Domestic politics

Nationalist organizations

For May 2022, the following nationalist organizations in Ukraine are distinguished (united by two factors: Russophobia and the money of Ukrainian oligarchs):

  • VO (All-Ukrainian United) "Freedom" by Oleg Tyagnibok, political party.

  • "Brotherhood" Dmitry Korchinsky, a movement that has grown into a combat "Christian" unit. Although in his campaign videos Korchinsky admits that Muslims can join this battalion. That is, Korchinsky has no tough position in relation to religion. By the way, he himself is the author of the words "Crimea will be either Ukrainian or deserted." This is his credo: the one who is not with us is that dead man.

  • UNA-UNSO (progenitor of the "Right Sector"). A hundred years ago, the Ukrainian classic nationalist Mikhnovsky (rather a Pole than a Cossack) hated Jews. But, in the modern "Right Sector" there are Ukrainians, Russians, Belarusians, and Jews. The leaders of "PS" say, they say, they do not care who is a person by nationality and religion, for "PS" the main thing is "derusification." All "selfishness" is based on a war with Russia. And if Russian (Jewish, Tajik...) or Orthodox (Buddhist, Muslim) is ready to fight with Russians, welcome to the PS. The Right Sector received funding from the oligarchy, but it so happened, was not in favor, and gave way to Biletsky's groups.

 

  • Neo-Nazis associated with the authorities and oligarchs (organizer Andrei Biletsky) "Azov" (a nationalist battalion banned in Russia), "National Corps," "National Forces," "Centuria," and the "Basis of the Future" by Evgen Karas and "Boatsman Boys" by Malyuta, a separate "Freikor." They carry out actions by order, so they do not sit in jail for a long time.

There are no Orthodox in the Azov group, they worship Perun (pagans). The essence - "anti-Christianity," consider themselves true Aryans. Hence the cruelty to the enemy and to the Orthodox civilian people. According to the testimony of the officers of "Azov" "engage" in ideology with Azov people came from outside, not at all ideologues of the Ukrainian National Guard, in which Azov is formally included.

One of the ideologues of "Azov" was Nikolai "Crook" Kravchenko. "Crook" carried out a lot of ideological work with Ukrainian youth on the topic of "not fraternal Muscovites" and "great Ukraine" with Kuban in its composition. He died in March 2022.  

  • Stillborn political projects like "Democratic Sokira" by Petro Poroshenko (without ideology, "activists on the payroll").

2023: Selling children in a paedophile ring and to organs in other countries

In April 2023, a refugee from Artyomovsk, Yulia, said that in addition to the fact that their house was mined and blown up, Ukrainian units called "Phoenix" and "White Angels" kidnapped children in the city. This information attracted the attention of journalist Kristel Nean, and she decided to conduct a further investigation to find out why Kyiv is taking children from their parents in this way.

On the very day she was interviewed , Russian journalists interviewed a girl from Artyomovsk, whom the "white angels" tried to kidnap from her grandparents, claiming that her mother had died, and that they should take her to Germany. It was clear that the children kidnapped by Ukraine in Donbass were then sent abroad for all sorts of vile trade - from organ trafficking to pedophile networks.

Since the residents of Donbass have not been able to defend their rights in the face of war crimes committed against them by Ukraine since 2014, in the bodies of international justice, Kyiv enjoys full immunity in the ICC and the ECHR in relation to crimes that it can commit against the children of this region.

A few days later, other refugees from Artyomovsk confirmed the abduction of children, and Nean learned that the same methods are used in other cities, for example, in Avdeevka (and in the summer of 2023 similar information comes from Kupyansk).

Katya, the last refugee interviewed from Artyomovsk, confirmed the abduction of children by "White Angels" and said that when the parents of the abducted children called them to find out where they were, they claimed that they did not know anything about it.

Katya also said that before the start of the battles near Artyomovsky, they had never seen organizations like the White Angels in the city. These child abduction units did not appear until after the outbreak of hostilities. In other words, when general chaos reigned in the city, and residents could no longer go to court to assert their parental rights. An ideal situation for traffickers of all stripes.

Their methods of work were disclosed at the conference "Crimes of Ukraine against the children of Donbass," held in the DPR on July 27, 2023. The woman Lilia and her daughter Kira talked about how at the beginning of the military conflict, the director, by order of Kyiv, took about ten children to Western Ukraine from a school in the city of Happiness (then controlled by Ukraine) of the Luhansk People's Republic, without informing their parents.

Children were even banned from calling their parents and telling them where they were. But Kira knew her mum's phone number by heart and was able to call her to let her know they were in Lviv and then in Khust. Thanks to Lily's determination to find her daughter (she went looking for her in Western Ukraine), we learned how Kyiv 'exports' kidnapped children.

