Text of the page (random words):
e my face but its the face of my nation a statement which has an additional sense for those who know about what is widely beleived as an attempt on his life via poisoning last september he looks a lot worse today than he did before the incident jushchenko is not one among that sad line of ego driven megalomaniacal leaders of revolutions kyiv and most of ukraine is covered today in orange the cities of lutsk lviv ivano frankivsk khmelnytstkyj vynnytsja and kyiv have all passed resolutions rejecting the validity of sunday s vote and more of such resolutions are coming against all the most negative stereotypes in the west about ukrainians people here are proving with each passing moment that they are not a nation of thieves and bandits nor of the politically apathetic they are instead proving that they have been a battered nation whose time has finally come to rise and fight for its dignity pora now s the time and it is just fantastic that all of this is happening on the first anniversary of the rose revolution in the republic of georgia that uprooted the corrupt oligarchy of ex communist party chiefs and soviet bosses sheverdnadze stepped down last year on november 23 but the ukrainian officials are proving more stubborn perhaps they are proving one stereotype about ukrainians true but so are the millions who are demonstrating against them with that the situation is getting tense i am once again back in pidhajtsi and i have heard all day long people asking whether if the shooting has begun nothing of the sort has happened yet but there are all kinds of reports about this and that indication that provocation is about to begin the authorities are rather openly mulling over using force to clear kyiv bush has warned against this and has strongly urged putin to back off the spectre of the cold war seems to on the haunt especially as the eu early on just threw up its arms in disgust germany s schroeder also made a statement today rejecting the legitimacy of authorities actions in ukraine and urging putin to keep his distance and then the soldiers the damned police russian special police in kyiv and the authorities here claim that they believe ukraine is not russia which is the title of a book published by kuchma this summer if they fear that they can t rely on the ukrainian police and soldiers to potect them how can they claim to be the legitimate power in this country and how else is one to read the situation other than that putin s government is determined to keep the ukrainian masses whether ukrainian russian jews romani etc impoverished and pinned under the control of a corrupt oligarchy ok enough of the polemicizing here is a round up of some news and rumors from today and last night followed by photos in kyiv the flag pole in the center of the central independence square is flying a ukrainian flag and below it an orange flag a whopping 19 international observers were actually able to get into voting centers in the eastern state of luhansk to do their jobs luhansk had 2 000 voting centers my uncle from pidhajtsi led a group of observers to donetsk he had a video camera with him he videotaped a man voting without a passport and voter registration my uncle protested against this violation the response was that he and fellow observers were minorly assaulted removed from the voting center and the camera was broken but at least the tape made it back to the our ukraine offices in kyiv jushchenko has claimed to have and our ukraine is preparing a list of 11 000 violations starting last night thousands were outside the presidential administration protesting which triggered the arrival of russian special forces especially after kyiv mayor omelchenko switched sides and came out for jushchenko with that it is uncertain that either the army or kyivan police will help authorities but they might and all day today people remained at the administration buildings oleksandr moroz has claimed that there are upwards of 3 million already in the capital this conflicts with western reporting which gives a much lower figure i think that moroz is exaggerating although he in general is a very reliable fellow no doubt the western reports i have read have underestimated the number of people in the capital let s say there are 1 million and more are coming keep in mind kyiv itself is a city of 4 million a bus of 40 people left from pidhajtsi today heading for kyiv and there already are a significant number of fellows from pidhajtsi in the capital who went yesterday and the day before by bus and private car some of them report many stops by police along the way i spoke with my third cousin in kyiv by cellphone yesterday yesterday and today in pidhajtsi were huge demonstrations by small town standards at least 1 000 out of a pop of about 4 000 within the town itself pidhajtsi and connected villages altogether are about 7 000 today the demo turned angry people began naming those who had agitated for janukovych yesterday there was a picket after the demo in front of the police station demanding that those officers present who had turned over their right to vote in accord with the budget worker scandal come outside and explain themselves then today after the demo a few headed to picket in front of the offices of the janukovych campaign in pidhajtsi another bus left from pidhajtsi for kyiv after the demo also after which people pensioners workers business owners etc simply came to the fellow organizing the buses to and fro the capital to give him money for to support the guys on the trip to kyiv altogether they donated 3 000 hryvnjas a huge sum in ukraine up to 10 months worth of wages for a good job well over a years worth for those with less reliable work and those on pensions there was an emotional bon voyage people said go fight for us and sang the national anthem no doubt the same thing has happened elsewhere and will continue to rumors floating about kuchma possibly declarring a state of emergency then a humurous anecdote that i got from a ternopil newspaper apparently there are gangs of yanukovych supporters going around kyiv slashing tires of the cars of jushchenko supporters many jushchenko supporters have tied orange ribbons to their car s antennas or sideview mirrors etc well apparently a man parked his car who then got out carrying a pro janukovych sign pro jushchenko folks tied an orange ribbon to his car and later a gang of pro janukovych supporters slashed his tires the fellow was later interviewed and he said i don t mind what they did what they are doing is right and one more thing the snow is falling hard in western and other parts of ukraine it is cold the winds are blowing hard or really were today but the heat of the moment is keeping us warm and the mutual support of people in struggle is keeping spirits high people are opening their homes in kyiv to those coming from the provences and the solidarity the smiling the mutual affection being shown is simply fantastic and people are celebrating they re singing folksongs at night in the pubs but also at the demonstrations and also on the streets walking to and fro from demos and no doubt a significant amount of wine beer and horylka is being