1
00:00:27,870 --> 00:00:31,330
CROWD CHANTING
2
00:00:31,700 --> 00:00:33,700
November December 2004,
3
00:00:34,990 --> 00:00:37,700
across the planet, eyes
are riveted on Ukraine.
4
00:00:39,990 --> 00:00:43,330
Tens of thousands of Ukrainians
camp out in the freezing cold
5
00:00:43,330 --> 00:00:46,290
to protest against fraud
in the presidential elections.
6
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,160
Democratic candidate, Viktor
Yushchenko has been poisoned.
7
00:00:52,660 --> 00:00:54,830
Viktor Yanukovych, the
pro Russian candidate
8
00:00:54,830 --> 00:00:55,870
of the regime,
9
00:00:55,870 --> 00:00:57,990
has been falsely
declared victorious
10
00:00:57,990 --> 00:01:00,910
Vladimir Putin
congratulates him.
11
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:05,120
After years of repression,
the people stand firm,
12
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:06,620
in the name of justice and
13
00:01:06,620 --> 00:01:08,330
freedom, in the
name of democracy.
14
00:01:08,580 --> 00:01:09,910
CHANTING
15
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,910
Round table discussions
led by the EU
16
00:01:12,910 --> 00:01:15,290
lead to a third round
in the elections.
17
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:21,290
On the 26th of December
2004, Viktor Yushchenko
18
00:01:21,290 --> 00:01:22,910
is elected president.
19
00:01:23,950 --> 00:01:26,620
He and his ally Yulia
Tymoshenko promise
20
00:01:26,620 --> 00:01:28,580
to bring democracy
to Ukraine.
21
00:01:29,370 --> 00:01:31,700
8 years on, what has
become of the heroes
22
00:01:31,700 --> 00:01:34,120
of the revolution
and their promises?
23
00:01:34,330 --> 00:01:37,660
What has become of the hopes and
dreams of the Ukrainian people?
24
00:01:38,830 --> 00:01:42,370
What cloud has hung over
this nation for centuries?
25
00:01:53,700 --> 00:01:57,290
Democracy emerges in Ukraine
during the 16th century.
26
00:01:57,910 --> 00:02:01,700
Groups of Ukrainians flee
their harsh serfdom in Poland
27
00:02:01,700 --> 00:02:05,160
to settle on the green steppes
along the river Dniepr.
28
00:02:06,620 --> 00:02:09,200
Fervent Christians
and fierce warriors
29
00:02:09,410 --> 00:02:11,580
they create a community
protected by a
30
00:02:11,580 --> 00:02:13,540
military unit called
Sitch Zaparog.
31
00:02:14,870 --> 00:02:17,080
Their leader is elected.
32
00:02:17,450 --> 00:02:21,040
Free men, rebels,
they are the cossacks!
33
00:02:21,410 --> 00:02:24,660
The way they chose their leaders
was democratic. They voted.
34
00:02:24,660 --> 00:02:27,620
This is at a time when,
who voted in Europe?
35
00:02:27,620 --> 00:02:32,120
It was the monarchies,
it was the divine ruler
36
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:35,250
which comes from God and his
descendent becomes the next one!
37
00:02:35,870 --> 00:02:40,790
CROWD AMBIENCE
38
00:02:41,540 --> 00:02:45,660
Every Cossack came,
take off his hat
39
00:02:45,660 --> 00:02:51,000
and put to the feet
of his candidate,
40
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:56,620
and who had more hats, he won.
41
00:02:56,990 --> 00:03:01,330
So democratic procedure, yes.
42
00:03:02,870 --> 00:03:06,120
In 1654 Bohdan Kmelnytsky,
43
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,290
the father of the
Ukrainian nation,
44
00:03:08,290 --> 00:03:10,950
leads a massive revolt
against the Poles.
45
00:03:10,950 --> 00:03:14,120
Forced into retreat he signs an
agreement with the Russian Tsar.
46
00:03:14,580 --> 00:03:17,160
Unknowingly he signs
away Ukrainian
47
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,790
freedom to Russia for
centuries to come.
48
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,790
In 1917 the October revolution
49
00:03:49,790 --> 00:03:51,580
puts an end to the
Tsarist empire,
50
00:03:52,450 --> 00:03:54,330
Ukraine takes advantage
of the chaos
51
00:03:54,330 --> 00:03:55,950
and declares its independence.
52
00:03:56,910 --> 00:04:00,620
9 months later, the Red
army crushes the rebels.
53
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,620
In 1922 Lenin creates the USSR.
54
00:04:04,830 --> 00:04:07,660
For the Bolsheviks, Ukraine
still belongs to Russia.
55
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,080
But the Ukrainians will
never be Russians.
56
00:04:31,330 --> 00:04:34,660
PATRIOTIC SINGING
57
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:40,330
In 1927 Joseph Stalin becomes
the new master of the USSR.
58
00:04:41,250 --> 00:04:45,080
The last thing Stalin wants in
Ukraine, is free thinking people
59
00:04:45,370 --> 00:04:49,790
but he needs the wealth of its
land, its cereals, its coal
60
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,080
and human machines to
serve the soviet state.
61
00:04:53,990 --> 00:04:57,580
In 1928 Stalin's five year
plan makes Ukraine the
62
00:04:57,580 --> 00:05:02,120
industrial motor of the USSR,
but the peasants resist.
63
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:47,540
In the early 1930s Stalin
organises a state famine,
64
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:49,330
Holodomor.
65
00:05:50,410 --> 00:05:51,950
The Ukrainians are refused
the right
66
00:05:51,950 --> 00:05:54,040
to search for food elsewhere.
67
00:05:55,330 --> 00:05:59,660
Their land becomes their
prison and their grave.
68
00:06:00,660 --> 00:06:03,500
7 million die of starvation.
69
00:07:17,950 --> 00:07:20,950
In the meantime propaganda
films show well fed
70
00:07:20,950 --> 00:07:24,450
children and loudspeakers
relay patriotic songs.
71
00:07:32,250 --> 00:07:34,330
Stalin dies in 1953.
72
00:07:35,330 --> 00:07:37,790
The population is
duly unconsolable.
73
00:07:38,750 --> 00:07:40,540
The master seems to
have orchestrated
74
00:07:40,540 --> 00:07:42,160
the national mourning...
himself.
75
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,330
Throughout Soviet times, the
so called 'province' of
76
00:07:47,330 --> 00:07:50,950
Ukraine continues to be
economically vital to the USSR.
77
00:07:51,620 --> 00:07:52,700
It is also the
birthplace
78
00:07:52,700 --> 00:07:55,450
of Soviet leaders,
intellectuals and writers.
79
00:07:56,620 --> 00:07:58,500
The Ukrainian people
are some of the
80
00:07:58,500 --> 00:08:00,370
highest educated in
the Soviet union
81
00:08:00,540 --> 00:08:02,450
and the workforce for
the rising nuclear
82
00:08:02,450 --> 00:08:05,120
and atomic industries
during the cold war.
83
00:08:44,790 --> 00:08:46,910
When I think about
the Soviet times,
84
00:08:46,910 --> 00:08:48,620
I remember a lot of humiliation.
85
00:08:48,620 --> 00:08:52,120
It was really hard to
get very simple things like a
86
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,620
tooth brush, tooth
paste, soap, or shampoo,
87
00:08:55,620 --> 00:08:57,370
you had to stand
in very long lines
88
00:08:57,370 --> 00:08:59,370
to have these basic things.
89
00:08:59,370 --> 00:09:03,040
It was very sick, very
ill, in its nature.
90
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,370
And also imagine
what it was like
91
00:09:05,370 --> 00:09:07,750
to be Ukrainian
under the Soviet rule.
92
00:09:08,450 --> 00:09:11,990
For many generations this
nation felt that the
93
00:09:11,990 --> 00:09:15,950
very fact of its existence
was under huge question.
94
00:09:16,330 --> 00:09:19,250
As a school boy, I
remember my school was
95
00:09:19,250 --> 00:09:22,330
the only Ukrainian
school downtown Kiev
96
00:09:22,330 --> 00:09:24,540
where kids could
study maths or
97
00:09:24,540 --> 00:09:26,790
physics in their
native language.
98
00:09:28,250 --> 00:09:29,990
LOW PIANO NOTE
99
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,410
On the 6th of April, 1986
100
00:09:32,660 --> 00:09:36,620
the nuclear power station of
Chernobyl in Ukraine explodes.
101
00:09:37,450 --> 00:09:41,040
At least 10,000 Ukrainians
and Beloussians will die.
102
00:09:41,750 --> 00:09:44,870
Only the nomenclatura is
informed of the accident
103
00:09:44,870 --> 00:09:46,330
and its gravity.
104
00:09:47,410 --> 00:09:49,870
Chernobyl is 50 miles
from Kiev, the capital.
105
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,540
Ukrainian people are
informed 4 weeks later.
106
00:10:44,540 --> 00:10:46,990
Chernobyl also causes the
Ukrainian political scene
107
