Andrei Volkov - Entrevista com Rafael Lusvarghi, Voluntário Brasileiro na Nova Rússia


por Andrei Volkov
Traduzido por Raphael Camisão

​

(NT: Esta entrevista foi feita no dia 1/1/2015 pelo russo Andrei Volkov para o site sueco Operation Novorossiya com Rafael Lusvarghi, brasileiro que figurou nos noticiários ao ser brutalizado pela polícia durante as manifestações de meados de 2014, teve a imagem explorada ao ter a vida detalhadamente descoberta, e, agora, encontra-se lutando na Nova Rússia contra a Junta de Kiev. Apesar de introduções longas geralmente se fazerem necessárias, a entrevista é completa o bastante.)
Andrei: Poderia apresentar-se?
Lusvarghi: Meu nome é Rafael Marques Lusvarghi, nasci em Jundiaí, perto de São Paulo, no Brasil. Servi na Legião Estrangeira Francesa por alguns anos, e, de volta ao Brasil, tornei-me um tenente na Polícia Montada. Sempre tive grande amor pela Rússia, e é por isso que vivi lá por um tempo e aprendi cultura, língua e história.
Andrei: Dada a situação na Nova Rússia, como está se mantendo?
Lusvarghi: Estou me mantendo bem. Sou um guerreiro profissional... (risos) E, com meus camaradas aqui, formamos uma família de verdade. Então, apesar de todas as dificuldades e dos sacrifícios, tudo tem ido bem.
Andrei: Você mencionou ter experiência militar, mas que tipo de vida você tinha antes de se juntar a nossos camaradas na Nova Rússia, e o que o fez ir, em primeiro lugar?
Lusvarghi: Antes de vir, eu trabalhava para a IBM em Campinas, e tinha trabalhos extras como professor de língua estrangeira. Eu me envolvi por um tempo nas manifestações brasileiras contra a corrupção e a maneira como prepararam a Copa do Mundo em meu país. Quando o Maidan apareceu em Kiev, já estava interessado em ajudar. Assim que a guerra estourou, com meu currículo militar, eu tinha certeza que podia ajudar a terra que é a dos meus ancestrais. É uma honra poder ajudar.
Andrei: Você tem planos de voltar para casa? Caso sim, como acha que seu país vai recebe-lo quando chegar?
Lusvarghi: Tenho o desejo te ir para o Brasil para visitar minha família e meus amigos. No entanto, planejo ficar aqui e criar minha própria família. Mas esta guerra será longa, e prefiro viver o momento que sonhar com um futuro.
Não tenho dúvida que serei aclamado por alguns como um herói. Por outros, como um criminoso. Meu governo, no entanto, é bastante neutro, e não espero muitos problemas. Talvez alguma visita à Polícia Federal para prestar depoimentos, mas nada além disso.
Andrei: Você fala russo? Caso contrário, como se comunica com seus camaradas russófonos?
Lusvarghi: Falo russo. Comunicação não é um problema para mim.
Andrei: Caso você tenha, quais são suas visões políticas sobre a guerra na Nova Rússia? E, caso tenham acontecido, que discussões você teve com os soldados com os quais você serve?
Lusvarghi: Sou um grande fã de Aleksandr Dugin e das teorias políticas eurasianas. Não são muito conhecidas por aqui. É bom lembrar que as pessoas com as quais luto são de classes baixas, e carecem de educação formal. Mas gostaria de dizer que eles têm elementos do socialismo e muitos sentimentos nacionalistas. Também gostaria de dizer que eles são contra o trotskismo e contra a esquerda moderna. Acreditam, assim como eu, que andam lado a lado com os oligarcas e os poderes ocidentais que oprimem estas terras.
Andrei: Como falamos com o camarada (Victor) Lenta mais cedo, pouco foi dito sobre o sofrimento dos civis novorrussos na mídia sueca. Muitos são fortemente antirrussos, e a propaganda de guerra descarada contra a Rússia e comumente vista em artigos nos jornais suecos. Você tem algo a dizer ao povo da Suécia sobre a cituação da população civil (no passado ou no presente) como um resultado dos ataques em Donetsk ou em Lugansk?
Lusvarghi: Sim. Vi com meus próprios olhos o que aconteceu quando unidades mais “politizadas” das forças ucranianas, como a Guarda Nacional e regimentos mercenários e voluntários vieram a nossas terras. Eles fizeram limpeza étnica. Vi crianças, mulheres e idosos mortos. Também, por causa do bloqueio, se não fosse pela ajuda humanitária russa, a população civil estaria passando fome e sem medicamentos.
Andrei: Em seu país, como as pessoas veem o conflito entre a OTAN e a Rússia, entre a Ucrânia e a Nova Rússia? Há muitos que apoiam a Nova Rússia? Como se tem noticiado o conflito, amigavelmente para com os EUA ou o contrário?
Lusvarghi: O governo brasileiro é neutro, mas a mídia é totalmente apoiadora da OTAN e dos EUA. Ainda assim, penso que os brasileiros, em sua maioria, estejam apoiando o povo de Donbass. Não necessariamente a Rússia, mas as pessoas daqui.
Também, por causa da Copa do Mundo, das eleições, das manifestações e do escândalo de corrupção da PETROBRAS, a mídia brasileira não tem coberto muito do que se passa aqui. Pelo menos é o que disse minha família...
Andrei: Tem algo que você gostaria de dizer a nossa audiência sueca que está lendo esta entrevista?
Lusvarghi: Gostaria de lembrar que as leis internacionais forçam que qualquer região ou povo tem o direito de declarar sua independência unilateralmente, mesmo que seja contra a lei do governo central que os controla. Assim fez Kosovo. Assim fez a América. Assim fizeram muitos. Por que não o povo de Donbass? Por que o Ocidente apoia tais ações, e, agora, abruptamente e sem argumentos, condena-as?
Andrei: Obrigado por conceder-nos um pouco de seu merecido tempo livre para responder estas perguntas. Em nome de todos os meus camaradas suecos e da Operation Novorossiya: Solidarity Donbass, desejo a você toda a sorte em empreendimentos futuros. Espero falar com você de novo em breve!
Lusvarghi: Obrigado!
Mais uma coisa: diga aos suecos que deveriam lembrar-se de seu passado pagão, lutando contra a opressão cristã e a conversão forçada!
Andrei: Direi!

