Bloody Business
The documents released by Onishchenko expose the personal financial interests of Petro Poroshenko in conducting the Ukrainian armed forces' punitive operations in Donbass. Companies owned by the president of Ukraine received military contracts. In other words, Kiev spent money from the IMF on the war against its own people. In the end, this money found itself in the accounts of companies belonging to the country's president.
A difficult situation
This scandal, as well as profound changes in the world order following Donald Trump's victory, have brought the Ukrainian elite into a tense, nervous state. Worried by the fact that the previous owners of Kiev, the globalists and neo-liberals, have lost control of the situation and are now exiting the world arena, a massive delegation of Ukrainian politicians has now gone to Washington. Their main task is enlisting the support of the United States in order to pursue the systematic policy of plundering Ukraine.
Candidates
The behavior of the Ukrainian elites shows that Poroshenko's fate has been sealed, and his overthrow is only a matter of a few weeks. Several Ukrainian power clans have gone to Washington in order to promote their own presidential candidate. Among them are the entourage of Yulia Tymoshenko, Verkhovna Rada deputy Oleh Lyashko, Ukrainian oligarch Rinat Akhmetov, and even ex-President of Georgia Mikhail Saakashvili. All of them are united by one thing: the new administration has refused to hold any talks with them.
Although Obama's team members are communicating with them, no decision can be made since the end of the current US President's term is in little over 40 days.

No, no! Leave him in office. Let there be more mountains of bitterness, in-fighting and disillusion. Those who promoted civil war and murder should savour the full measure of what they dished out. Let the factions contend. On the streets. Proceed to Ruin and Do Not Pass Go.
Let the world observe what happens to dunces who trust the bilge of Brussels and Washington. You want this? Look to the Ukraine for your future.
Trump is a wild card still, especially when it comes to dealing with the jewish lobby in the states, the same lobby responsible for dissecting the Ukraine in the first place. I laughed out loud when I read that Poroshenko was giving his company military contracts because there is only so much damage one can do with a chocolate bon-bon, but of course there are other spots in which the money can collect.
Those names you listed as leaders of parties currently begging Washington for support; Yulia Tymoshenko, Verkhovna Rada deputy Oleh Lyashko, Ukrainian oligarch Rinat Akhmetov, Mikhail Saakashvili. They are all crooks like Poroshenko, some of them, like Tymoshenko are really good at it too.
In the end we should not give a darn about the crooks, we should really be worried about the average, non-nazi Ukrainian who will freeze this winter because of all the crooked bullshite flowing from on high. I suppose a Ukrainian referendum to rejoin Russia is out of the question until Trump gets in, or until Poland is done beefing up its military and is ready to take back those parts of the Ukraine it claims as its own. God help them survive through 2017.