00:10:46,990 --> 00:10:47,990
to explode.
108
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,080
A party for
independence is created
109
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,250
by ecologists and intellectuals.
110
00:10:52,830 --> 00:10:54,370
In 1989 in Germany
111
00:10:54,370 --> 00:10:57,250
the Berlin wall is torn
down by the population.
112
00:10:57,990 --> 00:11:01,000
A wind of change is
sweeping across the USSR.
113
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,910
In 1990, Lithuania
declares its independence.
114
00:11:05,870 --> 00:11:09,330
And in Ukraine a human
chain crosses the country
115
00:11:09,790 --> 00:11:10,990
the people sing,
116
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,330
Mother Moscow we want
to be made orphans.
117
00:13:22,990 --> 00:13:38,290
ORCHESTRAL MUSIC
118
00:13:39,620 --> 00:13:43,080
The first tent city on
Maidan which I remember,
119
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,080
happened when young students,
120
00:13:45,660 --> 00:13:47,040
2 or 3 hundred of them,
121
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:51,540
they went to the central square
of the communist capital
122
00:13:51,540 --> 00:13:53,080
of the soviet Ukraine
123
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,750
and they protested against
the communist rule.
124
00:13:56,500 --> 00:13:58,580
On the 24th of August 1991,
125
00:13:58,580 --> 00:14:01,080
the conservative
faction of the KGB
126
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:03,620
attempts a putsch
against Gorbatchev
127
00:14:03,620 --> 00:14:05,450
who wants to reform the USSR.
128
00:14:06,250 --> 00:14:10,330
Boris Yeltsin intervenes and
emerges as the new leader.
129
00:14:10,990 --> 00:14:13,200
There was this
feeling of optimism.
130
00:14:13,370 --> 00:14:16,370
At the same time nobody knew how
quickly things would fall apart,
131
00:14:16,370 --> 00:14:19,620
so when the coup happened,
it was also extraordinary
132
00:14:19,620 --> 00:14:21,290
in the Maidan,
133
00:14:21,290 --> 00:14:23,330
which then was the
October Revolution square,
134
00:14:23,330 --> 00:14:25,080
people were standing there
135
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,950
and the police barriers
were up, protecting...
136
00:14:27,950 --> 00:14:30,790
and then on the day
that the coup ended,
137
00:14:30,790 --> 00:14:33,250
I remember clearly
being in the square
138
00:14:33,250 --> 00:14:38,990
and the police barricades just
melted and people surged hmmm.
139
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,290
APPLAUSE AND CHANTING
140
00:14:42,700 --> 00:14:45,580
We had this feeling,
this flavour of miracle
141
00:14:45,580 --> 00:14:48,120
which we had the chance
to see with our own eyes.
142
00:14:48,290 --> 00:14:50,790
I was 15 years old at that time
143
00:14:50,790 --> 00:14:55,410
but I clearly
remember this feeling
144
00:14:55,410 --> 00:14:57,750
of inspiration, enthusiasm
145
00:14:57,750 --> 00:15:00,450
which the country was full
of, it was wonderful.
146
00:15:01,870 --> 00:15:05,040
The very same day, on the
24th of September 1991,
147
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,290
Ukrainian parliament, RADA,
148
00:15:07,290 --> 00:15:09,660
declares the
independence of Ukraine.
149
00:15:09,830 --> 00:15:11,660
CROWD AMBIENCE
150
00:16:04,830 --> 00:16:18,080
PATRIOTIC SINGING
AND MUSIC
151
00:16:18,950 --> 00:16:21,290
On the 1st of
December 1991,
152
00:16:21,410 --> 00:16:23,660
Leonid Kravchuk, the
former president
153
00:16:23,660 --> 00:16:26,080
of the Soviet Socialist
Republic of Ukraine,
154
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:27,620
is elected president.
155
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:52,410
TRIUMPHANT MUSIC
156
00:17:22,120 --> 00:17:24,950
But independence
is not for free
157
00:17:24,950 --> 00:17:27,620
and although Russian gas
transits through Ukraine,
158
00:17:27,620 --> 00:17:31,700
Ukraine has a gas debt towards
Russia of 80 million dollars.
159
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:33,540
Yeltsin declares,
160
00:17:33,540 --> 00:17:36,990
either Ukraine enters
the CIS or it pays up.
161
00:17:37,750 --> 00:17:41,080
The gas blackmail between
Russia and Ukraine has begun.
162
00:17:41,750 --> 00:17:43,250
Pro Russian Crimea becomes
163
00:17:43,250 --> 00:17:45,700
an autonomous republic
within Ukraine.
164
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,000
The Black Sea is shared.
165
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,290
20 percent for Ukraine and
80 percent for Russia.
166
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,410
Russian flags fly in the
port of Sebastopol.
167
00:17:57,790 --> 00:18:00,540
Independence means the
creation of a constitution,
168
00:18:00,540 --> 00:18:04,750
of laws, of an army,
of a police force.
169
00:18:04,750 --> 00:18:06,160
But over the centuries,
170
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:09,790
religious faith has been the
only refuge for the population.
171
00:18:09,790 --> 00:18:13,410
They create a independent
Ukrainian Orthodox church
172
00:18:13,410 --> 00:18:15,040
with a Kiev Patriarchy.
173
00:18:16,830 --> 00:18:19,040
Kravtchouk is a bad manager.
174
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:22,080
And in 1994, he is replaced
by Leonid Kuchma
175
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:26,000
ex director of the strategic
missile complex of the USSR.
176
00:18:26,330 --> 00:18:27,580
His slogan,
177
00:18:27,580 --> 00:18:30,660
With Kuchma your factory
will take to its wings.
178
00:18:30,910 --> 00:18:32,250
He abolishes the parliamentary
179
00:18:32,250 --> 00:18:34,120
constitution to give
himself more power.
180
00:18:34,830 --> 00:18:38,080
Kuchma comes from
Dnipropetrovsk, near Donbass,
181
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,950
in the industrial heart of
the USSR created by Stalin.
182
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:47,200
The east of Ukraine is
predominantly Russian speaking
183
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:49,660
because that was the common
language of the miners
184
00:18:49,660 --> 00:18:52,160
who were brought into that
area to mine the coal.
185
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:57,580
It was also one of the major
centres of communist influence.
186
00:18:58,120 --> 00:19:00,830
It was the great
patriotic miners
187
00:19:00,830 --> 00:19:02,870
fighting for the
future of the country.
188
00:19:02,870 --> 00:19:04,750
They were
heavily rewarded.
189
00:19:04,910 --> 00:19:06,160
They were
some of the highest
190
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:07,700
paid workers in
the Soviet Union.
191
00:19:07,700 --> 00:19:11,200
They were given incredibly
special status.
192
00:19:11,540 --> 00:19:15,080
So, over a period of time,
there has been a natural
193
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,870
arrogance, if you
like, developed.
194
00:19:18,870 --> 00:19:21,870
We are the best of the
people of Ukraine.
195
00:19:22,660 --> 00:19:25,370
Kuchma launches a massive
privatization programme,
196
00:19:25,370 --> 00:19:27,950
which favours his
family and friends,
197
00:19:27,950 --> 00:19:30,950
especially in the energy
and media sectors.
198
00:19:31,250 --> 00:19:34,370
He has started to create a
select clan of oligarchs.
199
00:20:11,830 --> 00:20:13,200
An enterprising young couple,
200
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,370
Yulia Tymoshenko
and her husband,
201
00:20:15,370 --> 00:20:16,790
seize this opportunity
202
00:20:16,790 --> 00:20:18,910
and successfully create
different businesses
203
00:20:18,910 --> 00:20:21,200
before entering
the gas industry.
204
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,450
Their company quickly becomes
the biggest intermediary
205
00:20:23,450 --> 00:20:25,870
for Russian gas in Ukraine.
206
00:20:51,700 --> 00:20:54,990
From now on the young women
is called the gas princess.
207
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:57,540
At the time, her dubious deals
with Russian businessmen
208
00:20:57,700 --> 00:21:00,160
even lead to an
investigation by Interpol.
209
00:21:00,540 --> 00:21:03,160
In both Russia and
Ukraine, the richest
210
