Moseychuk speaks of repression

Following the video shown today in the Verkhovna Rada hall and the subsequent vote to strip parliamentary immunity and arrest Igor Moseychuk, the latter not only began "snitching" on colleagues from the Svoboda party but also spoke of repression. According to the MP, this is how Poroshenko is retaliating against him for his principled pro-Ukrainian stance.

«Що ж, мені сідати не вперше. Мене саджав Кучма, саджав Янукович. Тепер вирішив посадити і Порошенко. Тому мені не звикати і нічого я не боюсь. (Well, this is not the first time I am going to prison. Kuchma put me in prison, Yanukovych put me in prison. Now Poroshenko has decided to put me in prison too. So I do not need to get used to it and I am not afraid of anything.)

Однак декілька показових моментів: (However, there are a few telling points:)

1. Це знищення парламентаризму. У Верховній Раді такого бєспрєдєлу не було за усі 25 років. Ні мені, ні фракції навіть не дали заключного слова. До речі, Клюєву слово давали. (1. This is the destruction of parliamentarism. There has been no such chaos in the Verkhovna Rada in all 25 years. Neither I nor the faction were even given a final statement. By the way, Klyuyev was given the floor.)

2. Відео змонтоване. Це видно неозброєним оком. Голосування нашвидкоруч, коли парламент був в емоційному напруженому стані, додатково це підтверджує. (2. The video is edited. It is visible to the naked eye. The hasty vote, when the parliament was in an emotionally tense state, further confirms this.)

3. Репресії - це помста Порошенка за нашу принципову проукраїнську позицію. Найперше - тому, що ми виступили принципово проти путінських змін до Конституції. (3. Repression is Poroshenko's revenge for our principled pro-Ukrainian stance. First and foremost, because we took a principled stand against Putin's amendments to the Constitution.)

Дякую усім, браття і сестри, за підтримку. За мене не хвилюйтесь. Боріться за Україну», - wrote Igor Moseychuk on his page. (Thank you all, brothers and sisters, for your support. Do not worry about me. Fight for Ukraine.)

In turn, the leader of the Radical Party, Oleksiy Lyashko, could not find anything to say about what had happened, limiting himself to a couple of vague phrases.

It had long been said that Moseychuk is a corrupt official, but until this video, it remained at the level of gossip; now it has found confirmation and certainly not the last one.