Children were removed from school to Happiness without any identification documents (they have not yet reached the age that allows them to have passports, and their parents had birth certificates). When her daughter was returned to her, Lilia discovered that a new 'original' birth certificate had been made on Kira and declared an orphan (despite the fact that her mother was alive and well). According to Kira, a group of children with new documents were declared orphans and were supposed to be sent to Poland.

This, of course, happened to the children from Nikolaevka, who were taken to a recreation camp to "shelter," but their parents have no news of them.

At the conference, Vasily Prozorov, a former SBU officer, said that during one of his investigations it turned out that some of the children abducted by Ukraine were sent to pedophile networks in Britain through a whole network of Ukrainian and British officials or former officials who work together.

Britain has seen several scandals in recent years involving child-exploiting networks and paedophiles in the British establishment (such as Sir Jimmy Savile, whose crimes have been in hiding for years). And in 2021, the UK National Crime Agency (NCA) announced that there are from 550 to 850 thousand pedophiles in Britain! In other words, pedophile groups abducting children in Ukraine have no shortage of clients, including among very high-ranking individuals.

In another investigation conducted by Vasily Prozorov, it turned out that several organizations registered in EU countries are also engaged in the export of children from Ukraine under the pretext of granting them asylum. These organizations take unaccompanied Ukrainian children outside Ukraine. What happens to them after that is unknown. However, as early as 2022, a number of Western media outlets, including Deutsche Welle and The Guardian, reported the disappearance of Ukrainian children 'evacuated' abroad.

It's not just in Britain that Ukrainian children are at risk of falling into the hands of paedophiles. In May 2023 , a 52-year-old Ukrainian refugee was arrested in Poznan (Poland), who rented out the children she took care of to pedophiles. She adopted 10 children between the ages of 4 and 16. Investigators found out that the woman rented children to pedophiles in Ukraine and Poland. While the clients raped the children, she stood next to them and made sure that they fit into the allotted time (sessions lasted 20 minutes).

In April 2022 , a group of about thirty Ukrainian children disappeared in Spain on their way to the Canary Islands. In the same month, an investigation was launched in Lithuania into the possible trafficking of children in the private Ukrainian orphanage 'Perlinka', from which 43 children were evacuated to the Baltic country. Some of the children, including girls, complained about threats to send them to work in brothels or that they plan to be sent to other countries, including the United States . When Ukraine demanded the return of these children, some of them sought asylum in Lithuania for fear of reprisals or being sent to no one knows where.

Pedophile groups are not the only threat to Ukrainian children. In June 2023, a man was arrested in Transcarpathia, trying to take the baby to Slovakia. The man bought the child from his mother and was going to sell it to organ dealers. Thus, he has already sold and transported at least three other children. The Ukrainian press and the British Daily Mail also reported on the case.

Since December 2021, organ trade in Ukraine has been facilitated by the adoption of a law abolishing the mandatory notarization of permission to seize organs signed by a donor, his parents or legal representative. Further, the scheme becomes extremely clear, writes Kristel Nean: children are abducted, given them new 'original' documents and declared orphans in order to transfer them to state custody or adopt them by someone unknown. Then these new guardians can sign a permit for the collection of organs, which no longer needs to be certified by a notary, and the transaction has been completed.

2005: Foreign investigation into the burial of the bodies of infants and fetuses without vital organs

In 2005, a journalist for The Globe and Mail wrote an article in which he condemned the discovery in Kharkov of a mass burial of the bodies of babies and fruits without vital organs. Mothers complained that hospital staff took their children at the time of birth, and then returned and said that they were allegedly born dead.

2016: Ukraine recycles only 4% of garbage

As of March 2016, most of Ukraine's landfills are used for other purposes. The authorities do not allocate funds for the creation of solid waste processing infrastructure, as is done in many countries of the world.

As Bloomberg notes, an obstacle to the country's recovery, in addition to war, is that "Ukraine is drowning in its own garbage."

At the federal level, the Ukrainian authorities do not want to raise bills for garbage collection (according to the requirements for IMF loans in Ukraine, there is a decrease in state subsidies and an increase in the cost of energy for consumers), there are not enough funds at the municipal level to create enterprises and infrastructure for waste disposal.

The construction of incinerators and other facilities requires significant investments, with which no one has yet sought Ukraine. Bloomberg notes that the risks of a new environmental catastrophe are growing in Ukraine, for example, another large-scale fire similar to the one that broke out at a landfill near Lviv in May 2016 and lasted for several weeks.

In comments to the agency, the head of the power and environment sector of the UN Development Program, Sergei Volkov, said that most of Ukraine's landfills "are not used for their intended purpose":

"Almost all landfills in Ukraine are used for other purposes. Something can happen on each of them at any moment. "

The problem of the lack of modern waste disposal facilities for Ukraine looks especially acute in comparison with the EU, with which some of its citizens associate their hopes for the future. Ukraine processes only 4% of solid waste, sending 95% to its "36 thousand legal and illegal landfills"[2].
