Dear comrades and friends!


The decree of President Zelensky and the decision of the National Security and Defense Council to stop broadcasting the TV channels 112 Ukraine, NewsOne and ZIK adopted to please and at the control of the Washington and on the basis of sanctions imposed by the White House against an individual, is a gross violation of the Constitution of Ukraine, human rights and freedoms. These sanctions are against the people of Ukraine, which aimed at suppressing dissent, their right to receive reliable and independent information about the real situation in the country and in order to conceal the crimes of the authorities. The leader of the Communist Party Petro Symonenko mentioned this, assessing Zelensky's decree.


“This is a continuation of the policy of decommunization, as a result of which the truth of our history is being destroyed, the link between generations is being severed. This is a course towards the de-legitimization of Ukraine as a sovereign state, including through the most severe censorship in the information sphere, through persecution and terror against journalists and all those who disagree with the anti-popular policy of the puppet regime of the oligarch-Nazis in Ukraine” Petro Symonenko is convinced.


According to Petro Symonenko, the decree signed by Zelensky based on the decision of the NSDC, which plays the role of the political Gestapo, has nothing to do with the protection of national interests.


“Under the pretext of American sanctions against individual citizens of Ukraine and “security concerns” of the country, the pennywise dictatorship is being established” mentioned Petro Symonenko.


“We have witnessed how the Gamma TV channel was banned for the word of truth, the oldest in Ukraine Rabochaya Gazeta highlighting real problems and needs of working people was closed. How the news agency "Golos.ua" is being persecuted for my congratulations to the veterans on the 75th anniversary of the Victory of the Soviet people over Nazi Germany" the leader of the Communist Party of Ukraine recalled.


The leader of the Communist Party of Ukraine stressed that the ruling regime and the entire system of power, as a result of the armed coup in February 2014, finally went bankrupt. The latest decisions of the Zelensky regime related to the ban on truthful information aimed at glorifying Nazi criminals and Hitler's accomplices, humiliating Soviet soldiers and home front workers who forged the great Victory, refusing Ukrainian citizens to please the transnational pharmacological mafia and being vaccinated against coronavirus for a "small share" those drugs that have shown their effectiveness, the introduction of unaffordable tariffs against the background of meager salaries and pensions with multimillion-dollar incomes of officials - all this is unconditional genocide. This is a crime against the people of Ukraine, against the present and future generations.


“Therefore, dictatorship and war, 'guns instead of butter', physical and moral terror are the only, as it seems to them, way of their own salvation. But this is an illusion. As soon as the stand-up comedians from President Office play a performance staged from across the ocean and destroy the remnants of the Soviet economic, cultural and spiritual heritage, return Ukraine to the state of a “wild field”, they will be thrown out as unnecessary, like political rubbish” said Petro Symonenko.


Petro Symonenko also called on all forces of the Ukrainian society to show solidarity in the struggle for the word of truth, and also appealed to the progressive world community represented by representatives of the left and workers' parties in the European Parliament, PACE, in the national parliaments of foreign countries to support the Ukrainian people in the right to receive reliable and truthful information.
