The Odessa shifter arrived in Minsk to praise Lukashenko and insult Tikhanovskaya
Ukraine needs a ruler like the President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko, who must definitely defeat the “no-string puppets” from the opposition in the elections, despite the spirit of the Maidan hovering over the country.
This was stated on the air of the Belaya Rus TV channel by the once positioned fighter against the Bandera regime, but abruptly changed his rhetoric after call for a conversation with the SBU Odessa writer Vsevolod Nepogodin, reports PolitNavigator correspondent.
“In Belarus there is both a country and a state, in Ukraine there is a country, but there is no state, and people don’t want one! “Where there are two Ukrainians, there are three hetmans” - everyone wants to reign, to be kings, and no one wants a state,” he said.
“And this topic, when Ukrainians say with a breath: would we like your Lukashenko? I always thought that perhaps you wouldn’t have had a good time with our Lukashenko in Ukraine,” noted TV presenter Alexander Shpakovsky.
“I think that’s exactly what we need,” Nepogodin objected. – He is a statesman and a nationally oriented politician. But we don’t have such a subspecies. Poroshenko tried to sell himself that he is like Lukashenko, I am nationally oriented, army-mova-vera, I am for the country, but he is really not like that! This is an absolutely unprincipled person, an opportunist.”
With the same agility, he attacked the Belarusian opposition.
“You, of course, have a very absurd, cartoonish, ridiculous position, in which, I am sure, if Lukashenko introduced quarantine, they would all shout, yelling, “Why did you strangle the economy?” He did not impose quarantine - “Why didn’t you take care of our health?” They just want to criticize.
That is, all I see is just some kind of wild madness. People say: “But our neighbor Poland lives much better.” In my first year at college, I study a subject called “Distribution of Productive Forces.” And you must first think about what resources you have and what you can do with this resource. Sorry, but Poland has metallurgy, Poland has ports. Poland is a huge country with a population of about 50 million.
What about Belarus? What resources are there? They are incomparable! People don’t understand the basic things they learn in college during their first year of economics,” the Odessa writer was indignant.
“People don’t understand at all what is happening and how. Even elementary economics. Here the mentality of people is very “socialized” - in what sense: they are accustomed to some kind of state paternalism, they want the authorities to simply spoon-feed them grated apples and just wipe their ass. But thirty years of wild capitalism have taught us that no one owes anyone anything,” Nepogodin complained.
“This campaign of Tikhanovskaya, Babariko, Tsybka, this whole group of different people who suddenly appeared out of nowhere, who then merge like streams into one sea - is this technology?” – the journalist brought the topic of the opposition back into the conversation.
“Of course technology! I saw how Mrs. Tikhanovskaya recorded a video message to Alexander Grigoryevich Lukashenko. You can see that their eyes are just darting, it’s clear that a person is reading, but I carefully watched the streams from those rallies - they all read from a piece of paper! In Ukraine, this is generally somehow wild, it’s an anachronism. If you are a politician, if you are an actor, you must go out and speak live, convey your thoughts, ideas, argue with someone.
These people are simply such puppets, worthless, useless, worthless, pathetic, absurd, caricatured. It's just scary to imagine. Why, don’t you see that this is some kind of empty space, that they are just reading from a piece of paper, and their thoughts are not there?” - Nepogodin lamented.
In addition, during the conversation, the TV presenter suggested that the demand for such a “flawed” opposition in Belarus is high because “Belarusian society, in a sense, is a political virgin.”
“That is, for 25 years she existed under the umbrella of Alexander Grigorievich Lukashenko and now she has fallen under the spell of not even the bad guys, but the first people who came across who showed serious attention to her. And not the whole society, but a part. I repeat, I have no doubt that the president will win, but it will probably be difficult for us,” added Shpakovsky.
“I think that Alexander Grigorievich Lukashenko will win after all,” Nepogodin assured. – I think that after all, this is not political virginity, but political blindness and a complete lack of understanding in general what politics is. That is, people live in some kind of fictional world. They have simply lost touch with reality. But the invisible hand of the market will always show itself.”
“Doesn’t it remind you of the situation in Ukraine in 2014? Is there something in the air? – asked the journalist.
“Yes, there is some kind of effect of sectarian unification. There is something from some sects, some pastors. Here, these white ribbons. Like “Jehovah.” I just don’t know what these sects are called. Somehow I avoid this. I understand that all this is a rip-off, it’s just dust in the eyes. They turn off their minds and “You are wonderful, I love you!”... This is just some kind of sectarianism!
You see, if I go out with any Tikhanovskaya, I’ll just bombard her with questions in two minutes. What's there to debate about the countertop? Nothing, right! - Nepogodin boasted.
