Maidan activists were afraid of public interrogation at the trial against Yanukovych
The leaders of the coup d'etat in Ukraine in 2013-14 - Arseniy Yatsenyuk, Andrey Parubiy, Alexander Turchynov and other representatives of the current leadership in the court against Viktor Yanukovych will be interrogated without public broadcast. About it in an interview with RBC-Ukraine said the chief military prosecutor of Ukraine Anatoly Matios.

“The only thing I will say is about the list of witnesses voiced by prosecutors. Witnesses will be questioned in open court, but without public broadcast, since, according to all codes, a witness cannot listen to the testimony of another witness,” the prosecutor said.
It is worth noting that the decision to make the trial public is made only by the court, in this case the Obolonsky Court of Kyiv. However, Chief Military Prosecutor Matios has already determined in what mode high-ranking witnesses will be heard.
In turn, in a recent address to the Ukrainians, Yanukovych said that he was ready to personally interrogate Poroshenko, Turchynov, Yatsenyuk, Lutsenko, Parubiy and other organizers of the coup; he already had questions for them.
It is also worth noting that only Yanukovych and the ex-commander of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, General Stanislav Shulyak, gave public testimony during the video interrogation in the Berkut case.