Tipo, wat?

''Corpo de brasileiro na ucrânia é encontrado desfigurado,itamaraty vai fazer o translado''.

 

[Beiçola From Hell]

O que ser Nova Rússia? Ah nem quero saber...

A Rússia hj vive em um regime legitimamente Fascista (Estado forte, centralizador, opressor, que escolhe quem irá vencer, economicamente falando e se mantem politicamente graças à supressão real de qualquer concorrência) e que poderia se desenvolver MUITO caso um governo Democrático de fato se estabelecesse.

Agora tendo em vista a forma Vermelhinha como esse sujeito fala, não vejo progresso algum caso o pensamento dessa figura ai vença naquele país.

 

[Pingu77]

Boa entrevista. Até admiro a veia aventureira do sujeito, quase meio Lord Byron, mas em relação à política apesar do discurso dele ser aparentemente articulado, aqui no Brasil ele dava a impressão de ser só mais um coxinha engajado. Não que eu tenho moral para peitar o sujeito, já que me envolvi pouquíssimo comparado a ele.

Sobre às colocações dele, elas são bastante pertinentes, já que apesar do plebiscito da Crimeia ter sido parcial e sem o devido equilíbrio diante do calor do momento, pela dada situação de conflito, o argumento procede devido ao que aconteceu em Kosovo com apoio não apenas dos EUA, mas da OTAN, bem como da ONU.

Em relação à Rússia, de fato é um país que ainda carece muito de democracia, em parte pela origem do Estado forte e de raízes ainda autoritárias que existe em resquícios da URSS estalinista, mas por outro lado, é bem verdade que a imprensa internacional demoniza o país, e a ideologia tucano-coxinha do Brasil de muitos setores compra essa propaganda (que na verdade é apenas uma briga de poder geopolítico), e passa a mãozinha na cabeça da política externa americana no Oriente Médio, por exemplo.

