Kiev, October 4, 1993, 4:50 AM
"In my opinion it is not necessary to express the support to Mr. Eltsin in this situation: everybody understands that only decisive actions, using all the necessary means including regular armed forces to stop the fascist gangs, including armed forces, to defend freedom and democracy and to restore order in Moscow - that is the only what all the normal people can expect from the president.
What I would like to say: for me is not clear, where are the army units now? What they are waiting for already more than 6 hours? We see, that again, like in August 1991, the common Russian citizens armed only by their will to defend freedom and democracy in their country, the citizens coming in these hours to Tverskaya street - is the only protection of the president and government against fascists bandits!
But I would like to underline also following fact. The forces which commit war crimes in ex-Yugoslavia, which have taken city of Sukhumi some days ago and building of Moscow mairie some hours ago, which assault now the Ostankino TV station, which kill women in Sarajevo, passengers of civilian airplanes in Georgia and unarmed citizens in Moscow, which fight against Moldovian police in Transnistria and against militia in Moscow - they are not only the same forces: they are also just the same people! The evil empire is still alive and kills from Sarajevo through Moscow till Caucasus.
I would like to address to the Moscovits surrounding the building of Mossoviet: you fell now, you know exactly how people feel in Sarajevo and in Sukhumi. You have seen here and now the animal face of National Bolshevism - but it is the same face as in Belgrade, Tiraspol and Gudauta. So, let us understand finally this fact! Let us stop any kind of even moral support to bandits and killers who camouflage by the rhetorics of "national liberation struggle for self-determination", who appeals to asking to defend "the rights of Russian speaking minority". They are not simply liers, they kill not only in Eastern Moldova or Western Georgia - tonight they kill you on Moscow streets!
The victory of democracy and low in Moscow - I am sure, we win - will be not enough. The monster of National Bolshevism has to be crushed down everywhere - be it in Belgrade, Tiraspol, Moscow or Abkhazia."
