Basic Story...
Amid allegations going back and forth between Kiev’s “rulers” of massive corruptions in all directions. Igor Kolomoiskis hand-picked Chairman of the company that controls Ukraines pipelines (where Hunter Biden “works”)was called out for Corruption, fired, and replaced.
He barricaded himself in the office, refusing to leave, until some armed men showed up to Escort the new, Poroshenko “Party” Chairman into his office.
Claiming that his guy had been kicked out by Russian Agents, Kolomoiski showed up with several heavily-armed men and took back control of the company, by force.
He grabbed a bunch of documents, saying he intended to get to the bottom of this. (of course, we will NEVER see those incriminating docs again).
Sergei Leshchenko, an MP from the Petro Poroshenko Bloc posted in his account on Facebook that Kolomoiski, the unelected Governor of the Dnepropetrovsk region, and one of Ukraines richest oligarchs, arrived at the site accompanied by armed men to stand up for his guy, Lazorko.
Leshchenko explained why the oligarch was so quick to rush to Kiev. Lazorko had paid hundreds of millions of hryvnias to Kolomoisky for storing crude poured from the pipelines. he said.
The next day, Kolomoisky showed up with a LARGE group of Mercenaries, barricaded himself inside, while building meteal fences all around the building.
Poroshenko has sent some of the “Volunteer Guard” into Dnepropetrovsk to pressure his allies, while Reports say that one of Kolomoisky’s mercenary “Donbas” Battalions left the front lines last night, weapons in hand, and are heading to Kiev.
Within the last few hours, Tweets are saying that the Interior Ministry has kicked Kolomoisky’s troops out of Odessa, as well.
New Ukraine, same as the old Ukraine.
Incredibly corrupt.
And now, the U.S. Taxpayer is DIRECTLY funding this crap.
There is definitely something major going on, and Russia Media is speculating about a whole bunch of stuff, but facts on the ground in Kiev have suddenly gotten hard to find.
I support Ted Cruz in regards to sending weapons to Ukraine.
I oppose Obama’s weakness in the face of the Russian invasion.
Go Ted Cruz!!!
Sen. Ted Cruz slammed the Obama administrations approach to the Ukraine crisis, saying the White House should take a more aggressive role to shore up the nations defenses against Russia.
The Texas Republican said the strategy employed by the United States and Germany makes no sense, and it isnt working. It is long past time for us to step forward and provide defensive weapons.
