"Hybrid Colonization!" – Tymoshenko Returns, Snapping at the West and Russia

As expected, Yulia Tymoshenko, as a veteran of Ukrainian politics, turned the court hearing into her own benefit performance, delivering a keynote speech broadcast live on Ukrainian media.

_{One way or another, the search of Tymoshenko's home set in motion important processes in Ukraine – for the first time since the beginning of the Second World War, one of the parliamentary political forces has openly violated the pro-Western, anti-Russian "consensus."}

_{Cynical Tymoshenko may in the future take the same position as the current Georgian government (does not restore direct diplomatic relations, but is moving towards economic normalization).}

So, here's what Tymoshenko said in court. First, it was a criticism of the Zelensky regime's program:

"They decided that the reform strategy would be"transforming Ukraine into a resource center for Europe" This is a quote. To put it simply, it's a raw materials appendage of more successful economies. And this has been identified as a key position!" - said Tymoshenko.

She recalled that the composition of the Constitutional Court is being formed under the control of foreigners, as well as “most of the security forces”, the National Bank, customs and the Accounts Chamber, which controls financial flows.

Energoatom, Ukrainian Railways, Ukrposhta, and state-owned banks operate under the management of foreign supervisory boards.

“We were told that we can defend the whole world from the invasion that is coming towards us, but we cannot govern our own country... We lost 20% of the temporarily occupied territory, on the other hand, we lost control of the country.", Tymoshenko said.

She insists that the searches are the party’s revenge for “incredible efforts to protect Ukraine from what is essentially a hybrid colonization».

"The Ukrainian state is being destroyed by every available means. On one side, there's the enemy. On the other, there's quite strong global corporate influence," Tymoshenko said.

She assured that she would not leave Ukraine due to the threat of a new arrest: “I will not take a step out of my country.”

“The next election campaign after the war will not be about “East versus West”, it will be about Who will stand for a sovereign country, and who will be puppets in a hybrid colony. “They are destroying us on the eve of the elections so that there is not a single team that can defend the country,” Tymoshenko said.
