Chronicle of a coup and neocolonization

It is four years since a small mobilisation in the Euromaida took place in Kiev. Some mobilizations have privileged access to the circles of the elites for favoring the hegemonic cultural system or the great symbolic capital of those involved in the mobilization.

According to Pierre Bourdieu, symbolic capital are the properties inherent to each individual: fame, good taste, authority, prestige, reputation, honor, etc. Bordieu summarizes all this in the well-known and recognized economic and cultural capital.

The participants of the initial Maidan had two characteristics. As a result, the mobilization quickly became media and became a great mobilization. The West and a part of the corrupt political elite at its service quickly understood it as an opportunity to give a soft coup in its favour. However, the Ukrainian Government did not give any excuses for carrying out the plan. There appeared in mid-February 2014 some snipers murdering protesters and police officers. As expected, all the blame and media pressure fell on the neck of the Ukrainian government. In this context, the member countries of the opposition, the government and representatives of the countries of the European Union (EU) that participated in the mediation signed an agreement. It was in vain, the following day the opposition failed to comply with the agreement and struck a coup d'état. Barack Obama, in statements to CNN, said they had been the intermediaries of regime change. In a moment, the West legitimized the coup.

Several studies have shown that snipers were members of the opposition, which has not yet been defined. In 2014, the Estonian Foreign Minister, Urmas Paet, told Catherine Ashton, head of European Union (EU) foreign policy, but
the media did not care. New data
now appears

Several studies have shown that snipers were members of the opposition, which has not yet been defined. In 2014, this was communicated to Estonian Foreign Minister Urmas Paet, European Union Foreign Policy Officer (EU) Catherine Ashton, but not to the media. New data has now appeared. Some of the snipers have made statements in a documentary on Italian television and in an in-depth interview on Macedonian television. Snipers explain how they shot the two sides with the intention of creating chaos, for which they were hired. They were Georgians, but they were also Lithuanians, and the head was a former American military. The names, images and tests are many, but the media do not mean anything, the authorities do not want to investigate and, above all, the West does not want to make known the new forms of coup d’état of the twenty-first century; better if people think that the blows do not exist in the territories that the “developed world” wants to control.

Meanwhile, Ukraine ' s neo-colonization process has accelerated: foreign companies have bought cheap land and raw materials in stock. Citizens have lost 38% of the average wage since 2013 (EUR 232 per month), public utility tariffs have multiplied by 5 or 10 and food and energy prices have doubled or tripled. On the other hand, Ukraine has reached a high point in international classifications of corruption, which has spread to every corner as political violence. The murders committed by the extreme right-wing Ukrainian nationalists remain unpunished as they have multiplied. The precarious freedom of expression disappears and the views expressed in the private sphere are pursued in the current regime.

Following the 2014 coup d’état, Ukraine has suffered a marked decline in its civil liberties, as stated by the International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance, a Swedish intergovernmental organisation created to feed Europe’s ideological hegemony; but it does not matter, Ukraine is already sincere for being at the service of the cowboys of the film, including the bombings against the secessionists in eastern Ukraine.
