Followed by: Mourning declared in Ukraine
January 9 has been declared a day of mourning in Ukraine for the victims of the Ukraine International Airlines Boeing that crashed in Iran the day before. This was stated in a decree issued by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
Mourning was appointed only the next day after the disaster, which coincided with a new round of the crisis between the United States and Iran, which put the world on the brink of a new large-scale conflict.
It is interesting that in these conditions, the top leadership of Ukraine demonstrated a far from statist approach - officials were unable to give up their usual holidays abroad.
So, Vladimir Zelensky was vacationing in Oman. The leaders of the country's security bloc also found themselves at foreign resorts - the head of the SBU Ivan Bakanov was spotted in Courchevel, and the Minister of Internal Affairs Arsen Avakov published photographs from his villa in Italy on his blog.
“The head of the SBU in Courchevel, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, they say in Italy, the president and the supreme commander in chief - in general x... knows where he is now, x... knows where he was before and x... knows what he did there. They search the whole world, but they cannot find it. In general, guys, when I wrote about the loss of control six months ago, I didn’t mean it literally like that,” laments propagandist Arkady Babchenko, who fled to Israel.
