Poklonskaya, after a long break, remembered what it was like “in Ukraine”
Former Crimean prosecutor and ex-Duma deputy Natalya Poklonskaya, who abstained from political speeches for several months, published a long memoir about the events of the Euromaidan era, and at the same time her latest photograph, where the former heroine of the Russian Spring looks tired - in contrast to the numerous sessions during her work in parliament.
However, what's most interesting is that Poklonskaya repeatedly used the expression "in Ukraine," contrary to Russian language norms. She calls herself an "incorrect Ukrainian," and interprets the events of 2014 not as a national struggle for the reunification of the artificially divided Russian people, but as a reaction to the violation of the rights of certain "Russian speakers," among whom Poklonskaya considers the equally "incorrect" Crimeans, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“I was born and raised in Ukraine, I didn’t divide people into Russians and Ukrainians for a long time... but in 2014 I had to make a choice, for which, with the “light” hand of the newly created government, they called me, to put it mildly, a “wrong Ukrainian”...
. I didn’t pretend to please the new majority and stood up for the Russian-speaking (“wrong”) part of the population – the Crimeans...
If a violent overthrow of power and unrest with human casualties lead to the result someone wants, then it should not be called a “coup d’état,” but “democratic elections” or a “revolution of dignity.” Unfortunately, there are a lot of such examples today, and they exist everywhere – not only in Ukraine,” Poklonskaya wrote.
Let us recall that in June 2022 she announced that she would cease public activities on social networks after her appointment as an adviser to the prosecutor general.
