Injured in missile attack on Odesa is Serhiy Kivalov. One of Ukraine’s most notable pro-Russian politicians, he oversaw the fraudulent 2004 elections that sparked the “Orange Revolution” and then was an MP from Yanukovych’s party, co-authoring a law that raised the status of the Russian language.

Once one of Ukraine’s most notable pro-Russian politicians, he oversaw the fraudulent 2004 elections that sparked the “Orange Revolution” and then was a long-serving MP from Yanukovych’s party, co-authoring a law that raised the status of the Russian language.

  2. And you know what’s the most f’ed part about this? He will still blame Ukraine.

  3. If he’s anything like Russian lovers in North America, he will continue to defend Russia. He’ll never admit that he was wrong. Not even to himself. He’ll see that attack as something that needed to be done, he just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

    Russia’s support is all about stubbornness. Refusal to admit to themselves that they supported an evil regime. Instead they dig in and build conspiracies to rationalize their judgment.

    I’m sure Serhiy is happy, happy to take one for the Motherland. Glad that Mother Russia hasn’t forgotten all he’s done for her.
