Defender of Democracy? Increasingly Authoritarian Zelensky Forbids Former President Poroshenko From Leaving Ukraine, Calls Him ‘A Tool in the Hands of the Russians’
Ukraine turns into a tyranny before our eyes.
Imagine a leader who has banned the opposition parties, totally censored the press, canceled the elections, and now is indulging in paranoid behavior to keep former presidents from even leaving the country.
Stop imagining: that’s Volodymyr Zelensky, President of Ukraine.
It is indeed a bad joke to call him a “defender of democracy.”
We are now informed that former President Petro Poroshenko was denied permission to leave Ukraine.
Kiev regime’s authorities say he was heading to a planned meeting with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.
Associated Press reported:
“Poroshenko announced Friday that he had been turned away at the border despite previously receiving permission from Parliament to leave the country.
