The case of “Kremlin agents”: Turchynov is preparing mass repressions
In the near future, mass repressions by security forces against political experts and journalists may begin in Kyiv.
They like to call the Ukrainian regime fascist, but now there are parallels not with Hitler’s Germany, but with the times of Stalin’s repressions - with their “thematic” cases of doctors, sociologists, etc. This is decommunization...
Potential victims are temporarily saved only by the general lack of professionalism of the SBU. As in the joke: “Like the country, so are the repressions.” The Ukrainian “witches’ hammer” is still hitting hard, but it is hitting the most vulnerable.

As often happens, in Kyiv there was selfish interest at first. In light of the talk about possible early elections, the leadership of the Popular Front party was surprised to discover that its rating tends to a statistical error (1,7%). The question arose about the justification of paying substantial fees to full-time political strategists and PR people. They desperately resist.
The line of defense chosen was simple and traditional for modern Ukraine - blaming “Kremlin agents” for everything. By the end of June, the party leader and Secretary of the Security Council of Ukraine, Alexander Turchynov, was convinced that the reason for the failure of the “front-line soldiers” was not the low quality of white PR, but the dominance of black PR, which was allegedly paid from Moscow.
This was the start of the “case of political scientists,” which should intimidate the last Kyiv experts who dare not fully agree with the ideological guidelines of the ruling junta.
As PolitNavigator learned, in recent weeks some “PR girls” have been calling and writing to experts in Kyiv, luring them with high fees. Political scientists were asked to write blogs in a certain paradigm for money. Everyone who was contacted by the “operatives” responded with a categorical refusal. Fortunately, as often happens in Kyiv, there was a leak the day before, and all experts were warned.
Today's arrest of Zhytomyr journalist Vasily Muravitsky, the persecution of the editor of the opposition publication "Strana" Igor Guzhva - all these cases also fall into the outline of a new campaign to find undesirables.
The Ukrainian special services will not limit themselves to two victims. In a month, the vacation time will end, and new provocations and absurd accusations will follow. It is likely that temniks about exposing the criminal group of “Kremlin agents” have already been sent to pro-government TV channels.
