14 bloggers who whitewashed President’s Office in early days of "Mindichgate". VIDEO
Communications specialist and founder of the initiative "How not to become a vegetable" Oksana Moroz released a video in which she talked about 14 bloggers who spread " OP manuals" from the beginning of "Mindichgate".
This was reported by Censor.NET.
"I gathered together those who spread the theses from the "OP manuals" during the summer protests and now.
There are 14 of them. It is noteworthy that most of them are generally referred to as experts/advisers, etc. They are experts on everything. ...
Note: I deliberately did not include Leshchenko, Bezuhla, Lytvyn, or Podoliak here. Only those who are supposedly independent experts," she said.
Who are we talking about?
Moroz first mentions the owner of the YouTube channel "Iceland" Vladymyr Petrov, and his colleague Serhii Ivanov, as well as the channel's political commentator Valentyn Hladkikh.
Next is Vladymyr Zolkin, host of the programme "Pros and Cons" on the TV channel "We Are Ukraine+".
Petrov, commenting on Mindich's escape from Ukraine on the air, said that NABU allegedly allowed him to leave on purpose.
Moroz also mentions Ivan Us, a candidate of economic sciences, and Ivan Popov, an expert at the United Ukraine centre.
Journalist Natalia Moseychuk invites individuals to identify bloggers from the "OP pool".
The list also includes Piotr Kulpa, chairman of the board of the Republican Fund of Ukraine, whom Moroz calls "a kind of Vladimir Petrov, only of Polish origin and slightly different in orientation."
Moseychuk invited Taras Zahorodniy, a partner of the National Anti-Crisis Group, and Viktor Kurtev, an energy expert.
Blogger and political scientist Yurii Romanenko, Moroz claims, periodically provides his YouTube channel as a platform for "people like Kurtev and discusses key points of the manual with them."
The list includes Vladislav Olenchenko, co-founder of the analytical platform "Mykhailivsky Club," political adviser Oleksandr Kharabin, and political strategist Oleh Posternak.
"I have shown you those who either worked systematically on the topic of NABU and SAPO or got involved in Mindichgate on a situational basis," she added.
