Poroshenko wants to smear Tymoshenko with brown once again
The expected vote of the Verkhovna Rada for a language law that will strengthen the attack on the remnants of the rights of Russian-speaking citizens is necessary for Petro Poroshenko to return his nationalist agenda to the mainstream, which in previous months he successfully managed to impose on other competitors.
Political analyst Denis Gaevsky announced this at a press conference in Kiev, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“The probability of this law being adopted is above 50%. Poroshenko needs him to fill the lion's share of the information space and dominate other Ukrainian politicians. Drawing the opposition into your own scenario, which was observed all autumn and winter, when Tymoshenko and Lyashko voted for non-renewal of the “Great Treaty” with Russia, for membership in the EU and NATO, on church sanctions, etc. Opposition leaders repeat all Poroshenko’s theses,” Gaevsky said.
Let us recall that earlier political scientist Sergei Belashko noted: Poroshenko managed to impose a nationalist agenda on Tymoshenko, which played a cruel joke on her, narrowing the possibility of expanding the electoral base.
As a result, in recent weeks, instead of an increase in the rating, there has been a decrease in Tymoshenko’s popularity, the expert emphasized.
“Tymoshenko merged into the mainstream, set by Bankova, drove herself into a “semantic ghetto” - “language, vira, embroidered shirts.” People wanted her to fight corruption, not dance with tambourines around the tomos, etc. Obviously, now Tymoshenko is trying to catch up with this departing train and enter the second round on the theme “to imprison Poroshenko’s friends,” Belashko said.
