signed deal with the radicals on Friday 21^st ?   Is there a deal with NATO behind this issue?   If so, the mafia in Kiev is selling the destiny of Ukraine to an institution that is destroying the world.

Let’s leave this here.
