Berezovsky blasts Ukrainians

Berezovsky blasts Ukrainians for their choice of president
This address by Russian millionaire Boris Berezovsky, who is living in exile in London after becoming an enemy of Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, was written in an emotional and aggressive style, using prison slang and other expressions that may be offensive. The translation only gives a vague idea of what he meant to say.


I am addressing you, the people on the margins [of Russia], to every one of you who supported [Victor] Yanukovych. You elected a crime boss as your Hetman. Moreover, he’s a young brother of the Big Brother.

I am convinced that this is not for long.

However, I cannot figure it out: how many mega-liters of slave blood must flow in the veins of each one of you, to be able to believe in this douche bag in the age of the Internet, the Large Hadron Collider and genetic engineering!

Stick your feather up your a-hole! You’ll be swooping into the stinking “gaping heights” of your past.

Your gene pool has survived worse genocides than this. But do remember in your mind-boiling dive that, while your chief Cossack is a crime boss, you will be living on the margins, not in Ukraine.

P.S. I would like to especially address the leader of democratic world, U.S. President [Barack] Obama and the ideologist of the modern Russian obscurantism [Vladimir] Zhirinovsky, who did not take direct part in the voting, but were among the first people to congratulate Yanukovych on his victory.

Dear gentlemen: I don’t perceive as accidental your solidarity to recognize a crime boss as the president of a great European country.

In the autumn of 2004, during the Orange Revolution, the political beau monde of the USA found out from Fox News and CNN reports about the existence in the center of Europe an independent state of almost 50 million people. But for some reason, they’re still convinced that the democratic Iraq and Afghanistan are more important than a democratic Ukraine.

Mr. Zhirinovsky, you’re much more consistent. You have never recognized Ukraine as independent.

I am asking you, Mr. Obama and Mr. Zhirinovsky, to remember the phrase of FranÚois de La Rochefoucauld: “A politician is able to look forward only as far as he is able to look back.” Then you will shed your illusions about the “reset” button, as well as doubts that the future is in the hands of the Ukrainian, not marginal people.

It does not benefit you, dear sirs and word-wise politicians, to neglect history.

Well, I wouldn't say it was harsh, but it is true.

I find it hard to distinguish the facts so far in this election. Both canidates are claimed to be pro-russia...i just dont know.

So for me im not taking a side until this plays out and the fog of war has been lifted.

Better yet, if he had the opportunity to run for Presidency in either country, he would sing like a bird to get votes, yet when kicked out from Mother Russia the guy seems all huffy and puffy. For a tough guy he is kind of lucky to be alive, I wouldn't want to have Putin as an enemy.

In short, more B/S from those who want to sound cool. That does NOT mean he is wrong, but it does mean that he is not in a position to pass judgment.
