Coup-instaled authorities begin charge those opposing their "interim government."

[another_liberal]

The coup-installed "interim government" in Kiev has begun to charge those Ukrainians who oppose their seizure of power and those who supported Russia's annexation of Crimea as enemies of the new Ukrainian State:

Crimean chief prosecutor Natalia Poklonskaya ‘wanted’ by Ukraine's security service

Ukrainian national security service has put Crimea’s chief prosecutor Natalia Poklonskaya on its wanted list. She is charged of taking actions aimed at the violent overthrow of constitutional order and takeover of government power. Poklonskaya took the office as Crimea defied the coup-imposed government in Kiev and sought independence from Ukraine. After the peninsula joined the Russian Federation, she was appointed as Crimea's acting chief prosecutor by Russia’s General Prosecutor Yury Chaika. The Ukrainian National Service for Security and Defense accuse her of violating article 109 of the Criminal Code, which deals with overthrow of the government.

Poklonskaya became somewhat of an internet sensation due you relative youth, attractive appearance and emotional media conferences. A number of anime-style drawings of the official are currency circulation on the web, with many supporters calling her ‘kawaii prosecutor’ after the Japanese term for cuteness.



The now-wanted in Ukraine officer of the law is somewhat irritated with her web popularity, she told the media, because it undermines the serious nature of her job.

Last week the Ukrainian security service said it was investigating 22 alleged cases under Article 109. Seven of the alleged ‘separatists’, as Kiev calls them, are under arrest. Among those charged are several leaders of protests in eastern Ukraine, which defied the new authorities.

They seem to be going the way of that other coup the West recently supported: That of the Egyptian generals.

[NuclearDem]

4. I'm agreeing with the article here.

Even though it is RT. Prosecuting political rivals is not okay.

[another_liberal]

5. I see . . .

Definitely misread your intent. I'll edit my reply.

[snappyturtle]

3. Well if that isn't the pot calling the kettle black! The hypocrisy is stunning as is

the U.S. support of this illegitimate, thug infested 'government' of present day Ukraine. imho

[another_liberal]

6. I fear . . .

We may have only begun to see what our much-vaunted "interim government" is capable of.

[snappyturtle]

7. I fear for that too. Afraid the May election will be fraught with votes

under intimidation. Pity the Ukrainian people. They're being entombed in poverty by the IMF and don't have a whimper of voice left to vote these thugs out.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

11. Votes under intimidation.....

.....hmm, I wonder what that reminds me of?

[malaise]

9. It won't last

It's already falling apart

[snappyturtle]

13. And it should continue, after all the mission is accomplished. Unfortunately,

I don't think the thugs will go down easily.

[malaise]

14. Thugs can destroy not build

They won't last

[snappyturtle]

16. I see I wasn't clear. "And it should continue", i.e. their destruction.

I agree with you malaise. However, I think the thugs will cause trouble on their way out.

[malaise]

17. Agreed

[snappyturtle]

18. and back.....

8. Sounds About Like Mr. Lincoln's Attitude Towards Jeff Davis, Sir

You cannot seriously expect any government actually in power to tolerate people who have collaborated with a foreign invader, or are actively soliciting assistance from a foreign power in a campaign of secession.

"If we lose, we're the rebel army. If we win, we're the loyal army."

19. Lincoln won a democratic election to become our President . . .

The people holding power in Kiev right now got their positions through our manipulation of Molotov cocktail throwing street thugs and violent fascists. There is no viable comparison between the so-called "interim government" and President Lincoln's. The Ukraine's coup-installed government is, in fact, far more comparable to the Confederate government of Jefferson Davis.

[The Magistrate]

28. Good Luck With That, Sir

You will find few takers for the line you are peddling, and no one who seriously considers matters will be surprised that a government in power takes action against persons engaged in sedition and treasonous conspiracy.

10. Why is "wanted" in quotation marks in the article? This isn't

being reported by any legit news source and RT is nothing but Putin's propaganda website. The comments under the article are a pretty good representation of the nuts who take RT seriously though.

[another_liberal]

20. Give it a rest.

Russia Today is a well-respected news source throughout most of the world, even though it is clearly much hated by some few with easily frightened and seemingly closed minds.

[Nuclear Unicorn]

12. But she's PRETTY!

Has she been poisoned yet?

[another_liberal]

22. Let's just hope she is well protected.

This is no joke.

[Nuclear Unicorn]

23. I'm sure Putin will prtect his prize with his best assassins.

[another_liberal]

24. Are "assassins" realy good at being "protectors?"

I'm not really sure that follows?

[Nuclear Unicorn]

25. They've been protecting Putin's thug ass for decades.

[another_liberal]

26. Got a source for that?

I'm fascinated to learn where you come by such intimate knowledge concerning a major World leader's security arrangements.

[Nuclear Unicorn]

27. Yeah, all those dead journalists are just a coincidence.

NEXT UP: "It was never officially proven!"

Yeah, and it was never officially proven Bush's wars were illegitimate.

[snooper2]

15. RT LOL, ROFLMFAO

This sentence is just classic-


"Crimea defied the coup-imposed government in Kiev and sought independence from Ukraine."

Um, yeah...right

[another_liberal]

21. What is funny about that?

Tragic maybe and certainly avoidable, but hardly funny.