 

[Pingu77]

Aliás, eu já tinha postado aqui, que o número de mercenários estrangeiros servindo nesse conflito é imenso, de tendências políticas variadas quando não apolíticos, desde republicanos espanhóis de esquerda a suecos supremacistas raciais de extrema-direita:

O número de estrangeiros participando voluntariamente desse conflito é até expressivo, mas nada que se compare à Guerra da Bósnia ou à Guerra Civil Espanhola.

Ukraine war pulls in foreign fighters

By Patrick Jackson
BBC News

Rafa Munoz Perez, a Spaniard serving with the rebels in Donetsk, wears a Spanish Republic wristband

French, Spanish, Swedish or Serb, the foreigners fighting for both sides in east Ukraine's bloody conflict hail from across Europe and come with a bewildering array of agendas.

The non-mercenaries among them are motivated by causes which can stretch back to the wars in the former Yugoslavia - and even further still, to the Spanish Civil War of the 1930s.

Russia is the elephant in the room, dwarfing any other foreign nationality, although it is increasingly hard to disentangle Russians fighting as volunteers from regular soldiers allegedly deployed on covert missions.

Ukraine's pro-Russian rebels like to talk up their foreign volunteer fighters, presenting them as latter-day International Brigades fighting "fascism". Meanwhile there has been some debate in Kiev on the wisdom of creating a Ukrainian "Foreign Legion".

Here we look at some of the foreign fighters by country of origin, in a phenomenon which, in a small way, mirrors that of young Muslims from Britain and other parts of Europe travelling to the Middle East to fight in its wars.



Russia

It is no secret that Russian citizens have occupied senior posts among the rebels, the most famous of them being Igor "Strelkov" Girkin, who reportedly held the rank of reserve colonel in Russia's Federal Security Service as late as last year.

There is strong evidence that rank-and-file Russian fighters have entered east Ukraine to join the rebels, but whether they are volunteers making common cause with ethnic Russians in Luhansk and Donetsk, or mercenaries, is a grey area.

Rebel leader Alexander Zakharchenko has stated publicly that between 3.000 and 4,000 Russian "volunteers" have fought for the rebels since the start of the uprising in April.

"There are also many in the current Russian military that prefer to spend their leave among us, brothers who are fighting for their freedom, rather than on a beach," he said on 28 August.

Evidence has mounted that regular Russian soldiers are involved, with 10 paratroopers captured inside Ukraine and indirect evidence of military casualties at home in Russia.

Chechens, both from Russia's Republic of Chechnya and from the anti-Russian diaspora living in exile, are believed to be involved on both sides of the conflict, but predominantly fighting for the rebels.

A gunman who presented himself as a Chechen called Ruslan Arsayev told the Mashable news website in an interview he was fighting for Ukraine because he wouldn't "bend over for Putin".



At the scene: Oliver Carroll, journalist working in Ukraine

A number of foreign fighters serve in the Aidar volunteer battalion currently fighting in east Ukraine. Chechen Ruslan Arsayev is perhaps the most colourful example. An army veteran of six military campaigns, Ruslan came to Ukraine to fight during the Maidan revolution. He was injured twice, once seriously, when a bullet punctured his lung.

He comes from a well-known family of warriors. One of his brothers was security minister in Aslan Maskhadov's rebel government. Another was convicted of hijacking a plane en route to Moscow in 2001, an action that resulted in the loss of three lives.

At the Aidar base near Luhansk, Ruslan explained he had come to Ukraine because of Putin. "Putin has turned my home into Stalin's Russia, with a dozen informants on every street," he said. He wasn't prepared to accept Putin's rule, and predicted an uprising in Chechnya in the "very, very near" future.



France

Some 20 French citizens have gone to Ukraine to fight on both sides, French public radio station France Info said in a report (in French) on 11 August.

Four of them, including two former soldiers, went to Donetsk to fight for the rebels. They were filmed by Russian newspaper Komsomolskaya Pravda posing with guns.

Their spokesman is Victor Lenta, 25, who earlier told France's Le Monde newspaper (article in French) he had been a corporal in the Third Marine Infantry Paratroop Regiment and had served in Afghanistan, Ivory Coast and Chad. Another member of the group is Nikola Perovic, also 25 and with Serbian ancestry, who likewise reportedly fought in Afghanistan as a corporal in France's 13th Mountain Infantry Battalion.

