The first president of Ukraine died

17

The first President of Ukraine, Leonid Kravchuk, died in Kyiv at the age of 89.

This became known on the evening of May 10.



Kravchuk was president of independent Ukraine from December 5, 1991 to July 19, 1994. He was replaced as head of state by Leonid Kuchma.

Recently, the ex-leader of Ukraine was seriously ill, and in 2021 he underwent heart surgery.

Kravchuk died a week after Stanislav Shushkevich, the first leader of independent Belarus. Both are signatories of the Belovezhskaya agreements.

      About the dead, either good or nothing but the truth

      "God give rest, O Lord, to the soul of your servant, the newly-departed LEONID, and forgive him all sins, voluntary and involuntary, and grant him the Kingdom of Heaven!"

      Now there is a scapegoat. He was not a stupid person. I have no doubt that he knew - he would die a goat.

      The first one went ... no matter how he got out, and his grave must be guarded more than an eye, because there are too many who want to shoot his ashes from a cannon ... he choked on his own poison. Well, the earth is glassy ....

      Well, the earth is a glassy paskuda.

      Fair enough, and not just for him. But also to ShushUkevich and Borka-drunk.

      We are waiting for condolences to the deceased respected partner from the Yeltsin Center and negotiators via video link with the Kievsky drug addicts. The Kremlin will probably refrain, but if it had died a couple of months ago, they would not have neglected the opportunity, in solidarity with world leaders, to note the contribution of the corpse to the movement towards progress.

      Yeltsin was waiting for him there in hell, now they are waiting for Shushkevich and Gorbachev.

      If he took the secrets of his cooperation with the Anglo-Saxons in the 90s after the collapse of the USSR with him, then at least the symbolism in his departure with the hope of a new transformation

      Kravchuk died, which means that Russophobic Ukraine will finally die after him, for a whole 100 years thanks to the Bolsheviks, this non-state parasitized on Russian soil, trying to be reborn as a benign tumor into a malignant Khazaria-Israel

      The only pity is that he lived so long. It would be necessary to give oak quickly.
      Who else would speed our marked Mishka to the cemetery ...

      It’s a pity I didn’t wait ... I wanted to see everything, how will he defend Kyiv from his hunting rifle .... But the fact that all the enemies of Russia are going where they should come at the end of their path is good...
