Main task for Ukrainian opposition
Main task for Ukrainian oppositional politicians is the achievement of the freedom for Yuliya Tymoshenko and others, also oppositional politicians, and the possibility of their participation in the next parliamentary elections in September, 2012. But instead of it Ukrainian people can see on the TV and can read in the newspapers about different versions of the oppositional parties' unities, about discussions who will be number 1, 2, 3 etc. in its elective list. So these oppositional politicians (or so-called oppositional?) don't try to achieve the freedom for their colleagues, though all oppositional politicians must achieve it every day, using their deputies' and political rights and possibilities, if they really want to be strong opposition in Ukraine. But oppositional politicians (who are free and aren't in the prisons!) think about parliamentary elections and about their own participation in the elections. Some politicians say that they will achieve to free Tymoshenko after parliamentary elections, when they will become deputies and will have oppositional majority in the parliament. But why after elections and not now, when they are also deputies? Then deputies from Tymoshenko's party "Batkivshchyna" say about number 1 of Y.Tymoshenko in their elective list. But Yuliya Tymoshenko is in the prison now and according to Ukrainian Constitution she can't take part in any elections till she is in the prison and till she is admitted guilty in the crime. So Y. Tymoshenko must be free to take part in the elections! If these oppositional leaders will be only in the elective list, but indeed they will be in the jail, it will look like some cynical farse of other politicians.If politicians are really oppositional, they must fight for their oppositional colleagues, who are in the jail now. How can some oppositional politicians think only about their own next five years of the deputy's being in the parliament, while some their oppositional colleagues are in the prison or abroad, getting political asylum there? How can some oppositional politicians say about political repressions of the present Ukrainian power and also prepare to take part in the parliamentary elections in the same time, while ex-Prime Minister Tymoshenko and another oppositional politicians are in the jail? Is this different opposition toward present power in Ukraine or what?