The French group gave Le Monde journalist Pierre Sautreil a photo of Nikola Perovic holding up a French flag in the southern Donetsk region on 11 August

They told Le Monde they were the founders of an ultra-nationalist movement called Continental Unity, which has organised demonstrations in France and Serbia in support of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and Serbian war crimes suspect Vojislav Seselj.

In their view, according to Le Monde, Russia is the final bulwark against liberal globalisation which they consider "responsible for the decline in national values and loss of French sovereignty".

Their main role among the rebels, apparently, is to provide combat training for recruits from West European countries.

Gaston Besson, on the other hand, has been fighting for the Ukrainian government as a member of its Azov volunteer battalion, a unit known for its far-right associations.

Aged 47, he nonetheless describes himself as a "leftwing revolutionary", according to France Info. Reported to be a former paratrooper, he is said to have fought in previous conflicts ranging from Croatia to Colombia

He is known for his efforts to recruit other foreigners and, according to a Eurasianet article, wrote in June: "Every day I receive dozens of requests to join us by email, especially from countries like Finland, Norway and Sweden."



At the scene: Pierre Sautreuil, French journalist working in Ukraine

I met the French volunteers for the first time on 9 July in a bar in Budapest, Hungary. Up until then, our exchanges by phone had been brief and their answers evasive.

The rules for this first meeting were simple: they pose the questions. They feared I might be a French intelligence agent. "We can't trust you yet."

After a long series of questions about my background, and my opinions on the Ukrainian crisis, they asked for my passport and photographed it several times.

"We have nothing but enemies in intelligence," one of them told me, handing back my passport. We said our goodbyes.

Next day I got a phone call: "Our friends have completed their little investigation. You're clean. We'll meet at 19:00." And thus began my investigation.



Spain

For two Spanish leftists, the conflict in east Ukraine represents a chance to repay what they see as a historic favour.

Angel Davilla-Rivas told Reuters news agency he had come with his comrade Rafa Munoz Perez to fight for the rebels in recognition of the Soviet Union's support for the Republican side in the Spanish Civil War.

Mr Munoz, 27, is a former social worker from Madrid who has been a member of the youth wing of the United Left political movement since 2010, Spain's El Pais newspaper said in an article. His friend, 22, is from Murcia and belongs to the youth wing of a branch of the Spanish Communist Party, the paper added.

Mr Davilla-Rivas showed off tattoos of Soviet leaders Vladimir Lenin and Joseph Stalin on his torso.

"I am the only son, and it hurts my mother and father and my family a lot that I am putting myself at risk. But... I can't sleep in my bed knowing what's going on here," he told Reuters.

There are also reports of Spaniards fighting on the government side, according to an article in the Kyiv Post.



Serbia

Dozens of Serbs are believed to be fighting for the rebels, ostensibly drawn by an ethnic and nationalist sense of solidarity with the region's Russian Orthodox Christians and residual hostility towards Nato, regarding the Ukrainian government as its proxy.

However, Belgrade-based security expert Zoran Dragisic told German broadcaster Deutsche Welle in a report that Serbian fighters were primarily fighting as mercenaries and could be found on both sides in Ukraine.

"It's indoctrination that draws young people - some of them almost children - to war," he said.

Meanwhile, there are moves within Serbia to stem the flow of fighters heading east with a law that penalises participation in a foreign war.



Sweden

In an interview with the BBC's Dina Newman, a Swedish sniper with far-right views, Mikael Skillt, said he was fighting for the Ukrainian government because he believed in the "survival of white people". Like France's Gaston Besson, he is a member of the Azov battalion.

"I would be an idiot if I said I did not want to see survival of white people," he said. "After World War Two, the victors wrote their history. They decided that it's always a bad thing to say I am white and I am proud."

At the same time, he added that he planned eventually to fight for Syrian President Bashar al-Assad because he believed Mr Assad was standing up to "international Zionism".



