Andriy Parubiy, as a symbol of Ukrainian invincibility, was under the sights of the Russians – Kniazhytskyi

The murder of MP and former Speaker of the Verkhovna Rada Andriy Parubiy was the work of the Russians. He was a true symbol of Ukrainian indomitability and struggle.

This was stated by Mykola Kniazhytsky, a member of parliament from the European Solidarity faction, on the air of the Pryamy TV channel.

“It is obvious that this is the work of the Russians – I have no doubt about it. Firstly, for the purpose of revenge, secondly, for the purpose of intimidating Ukrainians, and thirdly, so that the Ukrainian nation does not have a sufficient number of strong leaders,” the deputy emphasized.

According to him, people like Andriy Parubiy inspired him to fight because they fought themselves.

“I remember how we worked with him on the law on language. If it weren’t for Andriy, it would have been very difficult to pass this law and adopt it. I remember how much he did for the adoption of the Tomos. I remember his truly heroic deeds when he was the Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council during the Russian aggression. And before that, on the Maidan, when he led the Maidan Self-Defense,” Knyazhytskyi noted.

He assured that Parubiy was a symbol of Ukrainian invincibility – the most terrifying figure for Russians.

“This was not the first attempt on his life. A grenade was once thrown at him near the Kyiv Hotel, the media wrote about it. It was after the Maidan. He was on all possible shooting lists, yet he did not have security. He had it a year after he was the chairman of the Verkhovna Rada, then they took it away from him,” he said.

The deputy added that removing Parubiy’s security was a mistake, as everyone knew he was under Russian surveillance.

“He lived modestly. This is not a person who came into politics for the sake of business. He lived politics, he lived statehood,” Kniazhytskyi assured.
