Reincarnation in dictatorship continues?


You can imagine that in our time, somewhere in the United States or France and Germany, illegal armed groups put forward an ultimatum to the head of state or government, took 48 hours to fulfill their conditions and did not destroy them, but received satisfaction from their neat standards for personnel shake-up in leadership of power structures? Those structures that, according to the laws of any of these countries, must fight against such armed bandits? Brad, you say. But in Ukraine it is the reality of state-building after the February 22 coup d'état.

Moreover, the reality issued by the current Kiev authorities and their Western inspirers and sponsors for the “continuation of the people's revolution”, the “triumph of euromaidan” and “the next victory of democracy and European values”. Because and. about. Minister of the Interior Arsen Avakov, whose first deputy Vladimir Yevdokimov was demanded to be fired, not only agreed with this demand, but also presented him as “long prepared”, and then offered the militants who put forward the ultimatum not to hide from retribution, but to join Army, or the Ministry of the Interior, or the special services. In order, they say, to continue the “business of the revolution” not with a brush from behind a black corner or in a dirty, curved gateway, but, so to speak, legally.

This, as you understand, is about the “peaceful resolution” of the dispute between Avakov and the militants of the Right Sector, headed by the “euromaidan hero” Dmitry Yarosh. I recall a dotted outline stories. Police detained a car with “pravosekami” in Galicia and found in their trunk a whole arsenal of unregistered weaponstaken out of the zone of the so-called ATO. To find out why the weapon was needed in the “Ukrainian Piedmont”, the boys were detained. And then their “daddy” Yarosh put forward an ultimatum to Avakov: if the thugs are not released for 48 hours, the fighters from the PS, mostly serving as projectiles and punitive in the ATO zone, will leave the battlefield and go to Kiev. Understand. In fact, not so with Avakov, as with the supreme commander, who we know who. For the legalization of the post-revolution regime in Kiev, he was 25 elected this May by the people ...

Avakov at first stumbled boldly on Facebook and called Yarosh, to put it mildly, “too much of a kazl”. But just a few hours after this “deed”, I sat down at the negotiating table with the PS representative Borislav Bereza and “decided” everything. First Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs Evdokimov, accused of “PS” of involvement in the murder of “Pravosekovsky” the same scumbag Sasha Bilogo, was summed up. Avakov made his "famous" offer "PS" to enter the security forces. Negotiator “pravosek” Birch nicely and humiliatingly strolled the loser: “Maybe we should voice a few more names to speed up the process of cleaning the Ministry of Internal Affairs from those with whom it is time not just to say goodbye, but to send them to the defendants' bench.” And Yarosh himself expressed a feeling of “deep satisfaction”: “We are really ready to bring order to the state. And to do everything to the ideals of the revolution, they were realized. ... The question of Evdokimov is being considered now at a meeting of the Cabinet of Ministers. We very much hope that the decision about his resignation will be made. We understand that this is now a small, but a victory. Therefore, taking into account the situation at the front, we remain in our positions. ”

The supreme commander-in-chief of the type retained his face, without having said a word about it: they say it is useless to spin the lilies ...

What does this whole situation mean? Almost the collapse of the Ukrainian state in the usual way. It still retains the atavism of any normal state in the form of old, customary and legal state institutions, but these institutions are more and more openly and arrogantly replaced by new ones, such as “born of revolution” and “euromaidan”. And in fact, by illegal armed groups that arose in the fire of a coup d'état, stretched in time from November 2013 to February 2014.

And those who were sure that with the recent dispersal of the dirty and smelly tent public on Independence Square and Khreshchatyk, “Maidan was dead”, rejoiced early. He ceased to exist in such a wretched and caricature form, in which he degenerated with the homelessness in the tents of homeless people, prostitutes, drug addicts, petty criminals and other antisocial personalities who occupied with radishes on the ruins of the “European revolution” and flower beds of the central square of the capital. But the “spirit of Maidan” - as the only source, directing and guiding force of the current regime - continues to live and dictate its will. In a modified form - illegal armed formations that develop in parallel with the state, gradually replacing its institutions.

