Fascism in Ukraine

Sorry, I keep getting interrupted and can’t finish the post.

So, to continue, Ukraine’s president Yanukovich, who is one of Putin’s favorite puppets, has made a statement that fascists are now in power in Ukraine and he will be organizing a resistance movement.

For obvious reasons, the word “fascism” is a very charged one in Ukraine. Yanukovich has now apparently gone to Kharkov (my city which is right on the border with Russia) to organize “resistance to fascism.”

The main fear of progressive humanity both in Ukraine and abroad is that Putin will do what he did in Georgia and send in the troops. As we all know, the West stood passively by as Putin invaded Georgia. Chances are Putin will be allowed to do what he wants in Ukraine, too.

People keep asking why Yanukovich doesn’t seem eager to keep his promise to resign. My own belief – and I don’t have any sources to rely upon for this part of the post – is that Yanukovich wouldn’t be averse to resigning (and leaving the country). But his employer Putin needs him in Ukraine, and antagonizing Putin is very dangerous.

And by the way, several years ago I wrote on this blog that the Cold War was not over and the disbanding of the USSR was a short-term tactical maneuver. And guess who was right this entire time.

  1. Latest (on a crawl on Polish tv) is that Janukowycz is calling a summit of regional leaders to take control of the east. Could this be a prelude to partition?

    Supposedly Tymoszenko has also been released from prison and is on her way to the majdan…

    A few days ago there was a story of unscheduled flights leaving Kiev airport with the family of one of the rich crooks running the country headed toward which European country where he also maintains a residence (hint for others, it isn’t Russia).

    1. Eastern Ukraine and the coal regions of Donbass are in the hands of bandits from the 1990s. They will definitely want their own criminal state. And they know how to play the idiot Russophiles like a fiddle. Yanukovich originally got elected on the promise of making Russian the second state language and promoting close ties with Russia. Of course, he did nothing of the kind because he knows what’s good for him.
