1) The Odesa Maidan had never attacked the camp at the Kulikovo [Field] before, even though they could have done so easily and on multiple occasions. As a rule, few people were there [at the Antimaidan camp], no serious fortifications were in place, and the camp was present 24/7. You could come there on any day and at any time.

However, people from the Kulikovo Field came and attacked the Odesa Maidan several times, even though the camp by the Duke [Richelieu Monument] was not standing 24/7. Moreover, daily gatherings by the Duke had stopped recently. During one of the more recent incidents, four of the attackers were detained. They were found carrying weapons, and handed over to the cops. The cops set them free.

2) There were, indeed, multiple calls to do something about the camp at the Kulikovo Field. They were especially loud after each new assault on the “Duke camp.” These calls came from ordinary protesters who were fed up, both with the enemy going unpunished, and with some strange visitors, who were obviously there to provoke. The leaders [of Odesa Maidan] stopped these initiatives every time.

The leaders of the Kulikovo camp were seen in the town center when the Antimaidan assaulted the march. In other words, they led the Kulikovo crowd there, even though they knew full well that the march from Sobornaya Square was going to the [football] game, not to the Kulikovo camp. The same leaders ushered their men into the Trade Unions House, even though it was clear that their attackers would not stop at dismantling the camp–given the size of the crowd and the height of their anger following the assault on the peaceful rally and the murder of pro-Ukrainian activists in the town center. By the way, the Kulikovo leaders are all safe and sound.

3) Gatherings by the Duke, as well as events in other parts of the city, were canceled many times, specifically because guys from the Kulikovo camp were expected to show up. The events were canceled to avoid clashes. The latest example of that happened very recently, when there was yet another march under Russian flags, going from the Kulikovo field to the Duke Monument.

I can’t recall the Kulikovo crowd canceling any events to avoid clashes. If this ever happened, please tell me when and where. Furthermore, they broke the agreement to refrain from carrying any Russian flags around the city on April 10. The size of the flag carried through the city on April 10 was seen not only by Odesans, but by all of Russia, broadcast on live TV.

And another important comparison: when the “monsters-killers-Banderites” got to Kulikovo Field last night [May 4], the first thing they did was form a human shield around all the flowers and oil lamps set up as a memorial for the dead, just to make sure no one would destroy it in a fit of rage. This happened despite the fact that the memorial had plenty of those St. George ribbons, which serve to make many people sick by now. Despite the fact that it was quite clear who’d set up that memorial. But it was not destroyed–moreover, everything was done to protect it. No active protection was needed, however, and the human shield was eventually called off. Then ALL the dead were honored with a minute of silence. Not just the dead from our side.

It is, however, no secret who destroyed a similar memorial by the Duke, with photos of those killed at Instytutska Street in Kyiv. That was done 40 days after the shooting at Instytutska Street [the Orthodox commemorate their dead on the 40th day after death].

These are the comparisons. It would be very easy to verify everything I wrote about. Let everyone draw their own conclusions.
