An appeal to EU Commissioners and MEPs

Kiev (Ukraine), 13 December 2013

Commissioners of the European Union

Members of the European Parliament

The Ukrainian nation is facing the historic moments of a fight for the preservation of its freedom, independence, sovereignty and integrity of the territory. These values are part of international law and must be respected by each state, hence by the European Union too. Today, however, we are witnesses to political hypocrisy and crime which power-hungry EU politicians conceal under the cover of human rights.

The so-called peaceful demonstrations in Ukraine have very quickly turned out to be an attempt at a coup, the overthrow of the legitimate Government and President. Coups have never been part of human rights or of international law either. No one has ever been so mad as to make them a human right. If any state or supranational organization organizes, finances, supports or leads a coup to overthrow the government and the President in another country, it commits a heavy political crime. Such a state or supranational organization should be condemned in the international court of justice.

The current coup in Ukraine is organized and financed by the U.S. and given active political support by the EU. Why? The two blocs are greedy for political and economic subjugation of Ukraine. This is modern colonialism, dirty political business and subjection of the Ukrainian market by force – de facto its elimination. Giving political support to EuroMaidan in Ukraine, the EU directly supports the coup.

Dear Sirs, we hereby appeal to You: Stop exerting political pressure on Ukraine! Stop interfering in its internal affairs! Stop forcing the Government of Ukraine and President Yanukovych into signing the Association Agreement!

In case You continue this colonialism, we demand that the EU as such should be dissolved as it has turned into a criminal organization which seeks to achieve its goals by coups d’etàt.
