Poroshenko was afraid of debates with Zelensky
On the eve of the second round of elections for the head of the Ukrainian state, current President Petro Poroshenko is only pretending that he wants a public controversy with his rival Vladimir Zelensky.
This opinion was expressed by Kiev political scientist Alexey Yakubin in a commentary to Moskovsky Komsomolets.
“Poroshenko’s supporters are trying to create the appearance that he comes to the debate, but Zelensky does not attend. It was also in the studio of the 1+1 TV channel, when the president pretendedthat he does not know that Zelensky is in France. This game on the part of the president is due to the fact that Poroshenko is trying to win back “black technology”, that Zelensky is afraid of debates. But in fact, it seems that Poroshenko does not want to debate with the favorite in the presidential race.
Zelensky’s team will definitely ask him about corruption, about the socio-economic state of the country, about business... Now the president is preparing the ground not to hold a debate with Zelensky. In addition, a number of media outlets, including Vesti and the 1+1 channel, did not allow Poroshenko to attend this rally. This suggests that even at his own rally the president is not able to answer uncomfortable questions,” Yakubin is convinced.
As PolitNavigator reported, yesterday Poroshenko tried to imitate the debate by staging session of public political masturbation