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,950
oligarchs make their
fortunes in energy.
211
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:10,040
I believe the Americans
created the oligarchs.
212
00:21:10,450 --> 00:21:15,990
I was working in Russia in a
mass privatization program,
213
00:21:15,990 --> 00:21:18,200
where we were handing
out certificates
214
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,500
in one room to the
workers in factories
215
00:21:20,500 --> 00:21:22,580
and they were then
selling them to
216
00:21:22,580 --> 00:21:24,660
the general director
of the factory
217
00:21:24,660 --> 00:21:27,830
for a bottle of vodka and ten
dollars in the next room.
218
00:21:27,990 --> 00:21:29,990
And I can remember
having a discussion
219
00:21:29,990 --> 00:21:32,410
with one of the very
senior people from USAID
220
00:21:32,410 --> 00:21:36,700
and I said "This is crazy, we're
just making this man very rich."
221
00:21:37,500 --> 00:21:39,450
This person turned
to me and said,
222
00:21:39,450 --> 00:21:41,370
Martin you don't understand.
223
00:21:41,370 --> 00:21:44,580
I have a briefing from the
president of the United States
224
00:21:44,580 --> 00:21:46,200
to kill communism.
225
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,580
The only way we're going
to kill communism
226
00:21:48,580 --> 00:21:50,910
is by killing the
economic basis of it."
227
00:21:51,830 --> 00:21:54,620
Exactly the same thing
happened in Ukraine.
228
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,910
The process of privatization
was different
229
00:21:57,910 --> 00:22:00,910
but there was no control
over the privatization.
230
00:22:00,910 --> 00:22:02,910
Therefore it was a carve up.
231
00:22:02,910 --> 00:22:05,500
The law was so badly
worded you could
232
00:22:05,500 --> 00:22:07,910
drive a brigade of
tanks through it.
233
00:22:07,910 --> 00:22:10,750
Some of them grew rich
at the point of a gun,
234
00:22:10,750 --> 00:22:12,080
some of them grew rich
235
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,990
because they were extremely
good businessmen.
236
00:22:14,990 --> 00:22:16,450
Some of them just happened to be
237
00:22:16,450 --> 00:22:19,330
the right person in the right
place at the right time.
238
00:22:19,870 --> 00:22:21,990
Since independence the
Mafia and banditry
239
00:22:21,990 --> 00:22:23,830
have thrived in Donietsk,
240
00:22:23,830 --> 00:22:26,000
at the heart of the coal
industry in the DOMBASS.
241
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,040
Kuchma's privatisations
242
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,830
also legalised these new
businessmen bandits.
243
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,250
In return, they promise
him obedience.
244
00:22:33,700 --> 00:22:36,160
One of the bright young men who
is making a name for himself
245
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:38,990
in this sinister world
is Rinat Akhmetov.
246
00:22:39,620 --> 00:22:41,750
He is the protege of the
Godfather of Donietsk,
247
00:22:41,750 --> 00:22:44,450
the sponsor of the
football team Shaktar.
248
00:22:44,660 --> 00:22:47,540
Akhmetov's benefactor is
mysteriously assassinated
249
00:22:47,540 --> 00:22:49,660
in the stadium built
for his club.
250
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:54,540
Akmetov inherits not only the
club, but his whole estate.
251
00:22:54,950 --> 00:22:57,200
The president and the
security service
252
00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:58,870
would collect intelligence
253
00:22:58,870 --> 00:23:01,200
on the corruption undertaken
by the oligarchs
254
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,750
and those files would
be kept under wraps
255
00:23:03,750 --> 00:23:06,450
just as long as the oligarchs
256
00:23:06,450 --> 00:23:09,250
were politically loyal
to the president.
257
00:23:09,500 --> 00:23:11,870
If they stepped out of line,
the files would come out
258
00:23:11,870 --> 00:23:13,450
and they would go on trial.
259
00:23:13,910 --> 00:23:15,620
So it was a blackmail state.
260
00:23:15,990 --> 00:23:17,500
St Sophie's Cathedral
261
00:23:17,500 --> 00:23:20,370
belongs to all orthodox
churches in Kiev.
262
00:23:20,750 --> 00:23:23,080
On the 18th of July 1995
263
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:27,080
the Ukrainian orthodox community
tries to bury its patriarch.
264
00:23:27,410 --> 00:23:30,330
But the Russian orthodox
church bars the passage.
265
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,700
Kuchma sends in
the riot police.
266
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:42,830
CHAOTIC ORCHESTRAL MUSIC
267
00:23:43,450 --> 00:23:45,750
In despair, the
congregation buries him
268
00:23:45,750 --> 00:23:47,660
outside the walls
of the cathedral.
269
00:23:47,870 --> 00:23:50,950
CHAOTIC ORCHESTRAL MUSIC
270
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:52,540
Repression is back
271
00:23:52,540 --> 00:23:55,080
and Kuchma clearly shows
that his convictions
272
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,040
lie with the Russian
orthodox church,
273
00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,200
the powerful tool of the KGB.
274
00:23:59,660 --> 00:24:02,580
CROWD AMBIENCE
275
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:06,990
Fraud helps Kuchma win the
presidential elections in 1998.
276
00:24:07,250 --> 00:24:08,910
His clan's control of resources,
277
00:24:08,910 --> 00:24:11,990
corruption the muzzling of
the media, repression...
278
00:24:11,990 --> 00:24:14,200
have all seriously
tarnished his image.
279
00:24:14,750 --> 00:24:16,870
He needs a good
honest prime minister.
280
00:24:18,830 --> 00:24:20,990
Victor Yushchenko, the head
of the national bank,
281
00:24:20,990 --> 00:24:23,330
and creator of the new
currency, the Gryvna,
282
00:24:23,330 --> 00:24:25,120
is considered by
Forbes magazine to be
283
00:24:25,120 --> 00:24:26,990
one of the best
economists in the world.
284
00:24:27,250 --> 00:24:29,870
A fervent patriot, he's
the man for the job.
285
00:25:20,580 --> 00:25:30,250
CHATTERING
286
00:26:31,620 --> 00:26:33,660
On the 3rd of November 2000,
287
00:26:33,830 --> 00:26:36,040
a mutilated and headless body
288
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,580
is found in a shallow grave
in a forest near Kiev.
289
00:26:39,330 --> 00:26:42,660
The man is wearing the chain
and ring of Georgiy Gongadze,
290
00:26:42,660 --> 00:26:44,990
a journalist from
Ukrainski Pravda.
291
00:26:45,950 --> 00:26:48,700
Gongadze's caustic
articles and interviews
292
00:26:48,700 --> 00:26:51,080
regularly incriminate
the president.
293
00:26:51,910 --> 00:26:54,040
The media belongs
to Kuchma's clan
294
00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:56,040
and few voices dare speak out.
295
00:26:56,870 --> 00:26:58,120
For Gongadze's colleagues
296
00:26:58,120 --> 00:27:00,750
this is a pre meditated
assassination.
297
00:27:01,540 --> 00:27:04,500
500 journalists demonstrate
against the regime
298
00:27:04,500 --> 00:27:06,540
and demand freedom
of the press.
299
00:27:54,540 --> 00:27:58,040
TAPE RECORDING
300
00:27:58,330 --> 00:28:00,910
Melynchenko wants the
recordings to be made public.
301
00:28:01,370 --> 00:28:04,290
The leader of the socialist
party, Oleksandr Moroz
302
00:28:04,290 --> 00:28:06,200
has Kuchma's voice validated.
303
00:28:44,580 --> 00:28:50,700
CROWD CHANTING
304
00:28:54,990 --> 00:28:59,450
Gongadze, the lack of freedom of
the press, enough is enough.
305
00:28:59,750 --> 00:29:01,870
The crowd takes to the floor.
306
00:29:01,870 --> 00:29:05,160
The movement is called
Ukraine without Kuchma.
307
00:29:06,830 --> 00:29:13,700
ORCHESTRAL MUSIC
308
00:29:14,870 --> 00:29:17,290
In parliament, Kuchma's clan
makes the most of the moment
309
00:29:17,290 --> 00:29:18,950
to fire Yulia Tymoshenko
310
00:29:18,950 --> 00:29:21,080
who has become the
minister for energy.
311
00:29:52,870 --> 00:29:56,250
Yulia Tymoshenko is arrested
on the 13th of February, 2000.
312
00:29:57,620 --> 00:29:59,830
On the 2nd of April,
thanks to the
313
00:29:59,830 --> 00:30:01,950
anti Kuchma demonstrations,
she is liberated.
314
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:05,330
When she leaves
prison she has a new
315