consumed in many places both to keep warm but also to celebrate and at least it is being consumed with an air of hopefulness and not the desperation that has driven so many to drink in this country these past 13 years please everyone keep in mind what is happening here tell friends write letters to papers and call senators and representatives if you have the energy and tell them that there is no question about the situation here tell them that ukraine already has a new president viktor jushchenko posted by stefan 7 10 am 0 comments sent nov 23 2004 or day 2 of or ukraine s rose revolution is well underway this is being described as a national uprising here is what i have seen today writing to you from the city of ternopil pop approximately 250 000 i arrived from pidhajtsi at 12 pm all along the way from pidhajtsi to ternopil one could see on the streets of the various villages and in the bus stops throughout the countryside people wearing orange arm bands orange colored jackets hats scarves gloves in one village someone had painted the entire fence encircling their property orange once in ternopil i saw warms of people wearing orange orange is the color of jushchenko s flag i started walking the short distance from the bus station to the town center to teatral na ploshcha theater square where people have been gathering demonstrating since last night all along the road were people coming and going from the meeting carrying ukrainian flags carrying pora flags carrying signs and banners and the flags of the jushchenko campaign and the flag of our ukraine his party people shouted jushchenko at random sometimes the shouts caught on and turned into the chants of the many ju shchen ko pre si dent groups of students with pora and tak banners around their arms where walking to and fro the center singing new lyrics to folk songs all chiding janukovych some of them chanted ju shcen ko pre si dent ja nu ko vych im po tent in the center on theater square is a constant presence of at least 5 10 000 i amend this figure most people after the or told me that the size of the crowd was more like 20 000 daily and looking at my video footage and photos again i agree with people constantly coming and going they were here yesterday they came back at 9am while many diehards stayed the night and every side street to and fro the center is crawling with more people in orange no doubt ternopil is not the only city having demos in fact i have seen on the opposition news channel 5 a map indicating where demos are happening in major cities every major city in ukraine has a demo happening only three of them are having major pro janukovych demonstrations dnipropetrovsk donetsk luhansk kharkiv and of course in sevastapol and simferopol but in each are taking place pro juschenko rallies albeit smaller there are also counter pro janukovych rallies happening in many cities where the majority is for jushchenko and there are townhall meetings and demos happening in smaller towns and villages everywhere kyiv is overrun with jushchenko demonstrators the cenral independence square is full but its been full now since sunday night but people keep arriving every major boulevard heading into the center is crowded khreshchatyk is overrun hrushevs kyj street is overrun etc and most importantly of all the building of the verkhovna rada or national parlaiment is nearly completely surrounded by people who are shouting jushcenko president inside the parlaiment are deputies who are trying to pass a resolution nullifying the vote for the most part only opposition deputies are present the speaker of the parlaiment lytvyn is presiding and is overall cooperating lytvyn is widely considered a slippery character who slides along the political spectrum in ukraine depending on where the power is because of this people say that lytvyn is a litmus test you want to know where things are heading in ukraine watch his behavior one can hear from inside the parlaiment the shouts of the thousands of people from the opposition tv it looked like at least 5 10 000 alone around the parlaiment outside at one point those outside started singing the national anthem i was in a cafe eating lunch talking with some people i just met about what americans know about the situation in ukraine when those demonstrators started to sing everyone in the cafe stood and sang the national anthem i saw an old man with a tear on his cheek this is an emotional experience for all a national uprising is taking place the vast majority of ukrainians and i mean this in a civic sense meaning citizens of ukraine regardless of ethnicity are voting once again today the majority know which candidate is a pluralist who is open to all their diverse interests cultures and dreams most importantly of all they know who is the populist who will fight to end corruption and will fight to reform an unequal power structure and who will fight to redistribute the wealth of a rich country whose people are poor but proud today ukrainians are indeed harvesting oranges in their own country because they are tired of having to leave home and harvest oranges elsewhere stefan ps as i write you at 5 pm jushchenko is addressing those deputies at and the nation from the parlaiment pps i just read that a pro janukovych rally in cherkasy was overrun by jushcenko supporters and has turned into a pro jushchenko rally the same seems to be happening in kharkiv please look at jushchenko s our ukraine website which has an english versiosn and constant updates and photos of what is going on http www razom org ua and one other thing things seem farely calm no reports of provocation etc yet yanukovych declared winner sent minutes later i just heard been sitting at this computer for too long the bastard government of ukraine has declared janukovych winner in the election absurd the fight now really is on to get the election nullified the president must initiate the nullification not the parlaiment this according to ukraine s absurdly undemocratic constitution that gives all the power to the president i like to call urkaine s system a limited presidential dictatorship yushchenko takes presidential oath again minutes later but this time it was a short article from the ap kiev ukraine opposition leader viktor yushchenko took a symbolic presidential oath of office in ukraine s parliament chamber tuesday defiantly claiming power as tens of thousands of his supporters massed outside yushchenko approached the podium and took the oath after a special parliamentary session had officially ended the russian news agency interfax reported some 191 lawmakers had gathered for the special session to consider an opposition request to vote no confidence in the central election commission and declare the official results of sunday s run off election between yushchenko and prime minister viktor yanukovych invalid support from at least 226 members of the 450 seat parliament was needed for the motion to succeed yushchenko had earlier claimed victory in the runoff even though the commission declared yanukovych the winner the opposition has said the election was rigged posted by stefan 6 35 am 0 comments tuesday november 22 2005 sent nov 22 2004 or day 1 of or greetings on
