Ex-President Viktor Yushchenko made such a flattering remark about Oleg Lyashko’s Radical Party in a recent interview with the Kyiv magazine “New Time”.
“They intrigue me. This is one of the few political forces that correctly articulates key national problems,” Yushchenko said in an interview with the publication.
When asked whether Yushchenko does not consider this political force to be populist, he replied:
“They make correct diagnoses of the economic and social problems of our society, although I do not agree with them on everything, their proposals are largely advisable.”
Let us note that relations between Yushchenko and Lyashko were not always so warm. Here, for example, is a photo from 2009. Then-president Viktor Yushchenko, on the air of Savik Shuster’s talk show, exposes the criminal sins of the youth of then Yulia Tymoshenko’s ally and fierce critic of Yushchenko Oleg Lyashko, showing the materials of the criminal case against Lyashko.
But Oleg Lyashko reads out incriminating evidence against Viktor Yushchenko from the Verkhovna Rada podium.