00:30:05,330 --> 00:30:06,870
traditional Ukrainian hairstyle.
316
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:16,910
The next on the list
is Victor Yushchenko.
317
00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:19,990
He is fired from his
position of prime minister
318
00:30:19,990 --> 00:30:22,700
Yulia Tymoshenko and
Victor Yushchenko's parties
319
00:30:22,700 --> 00:30:25,200
join forces in opposition
to the regime.
320
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,990
Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin.
321
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:33,950
APPLAUSE
322
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,080
On the 7th of May 2000.
323
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:39,000
Vladimir Putin is elected
president of Russia.
324
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,540
For Kuchma, Putin is a God send.
325
00:30:41,790 --> 00:30:44,450
The Gongadze affair has
left deep scars,
326
00:30:44,450 --> 00:30:47,950
the population is angry, his
clan is less manageable,
327
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:49,870
he needs help from outside,
328
00:30:50,580 --> 00:30:52,700
and Putin couldn't ask for more.
329
00:30:53,370 --> 00:30:55,750
His aim is to rebuild
an empire for Russia
330
00:30:55,950 --> 00:30:58,250
like in the good old
days of the USSR.
331
00:30:58,750 --> 00:31:01,410
Kuchma makes more trips to
Moscow than to his datcha.
332
00:31:01,870 --> 00:31:04,080
Commercial deals are
made by the dozen
333
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:07,160
and the delicate problem of
gas is left in the cupboard,
334
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:08,580
for the time being...
335
00:31:09,370 --> 00:31:11,080
For the 10th anniversary
of Independence
336
00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,160
a massive parade is organised
337
00:31:13,370 --> 00:31:15,290
in honour of Vladimir Putin.
338
00:31:16,330 --> 00:31:19,160
But another matter
preoccupies the two men.
339
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:22,450
Kuchma cannot stand for
presidency a third time.
340
00:31:22,620 --> 00:31:24,120
They need to prepare
a candidate
341
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:27,500
who is pro Russian and can
be easily manipulated.
342
00:31:52,830 --> 00:31:55,830
Viktor Yanukovych is the leader
of the Party of Regions
343
00:31:55,830 --> 00:31:58,410
created in 2001 in
the East of Ukraine
344
00:31:58,410 --> 00:32:01,040
by the oligarch Rinat Akhmetov,
345
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:04,870
the political sponsor
of Viktor Yanukovych.
346
00:32:06,580 --> 00:32:08,290
APPLAUSE
347
00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:41,870
The files concerning the
criminal past of Yanukovych,
348
00:32:41,870 --> 00:32:44,750
sentenced twice for
robbery, are carefully
349
00:32:44,750 --> 00:32:47,330
kept under wraps by
the KGB in Moscow.
350
00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:51,790
As planned, prime minister
Yanukovych becomes
351
00:32:51,790 --> 00:32:54,290
the presidential candidate
for the regime.
352
00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:56,790
Kuchma publicly
declares that these
353
00:32:56,790 --> 00:32:59,250
elections will be the
most terrifying ever.
354
00:33:04,290 --> 00:33:10,040
APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
355
00:33:10,580 --> 00:33:13,450
The candidate in the orange
camp is Viktor Yushchenko.
356
00:33:13,450 --> 00:33:16,540
Supported by the West he
stands for democracy,
357
00:33:16,540 --> 00:33:19,250
justice and Ukrainian values,
358
00:33:19,250 --> 00:33:22,160
and he has the charisma
of a John F Kennedy.
359
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,660
On the 5th of September,
late in the evening,
360
00:33:27,870 --> 00:33:29,910
Yushchenko leaves Kiev
for a dinner party
361
00:33:29,910 --> 00:33:32,620
organised by a member of the
Ukrainian secret services
362
00:33:32,620 --> 00:33:34,200
at his datcha.
363
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:36,660
Over the next few days
364
00:33:36,660 --> 00:33:38,620
Yushchenko's body is
covered with an
365
00:33:38,620 --> 00:33:40,410
infected blister like eruption.
366
00:33:40,910 --> 00:33:42,580
His doctors immediately
dispatch him
367
00:33:42,580 --> 00:33:44,990
to Vienna to consult
specialists.
368
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:48,500
According to the tests
Yushchenko has been poisoned
369
00:33:48,500 --> 00:33:49,790
by a form of Dioxine
370
00:33:49,790 --> 00:33:53,950
which has belated effects on
body organs and leads to death.
371
00:33:54,950 --> 00:33:57,410
The cruel irony is
that this poison
372
00:33:57,410 --> 00:33:59,700
used by the Americans
in the Vietnam war
373
00:33:59,700 --> 00:34:01,790
is called agent orange.
374
00:34:02,370 --> 00:34:05,910
But it is also
fabricated by the KGB.
375
00:35:41,620 --> 00:35:43,950
Just to show that the
attacks are not selective
376
00:35:43,950 --> 00:35:45,990
a fortnight later,
Putin's PR team who
377
00:35:45,990 --> 00:35:47,910
are running the
Yanukovych campaign
378
00:35:47,910 --> 00:35:50,700
stage an attack on
their candidate
379
00:35:50,700 --> 00:35:52,620
in a pro Yushchenko town.
380
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,200
The grenade is an egg
381
00:36:14,660 --> 00:36:18,620
Kuchma and Putin are beginning
to have a few doubts
382
00:36:20,910 --> 00:36:23,620
On the 21st November, the
second round of elections
383
00:36:23,620 --> 00:36:25,910
confronts the two
main candidates.
384
00:36:26,660 --> 00:36:29,040
Everyone is expecting
election fraud.
385
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:31,750
Ukrainian NGOs like PORA
386
00:36:31,910 --> 00:36:35,950
are trained by American NGOS
to obtain democratic elections.
387
00:36:38,500 --> 00:36:41,500
Lots of observers are
coming into our country
388
00:36:41,620 --> 00:36:47,040
to check if our elections
were falsified or not.
389
00:36:47,330 --> 00:36:52,750
But in our country we were able
to falsify the elections
390
00:36:52,750 --> 00:36:57,790
and to falsify the freedom
of speech during 70 years.
391
00:36:57,790 --> 00:37:02,750
Do you think it is very easy
to come and put an end to it?
392
00:37:02,750 --> 00:37:04,750
Just because you
come from the West ?
393
00:37:04,750 --> 00:37:09,580
It's not so easy because
we have lots of practice.
394
00:37:09,790 --> 00:37:13,450
I was at home in my native
town in Tchernigiv
395
00:37:13,830 --> 00:37:16,200
and I was an observer.
396
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:21,580
We counted the votes all
night, like several hours
397
00:37:21,580 --> 00:37:24,250
we were counting and
then I went home.
398
00:37:24,500 --> 00:37:27,330
When I woke up
in the morning
399
00:37:27,330 --> 00:37:28,790
my mum was shocked.
400
00:37:28,790 --> 00:37:30,870
And then I realised
something happened.
401
00:37:30,870 --> 00:37:33,660
And she said Iryna, you
know, you should go...
402
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:42,790
PRESS ANNOUNCEMENT
403
00:38:03,370 --> 00:38:07,790
CHATTERING
404
00:38:09,620 --> 00:38:11,750
I was one of those
young people
405
00:38:11,750 --> 00:38:14,330
who didn't care about
politics at all.
406
00:38:14,330 --> 00:38:19,200
I would rather watch some
TV show than the news.
407
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:22,660
Why would I? I was like,
24, 25.
408
00:38:22,660 --> 00:38:27,910
But, when this happened... in
2004, and they announced that
409
00:38:28,990 --> 00:38:31,000
Yanukovych was our president.
410
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,830
We all knew it was
such a lie and
411
00:38:33,830 --> 00:38:36,040
we could see it
with our own eyes.
412
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:02,250
So the president
was Yanukovych!
413
00:39:02,250 --> 00:39:04,370
I started crying.
414
00:39:04,370 --> 00:39:07,080
I went outside and that's where
415
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:09,450
everything started
for me personally.
416
00:39:09,450 --> 00:39:13,040
I spent the whole night
on Kreshchiatic street
417
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:15,500

