Nadezhda Savchenko - a secret weapon against Tymoshenko
The former heroine, deputy of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Nadezhda Savchenko, thrown behind bars by Petro Poroshenko, can provide a secret service to the current president in the election fight.
Moskovsky Komsomolets writes about this, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
The publication explains that if Savchenko is allowed to participate in the presidential elections, she could be used to take away votes from Yulia Tymoshenko and reduce her chances of getting into the second round.
Given the prisoner's ability to make loud statements from her cell, a nearby court might do her good by providing a platform for her speech.
“If the trial of Savchenko begins in the coming days, then this will be a good election campaign for her. Nadezhda has already adapted to loudly and specifically announce her political views and intentions during meetings. The object of her attacks is the current corrupt government, snickering officials from the Ministry of Defense who offend ordinary army men rotting in the trenches. These theses may find their audience... Tymoshenko is still demonstrating stability. However, the most radical part of her electorate can be grabbed by Nadezhda Savchenko, who headed Yulina’s Batkivshchyna election list four years ago,” the article says.
