Putin: Bewaffneter Staatsstreich

(05.03.2014)

Die ausführliche Pressekonferenz des russischen Präsidenten Wladimir Putin zur Lage in der Ukraine ist inzwischen auf englisch transkribiert. Er machte darin keinen Hehl aus seiner Überzeugung, dass es sich bei den Vorgängen in der Ukraine um einen gewaltsamen Staatsstreich handelt: “First of all, my assessment of what happened in Kiev and in Ukraine in general. There can only be one assessment: this was an anti-constitutional takeover, an armed seizure of power. Does anyone question this? Nobody does. […] There are three ways of removing a President under Ukrainian law: one is his death, the other is when he personally steps down, and the third is impeachment. The latter is a well-deliberated constitutional norm. It has to involve the Constitutional Court, the Supreme Court and the Rada. This is a complicated and lengthy procedure. It was not carried out.  Therefore, from a legal perspective this is an undisputed fact.” (jw)
