The Rada admitted that pro-Russian people live throughout Ukraine
The division of the population of Ukraine into “Westerners” and “South-Easters” was invented by the political strategists of the fugitive President Viktor Yanukovych and his Party of Regions; in fact, adequate Ukrainians live throughout the country.
Ukrainian opposition politician and Verkhovna Rada deputy Yevhen Murayev stated this on the air of the Capital internet channel, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
According to the deputy, the concept of “southeast” adopted in Ukraine and the “pro-Russian” attitude attributed to it are erroneous - there are people with the same mentality in the west and in the center of the country.
“I think this is a very narrow concept. There are people with a certain value system who live throughout Ukraine. And this division: southeast, western Ukraine, central part is a political technology technique in order to divide and conquer. Since 2004, financial and industrial groups have been actively parasitizing on this, deceiving citizens and pursuing their business interests in power,” said Muraev.
Earlier, the Verkhovna Rada accused Muraev of allegedly receiving money from the Russian FSB to “destroy the consciousness of Ukrainians.”
As Ridus reported , former Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko stated that the residents of southeastern Ukraine remind him of the population of Nazi Germany.
The Rada acknowledged that pro-Russian people live throughout Ukraine.
