".....The Board of Directors of the IRI (The International Republican Institute) is chaired by Senator John McCain,.. the IRI has been active in Ukraine for over 10 years ....funded by US budget/ US private capital....McCain's involvement in the colored revolutions is clearly established in the documentary 'Manon Loizeau' devoted to color revolutions. .....easy to understand why McCain was recently rushed to Kiev to support the Ukrainian Protesters.
The "European People's Party" has close relations with the IRI..Wilfried Martens, EPP President at the time, supported John McCain in the U.S. presidential election.
After..The "Orange" Revolution, MCCain had already visited Ukraine (February 2005) to meet those he had largely funded. ...and was directly in violation of the International Agreement of non-interference in the internal affairs of a sovereign country.
McCain also visited the Arab countries..... Tunisia (2-21-2011)....Egypt (2-27-2011),.... Libya (4-22-2011)...Syria (5-27-2013)..... During the first two trips, governments had already fallen. In the last two, the battle raged (it is still in Syria.)
In Kiev, McCain addressed the rebels of Maidan (December 14, 2013). ......stating..."We are here to support your cause and it is the sovereign right of Ukraine to choose its own destiny freely and independently.... And the destiny that you want is in Europe "......he trumpeted. He met Yatsenyuk Klitschko and Tyahnybok........... Tyahnybok, was banned last year to enter the United States because of his anti-Semitic discourse.
The annual reports of the NED (also present in Kiev and affiliated with IRI)) show that just for 2012 the amounts awarded to sixty Ukrainian organizations amounted to nearly $ 3.4 million. ... In this report, it is stated that the IRI and NDI ..(McCain) received $380,000 and $345,000 for their activities in Ukraine. This would not include other payments just from NED.
...McCain, Guido Westerwelle, head of German diplomacy, took a walkabout amid protesters in the Maidan square with his "protected" "Yats" and "Klitsch" or, more politely, Yatsenyuk and Klitschko. .....After talking with them behind closed doors, he said ......"We are not here to support a party, but 'we support the European values'. And when we engage in these European values, it is of course nice to know that the vast majority of Ukrainians share these values, want to share and want to follow the path to Europe."
Yushchenko and McCain (February 2005).. note how he's drapped with the Orange Revolution scarf.
