With the Western governments unconditional backing and media silence, Ukraine appears to have become less democratic than it was the case in the entire post-communist period. Now, Svoboda deputies and the Radical Party leader, aligned with the neo-Nazi Social National Assembly, with the approval of the parliament speaker and the parliamentary majority openly assault and kick out opposition leaders and deputies from the Ukrainian parliament for questioning the antiterrorist operation and Odesa and Maidan sniper massacres investigations. The government initiated banning of the Communist Party and persecutions of opposition members on various political and non-political charges. The absolute majority of the votes in the parliament since the violent overthrow of the Yanukovych government were passed with not a single deputy voting against, a pattern last seen before perestroika in Soviet Ukraine. korrespondent.net/ukraine/politics/3396369-yzghnannyky-rady-kak-deputatov-vyhoniauit-yz-parlamenta
