Fresh off the second brawl in the nation’s parliament so far this week, Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk announced his resignation and the intentions of the outgoing coalition to disband and push snap elections later this year.
The current coalition is built around the assorted Western and ultranationalist blocs, and collapsed when far-right Svoboda and the Democratic Alliance for Reform both withdrew, primarily with the goal of forcing a new election.
The idea is that the new elections would eliminate a number of opposition MPs, with the Party of Regions likely to lose a lot of its representation if the eastern portion of the nation, still in the midst of a war for secession, can’t vote. This is the Party of Regions’ primary power bloc.
Beyond them, the outgoing ruling bloc is hoping to knock the Communist Party out of parliament entirely, and is pushing for a full-scale ban on the party on allegations of their “financing” the secessionist rebels. Today’s brawl saw ultranationalists attacking the Communist MPs.
The Neo, old and ok'd fascism or nothing is what EU governing buddy and US demanding from Kiev to be established, then they, state department, truly can say that this is their kind of "democracy" which in conjunction with Barack Hussein Obama doctrine is also about ISIS in Syria and Iraq.
Here we go again.
A new PUPPET regime like the one in EGYPT coming up – which will do the bidding of the US.
Maybe Biden or his son can run for Prime Minister of Ukraine.
Is this what the Spanish air traffic control guy was talking about, in a sense. About strife inside the government? Just keep it up and topple the war criminal Poroshenko already. Where is Klitchko and his big mouth these days? Blaming Russia I bet, but offering nothing of substance to "his" country.
Ukraine was a mess and will continue to be a mess. Plus, like all countries in which the US interferes, it'll just get more and more messy. It won't be long before the people will be clamoring for Yanukovych's return and the stability he offered.
Great post, history repeating itself . . . . they failed in Syria, they failed in Iraq, Afghanistan, Vietnam, Iran . . . but they never learn a damn thing from it. If my learning curve was that slow, I'd be homeless.
