Sloviansk’s self-imposed “mayor” Vyacheslav Ponomarev promised to prevent presidential elections in Ukraine at any cost .”We will take all necessary measures so that elections in the southeast do not take place” – he said, referring not only to Sloviansk, but the whole of Ukraine.
Asked how he would accomplish this, he responded, “We’ll take somebody as hostage and hang him by the balls.”
He also promised to destroy dissent, calling it “a harsh truth of life.”
I think things are going to get ugly in the next few weeks.
