Farion recalled how Lutsenko cowardly fled from the Maidan
Three years ago, on the night of February 19-20, when the most violent clashes with the Berkut took place on the Maidan, and there was a great threat of clearing the square, the current Prosecutor General Yuriy Lutsenko called on the protesters for armed struggle, but in the midst of the bloody events why I ended up not in Kyiv, but in Lvov.
Ex-Rada deputy, nationalist Irina Farion shared these memories on her blog.

“Pieces of memories of February 19, 2014. Half a day completely fell into oblivion. In the evening, as always, usually at 19.00, I had the honor of speaking on the Maidan in front of the holy protesters...
Near the stage I met with the Lutsenko family. Yuri asked me to let him speak to me. I didn't agree.
When I walked into the midst of people after my speech, I heard Lutsenko speak enthusiastically and call to arms... The Maidan roared in delight.
I stopped dead in my tracks and asked Koshulinsky ( Farion's party comrade, ed. ): "What is he doing? How can you give weapons to untrained people?" Ruslan remained silent.
In the morning during the executions, for some reason this man was not in Kyiv, but in Lvov,” Farion suspected something was wrong.