Since the army, capable of defending the country in case of what, was successfully collapsed into “Euromaidan-2013 / 2014”, then first of all it concerns the power and law enforcement structures - the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the internal troops, the SBU. It was on the “Euromaidan” that their most severe discreditation began as the first step towards elimination from the arena of the state. Recall that the “evromaydayuny” with the tacit and stupid consent of the previous authorities did with the soldiers of the “golden eagle”, the police and “veveshnikami” conscripts. I recall the recollection of one of the mothers of the then fighters who opposed the "triumph of democracy" with the "Molotov cocktails" spewed on the heads of law enforcement officers: "It's a shame for the guys. My daughter has a girlfriend, her son is now in Kiev in the internal troops (sent there now to help). He says the conditions are terrible, the 2 of the day stood hungry, there was nowhere to get warm, to rest. Shoes were removed along with the skin, frozen. About the danger of being killed or burned by these monsters, no one even says. And now these guys just passed? ".

Yes, these guys have passed. Betrayed. Some were killed, some were forced to kneel down and repent in front of the brutal crowd of “primates of European democracy”. With one goal - to weaken and eliminate, replacing their own, such as "faithful revolution." So the Red Guard, and then the Red Workers 'and Peasants' Army replaced the royal army in the 1917-1918 under the Bolsheviks. So the fascists and Nazis Benito Mussolini, Francisco Franco and Adolf Hitler replaced and subjugated the traditional security forces and the army in Italy. Spain and Germany in the first half of the twentieth century. This is happening now in Ukraine after the coup d'état. "In the name of democracy" and "European choice", of course.

A former Komsomol member, who apparently taught the history of the CPSU well, Avakov understands this well. He even wrote on Facebook about the above ultimatum to the Kiev authorities: “Dmitry Yarosh with such orders puts himself above the law. It is both legislative, executive and judicial power in one person. I think that the desire of Dmitry Yarosh to replace state institutions with his sister and instead of changing them from the inside is a dead-end path of development. ” But Avakov was literally forced to move along this dead-end path: after a few hours, the field of these revelations, he said that he "respects the contribution of the members of the Right Sector organization in the fight against terrorism." And invited the "PS" to serve in the police ...

After the discredit on euromaidan, the police cleared the whole country. Then the “old” police officers were sent to the ATO zone and there they were putting under fire the militia of the DPR and the LPR. "Euromaidan", humiliation and murder, cleansing and pseudo-dissolution, attempts to destroy in battles with "separatists" are all links in one chain of eliminating law enforcement officers. When they did not bring quick results, their further discreditation continued while they were performing their official duties. The latest terrible example from this “opera” is the dismissal of five policemen who tried to restore law and order when neo-Nazi militants attacked the Ani Lorak concert on August 3 in Odessa in Odessa. Militants from Svoboda and other neo-Nazi formations climbed onto the police with batons, the police in response used their means of defense and ... were fired for "exceeding their authority."


Now the purge of the governing bodies of the Ministry of Internal Affairs continues. Those who are suspected of “disloyalty” and “euromaidan values” and their carriers, neo-Nazis and neo-fascists, have already been shot down by illegal armed groups, which, by the way, are prohibited by the laws of Ukraine. Purging continues under the tacit approval of the Western sponsors of the current Kiev regime. It is simply and elementarily, unequivocally warned - you will be buzzing and not performing the tasks for which you have been brought to power, the “Euromaidans” will come and show that “the revolution has a beginning, there is no end to the revolution”.

And the regime, as we see, understands everything, bends and agrees to the dictates of the neo-Nazis. How so? Democracy and European choice require! And the fact that it could not pass in any form with impunity in any country of the world that calls itself “civilized” and “democratic” is easily implemented in Ukraine. Under the guise of, I repeat, the triumph of democracy. This is not even the triumph of double standards, but some kind of frank political pharisaism with bloody consequences ...

And the worst thing is that in such a way the Ukrainian state is reborn not just into a dictatorship, but into a neo-Nazi and neo-fascist dictatorship. Given the political colors of the “Right Sector”, “Freedom”, the Radical Party of Oleg Lyashko and other smaller right-wing and hyper-patriotic Ukrainian formations and associations. On them, singing "Sche ne vmerl ..." for any reason, equals all other political parties who want to be, as they say, in the trend. As a result, the ethnocratic dictatorship is slowly, jerking, but inevitably established under the guise of a “national revival of the titular nation of Ukrainians” and the construction of a “Ukrainian Ukraine”. With the tacit approval of the West and the connivance of the same SBU, which does not prevent the rampant neo-Nazism and neo-fascism, because it has long been on the financial and personnel "suction" among the same Western colleagues ...

