Lithuania remains true to its practice to participate in the preparation of the “color revolutions” in former Soviet republics, whose regimes seem to Vilnius and Washington is not enough anti-Russian. The Lithuanian authorities are cooperating with Ukrainian ultra, implement joint projects with them and allow them to call for the ouster of President Poroshenko on the pages of the biggest Lithuanian media. As is the case with Viktor Yanukovych, Lithuania painstakingly proves the title of a true friend, an ally, and “lawyer” official Kiev. As is the case with Yanukovych, while Vilnius is working with the radical-nationalist opposition to President Poroshenko and not miss a chance to support a new revolution in Kiev on condition of coming to power in Ukraine is even more anti-Russian forces.
In May 2013 the Liberal-Democratic Alliance “For Europe!” In the European Parliament organized a forum on the Lithuanian Presidency of the European Union in the second half of 2013 and planned to sign an agreement on association of Ukraine with the EU at the Vilnius summit as the culmination of this presidency.
The main newsmaker of the forum was the MEP from Lithuania Leonidas Donskis, who said that in order to Ukraine made “European choice” Europeans need to work not with the authorities of the country, not with President Viktor Yanukovych and the ruling Party of Regions, and to rely on civil society and the opposition. “I do not believe that the great potential for change is at most of Yanukovych and his government. I think that the potential for change is in the society and the forces that can really change the Ukraine – it is the opposition of the Parliament, independent journalists, writers, intellectuals, “- Donskis said.
Simply put, Lithuanian MEP suggested to cook in Kiev a new “orange revolution” in case Yanukovych in Vilnius show obstinacy and refuses to sign the document on Ukraine’s association with the EU on the conditions that it offers.
Similar in the sense of a threat to the Ukrainian president throughout 2013 were also received from other European politicians, including the President and Prime Minister of Lithuania.
At the same time as the Lithuanian diplomacy is strongly emphasized that the official Kyiv is no more loyal friend and ally than Vilnius. Lithuania – the main “lawyer” Yanukovych in Europe, Lithuania is ready tirelessly to prove Western allies that the president Yanukovych – the democratic leader and partner of negotiability that his regime is not corrupt. Lithuania waives any claims to the Ukrainian leadership on compliance with European values and human rights.
So much so, that Lithuania was the only country in the world, has officially refused to join the liberation of the requirements of the detention of Yulia Tymoshenko. Two weeks before the Vilnius Summit Lithuanian Seimas rejected the resolution, in which the release of Tymoshenko Yanukovych called the principal condition for the signing of the Agreement on the association of Ukraine with the EU. Lithuanian seymunasy then quite frankly explained why they voted against: any obstacle to Ukraine’s Association with the EU will only create greater prerequisites for Ukraine to remain in the orbit of Russian influence.
That is Lithuanian politicians was emphasized not care about human rights, European values and the criminal nature of the regime of Yanukovych.
While Yanukovych was taking steps away from Russia, they were ready to be his “lawyers”, cover it and close your eyes to everything.
But when Yanukovych once to give a hint about the national interests of Ukraine, try to bargain on the terms of association with the EU and not to sign the Agreement in Vilnius, a Vilnius immediately forgot about the friendship and alliance, proclaimed Yanukovych’s a thief and a bandit, and strongly supported the Kyiv Maidan.
Something similar is happening now. In words and deeds Lithuania – the most loyal friend, an ally, and “lawyer” Poroshenko regime. Lithuania – the only country in the world, officially and deliberately supplying weapons to Kiev. Vilnius – the only ally of the official Kyiv that without thinking accepted the faith of his delirium that no terrorist attacks in the Crimea was not planned: the Russian military and border guards themselves a shot, but a group of Ukrainian military commandos Russian security services abducted from the territory of Ukraine and smuggled in “annexed Crimea”, where the saboteurs came to rest and where no terrorist attacks will never planned.
At the same time the Lithuanian authorities are working with the radical nationalist opposition to the regime Poroshenko, whose members believe the current president of Ukraine is not enough anti-Russian, and the pages of the biggest Lithuanian media call to overthrow him.
In September of 2013, two months before the start of the second Maidan in Lithuania surprise to all observers flew the then leaders of the pro-Western opposition – the next formal triumvirate of leaders “of the revolution gidnosti” Arseniy Yatsenyuk, Vitali Klitschko and Oleg Tyahnybok. Their meeting with the President of Lithuania Dalia Grybauskaite took place in the midst of a “great friendship” with the latest Viktor Yanukovych. And last week, in the midst of a “great friendship” Dalia Grybauskaite with Petro Poroshenko, Lithuania was visited by the leaders of the neo-fascist Ukrainian party “Right Sector” Andrei Tarasenko and Oleg Kuzko. Following the visit to Vilnius Tarasenko and Kuzko gave a joint interview to the Lithuanian Internet portal Delfi, which called for a revolution against Poroshenko.
“We have one goal. We have not changed it since the inception of the “Right Sector”. We created it as a revolutionary force to change the system of government in the country. The system is not changed until now, so we are working hard to make this still achieve “- say the leaders of the Lithuanian edition of the far-right organizations.
