From being a radical to being the President?
In the light of recent events in Ukraine
we can see how the new Ukrainian government is trying to suck and whistle at
the same time. After the regime of Yanykovich was overthrown the radical
elements of Maidan have been given an honored role of liberators and heroes.
The exploit of those killed in clashes is out of question as long as they knew
that they were fighting for a better future of Ukraine. But life is more
complicated than that. We don’t know for sure how many of those killed were
members of radical organizations. Most of them weren’t, they just were ordinary
people. And now we can see that such organizations like RIGHT SECTOR are taking
advantage of this situation giving the new government to understand that they
owe the radicals something for the victory over Yanykovich. The situation is
surreal as on the one hand a democratic movement of the Ukraine
wouldn’t look so right if it had such avid supporters of radical groups which
are often called Neo-Nazis, on the other hand the new government can hardly do
anything about it as they don’t have real power to oppose RIGHT SECTOR and the
like. If they do, they will follow into Ynykovich’s footsteps, in other words,
they will be overthrown. Is it really possible? It’s known that a few magazines
where different kinds of fire weapon used to be stored were ransacked by
radical organizations. The exact figure of weapon missing is unknown but it is
about several thousands of guns, assault rifles and other. (Here is an example
of such an attack) http://www.unian.net/politics/886537-vo-lvove-iz-zahvachennyih-rayotdelov-militsii-pohischeno-orujie.html
And now the new Prime minister A. Yatzenyuk realizing the danger of those
radical groups can do nothing but accommodate their requests as to being part
of an official power in Ukraine. Here you can read how Yatsenyuk dismissed three
deputies of Ukraine’s
defense minister as they opposed to giving the Right Sector militants the
status of regular military units. http://en.itar-tass.com/world/722460
Do we all understand how that legalization of the RIGHT SECTOR is going to be
taken by the majority of Ukrainian society?
It’s also interesting the radical groups
not only want to fight now but they also want to rule the country. The leader
of the RIGHT SECTOR Dmytro Yarosh is going to run for presidency. http://www.kyivpost.com/content/politics/right-sector-leader-yarosh-to-run-for-president-338685.html
What the WEST is going to say on the issue?
Seems like all the WEST wants now is protect and advocate the new government while
giving a blind eye to all the faults and shortcomings of the latter.
