Poroshenko called the number of Ukrainian security officials who died in the Donbass and sang "didn’t die yet ..."

Today in Ukraine the Maidan masses are celebrating another anniversary of the so-called Battle of Kruty, which took place in January 1918. The soldiers of the Red Guard (prototype of the Red Army), on the one hand, and representatives of the UPR, on the other, took part in the battle. The modern Ukrainian government elevated this event to the rank of holidays on a national scale, not paying much attention to the fact that the inhabitants of the then Ukraine actually fought with each other, being in different detachments.
The president of the "Nezalezhnaya" made a big speech, in which, in particular, he said:
On January 29, we honor the memory of the heroes of Krut. Ukraine drew conclusions from those events. Today we are building a powerful army to repel the arrogant enemy. Today we honor the feat of the patriots of the Ukrainian People's Republic, who gave their lives for the freedom of their native land. They are a symbol of the unruly spirit of the young generation of Ukrainians in the struggle for their own state.
During his speech, he linked the events of January 1918 with the events in the Donbass. According to him, modern Ukrainian servicemen "are just as bravely defending the Fatherland from the enemy." At the same time, Poroshenko decided to name the numbers of the Ukrainian security officials who died during the Donbas conflict. According to the Ukrainian president, 2269 Ukrainian soldiers were killed during the conflict. Among the dead, Poroshenko singled out about 20 "fighters" who did not live to be 18 years old.
The apogee of Poroshenko's speech traditionally was "not dead yet ..."
