“In Zakarpatya the people in power crossed the line. Firstly, I don’t know what role Right Sector is playing in this scenario. Was this the real Right Sector? Secondly, the fact that they used weapons is unacceptable.”
Natalia Litviniuk,
banker
“It’s outrageous. Everyone remembers the horrible bandits in the 1990s, but they’re still here today. I can’t accept what the Right Sector is doing. [They should]join the military and fight there. Right Sector was acting in their personal interests.”
Roman Bilyk,
soundman
“Zakarpatya always was a corrupt region due to its access to four bordering countries; people always profited from the customs controls. This is due to the incompetence of the Right Sector, who decided to tackle smuggling on their own. If they really had evidence about smuggling groups and corruption, why didn’t they agree with Kyiv?”
Yuliya Matvienko,
financier
“It doesn’t matter who started to shoot first, but Right Sector didn’t have the right to be there in any case. They shouldn’t have weapons. The law is the law, and whether you are from Right Sector or just a citizen, you should obey it – especially when we’re at war.”
