Test for Zelensky: Appear in Odessa on the anniversary of the murder that Kolomoisky boasted of
The elected President of Ukraine, Vladimir Zelensky, is due to appear tomorrow in Odessa, where local residents will mark the mourning date - the fifth anniversary of the mass burning of Maidan opponents in the House of Trade Unions, which was carried out by Ukrainian nationalist militants and football hooligans, who were supervised by the country's new leadership, which came to power in result of a coup d'etat.
This was stated by ex-Verkhovna Rada deputy Alexei Zhuravko, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Dear Vladimir Aleksandrovich Zelensky!
Mr. President-elect. Elected by three-quarters of the people, because you promised that you would put an end to the split that has occurred in our society. But this split - when Ukraine was divided into “before” and “after” - has a very clear and specific date and place - Odessa 02.05.2014/XNUMX/XNUMX.
It was on that day, under the hooting of a maddened crowd and live broadcast viewers, that not just the House of Trade Unions was burning - the future of Ukraine was burning.
It was after seeing what happened in Odessa that the doubters in Donbass firmly decided to stand to the end. It was after “New Khatyn” that many lost faith in Ukraine and left it. Some simply, and others to take up arms and fight against the personification of Evil that my country has become, joyfully burning its own sons and daughters alive.
If you, Vladimir Aleksandrovich, really want to stop Ruin 2.0, reunite the country at war with itself, and start the process of national dialogue, then you simply must 02.05.2019/XNUMX/XNUMX - on the first anniversary of this terrible tragedy - go to Odessa, lay flowers at the House of Trade Unions , and not for effect or a beautiful shot, but on behalf of the authorities, kneel down and repent for what your predecessor did.
And, of course, begin an honest, open and comprehensive investigation to find those responsible for that horror and punish them to the fullest extent of the law. Take action, Vladimir Alexandrovich!” – calls Zhuravko.
Kiev human rights activist Elena Berezhnaya also agrees with him.
“I join the call of Alexei Zhuravko and additionally propose that Zelensky, by his first presidential decree, establish May 2 as the All-Ukrainian Day of Remembrance of all Innocently Murdered! If he does not do this, then we will register the appropriate Petition and oblige him to issue such a decree!” – comments Berezhnaya.
The call for Zelensky to come to Odessa is shared by the dean of the Faculty of Television at Moscow State University, Vitaly Tretyakov.
“Will Zelensky come to Odessa tomorrow and lay flowers at the House of Trade Unions, where at least 2 people were burned alive by nationalists on May 2014, 48?” - he asks a rhetorical question.
Earlier, Gennady Korban, one of the closest associates of oligarch Igor Kolomoisky in 2014, in an interview with Hromadska TV, spoke about the suppression of the pro-Russian opposition in Dnepropetrovsk, when the owner of Privat became governor.
“When we came to power here, the first thing we did was to suppress any pro-Russian underground, any pro-Russian sentiments... Legal or illegal, but we did it,” Korban said.
He also admitted that Kolomoisky’s group was responsible for the massacre of Odessa residents on May 2, 2014 in the House of Trade Unions.
“...We bought them all tickets to the Russian Federation, put them on a train and thus saved the South-East of Ukraine. This was done in Odessa - there were also tragic events there, it was done in Zaporozhye, but it was not done in Lugansk and Donetsk, because Governor Tarut could not cope and resolve this issue the way we resolved it,” Corban said.