Poland

Reports that Poles were fighting in Ukraine prompted the government in Warsaw to formally deny that Polish citizens were fighting as mercenaries for the Ukrainian government. It went on to warn that any Poles who go there to fight could face jail upon their return, Deutsche Welle reports.

Leonid Smolinski, a 49-year-old Polish citizen born in Ukraine, was killed in a rebel ambush on 12 August while serving in Ukraine's Dnipro volunteer battalion, according to Euromaidan Press.

At least one Pole has also sided with the rebels. In a speech in the rebel capital Donetsk, carried by radical Polish website xportal, Bartosz Becker described himself as a representative of "Polish free people who are against Nato terrorist bases in Poland".



Germany

Margarita Zeidler is a former nurse who moved to Ukraine in 2002 for religious reasons after converting to the Russian Orthodox Church, according to an interview with Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper (in Russian).

Dismayed by events in Kiev during the Maidan uprising over the winter she moved initially to Crimea, then to Donetsk region, she said, after one of her friends was shot dead there in May. She became the rebels' information officer in Sloviansk during its siege by government forces.

While she describes herself as a journalist, she told the newspaper that she always keeps an assault rifle "within reach".

Speaking in Russian in a video posted on YouTube on 11 August, she said she could not "stand by and watch Ukrainian fascists kill civilians".



USA

Despite rebel allegations to the contrary, there is little evidence of American volunteer involvement on the ground. The exception was a Ukrainian-American called Mark Gregory Paslawsky, who had taken Ukrainian citizenship.

Paslawsky, or Franko as he liked to be known, was killed fighting for the Ukrainian government side in the embattled town of Ilovaisk. In an interview for Vice News, the 55-year-old West Point graduate and investment banker from New York had explained he wanted ultimately to help root out corruption in Ukraine, saying "the political elite has to be destroyed here".

Russian media suggest that there are US citizens fighting for the rebels too.



Italy

Francesco F, 53, enrolled in the Azov battalion to "fight a good fight against Russia", the Italian weekly Panorama reported in an article (in Italian) in June.

Already doing business in Ukraine two years before the violence erupted, he said he had "found his home alongside Ukrainian nationalists" on the Maidan barricades.

Francesco, who also featured in a video report by Il Giornale, has a past in the far right in Italy, according to Panorama.

No caso deles, me parece uma disputa entre um líder estabelecido fascista e um aspirante a líder golpista fascista.

Isso se ele existir de fato como algo além de um personagem. Conversa muito estranha essa.

Como ainda não li tudo o que podia sobre essa questão vindo de fontes neutras (ou pelo menos das tendenciosas as quais eu conheça o discurso), ainda estou observando...

Marcando o tópico para futuras averiguações.

Porque tanta questão de mais democracia ? Mil vezes mais ter um antigo rei persa governando ou um Alexandre o Grande do que sei lá . a Dilma , o Bush .....


Alguém mais esperto que eu um dia disse que a democracia é a ditadura dos idiotas

O cara é só mais um idealista servindo de peão no tabuleiro do Putin. O leste ucraniano deve estar infestado desse tipo de gente.

Ele já serviu na Legião Estrangeira. Eu gostaria de saber por quanto tempo.

Em uma época meio apertada aqui, quando meu pai tinha acabado de morrer, eu estava afim de arriscar tudo e pensando seriamente em servir lá, para pegar cidadania francesa depois de cinco anos. Tinha um pouco a sede de aventura e a vontade de melhorar de vida na França, que não eram motivos tão idealistas e altruístas quanto os do Rafael.

O teste nem é tão complicado, mas é preciso se preparar bastante. Não é qualquer bundão que passa.

Surreal. Olhem o que a ideologia faz uma pessoa, brasileiro médio coxinha, apoiar. Em troca pela gratidão, "político chave" na Nova Ucrânia chama até o Obama de "anão político"!

Os coxas que gozaram com o porta-voz do ministério das relações-exteriores de Israel, quando chamou o Brasil de "anão diplomático" (que pegou tão mal que o novo presidente do país, Reuven Rivlin, até ligou à presidenta Dilma pedindo desculpas), devem estar agora fritando.

