European Solidarity, Poltava

🔴 A year of political repression. A year of illegal sanctions.

On February 12, 2025, the so-called “sanctions” were imposed against Petro Poroshenko.

Without a trial.

Without evidence.

Based on classified papers and outright fakes.

The submission was prepared by the head of the State Financial Monitoring Service of Ukraine, Philip Pronin — in fact, rewritten fabrications from Telegram channels and Portnov’s materials. The document was hidden under the “SSC” stamp, and the decision was made behind the scenes.

Within a year, everything fell into place.

Those who voted for “sanctions” themselves became figures in corruption scandals.

Those who accused Poroshenko of “withdrawing funds” discussed schemes to steal hundreds of millions from Energoatom.

The country did not receive justice — but blackouts, chaos in the energy sector, and political persecution.

The real reasons are obvious:
▪️ to eliminate the main political competitor
▪️ to strike at the "European Solidarity"
▪️ to take revenge for the fight against corruption and pro-Russian schemes

These were not sanctions.

This was an attempt to destroy the opposition.

But you cannot abolish democracy with sanctions.

We are living in a new geopolitical reality. Digital technologies, including AI, generate economic & societal potential. But the rapid evolvement of AI & other emerging technologies also bring challenges to democracies, which need to be fully addressed. #DefenseOfDemocracy #CDS23
