Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko does not care about pre-election ratings; he believes that all problems will be solved by simply buying votes.
Crimean Maidan activist Elizaveta Bogutskaya, who fled to Ukraine, stated this on TV channel 4, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Don’t you think that if we raise gas prices now, on the eve of the presidential elections, this will seriously affect the president’s ratings? Why raise the price now?” the host asked the studio guest.
“It seems to me that Pyotr Alekseevich does not understand at all how this will affect his ratings. I think he doesn't care what his ratings are. He will turn on administrative resources and buy voters. Who can you buy? Only a population that is no longer enough, only slaves or such a limited population that there is nothing to buy food from them. You can buy them yourself. When people don’t have money, they can easily buy it,” Bogutskaya said.
As PolitNavigator reported, today during a speech in the Verkhovna Rada, Petro Poroshenko promised deputies victorious Ukrainian army with space forces.