Excelente artigo que esmiúça isso e mostra outras merdas surreais nessa democracia livre da Rússia opressora:

INTERNATIONAL OBSERVER

The New Ukraine Is Run by Rogues, Sexpots, Warlords, Lunatics and Oligarchs

Prominent Ukrainian MP denounces Obama's weakness, calls him a 'shot-down pilot'

By Mikhail Klikushin | 01/14/15 8:05am

There were times in Ukraine’s recent history when even the country’s military brass were kneeling before the U.S. Literally. In June 2013, then-U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine John Tefft received the saber of the Ukrainian Cossack in the city of Kherson from a kneeling Ukrainian high-rank military official. Mr. Tefft nowadays is serving the country as an Ambassador to Russia where no such honors are even imaginable.

But that was then—a previous regime.

On the surface, today’s Ukraine is much more favorably disposed toward everything Western and everything American because of the exciting wind of transformations that swept through the Ukrainian political landscape last year. Its political culture looks modern, attractive, refined and European. For example, at the end of last year a new law was passed that allowed former citizens of other countries to participate in Ukrainian politics and even the government, in case they denounce their former citizenships. The reason given was the fight with notorious Ukrainian corruption. Apparently, in a country of more than 40 million people, Prime Minister Arseny Yatsenyuk (called “Rabbit” by his citizens) couldn’t find a dozen or so native-born yet not corrupt professionals for his government.

Now three former foreigners—ex-American Natalia Yaresko (Minister for Finance), ex-Lithuanian Aivaras Abromavičius (Minister For Economy and Trade) and ex-Georgian Alexander Kvitashvili (Minister for Public Health)—are firmly established in their new cabinets. They are just the beginning. They gave up their U.S. and European passports with only two benefits in return: a $200-a-month salary and the chance to build a prosperous new Ukraine.

In a strange twist of fate, the Ukrainian ministers during their meetings now have to speak hated Russian—former foreigners do not speak Ukrainian well enough and locals do not speak English at the level necessary for complicated discussions on how to save a Ukraine economy that is disappearing before their eyes.

The problems they are facing are overwhelming. The new minister for economy, Mr. Abromavičius, knows that the country is in fact bankrupt. “To expect that we are going to produce real as opposed to declarative incentive programs is unrealistic,” he declared. In other words, the new Ukrainian budget is nothing but a piece of paper. But without this piece of paper there will be no new money from the European Bank and the IMF.

The first steps he has taken so far are controversial.

On January 5, the new minister for economy appointed former Estonian Jaanika Merilo—a young dark-haired beauty—as his advisor on foreign investments, improvement of business climate in Ukraine, coordination of international programs and so on. Directly after her appointment, the young lady put online not her resume or a program for Ukrainian financial stabilization but a series of candid shots that display her long legs, plump lips and prominent cleavage. In some shots, she places a knife to her lips a la Angelina Jolie and sits on the chair a la Sharon Stone.

Ms. Merilo, too, forfeited her European passport in the hope of a better future for her new Motherland.

By law, double citizenship is not permitted for a Ukrainian governmental official, but, as often happens in Ukraine, for some there is always another way around. The governor of Dnepropetrovsk region, oligarch Igor Kolomoisky, for example, has three citizenships.

As exhilarating winds of change swept through the Ukrainian government, Western newspapers giddily reported the fact that after the last elections for the first time in decades there would be no Communists in the Ukrainian Parliament. But that means all possible organized opposition to the current president and prime minister is gone.

Instead, the new Rada has a big group of parliamentarians of very uncertain political loyalties and even dubious mental state—former warlords and street activists who distinguished themselves during street fights and tire burnings.

These government rookies are sometimes turning to strange ways of self-promotion, now within the walls of the Parliament.

One new face in the Rada—leader of the Right Sector ultra-nationalist party and former warlord Dmytro Yarosh—admitted in a January interview with Ukrainian TV that he caresses a real hand grenade in his pocket while inside the Rada. Because he is MP, the security personnel has no right to check his pockets. They just ask if he has anything dangerous on his person and he says no. The reason to have a hand grenade on his body is that there are too many enemies of Ukraine within the MP crowding him during the voting process. He is not afraid, of course. But when the time comes, he will use this grenade and with a bit of luck he will take a lot of them with him if he dies.

