Yulia Tymoshenko’s attempt to “ride” the nationalist agenda, which was initially exploited by Petro Poroshenko’s headquarters, led to the fact that the rating of the “gas princess” stopped growing due to the narrowing of the electoral base, and Poroshenko, on the contrary, began to close the gap with his rival.
Political scientist Sergei Belashko stated this on the NASH TV channel, the PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Petro Poroshenko’s rating after all this intense two-month “tomosobesie” reached the level of 15 percent. Tymoshenko has 18 percent, despite the fact that her rating is stagnating, and Bankova managed to impose her information agenda on her,” the expert noted.
“Tymoshenko, like a parrot, is forced to repeat after Bankova all these theses about Tomos, about the army-mov-faith, about the hero Mikhail Antonovich Denisenko, and so on.
We have not heard a single message from her. We remember that she had some kind of “New Deal”, and “blockchain”, and some kind of youth impulses, and so on.
Now there is none of this. Now she actually floats in this mainstream, and Poroshenko’s rating is growing. And with all this, he could not reach Tymoshenko, who was driven into this information mainstream,” Belashko noted.