Why does the West need it? And the dictatorship can more clearly and unquestioningly accomplish its tasks. Well, at least that’s how it seems to the West. It is easier to maintain a dictatorship, and it is easier to “perplex”: to direct against the “main enemy” - Russia, wanting to draw her into the war in Donbass and then weaken it in every way. Everything is very simple and political technology.

Only one thing is bad: a neo-Nazi, racially correct dictatorship in a multinational Ukraine that is already engulfed in civil war, is a neo-Nazi, full-fledged, full-scale, absolutely “grasped” in all aspects - this is its inevitable collapse in the international arena. As an independent state of collapse. Not now, so in the future. No, dictatorship, as shown by the historical experience of the same Latin America, can exist for 20 and even for 30 years. But then the country is still reborn in some form of democracy. Ukraine may not have such a chance. It simply can not withstand the trials of the current civil war, break up into pieces and cease to exist as a territorially holistic entity ...

... And I’m not even talking about how people will have to live under dictatorship. Mobilized to perform tasks not of his country, but of the “uncle-sponsor”. Cuts in social benefits, unemployment, destruction of industrial potential, inflation, rising prices for everything, after all, turning off hot water and electricity “for the sake of ATO victory” and “repelling the Russian aggressor” are, as they say, only flowers. “Berries” do not want to be represented. These are wolf berries ...

        Synopsis: the enemy is in a panic, there is no connection with Azov and Dnepr, reinforcements are coming to Ilovaisk - fighters of the Donetsk Berkut and Oplot with armored vehicles | Russian spring
        Morning report from the fronts from the militia Prokhorov, 20.08.14/10/40 XNUMX:XNUMX (Moscow time)

        “In Ilovaisk.

        The fights didn’t stop at night - Ukrainians got lost in an unfamiliar city, there were numerous cases of “friendly fire” (“friendly fire”), even Donbass could not completely escape. Motorola fighters covered them all with mortars. Those who still went to the southern and eastern outskirts of the city were treated with Grads.
        Ukrainians are now in a panic about the approach to the city of reinforcements of militias - 5 tanks and 150 soldiers of the Oplot and the Donetsk Golden Eagle.
        There is no connection with Azov and the Dnieper (cartel battalions), where they are and whether they are alive is unknown.
        Well, still from myself - Ukrainians, after the attack of their border guard in the village. Alekseevsky (occupied Belovodsky district of the LPR) began a special operation in this border region. Now in the area of ​​n. Settlement go cleansing and fighting.
        In Pervomaisk and Torez - quietly. Looks like ukrov really has no reserves.

      This is just the beginning. Continuation will follow after the return from the anti-terrorist operation zone of the undead junta soldiers to the hungry and cold Ukraine. Even the country of the Soviets in the revolutionary epics had such a term "man with a gun." When in the First World War the soldiers from the front returned to Petrograd, everyone knows what happened next. However (cut) stupid people from the Supreme Rada do not read history textbooks. They will be surprised. Those who do not have time to escape are also very upset.

Americans love to work in different directions, wherever it goes. By the way, a journalist who was in Kiev in the midst of this orgy, even then said: Yarosh is a very dark horse, he must be really feared, he is not a clown like Klitschko and the others. Honestly, they didn’t attach much importance either, but here it’s easy to bend the president?!?!

    But you are in vain, most of the officers of the Red Army also served in the Tsar’s, and the repressions concerned only those who swore allegiance to Kolchak and other impostors, because The tsar abdicated that the Bolsheviks were the only more or less legal authority, and the tsarist security forces for the most part joined the ranks of the Red Army .. In Ukraine, Yanukovych did not renounce anything, and in essence the army betrayed its people by swearing allegiance to the junta ..

    Hitler's state was also fed in pursuit of the main goal: to create a battering ram for an attack on Russia. And then, when both states weaken, intervene and reap the benefits, like scavengers. Then Russia broke the plans of the USA and England. Now 2 try. But they will not succeed for many reasons. And one of them - Ukrainians are not Germans, they have a different mentality, a different attitude to life. And in general, they are Russians who were told that they were Ukrainians (with the exception of a small part of the population of the western regions).

    Most likely, the Pravosek and other Nazis are now playing the role of "watching" Washington for the Ukrainian elite set by it. If the government and parliament withdraw from subordination on a number of fundamental issues (for example, relations with Russia), the order will be quickly given to the next Maidan. Therefore, sooner or later we will see a new "Night of the Long Knives", when the strengthened regime will try to quickly destroy this husk. Yes, they are already trying to shoot them as much as possible in the Donbass.
