“I have certain agents in the Kiev community that organize such rallies. I can tell you that if there are willing customers, we can gather 50 thousand people in the center of Kyiv. Both from Kyiv, the region, and bring from all over Ukraine. These are ordinary people, there is a network, a pyramid that is assembled to order,” admitted the adviser to the chief Ukrainian policeman.
In January 2014, soon after the assassination attempt, Euromaidan activist Tatyana Chernovol (now elected to the Verkhovna Rada) stated in an interview with Ukrayinska Pravda that one day of standing on the Maidan costs the organizers 70 thousand dollars. “Maidan is paid for at personal expense. I was told that it costs 70 thousand dollars daily. Of course, there are donations, but donations do not cover all costs,” she said.
As is known, as a result of Euromaidan, the regime of Viktor Yanukovych was overthrown, and a number of other Ukrainian oligarchs came to power.
