Dear friends!
In case you do not know (and its most probably the case as for some reason Western news avoid informing people about recent outrageous events in Ukraine) we would like to attract your attention to the following.
On the 31 October (and if needed - second round on the 21 November) the Presidential elections in Ukraine will take place. This is the most crucial elections in Ukraine's recent history as it is first time that we have a candidate who:
1. Enjoys genuine support of the majority of population despite the counter activities of the Government
2. Has never occupied any of the senior Soviet Communist positions and thus has no HOMO SOVETIKUS view of things (such as democracy, human rights, freedom of speech etc.)
3. Is an economist by education and with a solid track record (he has been a head of National Bank of Ukraine for 7 years as well as Prime Minister of the most successful Ukrainian government)
4. Is a Patriot - with respect to the culture, language and history of his own country.
It is the first time that Ukraine gets a chance to reverse the deterioration of the democratic standards in Ukraine and to get on track towards democracy, transparency and European integration. And - most importantly - normal living standards for its population.
In the same time those in power definitely are not keen on giving up their influence. They are using all ways possible to bring their successor to Presidency. You can see the list of election process irregularities below.
Yesterday, on the 24th October Mr Yushchenko - opposition candidate - gather a rally of over 100,000 supporters in front of the Central Election Committee (CEC) stating the people will protect their rights in case the CEC decides to falsify the election results. After the rally finished and most people left, those still standing in the square were attacked by a group of 50 men, equipped with the hammers and broken glass bottles. Later they turned out to be the police officers without uniforms. This resulted in 18 people in hospitals and Government-controlled national media spreading information about opposition in charge of the attack! And there is more.
Hereby we would like to make you aware of what is happening just hundreds or maybe even dozens kilometers from your country. People are trying to defend on the streets their right to normal life. Please this information further - it is important to let everyone know!
Below you will find links to the articles in Western media about Ukrainian
elections.

Ukrainian election process has been characterized by local and international observers as fraudulent and unfair.
Among the most widely spread irregularities are:
• Manipulations with the voters’ lists
wrong name spelling, inclusion of deceased voters, skipping voters reaching up to 70% of the total voters quantities
• Intimidation of the members of the district election committees
through bribery or threats attempts to get the needed result of votes count
• Pressuring the voters by the management
senior managers/bosses at the enterprises, institutions, Universities using the low awareness of voters are forcing them to vote for the “right” pro-Governmental candidate
• Persecution of the media
that express opinions other than the Government’s – depriving of licenses, beating up journalists, threats to printing houses management, several editorial offices burnt down or robbed
• Obstacles to printed materials distribution
with the help of the enforcement agencies and/or criminals the distribution of printed materials of opposition candidates is blocked
• Unequal access to national media
according to statistics per each 20 seconds of the opposition candidate in the national channel there are 35 minutes of the pro-Government candidate
• Persecution of the youth and human rights activists
arrests, fabricated criminal cases, searches, interrogations, beating up in order to prevent them from participation in civic activities in support of free and fair elections and/or the opposition candidates
• Distortion or total falsification of information
in the national TV channels and newspapers – the only source of information for about 40% of the country’s population
• Unequal treatment of Ukrainian voters in different countries
refusal of authorities to open additional polling stations for 7 million Ukrainians abroad (e.g. in Russia with 3 million Ukrainians 41 polling stations will be opened and in Italy, where there are about 1,5 million Ukrainian voters – only 2 polling stations)
• Limiting mobility
in order to decrease the quantity of opposition candidate supporters during rallies the police is limiting their mobility within the country (confiscation of bus drivers driving licenses, removing of license plates from the vehicles, causing damages to the vehicles, blocking the tickets for the trains and long-distance buses)
• Bribing the “supporters”
to increase the size of pro-Government rallies, the citizens are being bribed to participate
etc. etc. etc…

Movna popravka podanoho tekstu.Dear friends!
Since for some reason Western media are not providing enough appropriate information about the constant outrages being committed in Ukraine, we would like to attract your attention to the following.
On the 31rst of October (with a possible second round on the 21rst of November) the Presidential elections in Ukraine will take place. These are the most crucial elections in Ukraine's recent history, since for the first time we have a candidate, Mr. Victor Yushchenko, who:
1. Enjoys genuine support of the majority of population despite the counter activities of the ruling regime.
2. Has never occupied any of the senior Soviet Communist positions priot to 1991 and thus has no "Sovietized" (i.e. perverse) perspective on values such as democracy, human rights, freedom of speech etc.
3. Is an economist by education and with a solid track record (he was head of the National Bank of Ukraine for 7 years and, in 1999-2001, Prime Minister of the most successful Ukrainian government.)
4. Is in tune with the culture, language and history of his own country.
For the first time Ukraine has a genuine chance to reverse the deterioration of its democratic standards (systematically engineered for years by the current regime) and to get on track towards transparency in government,European integration,and, most importantly, towards normal living standards for its people, millions of whom are currently forced to seek a livelihood abroad as migrant workers
At the same time the ruling regime is unwilling to relinquish its baneful influence on the political, economic, social and cultural processes in the country. The powers that be are doing everything possible to ensure that their "man", Mr. Victor Yanukovych, become the next President, even if this means trampling on the Constitution and the laws of the country in the process. The regime has already committed a host of crimes and irregularities in the election campaign, and apparently plans to commit still more.
Yesterday, on the 23rd of October Mr. Yushchenko - the main people's candidate - gathered a rally of over 100,000 supporters in front of the Central Election Committee (CEC) building, stating in his address that the people will protect their rights in case the CEC decides to falsify the election results. After the rally had ended and most people had left, those still standing in the square were attacked by a group of 50 men, equipped with hammers and broken bottles. It was subsequently proven that these arrackers were police officers dressed as civilians. This attack by the criminalized "police" resulted in 18 people being hospitalized, while regime-controlled national media spread disinformation about police having been victimized by the opposition...
We would like you to be aware of what is happening just hundreds or maybe even dozens of kilometers from your own country. People are trying to defend on the streets their right to a normal life. Please convey this information far and wide - it is important to let everyone know! Nothing is more frightening to our regime than the availability of truth about its deeds! Demand that your media report this! Human rights are a universal concern after all.

Among the most widespread irregularities are:
• Manipulations of voters’ lists
misspelling of names, inclusion of deceased voters, arbitrary cancellation of genuine voters sometimes reaching up to 70% of the total voters' contingent in a particular area.
• Intimidation of members of the district election committees
through bribery or threats so as to force them to falsify the eventual vote count.
• Pressuring of voters by the management
senior managers/bosses at commercial enterprises, and institutions such as Universities, profiting from the low awareness by voters of their democratic rights, are forcing them to vote for the “right” pro-regime candidate, Mr. Yanukovych.
• Persecution of those media
which express opinions other than the regime’s – depriving them of licenses, beating up their journalists, issuing threats to printing house management, and already guilty of having had several editorial offices burnt down or robbed by hired thugs
• Obstacles to printed materials distribution
with the help of the executive law enforcement agencies and/or mafia criminals the distribution of printed materials of opposition candidates is blocked
• Unequal access to the national media
according to statistics for each 20 seconds allotted to the opposition candidate in the national channel (UT-1) there are 35 minutes reserved for the pro-regime candidate
