On the afternoon of April 16, Oles Buzina returned home from a run. As the investigation will later establish, at 13.20 near the house No. 58 on Degtyarevskaya Street, an unknown in the mask jumped out of the blue Ford Focus and fired several shots, after which he jumped into the car and rushed off in an unknown direction. Buzina died on the spot from the wounds and chest received. A few hours later, the Blue Ford with the Italian numbers BL810VW was found one and a half kilometers from the crime scene - on Eugen Potier Street, in the area of the medical university. And closer to the night, the police called two main versions of the murder. “Journalistic activity is the first and main, the other is the murder on the basis of personal hostility. The remaining versions will be considered as the information is received, ”Alexander Tereshchuk, head of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Kyiv, told reporters. And he added that the investigation already has seven witnesses of the crime.

However, in relation to Olesya, Buzina, these two versions could be combined into one - through a comma. He was a bright and unambiguous figure. The son of an officer of the 5th (“ideological”) department of the KGB of the Ukrainian SSR, great-grandson of the tsarist officer, Oles graduated from the Kiev State University named after Taras Shevchenko with a degree in Russian language and literature. His political views were frankly pro -Russian. Long before the Maidan, and even before Viktor Yanukovych’s victory in the presidential election, Buzina openly advocated the federalization of Ukraine. “The separatism of the southeast, Crimea, Transcarpathia or Galicia is a myth. Residents of these different regions are simply spontaneous federalists. I think in the future Ukraine will be a federation, like Germany, Russia, Switzerland or the USA. This will smooth out most of the contradictions in the country. It is not necessary to impose the Ukrainian language in Crimea, this harms the Ukrainian language and Ukraine. It will not work to build a Ukrainian empire as a collapsed Russian. Another time. In Europe, everything strives for cultural diversity, ”Buzina said in one of his interviews in 2009.
The statements of Olesya Buzin about the past and present Ukraine did not fit into any state ideologist - whoever was in power. He did not spare the saints for the national revival names. The writer called Taras Shevchenko an alcoholic: “Well, I drank Shevchenko, drank, he had nervous breakdowns - this is true!” Lesa Ukrainian and Olga Kobylyanskaya - lesbians: “Both experienced many novels with men, but did not neglect and purely female love ... He studied the originals of their intimate correspondence at the Institute of Ukrainian Literature. It is spicy written! It can be seen that the young ladies understood a lot about Lesbos. ” And the Maidan considered exclusively a coup: "The fact that this coup d'etat was the enormous fault of Yanukovych, who did not fulfill his duties as the president." By the way, Buzina once again announced in his last interview on April 13 of the Ukrainian radio station Radio Vesti.
Strange coincided with the death of the journalist and another Kyiv tragedy. On the evening of April 15, they found shotlerated ex-deputy from the Party of Regions Oleg Kalashnikov, shot down near their house. At one time, he collected rallies against Yulia Tymoshenko, he was also suspected of financing “Titusies” (sports guys who, under the guise of anti -Maidan participants, beat the ideological opponents of the Party of Regions and Journalists).
“These killings are either political or with a political background,” said the famous Ukrainian political scientist Vadim Karasev. After all, if in reprisal with Kalashnikov you can see a business, then in the case of the murder of Buzina, this is not discussed.
As usual, different versions are expressed, who benefits from the murder of Buzina and who could “order” it. According to one of them, a trace of Russian special services is visible in what happened. “Kalashnikov and Buzin. The obvious actions of the special services of the Russian Federation aimed at the destabilization of Ukraine and the creation of our country of the corresponding image in the world, ”wrote Vladimir Aryev, deputy of the Rada (Petra Poroshenko Bloc) and the vice-president of Pase on his Facebook page. Another Ukrainian parliamentarian, the head of the Freedom and Information Committee, Victoria Syumar, is shared by a similar opinion: “The parade of political murders is obviously not accidental. This is not just accounting, this is a special operation that will be used for political and information struggle, for destabilization, to “warm up” before May 9. ”
In Moscow, the death of a journalist really did not go unnoticed. A few minutes after it became known about her, Vladimir Putin, during a “direct line” with the Russians, stated that “this is not the first political murder in Ukraine.” In Kyiv, those who subtly noticed were immediately found: Petitz Yura Shevchuk Putin, they say, did not know, and the Buzina reacted instantly to the death of the Ukrainian Buzina.
Another version is the exact opposite: the Ukrainian authorities could act as the customer. According to the former first deputy head of the presidential administration, Andrei Portnov (now lives in Moscow), all responsibility lies with the President of Ukraine Petra Poroshenko: “It is time to admit that the political and moral responsibility for the massacres of the inhabitants of our country, the death and suicide of Ukrainian politicians and journalists are fully carried by one person. This is President Poroshenko - a cynical political scarecrow, which created an atmosphere of intolerance, hostility, poverty, total depression, lawlessness and stupidity in Ukraine. ”
A friend of Olesya Buzina, the head of the Multimedia-Invest Group media holding, Igor Guzhva, is inclined to the idea that domestic radicals can be behind the murder, which are overseas the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU): “In Latin American dictatorships that the current regime is more like, for example, this practice was widespread.”
The version of some avengers found its indirect confirmation the day after the murder. The e -mail of the famous Ukrainian political scientist Vladimir Fesenko came a letter from the Ukrainian rebel army (UPA), whose activities are prohibited in the Russian Federation. This “organization” took responsibility for the death of the “anti-Ukrainian scum”: Chechetova (Mikhail Chechetov, the former deputy head of the regions faction, jumped out of the 17th floor), Peklushenko (Alexander Peklushenko, the former head of the Zaporizhzhya regional state administration, shot himself in his own house), Melnik (Stanislav Melnik, a former people's deputy from the Party of Regions, Shooted), Kalashnikova, Buzins. It follows from the text of the letter that this series of deaths is by no means the final: “We are unfolding a merciless rebel struggle against the anti -Ukrainian regime of traitors and Moscow Kholuye and from that time we will speak with them only the language of weapons and until they are completely destroyed.”
Investigators of the Ministry of Internal Affairs seriously took this letter and began to look for the senders of this message. But the adviser to the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, a deputy from the Popular Front, Anton Gerashchenko, believes that no UPA to the murders of Buzina and Kalashnikov is not involved. “Each time resonant murders with political coloring occur, various kinds of mentally unbalanced personalities with the syndrome of greatness are crawled into the light of God.” And Gerashchenko believes that "such human tragedies are used by special services to disperse information waves in their interests."
However, no matter what versions are expressed, the only thing their adherents converge in: the killers must be found and punished.
