The Poles besieged the Ukrainian Maidan activist: Why are your revolutions needed if the result is poverty?
Kiev political scientist Sergei Belashko ridiculed a recent interview with ex-member of the Verkhovna Rada nationalist Oles Donia, who did not find a place at the power trough after the Euromaidan. He complained that at one of the forums in Poland, no one could answer the question of what was the “victory” of the Ukrainian revolutions, if as a result of them, Ukrainians began to live only worse.

“I read an interview with Oles Doniy yesterday. We must give him credit - he characterizes the situation well, how everything happens. True, for some reason his activities only help to worsen this whole situation. But he diagnoses correctly.
The doctor diagnosed: sinusitis. And he began to pick his nose with a scalpel, to see what would happen there, whether it would cure him or not.
So, he told how at some forum in Poland everyone admired how well done the Ukrainians are, they have three revolutions there - “on granite”, then “orange”, then Euromaidan, all the revolutions won, they are moving along the path of democratization... That's all Doniy says in an interview. And then some old Polish man, one of the founders of Solidarity, who gave Walesa the wrenches, says:
“Friends, when your whole struggle for freedom began, in Poland the average salary was 30 dollars lower than in the Ukrainian SSR then, and now our average salary is three times higher. Who needs such revolutions, such revolutionaries and such victories?
Well, this topic was hushed up, they moved out, and they started again, “trawl-vali, freedom cannot be stopped.” But I remember this grandfather, I can’t find an answer for myself,” Belashko noted sarcastically.
