Irina Karenina comments on Ukrainian Maidan: I had a clear sense of events being staged
During her talk with ONT TV channel, Irina Karenina, a special correspondent of the SB. Belarus Segodnya, admitted that she took the events taking place on the Maidan to heart, realising that it was all staged
Irina Karenina noted, “It was all personal for me. I helped as much as I could, for example, by spreading information. I was taking about it and ruined so many relationships at that time. It might seem that these were their [Ukrainians’] internal affairs, people wanted to go to Europe, and what’s wrong with that. However, I had a very clear sense of staging in how they want to go to Europe, in how they draw their posters, in what they do and how.
She drew a parallel with the 2020 events in our country, “In 2020, I saw how posters were held word for word. I saw all the same performances. I had a clear understanding of who came, why they came and what would happen next if we falter now. I couldn’t fundamentally change anything in 2013-2014 in Ukraine, but here, in the country where I live, where I raise a child and plan to live on, in a country whose interests are mine, everything is different,” Karenina noted.
