The fact that the Eurovision Song Contest has long been a purely political phenomenon, and is related to culture, even mass culture, only tangentially, is no secret even for people who are poorly familiar with the subject. But even the usual politicization of Eurovision has its own nuances. It’s one thing – and this really won’t surprise anyone – when viewers from different countries...
There was no revolution in Ukraine in 2014: hucksters simply took the place of the swindler who betrayed the country. People's Deputy of Ukraine, former member of the Party of Regions Yevgeny Balitsky stated this on air on the ZIK TV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports. “In the classical version, revolution implies a change of system. The system has not changed (as a result of the Maidan - editor's note): some hucksters have changed with...
For representatives of the ruling regime in Ukraine, ousted President Viktor Yanukovych is, first of all, a dangerous witness and owner of compromising evidence about behind-the-scenes bargaining during the Euromaidan. The former head of the Ukrainian Interpol bureau, ex-People's Deputy Kirill Kulikov said this on the NewsOne TV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports. “Viktor Fedorovich Yanukovych is not a criminal for them, but a witness for them...
In Ukraine, no one believes in punishing those responsible for the murders at Euromaidan. This opinion was expressed on the NewsOne TV channel by Kiev journalist Svetlana Kryukova, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports. “If the mothers of those killed on the Maidan, on the other hand, don’t believe in this (the investigation into the murders - editor’s note), then what can we say about the mothers of Berkut soldiers... It’s very difficult for me to watch...
The true story of the murders at Euromaidan will never be revealed - representatives of both the current and past authorities are involved in the crimes. Dnepropetrovsk blogger Max Buzhansky stated this on air on the ZIK TV channel, the PolitNavigator correspondent reports. “It is not beneficial for anyone to bring this (the case of the murders on the Maidan - editor's note) to an end. To the people who came as a result of the Maidan...
Maidan was not at all a peaceful rally of ordinary citizens - trained stormtroopers beat and shot well-equipped and trained fighters of the Berkut special forces. The lawyer of the ex-Berkut members, Alexander Goroshinsky, stated this on air on the ZIK TV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports. “How many of you know that during the so-called “beating of students” (November 29-30, 2014 – editor’s note) bodily injuries...
The further the day of the dramatic events of February 26, 2014 goes into the past, the more ugly polyps and shells Poroshenko’s propagandists sculpt onto it. In two days, Ukraine is preparing to mark the fifth anniversary of the “Day of Crimean Resistance to Russian Occupation, which changed the course of history.” On this day, according to the Bandera-Majlis political leaders, 12 thousand Crimeans, including Crimean Tatars, in one...
The story of the participants in the national Eurovision selection from Ukraine, sisters Anna and Maria Opanasyuk, whom the self-appointed “color of the Ukrainian nation” is now happily trampling on social networks and the media, is both sad and instructive. Of course, it’s a pity for the daughters of the Crimean ex-minister themselves. They, like Ostap Bender, completely unwillingly and literally “fell under the horse” of media propaganda, becoming...
