The Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada, Ruslan Stefanchuk, considers the statements made by the Speaker of the Chamber of Deputies of the Czech Parliament, Tomio Okamura, against providing weapons to Ukraine to be an example of ignorance and cynicism.
“Tomio Okamura’s New Year’s address is a striking example of ignorance, manipulation, and cynicism. By once again insulting Ukraine and Ukrainians, he is actually harming and discrediting the Czech Republic and the Czech people, who remain on the side of dignity and justice, on the side of Ukraine,” Stefanchuk wrote on Facebook on Friday.
According to him, Ukraine is grateful to the great Czech people and their worthy representatives for all their help and support in difficult times.
In Stefanchuk’s opinion, the statements of the Czech speaker are exclusively his personal position, not the position of the Czech parliament and the Czech people.
“I am convinced that the harshest assessment of Okamura’s words will be given by the Czechs themselves — and, of course, by history, in which his name is unlikely to be preserved. And we will definitely find out whether he was a useful idiot or an FSB agent,” the speaker of the Ukrainian parliament emphasized.
According to Česke noviny (CTK), Speaker of the Chamber of Deputies Tomio Okamura (SDP) “once again spoke out on social media against providing weapons to Ukraine.”
“I believe that our republic will jump off the Brussels train, which, despite warnings from the US government, is heading towards World War III… I understand that it is profitable for the West when we pay Western arms companies for ineffective weapons that the Russians will neutralize before they even reach the front,“ CTK quotes the Speaker of the Chamber of Deputies as saying.
”Money is flowing in all directions, and everyone is getting something out of this business. Western companies and governments, as well as Ukrainian thieves around Zelensky’s junta, who are building toilets out of gold… Let them steal, but not from us, and let there be no such country in the European Union,” CTK quotes a fragment of Okamura’s speech.