started together.

placed on the roads
by the regime,
421
00:39:22,910 --> 00:39:25,870
hundreds and thousands of
Ukrainians flock to the capital
422
00:39:25,870 --> 00:39:30,250
by bus, by car, by
train, on foot.
423
00:39:30,830 --> 00:39:34,410
Kreshchiatic, the main
street in Kiev and Maidan,
424
00:39:34,410 --> 00:39:36,870
Independence square,
fill up with tents.
425
00:39:37,370 --> 00:39:39,250
A tent for each region.
426
00:39:39,500 --> 00:39:42,500
Maidan becomes a

Old ladies with nothing to eat,
gave their last crust of bread,
430
00:40:22,660 --> 00:40:30,990
but as the days went by we
became more and more organised.
431
00:40:30,990 --> 00:40:33,830
We conquered the
Ukrainian House
432
00:40:33,950 --> 00:40:39,910
where people who were freezing
cold could sleep a little

00:40:39,910 --> 00:40:45,080
warm up, take
medicine, eat something.
434
00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:48,660
You could see on Maidan
women bringing tea and
435
00:40:48,660 --> 00:40:51,450
little sandwiches and they gave
436
00:40:51,450 --> 00:40:54,580

asked to be paid.

it was about those people who

went on the Maidan.
442
00:41:34,620 --> 00:41:36,750
They were risking themselves,
443
00:41:36,750 --> 00:41:39,080
they knew they could
lose their jobs.
444
00:41:40,330 --> 00:41:45,120
At some point, they knew that
there was risk of fight.
445
00:41:45,540 --> 00:41:47,620
There was a danger
of being killed.
446
00:42:00,540 --> 00:42:02,200
The first 7 days
of the revolution
447
00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:03,870
are the most dangerous.
448
00:42:04,500 --> 00:42:06,750
The population knows
that Ukrainian troops
449
00:42:06,750 --> 00:42:08,990
have been ordered to
encircle the capital.
450
00:42:09,540 --> 00:42:12,370
These soldiers are their
brothers, their cousins.
451
00:42:12,370 --> 00:42:14,330
They have been given
real bullets.

violence can break
out at any moment,

but they started to shout
East and West together.

00:44:49,370 --> 00:44:50,580
It was very important,
476
00:44:50,580 --> 00:44:53,990
because the West of
Ukraine was for Yushchenko
477
00:44:53,990 --> 00:44:56,660

was for Yanukovych.

00:47:18,990 --> 00:47:20,040
but strategic.
518
00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:21,450
Show the bear you're its friend.
519
00:48:46,790 --> 00:48:49,000
As expected, on his
return from Moscow,
520
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:51,500
President Yushchenko names
Yulia Tymoshenko,
521
00:48:51,500 --> 00:48:54,830
the muse of the Orange
Revolution, Prime Minister.

Second in charge, Yulia quickly
524
00:50:07,410 --> 00:50:09,750
takes control of
government affairs.
525
00:50:10,370 --> 00:50:12,330
The aim of the Orange
team is to build
526
00:50:12,330 --> 00:50:14,200
a solid partnership with
Europe and the West.
527
00:50:14,450 --> 00:50:16,700
NATO offers Ukraine membership
528
00:50:16,950 --> 00:50:19,950
but the population only wants
to join the European Union
529
00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:21,540
which remains silent.
530
00:50:22,120 --> 00:50:23,990
Within the country,
Yushchenko and Tymoshenko
531
00:50:23,990 --> 00:50:26,580
major task is to
attack corruption.
532
00:50:26,990 --> 00:50:30,660
They start by re privatizing the
Soviet steelworks Krivoristhal.
533
00:50:30,790 --> 00:50:33,750
Acquired for a fraction of its
value by Kuchma's son in law
534
00:50:33,750 --> 00:50:38,040
Leonid Pinchuk and Rinat
Akhmetov in 2004.