Leaders of the “Right Sector” Just make it clear that they intend to come to power in Ukraine, but not through elections. “I have already said that we have to change the system and understand that any choice will not will achieve. Therefore, two years of our struggle, of course, there was a war. All the money and effort that we had, we let the war: it was necessary to stop the enemy. The situation is slightly different. The so-called truce. And we are working with all methods. We go to all elections in order to convey their propaganda, to communicate to the people of our ideas. But we understand that the choices we bought, the Central Election Commission have worked on those who in power. Therefore, after the elections to change something in this country is impossible. ”
How to change the system in Ukraine, if not through elections? Only one solution – revolution.
“This rapid change in the system, a leap forward. Revolution – is not necessarily the blood and collect the Maidan. I’m talking about the essence “, – said Andrei Tarasenko.
Why Ukraine needs a new revolution and the overthrow of Poroshenko? In order to renew the war in Donbass. Friendly Vilnius Ukrainian radicals categorically deny Minsk agreements, compromises with the South-East and the possibility of a peaceful settlement of the conflict in the Donbass. “I believe that by Petro Poroshenko need to put our occupied territories suggestion that either you rent 72 hours a weapon, or we begin to sweep. And prepare a normal operation. But none of this to do, as I understand it, is not going to. We play in a truce “, – says Oleg Kuzko.
From a situation where neo-Nazis do not give off in full and to hold a “sweep” of Donbass with the extermination of the rebellious population – a natural feeling for marginal radical “zrady” collusion with the Kremlin leadership of the country, serving as the basis for his moral force to overthrow the government. “Our government does not think about Ukrainians, and about their pockets. Therefore, goes in the wake of the Kremlin, and what it offers in these negotiations, they just execute “, – said Tarasenko.
On the question: “What prevents the Ukraine to solve at the moment the problem of Donbass” – the leader of “pravosekov” says: “The desire of our government.” “The political will to resolve this problem neither the General Staff nor our president does not. Everyone still profitable, everyone except us, happy with everything “- sums up Kuzko.
Cooperating with the “Right Sector” and giving its leaders a major media platform, Lithuania, in the first place, again goes counter to the entire international community, by supporting a military solution to the conflict in the South-East of Ukraine, and secondly, is prepared at the event put a knife in the back Ukrainian President Poroshenko, investing in new Bandera Maidan.
Vilnius official action logic is clear. Despite the fact that after the resignation of Prime Minister Yatsenyuk and restraint oligarch Kolomoisky Peter Poroshenko significantly strengthened its position within the elite, its power becomes more and more unstable. Poroshenko mode is still a coalition: it is not monolithic, and includes not only the members of the presidential team, but also their political rivals of the “Popular Front”. Rating current president of Ukraine is around 10%; according to polls, the presidential election Peter Poroshenko did not even come out in the second round.
Viktor Yanukovych was twice as popular and concentrated in his hands all the political power at a time when the Ukrainian oligarchs permission from the West hit his rapid Maidan, and forced to flee the country. For Poroshenko same risk “get under the Maidan,” a multiple above – to live up to the presidential elections in 2019 is politically and physically for the current president of Ukraine would be tantamount to a miracle.
Vilnius, keeping an unhealthy interest in Ukraine in spite of all the failures of his foreign policy in this area, in the current situation naturally relies on the “party of war”. A visit to the Lithuanian capital of the leaders of the “Right sector” – this is just another manifestation of the deep and long-standing fruitful cooperation between the Lithuanian authorities and the Ukrainian far-right. It is enough to recall the book platoon spetsbatalona “Aydar” Eugene Savage, published by the Lithuanian Military Academy named after Jonas Žemaitis.
Lithuania is always ready to support the new “color revolution” in the former Soviet Union and the overthrow of the anti-Russian forces even under the condition that will come to power even more anti-Russian forces.
Willingness Ukrainian far-right immediately to resume the war in Donbass and stage a “cleansing” of the Lithuanian authorities did not scare – Ukrainian army supply 150 tons of ammunition past have already shown that they would welcome such a scenario of conflict resolution in the South-East. As already mentioned, today Lithuania – a hotbed of instability in Eastern Europe, for the sake of “struggle against Russian influence,” ready to support, to provoke and foment new revolutions, coups and military conflicts on the post-Soviet space.
Therefore, the current Ukrainian leadership should not be deceived in the allied fraternal feelings Lithuania, which the Foreign Ministry supports Ukraine in all the issues, and the President Dalia Grybauskaite – numerous meetings sweetly smiling Petro Poroshenko. Just sweet Grybauskaite in 2013, Viktor Yanukovych was smiling, parallel hosting of the Ukrainian opposition leaders, who just a few months Yanukovych’s overthrow. Today Grybauskaite sweet smiles Poroshenko, and Lithuania, meanwhile, visit leaders of the “Right Sector”, planning a new revolution in Kiev.
Smiles Grybauskaite should not deceive anyone. For Lithuanian politicians betray Changeling – a profession. Yanukovych in the already convinced, and soon convinced Poroshenko.
