The commander of a platoon of grenade launchers of the 93rd brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, a former Maidan activist, Valery Matveychuk (pictured) stated this in an interview with Kraina magazine.
“We need a dictatorship for two or three years. Ban on sales parties and nationalization of key raw materials and strategic enterprises. We need to change the wage system. Lift the moratorium on the death penalty for grand theft and corruption. And in five to seven years the economy will start working,” says the publication’s interlocutor.
When the publication’s journalist noted that Maidan still stood for democracy, not dictatorship, the platoon commander replied: “Do you see an honest party? The oligarchs are in power.”
The Ukrainian serviceman also told how, in his opinion, Yanukovych differs from Poroshenko.
“The first one spoke one language with problems, and the second one spoke several languages fluently. I don't see any difference anymore. Yanukovych took it unceremoniously. Now everything is being done more subtly. There are three stages in life: money, power and fame. Poroshenko has the first one. Now he's stuck in the second stage, and it's killing him. Yanukovych could have been miscalculated. Poroshenko is smarter. And this is more dangerous for the country,” Matveychuk comes to the conclusion.