In an international auction,
538
00:50:45,290 --> 00:50:48,040
the steelworks go to
Mital Steel for a profit
539
00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:50,160
of 4 billion dollars
for the state.
540
00:50:52,950 --> 00:50:54,830
There is general
chaos amongst the
541
00:50:54,830 --> 00:50:56,750
other oligarchs
in Kuchma's clan.
542
00:50:56,750 --> 00:50:58,870
They all expect the axe to fall.
543
00:50:59,750 --> 00:51:03,620
They were fleeing to Moscow,
to Monaco, fleeing to America,
544
00:51:03,620 --> 00:51:05,660
they were committing suicide.
545
00:51:05,660 --> 00:51:08,580
Some of them believed there
would be a pogrom against them.
546
00:51:08,580 --> 00:51:09,750
They used that word.
547
00:51:10,250 --> 00:51:11,540
The people also want revenge
548
00:51:11,540 --> 00:51:14,370
for the murder of journalist
Georgiy Gongadze in 2000.
549
00:51:14,700 --> 00:51:17,290
An enquiry confirms
Kuchma's implication.
550
00:51:17,290 --> 00:51:19,330
and yet, the case
is put on hold.
551
00:52:46,080 --> 00:52:47,450
Then comes the shock,
552
00:52:47,450 --> 00:52:48,790
divorce.
553
00:52:48,790 --> 00:52:50,870
Only 6 months after
her nomination
554
00:52:50,990 --> 00:52:53,330
Victor Yushchenko dismisses
Yulia Tymoshenko
555
00:52:53,330 --> 00:52:54,620
and her government.

He didn't explain
why he did like that
557
00:53:16,830 --> 00:53:20,040
and so it was the most
important question,
558
00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:22,410
you know, because
people wanted to know.
559
00:53:22,870 --> 00:53:27,450
They wanted to know and they
had the right to know because
560
00:53:27,450 --> 00:53:32,290
if you are going to provide
all democracy in this country,
561
00:53:32,290 --> 00:53:33,830
you have to be open.
562
00:53:34,040 --> 00:53:37,910
I couldn't recognize the
person who I knew since '92.
563
00:53:39,080 --> 00:53:41,660
He became very different,
564
00:53:42,410 --> 00:53:49,910
it's like, all good
and nice things
565
00:53:49,910 --> 00:53:52,790
which make him the most
popular politician
566
00:53:52,790 --> 00:53:55,830
had been suddenly replaced by
567
00:53:55,830 --> 00:53:57,750
irritation to criticism,
568
00:53:57,750 --> 00:54:00,990
by irritation to journalists.
569
00:54:00,990 --> 00:54:02,950
He refused to open up.
570
00:54:03,160 --> 00:54:05,950
He refused to drop
all the privileges.
571
00:54:42,410 --> 00:54:44,410
20 years is not a
long period of time
572
00:54:44,410 --> 00:54:46,580
for an independent country
but at the same time,
573
00:54:46,580 --> 00:54:50,580
you can say that many missed
opportunities happened
574
00:54:50,580 --> 00:54:54,620
and those missed
opportunities are
575
00:54:54,830 --> 00:54:58,330
things such as, of course,
the Orange Revolution,
576
00:54:58,330 --> 00:54:59,370
and Viktor Yushchenko.
577
00:54:59,370 --> 00:55:02,660
Every historian
and every writer,
578
00:55:02,660 --> 00:55:04,580
Ukrainian and Western,
will always say
579
00:55:04,580 --> 00:55:07,620
this was a missed opportunity
for Victor Yushchenko
580
00:55:07,620 --> 00:55:09,830
to become Ukrainian's
George Washington.

Only a year after the
revolution,
584
00:56:19,750 --> 00:56:22,540
Orange power is already
on the way out,
585
00:56:22,540 --> 00:56:25,580
and gas, the blood of
the new liberal Russian Empire,
586
00:56:25,580 --> 00:56:28,040
becomes a real
political weapon.
587
00:56:28,830 --> 00:56:30,660
In August 2004,
588
00:56:30,660 --> 00:56:32,790
Russia had signed a long term,
589
00:56:32,790 --> 00:56:37,120
five year, literally
unchangeable, agreement
590
00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:39,910
with Ukraine, about gas prices
591
00:56:39,910 --> 00:56:41,950
but a couple of
months afterwards,
592
00:56:41,950 --> 00:56:44,200
Russian authorities
dramatically increased the
593
00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:46,500
price of the gas
supply to Ukraine,
594
00:56:46,500 --> 00:56:47,990
more than 3 times.
595
00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:51,910
It was intended to show
the Ukraine and Europe
596
00:56:51,910 --> 00:56:53,910
how powerful Russia is
597
00:56:53,910 --> 00:56:55,910
in terms of gas supplies.
598
00:56:56,450 --> 00:56:57,990
Price doesn't matter here.
599
00:56:57,990 --> 00:57:01,370

switch off the gas.

RosUkrEnergo.
604
00:57:13,830 --> 00:57:15,250
The idea is that cheaper gas
605

from all parts of
the former USSR
606
00:57:17,370 --> 00:57:20,830
be stocked at the border
between Russia and Ukraine,
607
00:57:20,830 --> 00:57:25,200
mixed with Russian gas, and then
sold abroad at the same price.
608
00:57:25,910 --> 00:57:28,410
The vast profits go
straight into the pockets
609

of Russian and
Ukrainian oligarchs,

00:57:37,660 --> 00:57:40,080
a day before they made
an agreement in Moscow
614
00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:42,620
and Yushchenko could have
done anything he wanted
615
00:57:42,620 --> 00:57:46,540
in terms of what he could have
demanded from Putin in Moscow.
616
00:57:46,540 --> 00:57:50,330
He didn't have to go and
take in the RosUkrEnergo
617
00:57:50,330 --> 00:57:52,660
because he had a very strong
position vis a vis Putin.
618
00:57:52,660 --> 00:57:54,580
Putin was very scared
that on January 4th,
619
00:57:54,580 --> 00:57:57,120
there would be an EU meeting
which would denounce him.
620
00:57:57,120 --> 00:57:59,910
And instead, Yushchenko went
for the corrupt option,
621
00:57:59,910 --> 00:58:00,990
RosUkrEnergo..
622
00:58:00,990 --> 00:58:03,330
That gas corruption
623
00:58:03,330 --> 00:58:05,540
fed into the Party of Regions,
624
00:58:05,540 --> 00:58:07,290
fed into the Our
Ukraine faction in
625
00:58:07,290 --> 00:58:08,990
parliament, including
his brother.
626
00:58:09,080 --> 00:58:12,120
It fed into the
presidential secretariat.
627
00:58:12,120 --> 00:58:15,160
And the only political force
in the Ukrainian parliament
628
00:58:15,160 --> 00:58:16,990
that fought against
that gas intermediary
629
00:58:16,990 --> 00:58:18,080
was Tymoshenko.

