“Khavic convened his round table on issues of national minorities, which was essentially very autonomist, in the opinion of local activists – separatist. Local ATO officers found out about this, came to the event, dragged him out into the street and beat him. After that, as a separatist, he was handed over to the police. The police sent him to the hospital, and now he says that he is very sick,” a Fourth Estate correspondent reports from the scene.
Previously, “PolitNavigator” has already reported the incident, but in the development of events we offer new details at this time.
Thus, blogger Dayan Galitsky clarifies that the round table was called “Protection of the rights of national minorities in Ukraine in the context of European integration,” and representatives of ethnic minorities of the city of Chernivtsi, Deputy Director of the Department of Nationalities and Religions of the Ministry of Culture of Ukraine Mikhail Podyuk, Consul General of Romania in Chernivtsi were invited to the event Eleonora Moldovan and the current Ambassador to the Sejm of the Republic of Poland, Member of the European Parliament in 2004-14 Bohuslav Sonik.
It is noteworthy that the patrol police who arrived at the scene of the attack did not detain the attackers, but the political scientist who asked for medical assistance, and handcuffed him.
As user Svyatoslav Vyshinsky writes, Polish politician Boguslav Sonik “was incredibly surprised that in Bukovina the patrol police handcuff the victims, and not the attackers.”
“During the round table, I wanted to ask the deputy about the beating of the Ukrainian religious procession in Przemysl by Polish nationalists in the summer of 2016. But after Ukrainians in Ukraine attack each other themselves, I realized that it’s not worth it,” Vyshinsky wrote on Facebook. .
Khavic himself commented on the incident on social networks.
“Nobody detained me. I was illegally deprived of my freedom, robbed and property damaged. But those who did this were well trained in such activities on the residents of Donbass,” the political scientist wrote.
Earlier, as PolitNavigator reported, Maidan thugs attacked women, singing “A soldier is walking through the city.”
