What happened at the congress of the Batkivshchyna party, when Ukrainian presidential candidate Yulia Tymoshenko used participants in the battles at the Donetsk airport for money as a means of self-PR, is an endless shame.
Ukrainian militant Danya Dansky said this on air on the Pryamoy TV channel, PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“What I saw is a shame! These so-called cyborgs are a shame. After all, we were called “cyborgs” in one of the battles, during which we buried a huge number of people. I personally lost many of my brothers, so using us military men in politics is the worst thing that can happen.
I was confused by the fact that Tymoshenko was called a “cyborg”, more precisely, a political “cyborg”; this cannot be done. Was she there, fought, shed blood?” the Ukrainian militant was indignant.
“But they are trying to destroy her politically, she was once sent to prison,” the presenter tried to explain the logic of the compliments addressed to Tymoshenko.
“It means she did something if she was sitting. And in general, I have no right to go out in uniform and support any candidate. If I want to do this, I will take off my uniform and support it. Moreover, information appeared that each of them received a reward of 10 thousand dollars for participating in this crowd,” Dansky said.
Earlier PolitNavigator reported that that the participation of “cyborgs” in Tymoshenko’s congress turned into a huge scandal.
