Zelensky’s team prevents any attempts to tie in the conflict in Donbass with the 2014 coup, said People’s Council deputy Vladislav Berdichevsky.
“The fine for “inciting hatred” imposed on NEWSONE channel by the National Council for Television and Radio Broadcasting of Ukraine once again shows the lack of freedom of speech in Ukraine. Journalist Ruslan Kotsaba expressed his personal opinion in the authorial show that until there is no legal assessment of the 2014 events at the state level, until they recognize them a coup, the cause of the armed conflict in Donbass will not be eliminated. The channel got a $4.3 thousand fine for that.
After such a decision, no one doubts any longer that Zelensky and his team are keeping on Poroshenko’s policy. The population of Ukraine has already begun to realize that. The latest sociological studies published by the A. Razumkov Ukrainian Center for Economic and Political Studies prove that, it clearly shows a sharp decline in the level of confidence in all branches of the Ukrainian government. They expect of the new President peace in Donbass, economic recovery and improvement in the standard of living of ordinary Ukrainians. But they get populist statements, sabotage of the Minsk Agreements and preparation for the final sell-out of state assets, including land. If attempts to reveal the true causes of the conflict in Donbass are considered incitement of hatred in Ukraine, there is nothing to talk about with the Kiev power. And Zelensky, if he does not change his strategy radically, will face a crushing political defeat like Poroshenko in the last presidential election,” the deputy emphasized.