In the new constitution,
634

the future Prime
Minister will have

Viktor Yanukovych, the loser
of the Orange Revolution,

Yulia Tymoshenko's past as a

01:02:34,080 --> 01:02:35,700
played by the rules of the game
695
01:02:35,700 --> 01:02:38,250
and the rules of the game
were pretty loose back then,
696
01:02:38,250 --> 01:02:39,830
it was the Wild West.
697
01:02:39,830 --> 01:02:41,580
But I do believe that
there was a time,
698
01:02:41,580 --> 01:02:43,080
and I think the record shows
699
01:02:43,080 --> 01:02:45,000
that she made an effort
700
01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:48,580
to squeeze out these gas
trading intermediaries,
701
01:02:48,580 --> 01:02:51,200
to squeeze out these
non transparent
702
01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:54,040
transactions in the
electricity sector,
703
01:02:54,040 --> 01:02:56,990
gas sector, coal sector
704
01:02:56,990 --> 01:02:59,330
and she was met with fierce
resistance by people
705
01:02:59,330 --> 01:03:01,250
who have vested interests
in these things.
706
01:03:24,700 --> 01:03:27,080
5 years have passed since
the Orange Revolution
707
01:03:27,080 --> 01:03:30,370
and the next presidential
elections are in January 2010.
708
01:03:31,040 --> 01:03:32,990
Yulia Tymoshenko and
Victor Yanukovych
709
01:03:32,990 --> 01:03:34,790
are the most popular candidates.
710
01:03:35,580 --> 01:03:37,120
In December 2009,
711
01:03:37,120 --> 01:03:39,450
an international symposium
is held in Kiev
712
01:03:39,450 --> 01:03:41,500
to talk about Ukraine's future.
713
01:03:42,450 --> 01:03:44,040
Prime minister Yulia Tymoshenko
714
01:03:44,040 --> 01:03:47,250
is the only candidate to
accept the invitation.
715
01:04:27,620 --> 01:04:30,160
Prime Minister
Tymoshenko is
716
01:04:30,160 --> 01:04:33,500
very bright
and she is gutsy.
717
01:04:33,500 --> 01:04:35,120
She is unafraid
718
01:04:35,120 --> 01:04:37,200
and she is charismatic.
719
01:04:37,200 --> 01:04:39,330
I think the politician
in many respects
720
01:04:39,330 --> 01:04:40,910
that a lot of people
in this country
721
01:04:40,910 --> 01:04:42,330
have been waiting for.
722
01:04:42,830 --> 01:04:45,250
And she plays well on the
world stage as well.
723
01:04:45,250 --> 01:04:47,200
That said, she's an incumbent
724
01:04:47,200 --> 01:04:49,200
when the economy is in the tank,
725
01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:51,120
and it doesn't matter
what country you're in
726
01:04:51,120 --> 01:04:52,200
when you're the incumbent
727
01:04:52,200 --> 01:04:53,580
and the economy is in the tank,
728
01:04:53,580 --> 01:04:55,410
it is very, very
hard to get elected.
729
01:04:55,410 --> 01:04:57,120
If you want to
cultivate popularity
730
01:04:57,120 --> 01:04:58,290
in this part of the world,
731
01:04:58,290 --> 01:05:01,120
put elites in jail...
make them accountable.
732
01:05:01,120 --> 01:05:02,950
That's what the public wants.
733
01:05:02,950 --> 01:05:05,450
They want to see some
justice after 20 years.
734
01:05:05,450 --> 01:05:08,660
And I think of the candidates,
735
01:05:08,660 --> 01:05:11,160
particularly of the 2 candidates
that go to the 2nd round
736
01:05:11,160 --> 01:05:12,870
only she understands that.
737
01:05:12,870 --> 01:05:16,450
I mean, if Yanukovych
comes to power
738
01:05:16,450 --> 01:05:17,990
in the 2nd round
of the elections
739
01:05:17,990 --> 01:05:19,370
and becomes Ukraine's
president,
740
01:05:19,370 --> 01:05:21,370
then the oligarchs
have taken over!
741
01:05:21,870 --> 01:05:23,750
By February 2010,
742
01:05:23,750 --> 01:05:25,910
Yulia Tymoshenko and
Viktor Yanukovych
743
01:05:25,910 --> 01:05:27,950
are neck to neck in the polls.
744
01:05:28,250 --> 01:05:29,580
Travelling across the country,
745
01:05:29,580 --> 01:05:32,370
Yulia draws the crowds in
her galvanizing speeches,
746
01:05:32,370 --> 01:05:35,450
playing to the heartstrings
of the population.
747
01:05:36,830 --> 01:05:38,950
Victor Yanukovych
has bought himself
748
01:05:38,950 --> 01:05:41,580
a diploma in economy,
and learnt Ukrainian.
749
01:05:41,750 --> 01:05:43,250
His style is different,
750
01:05:43,250 --> 01:05:44,500
few words,
751
01:05:44,500 --> 01:05:46,540
slightly mature pop stars
752
01:05:47,160 --> 01:05:49,990
a few Mafiosi pals from Donetsk
753
01:05:49,990 --> 01:05:51,580
an accordion
754
01:05:51,580 --> 01:05:53,160
and coach loads of young people
755
01:05:53,160 --> 01:05:55,330
paid to attend the meetings.
756
01:05:57,120 --> 01:05:59,990
Victor Yushchenko's fans
are few and far between.
757
01:06:48,950 --> 01:06:50,700
Viktor Yanukovych is
elected president
758
01:06:50,700 --> 01:06:54,080
with 3 and a half percent more
votes than Yulia Tymoshenko.
759
01:06:54,790 --> 01:06:56,370
She contests the results.
760
01:06:57,950 --> 01:07:01,120
In the RADA, the opposition
seats remain empty.
761
01:07:02,660 --> 01:07:06,910
PATRIOTIC MUSIC
762
01:07:07,660 --> 01:07:10,450
People didn't vote for him
because they thought he was
763
01:07:10,450 --> 01:07:13,120
going to be the greatest
thing since sliced bread.
764
01:07:13,370 --> 01:07:17,250
They voted against
Yushchenko and Tymoshenko.
765
01:07:17,250 --> 01:07:20,450
So there was a very big
negative anti vote here.
766
01:07:20,910 --> 01:07:24,000
MUSIC
767
01:07:24,580 --> 01:07:28,120
APPLAUSE
768
01:07:59,790 --> 01:08:03,080
In May 2010, a few months
after the elections,
769
01:08:03,080 --> 01:08:06,080
Russia decides the time
has come to move in.
770
01:08:06,250 --> 01:08:09,950
President Medvedev, Robin,
in the Robin Batman duo,
771
01:08:09,950 --> 01:08:12,540
comes to Ukraine for a
long official visit.
772
01:08:13,080 --> 01:08:16,080
Medvedev is definitely less
frightening than Putin
773
01:08:16,080 --> 01:08:19,450
and Yanukovych hits it off
with him from day one.
774
01:08:19,450 --> 01:08:21,870
The two of them sign various
commercial deals
775
01:08:21,870 --> 01:08:24,700
and Yanukovych feels on equal
grounds with his new friend...
776
01:08:27,330 --> 01:08:29,410
...almost.
777
01:08:30,910 --> 01:08:33,160
The Black sea Russian
naval base in the Crimea
778
01:08:33,160 --> 01:08:36,250
has always been high on the
Kremlin's list of priorities.
779
01:08:36,580 --> 01:08:39,580
It is only on lease to
Russia until 2017.
