Frequent shots in Kyiv

In Kyiv, a former deputy of the Verkhovna Rada from the Party of Regions and a journalist who criticized Euromaidan was killed in Kiev per day.

On the evening of April 15, the former deputy of the Verkhovna Rada from the Party of Regions Oleg Kalashnikov, the main organizer of mass actions in support of the party, was killed in Kyiv. And on the afternoon of April 16 in the Ukrainian capital, the journalist Olesya Buzin was shot down by journalist, who considered the events of February 2014 on the Maidan "a coup on the Maidan." President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko demanded that the law enforcement agencies of the “operational and transparent” investigation of these high -profile crimes. The murder of Olesya Buzina was “political” by the Russian President Vladimir Putin during the direct line, and in Kyiv, meanwhile, they do not exclude that both of these killings are part of the Kremlin plan to discredit Ukraine in the international arena.

Oleg Kalashnikov was killed by several shots near his house on Pravda Avenue in Kyiv. A criminal case has been opened, and the investigation is considering several versions of this murder, said the adviser to the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the deputy of the Verkhovna Rada Anton Gerashchenko:

“The fact that the murder is deliberate and registered is most likely obvious. In such cases, all versions are considered, starting from some family relations, debts, etc. But I believe that the main version should be Kalashnikov’s participation in the organization and financing of Antimaydan in the Mariinsky Park near the Verkhovna Rada. I think that he could have known a lot of development and recently, and recently, they had been developing relative to Kalashnikov and recently Those who were next to him.

It is the Kremlin that promotes the propaganda campaign for political terror in Ukraine, and this requires evidence, facts are needed. These facts are now artificially doing

According to the Kiev newspaper Vesti , shortly before the death of Kalashnikov, who headed the All-Russian Union of Ukraine, was negotiating with a number of opposition politicians on the creation of a military-patriotic movement alternative to submissible organizations.

Oleg Kalashnikov was a deputy of the Verkhovna Rada from the Party of Regions in 2006-2007. His deputy was connected with a loud scandal when, in the summer of 2006, he attacked the television journalists of the STB channel, which shot a report on a rally of “regionals”. It was after this incident that Kalashikov became the main enemy of Ukrainian journalists, ”said Dmitry GNAP: one of the founders of the Gromadsky television tank (“ public television ”):

“Oleg Kalashnikov was always an enemy of the press, and he never hid it, he even flaunted it even to some extent when he treated journalists in a hammone. The deceased, but the negative attitude towards him is also connected with his Ham manner of communication and his involvement in the anti-Maydan, which he directly organized during the revolution of many journalists. The injuries and in every possible way violated the right of journalists to the profession of these participants in Anti -Maidan.

In less than a day after the murder of Oleg Kalashnikov, as the scandalously famous journalist Oles Buzin died. He was shot on Degtyarevskaya Street in Kyiv. The investigation does not exclude that the same killers can stand behind these two murders. Eyewitnesses say that they shot a car with a car with Latvian or Belarusian numbers. Experts have long been talking about the existence of different plans of the Russian authorities to destabilize the situation in Ukraine. The murder of Ukrainian oppositionists may be one of the Kremlin plans, suggests the head of the Penta Political Research Center Vladimir Fesenko :

“This can and should be one of the leading versions for one simple reason. The fact is that it is the Kremlin that promotes the propaganda campaign for political terror in Ukraine, and this requires evidence, the facts are needed. These facts are now artificially and do it. This is, of course, hip, assumption, law enforcement agencies should figure out who is behind these killings, who committed them. For these purposes, some ultra-rationalist groups could be used, for example, that Russia is not directly, but through some people, they can affect the actions of individual groups of the right sector, a number of other nationalist formations, organizing provocations both during the Maidan and after the Maidan. Most likely, this is made by the hands of either local crime or representatives of ultra -rationalist groups, but the Russia will use these murders objectively and probably in its propaganda to justify its accusations in political terror in Ukraine. They were not prominent figures of the opposition movement, as you know, in the last election, the Verkhovna Rada was running for one of the single-mandate districts of Kyiv, but therefore there is no need to talk about some popularity. The context of political terror in Ukraine, it means that the version of the Moscow trace seems very likely. ”

After the change of power in Ukraine, Oles Buzin was a frequent guest on the air of Russian television channels, where he criticized the current Ukrainian authorities. In early March of this year, the journalist with a scandal quit the chief editor of the newspaper “Today”, which he took only two months. Buzina claimed that he had left the newspaper oligarch Rinat Akhmetov due to censorship, and his colleagues said that the real reason was the inability to find a common language with the team.

Russian President Vladimir Putin called the execution of Olesya Buzina "political", saying that Ukraine is already a series of similar killings that no one is investigating. "

The murder of Kalashnikov, then the murder of Buzina, all this, of course, is the result of the processes taking place in the country, and the authorities did nothing to stop these processes

In recent months, at least seven mysterious deaths of the former “regionals” have been recorded in the country. All of them are qualified by the investigation as suicide. In particular, under the Zaporozhye, a former Zaporizhzhya governor Alexander Peklushenko was found in the neck with a gunshot wound. The scores of life in the Kiev region and in the capital had two ex-deputy of the Verkhovna Rada from the Party of Regions Stanislav Melnik and Mikhail Chechetov . Says the director of the Institute of Ukrainian Politics Kost Bondarenko:

“Indeed, there were a lot of mysterious murders in Ukraine, as well as other forms of pressure and terror that are not investigated or their investigation is delayed. But at the same time, I think that not politicians, namely law enforcement agencies should draw conclusions or put an end to a particular case. And I absolutely agree with those who today say that the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine should resign after the tragedies that have occurred, because the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine, because The Minister Avakov is a person who cannot control the situation in the country and is engaged in politics than the safety of citizens. The authorities taking place in the country, and did nothing to stop these processes, and then intolerance is cultivated, and then there is a witch hunt, hanging labels, the search for political enemies, the appointment of extreme in a particular situation and, as a result, people die, ”said the director of the Ukrainian politics, Bondarenko.
