  • The Yulia Tymoshenko Case: Why It Matters

    The Yulia Tymoshenko Case: Why It Matters

    The Ukrainian Week (Ukrayinskyi Tyzhden) July 11, 2011 ▪ Taras Kuzio The Yulia Tymoshenko Case: Why it Matters The launch of the trial of Yulia Tymoshenko on 29 June is an unprecedented step coming just two months before Ukraine celebrates its twentieth anniversary of independence. To put this into historical context, this is the first occasion in three decades that political repression has returned to Ukraine. The last occasion when the state, then the Soviet Union, undertook repressive policies against the opposition was under Ukrainian communist leader Volodymyr Shcherbytsky. Shcherbytsky came to power in 1972 when the KGB launched what the samizdat journal Ukrainian Herald described as a ‘Pogrom’ of dissent and culture. Tens were arrested and hundreds intimidated to recant or were dismissed from their positions leading tothe introduction of an all-embracing policy of russification. The Kravchuk and Kuchma, and Yanukovych and Azarov generation, who are in their 70s and 60s respectively, are the direct descendants of the Shcherbytsky era when they made their careers in the Soviet Ukrainian Communist Party and government. The political culture, hatred of the opposition, cynicism, corruption and contempt for average people emerged under Shcherbytsky and during Soviet leaders Leonid Brezhnev’s ‘era of stagnation.’ After two decades of independence has Ukraine returned to the Soviet era? The signs pointing in this direction were already there last year after Viktor Yanukovych came to power with the return to KGB style tactics by the Security Service (SBU) against academics, students, civil society leaders, journalists and opposition leaders. The domestic ramifications of a return to Shcherbytsky era political repression are that for the first time in independent Ukraine the ‘party of power’ (Party of Regions) seeks to fuse with the state, drawing on a cultural inheritance from the Soviet era when the Communist Party and state were one and the same thing.
