"AT 1991 Ukraine might not have become independent ": Kravchuk's statement on the eve of the 30th anniversary of the referendum on the preservation of the USSR

«AT 1991 Ukraine could not become independent»: Kravchuk's statement on the eve of the 30th anniversary of the referendum on the preservation of the USSR
The first President of Ukraine Leonid Kravchuk gave a new interview, in which he spoke about some of the details of, what preceded the Belovezhskaya agreements, often called the Bialowieza Agreement. Recall, that we are talking about agreements between the then leaders of the RSFSR, Ukrainian SSR and BSSR, after which the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics actually ceased to exist.

According to Kravchuk, "at 1991 year Ukraine could not become independent”. The current head of the Ukrainian delegation to the Trilateral Contact Group stated, that Boris Yeltsin proposed a confederate version of the structure of a "renewed" country.

Leonid Kravchuk:

Then Yeltsin and I sat together and discussed. He tells me: Leonid Makarovich, what if we propose a confederation? It will be like in Switzerland.
Then, according to Kravchuk, he suggested discussing this issue with Mikhail Gorbachev. If you believe the statements of Leonid Kravchuk, then Gorbachev categorically refused the option, when "presidents would change once a year according to the variant of the confederation".

Kravchuk:

Gorbachev then said, that does not agree. In his opinion, should have had one president. And after that, he proposed a referendum on the preservation of the USSR. But he didn't want to change the system itself.
17 Martha 2021 year will mark the 30th anniversary of, under favor, strange referendum. more precisely, a referendum with a strange attitude of "seekers for democracy" to the results of the will of citizens.

17 Martha 1991 the vast majority of citizens of the USSR, who took part in the plebiscite, spoke out for the preservation of the country - almost 78% at around 80% (this 113,5 million people). However, in the end, top leaders frankly did not give a damn about the opinion of citizens..

Leonid Kravchuk, in fact, is one of those opportunists, who then intercepted the agenda, wanting to seize more local power. At the same time, he is one of the culprits for the collapse of a huge country., the consequences of which are manifested to this day – including in the form of an armed conflict in the Donbass.