Ukrainian MPs Yuri Beryoza and Andrei Levus, also former warlords and members of radical parties, became notorious last December after publicly applauding the terrorist attack in the Russian city of Grozny—an attack in which 14 policemen were killed. “On our eastern borders our brothers are coming out from under Russia’s power. It’s normal. These are the allies of Ukraine,” said Mr. Beryoza. This is the same fellow who had earlier promised that the Ukrainian army would soon take Moscow. Andrei Levus proposed Russia withdraw all of her “punishers” from the “People’s Republic of Ichkeria” (i.e. Chechnya) immediately.

Another former warlord, former member of social-national party and today’s Ukrainian MP Igor Mosiychuk said to the journalists that Ukraine, “being in the state of war, must stimulate the opening of the second front in the Caucuses, in Middle Asia” against Russia. In the scandalous video, which has been viewed 2.5 million times, he unloaded an assault rifle into the portrait of the Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov ranting, “Ramzan, you have sent your dogs, traitors into our land. We have been killing them here and we will come after you. We will come after you to Grozny. We will help our brothers to free Ichkeria from such dogs like you. Glory to Ukraine! Glory to the free Ichkeria!”

Despite this bravado, the personal security for all three MPs had to be increased—at high cost to the cash-starved country—after the Chechen leader promised to bring them to justice in Russia for incitement of terrorism.

While it may be tempting to dismiss these words as the ravings of former warlords who have been traumatized by war, worrisome shifts of the political mindset have been appearing in the mainstream of the Ukrainian political establishment.

Anton Geraschenko is the poster boy of the next generation of Ukrainian politicians. He holds an important position as the advisor to the minister for internal affairs, executing the role of the Ministry’s spokesman. This 36-year-old, well-educated member of the Parliament is a familiar face on TV, and a darling of the nation’s political talk shows. He is well-spoken and gives elaborate interviews on every political subject to all major Ukrainian newspapers.

Last Friday, while on his trip to the U.S., Mr. Gerashchenko published two controversial posts on his Facebook page, which could be considered very revealing from the perspective of the changing mood in the Ukrainian political class toward the United States.

In the first, Mr. Gerashchenko praised a George Soros article in which the 84-year-old financier is “flying high” like an eagle “over the pettiness of Obama and other political dwarfs.” Mr. Gerashchenko blamed Mr. Obama and other “political dwarfs” for not realizing that “Putin’s actions towards Ukraine are the tectonic shifts in the world history, much bigger in scale than those that were the results of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 in New York and Washington.” According to Mr. Gerashchenko, George Soros lost all hope that “Barack Obama will give a chance to the people of the United States to give large-scale economical assistance to the people of Ukraine, not the miserable hand-outs that have been ten times less than the help that was given to Iraq or Afghanistan.” Mr. Gerashchenko vented his frustration at Mr. Obama for not giving Ukraine money on the scale of the Marshall Plan or the aid packages that were given to rebuild Japan after WWII or South Korea after the Korean War.

According to his post, Mr. Gerashchenko believes that the United States has the obligation to give to the Ukraine enough money so the people of “occupied Crimea and Donbass in a maximum of three or five years would dig tunnels and destroy walls and barbed-wire fences, bursting into the territory of prosperous Free Ukraine … looking for jobs, social assistance, high quality of living – as a counterweight to the Mordor which the Russian Federation will definitely have become” (‘total catastrophe’) under the leadership of “Putler.” (“Putler” being ‘Putin’ and ‘Hitler’ combined into one word—a popular new term among Ukraine’s new political class.)

The Facebook post by the young Ukrainian politician created an uproar in both Ukraine and Russia—but Western media preferred to look the other way.

Inspired by his sudden notoriety, Mr. Gerashchenko posted one more rant on the same subject later on the same day in which he elaborated his ideas even farther.

