On the TVI channel there is a "The price of Freedom" program. In a semi-informal situation the guests of studio invited by the leader carry on conversation for Ukraine. In a today, for yesterday's, in all 23 years of some events which preceded the real, but not calendar birth of the country and the Ukrainian political nation.
It is told about it in material of the "Durdom" edition.
For war and for that terrible price which we pay, fighting for a personal freedom, conscience, words, self-determination and for chance to construct Ukraine dreams.
Through question of all air - whether Ukraine for the bright future not could pay such scary bill.
The author of these letters well remembers the very first presidential elections.
The national liberation movement on rise. "Rukh" - the meynstrimny project uniting the real patriots and already then attracting people of different nationalities to whom in a throat the Scoop which decayed from lie stood a stake. The speaker and passionary Chornovil against streamline and cunning Kravchuk's smile. The hero of the dissident movement with the settled views checked by prison against the party functionary who is hastily mimicing under the democrat centrist.
Whether Chornovil could win then?
No. No. Also isn't present. Despite of "zhiviya ланцюг" in the Day of Conciliarity which collected nearly 3 million people. Despite powerful, active fraction of new democratic forces in parliament which by miracle managed to break resistance of the communistic majority. You remember, those cards with infographics of results of presidential elections? As the line of opposition between Ukraine and USSR slowly, step by step moved from the West to the east, erasing the Post-Soviet figures who got under this wave to history dust. In 1991 the old grandfather Shmul, dear person in Berdichev, wisely told Tsile: "Chornovol doesn't need to win. If it happens - the Russian tanks will enter Kiev, and the Ukrainian patriots will die in entrenchments. Not time still to be at war".
Ukraine wasn't ready to Independence. Happen then the military conflict to the Kremlin, the country would break up into 2 parts, but not across Dnieper as it was drawn by the bastard Medvedchuk in the 2004th, dividing Ukrainians into grades and for the first time starting in air the euphemism of "the South-vastok of Ukraine" created kremlyadyam, and approximately on border of the Lvov, Volynsk, Ivano-Frankovsk areas. There was nobody to protect new Ukraine. The people one foot densely got stuck in colonial sovok shit. Therefore chose it куркуля Kravchuk who in time replaced color of a budenovka.
Further presidential elections - our Ukrainian дао - a way of 23 years from the deep Russified first of all by spirit, but not the word, Soviet bottom on consciousness top.
With each iteration the border between Light and Darkness moved everything farther to the east than the country. Even formal, let with multiple falsifications Yanukovych's victory, was already powerless against the evolution which created eventually a feat of Heavenly one hundred on the Maidan.
In the winter of last year Ukraine started paying for the freedom. Blood and tears. To escape from paws of the Kremlin rashizm, juicy mix of century imperial ambitions and wild chauvinism not easy.
Ukraine appealed to the help of Europe which with signing of one not urgent associative piece of paper became a reason for revolt, having opened the deep reasons - keen desire to break construction of the gangster regime of Yanukovych. Europeans were silent and mumbled something inattentively to the first blood. Not that, which at night for November 30. And that which dense drops fell to the Grushevsky street on January 22. "Concern" grew in sizes, but was same helpless and impotentny.
The second bucket of blood in the base of future country Ukrainians offered on February 18-20. The bleating Europeans grew dumb with horror and heroism at the same time. The heavenly one hundred, thousands of victims and wounded became an installment in sobering up of the world and sounded such alarm that about Ukraine heard everything. It appeared that is more attentive than others I listened dwarfish недомачо, got a false idea himself the new Fuhrer of Vsey SSSR-2.0.
Yes, there were still victims on Maydanakh in Cherkassy, Zaporozhye, Kharkov, Dnieper, Donetsk. The bacterium of hatred and universal lie started by the Kremlin reaped the crop among ardent fighters for Ukraine and extended among latent separatists and open enemies of the newborn nation.
Why quite in details prepared storms of the buildings seized by separatists Lugansk didn't take place, Donetsk the SBU is a separate conversation. But one of the reasons - too little in our country still was the soldiers capable to shoot at living people. The taboo on shots in invaders was removed after execution of esbeushnik on the suburb of Slavyansk on April 13, 2014. Then there was a cleaning of the Donetsk airport, liberation of Slavyansk, Kramatorsk and further hanging out yellow-blue flags on towns and the villages of Donbass. Didn't rest against Ilovaysk yet. That execution, along the "corridor" which is thought up some by Judas for an exit from an environment, again shook the world. Not our bodies of volunteers, but that obvious miss of the western policy of concealment of the conflict. Anglo-Saxons at last understood that the Donbass adventure is a not distracting maneuver from annexation of the Crimea. This full invasion Russian-путлеровских of troops. Ukraine gave lives of hundreds of most not indifferent sons for the next enlightenment of the so-called civilized world. Then rashist brought down "Boeing". Fired at Volnovakhu, Mariupol, Kramatorsk. Each volley - strike against the lazy, timid and bureaucratized Europe. Calls with a universal cry of a trumpet of Jericho.
Directly these minutes we are witnesses of new sacrifice of Ukrainians. Somewhere on approaches and in residential quarters of the small town with the foolish name of Debaltsevo, tens our soldiers die. They are shot by tanks over open sights since our artillery executing the order on next "truce" was silent at the most necessary moments, and parquet napoleona were too badly prepared to protect the base which only lazy didn't call the first possible target for attack. In "truce" which double-faced Hollande in the company with grown wiser, but still indecisive and naive Merkel, was imposed to Ukraine. A truce which we really needed, but had to receive it on absolutely other conditions, hoping for a hard line of new partners from the EU, those that as you remember, stood at the origins of a zavarivaniye of porridge.
Even if our semi-marshals and trizhdymayor from the General Staff now will wake up, will give at last Poroshenko a real picture of an operational situation at the front and will throw reserve parts on break, giving chance to the surrounded group in Debaltsevo it isn't simple to stand, and to disengage winners, we will precisely pay for it the new terrible price.
For the weakness, which roots in 23 years' inaction and a connivance to total theft and corruption. That the card of electoral preferences of the new Ukrainian nation reached eastern frontiers of the state not in 2010, and only in May of the 2015th. For a political blindness of the European Union which wallowed in consumerism. For its conformism forgiving to the Kremlin ghouls occupations of others territories. For the short-sightedness in Putin's estimates, this new Hitler blinded by contracts on the Russian gas and oil.
The world begins to see clearly. The USA think quicker, they already said goodbye to false "reset". Only the EU persistently doesn't want to notice the maniac who swings nuclear warheads at them on a porch, and in the zombie-box twists cinema about bombings of Poland and the Baltic States. After Debaltsevo's victims the world will wake up another. The one who will pretend to be deaf, blind and mute person - will disappear from the list of the influential.
Failure of Minsk-2 is obvious. Putler is torn suit us a bloody bath by anniversary of a victory of the Maidan, it was too predictable not to predict. If Europe silently will swallow our victims in Debaltsevo, we will need to look for other Europe. Without false diplomatic smiles and secret trade in the principles.
It is a pity that Ukraine is compelled to pay for each revelation in lives of the heroes.
It is our price of inevitable future victory which we pay, having delayed the moment for 23 years. But we pay with Advantage. Not without reason we lifted this feeling on the Revolution flag.