“Yes, Obama is a political dwarf because it looks like he does not grasp the full scale the consequences of Putin’s capture of Crimea. Because last spring and in the beginning of last summer Obama took the ‘ostrich’s position’ and preferred not to see the Putin’s aggression on the continental part of the Ukraine. In the U.S.A., Barack Obama for his indecisive actions and lost positions in foreign politics is called ‘lame duck’ which is analogous to our expression ‘shot-down pilot’. And this name is well deserved. Barack Obama will never be put in the same row with such great U.S. Presidents as Franklin Roosevelt or Ronald Reagan. And even with Bill Clinton …”

In his second post Mr. Gerashchenko went on to say that he was expressing not only his own feelings but the attitude of a significant part of the Ukrainian population, “which considers Obama’s actions unworthy of the leader of the most powerful nation in the world, the one that made Ukraine give up its nuclear status … Instead of decisive actions, from March on we have seen nothing but declarations that the White House is ‘very concerned,’ expresses its concerns’ and also ‘deeply worried’ by the situation in our country.”

By Mr. Gerashchenko’s light, President Putin’s entire operation in Crimea and Donbass was possible only because Mr. Putin knew that Mr. Obama would never risk any strong moves to stop him. According to this star of Ukrainian politics, America gave “only” $1 billion to Ukraine but Mr. Gerashchenko and the like view this as a pittance. Instead, they want a big slice of the hundreds of billions that the U.S. has spent on war from 2001-2014 in Afghanistan, Iraq and Pakistan.

These revealing and troubling posts were deleted within hours on the same day they appeared. Deleted or not, Mr. Gerashchenko, as well as some significant number of Ukrainian politicians, rant at Mr. Obama for not doing what George Soros wants him to do—immediately spend $50 billion of U.S. and E.U. taxpayers’ money on building an immediate paradise in Ukraine. George Soros’ motives could be pragmatic, of course. Some evil tongues have been saying that the financier’s arguments for the bailout of a falling Ukrainian economy by the U.S. and European taxpayers have roots not in his love for freedom around the world. They say that he has a lot of the Ukrainian government’s bonds in his portfolio and in the case of Ukraine’s national default he will lose billions.

Ironically, the biggest winner of a significant and prompt infusion of Western money into Ukraine would be the hated “Putler.” Just last week, Russia, strapped for cash itself as the ruble plummets, started to spread rumors that it is considering demanding early repayment of its $3 billion 2014 loan to Ukraine because the conditions of the loan demand such a step in the event that the national debt of Ukraine exceeds 60 percent of its GDP. By now the national debt of Ukraine is around 70 percent of its GDP and the prognosis is that by the end of this year it will be around 90 percent of its GDP. If any significant amount of money is given to Ukraine, Russia will immediately start sucking out a big part of it as Ukrainian gas and other energy bills will finally be paid on time … to Russia.

Mr. Gerashchenko’s scandalous FB posts are gone, but the questions raised by them still remain. Will the Ukrainian political class turn away from the U.S. and the West if the generosity of the U.S. taxpayers does not match the nebulous expectations of the reformers in the Ukrainian government? Are the Ukrainians ready to rely mostly on themselves on the long and painful journey of building their own independent nation? Amid all the reform talk and the importing of attractive foreign “advisors,” one cannot but wonder if it’s nothing more than camouflage for the same old Ukrainian game—to convince the world to give, as Mr. Gerashchenko’s first Facebook post put it, just one more “large-scale economical assistance.”

O cara pagou para ter uma cicatriz igual a do Kratos na cara

 

[100 FISTS]

Parece que ele acredita estar encarnando algum personagem , e acredita seriamente nisso. Largou a família no Brasil pra ir arriscar a vida em um conflito estrangeiro apenas por "amor à Rússia".
Se ele não for louco da cabeça, muito inteligente não é .

Brasileiro que lutou ao lado de separatistas pró-Rússia contra a Ucrânia está preso em SP condenado por tráfico de drogas

Rafael Lusvarghi, 37 anos, foi voluntário de tropas que lutavam pela independência de Donetsk e Luhansk, em 2014 e 2015. Preso e condenado por terrorismo pelas autoridades ucranianas, ele foi solto e voltou a ser detido em 2021 no Brasil, mas por esconder drogas e munições.

A história desse cara é muito bizarra; de PM, virou Black Bloc naqueles protestos de 2013 e foi lutar pelos separatistas russos na Ucrânia.

Se não me engano ele é ligado a Quarta Teoria do Dugin.