780
01:08:40,660 --> 01:08:42,540
Yanukovych doesn't
take much persuading
781
01:08:42,540 --> 01:08:45,160
to prolong the lease for
another 25 years.
782
01:08:45,790 --> 01:08:47,990
But parliament
must have its say.
783
01:08:48,450 --> 01:08:50,500
The fraud in RADA is grotesque.
784
01:08:51,330 --> 01:08:53,700
Guerilla warfare breaks
out between the opposition
785
01:08:53,700 --> 01:08:55,660
and the Party of the Regions.
786
01:08:56,080 --> 01:08:58,540
But the vote in favour
of the proposition...
787
01:08:58,540 --> 01:08:59,790
just passes,
788
01:09:00,250 --> 01:09:02,540
and fraud is the
winner of the day.
789
01:09:02,990 --> 01:09:05,370
The Kremlin can rub its hands.
790
01:09:05,830 --> 01:09:07,120
By doing that,
791
01:09:07,120 --> 01:09:10,540
he believed that
Russia would remain
792
01:09:11,120 --> 01:09:13,000
very appreciative,
793
01:09:13,000 --> 01:09:15,830
loyal, supportive and happy,
794
01:09:15,830 --> 01:09:18,080
and we would get cheaper gas.
795
01:09:19,790 --> 01:09:22,450
And therefore in April,
he signed that agreement
796
01:09:22,450 --> 01:09:23,450
which is called
797
01:09:23,450 --> 01:09:26,450
swapping national
security for cheap gas .
798
01:09:26,990 --> 01:09:29,750
Relations with Russia
didn't become better.
799
01:09:29,750 --> 01:09:34,410
Yanukovych is shown as
a clown on Russian TV,
800
01:09:34,410 --> 01:09:37,290
and the economy is not
getting cheaper gas
801
01:09:37,290 --> 01:09:42,080
and Russia is demanding a
total drop of independence.
802
01:09:42,540 --> 01:09:45,250
The government is
trying to make the deal,
803
01:09:45,620 --> 01:09:48,990
moves with the Kremlin, trading,
804
01:09:49,290 --> 01:09:53,750
Russia's interests at the
expense of our sovereignty,
805
01:09:53,750 --> 01:09:55,540
and some other political deals.
806
01:09:56,990 --> 01:09:58,580
Probably they didn't understand
807
01:09:58,580 --> 01:10:01,370
the nature of the
Kremlin leaders.
808
01:10:01,370 --> 01:10:04,870
They would not accept half,
or a quarter of the price.
809
01:10:05,120 --> 01:10:08,990
They would gain only the
whole of the Ukraine.
810
01:10:09,160 --> 01:10:10,790
This is their objective.
811
01:10:11,540 --> 01:10:13,410
One of the determined
supporters of Russia
812
01:10:13,410 --> 01:10:16,290
is the minister of
Education, Dimitry Tabachnik.
813
01:10:16,750 --> 01:10:19,500
Russian history and Ukrainian
history are one , he says,
814
01:10:19,500 --> 01:10:21,620
and must be taught
through Russian eyes .
815
01:10:21,620 --> 01:10:23,700
He renews school history books.
816
01:11:06,040 --> 01:11:16,660
MILITARY MUSIC
817
01:11:17,450 --> 01:11:18,950
In October 2010,
818
01:11:18,950 --> 01:11:22,540
Dominique Strauss Kahn,
director of the IMF,
819
01:11:22,540 --> 01:11:24,750
promises a loan of
15 billions dollars
820
01:11:24,750 --> 01:11:27,330
to the apparently
progressive new government
821
01:11:27,450 --> 01:11:29,580
to consolidate public finances.
822
01:11:31,080 --> 01:11:32,750
This money will not
go to the people,
823
01:11:32,750 --> 01:11:35,120
it will be siphoned
off by the oligarchs
824
01:11:35,120 --> 01:11:37,450
and the country's
debts will increase.
825
01:11:37,950 --> 01:11:39,910
As with Vladimir Putin in 2000,
826
01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:42,370
the West seems oblivious
of the real nature
827
01:11:42,370 --> 01:11:44,330
of the new president of Ukraine
828
01:11:44,330 --> 01:11:45,750
and his priorities.
829
01:11:46,700 --> 01:11:48,040
Once the deal's signed,
830
01:11:48,040 --> 01:11:51,040
the new regime starts
to show its real face.
831
01:11:52,040 --> 01:11:53,580
In November 2010,
832
01:11:53,580 --> 01:11:56,580
Yanukovych's government
introduces tax reforms,
833
01:11:56,580 --> 01:11:58,500
penalizing small businesses,
834
01:11:58,500 --> 01:12:00,450
the backbone of the
shadow economy .
835
01:12:00,990 --> 01:12:03,790
A demonstration is organized
by civil society movements
836
01:12:03,790 --> 01:12:05,700
and called Maidan 2.
837
01:12:06,330 --> 01:12:09,540
No longer trusted, politicians
are not welcomed.
838
01:12:09,870 --> 01:12:11,540
The new tax law
839
01:12:11,540 --> 01:12:15,000
is so damaging to small and
medium size enterprises
840
01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:19,750
that 800,000 companies have
disappeared in the last year.
841
01:12:21,580 --> 01:12:25,040
These reforms benefit big
business. The oligarchs.
842
01:12:25,870 --> 01:12:28,080
These people want it all.
843
01:12:28,080 --> 01:12:30,790
They're not prepared to
accept a little bit of it.
844
01:12:30,790 --> 01:12:33,450
They don't just
want to be big fish
845
01:12:33,450 --> 01:12:34,540
or medium sized fish
846
01:12:34,540 --> 01:12:35,700
in a very big pond.
847
01:12:35,700 --> 01:12:38,700
They want to be massive
fish in a very tiny pond.
848
01:13:13,450 --> 01:13:17,500
There is this idea that we can
have it all, we can take it all.
849
01:13:17,500 --> 01:13:20,410
We can just simply take over.
850
01:13:20,410 --> 01:13:23,200
I mean, an example is
the Kiev gold factory,
851
01:13:23,200 --> 01:13:27,040
when the director was visited by
police a couple of weeks ago
852
01:13:27,040 --> 01:13:29,370
and told you re going
to sell your factory"
853
01:13:29,370 --> 01:13:31,620
"and here is who you re
going to sell it to.
854
01:13:31,620 --> 01:13:33,540
And he said I don't want
to sell my factory ,
855
01:13:33,540 --> 01:13:35,580
and they said we ll
come back next week
856
01:13:35,580 --> 01:13:37,250
and you'll sell it.
857
01:13:37,250 --> 01:13:39,580
And they came back
next week, 75 of them,
858
01:13:39,580 --> 01:13:42,790
they beat him up, they
wrecked his offices
859
01:13:42,790 --> 01:13:45,000
and they said now, we
will be back on Friday
860
01:13:45,000 --> 01:13:47,450
with the papers for you
to sell the factory.
861
01:13:48,330 --> 01:13:49,830
He's left. Gone.
862
01:13:49,830 --> 01:13:52,250
Now, when you've got the police
863
01:13:52,250 --> 01:13:55,540
organized in such banditry,
864
01:13:55,750 --> 01:13:57,160
and then you couple that with
865
01:13:57,160 --> 01:13:58,990
what's going on with
the road police
866
01:13:58,990 --> 01:14:00,620
and the tax police,
867
01:14:00,620 --> 01:14:03,450
this is organized
state banditry.
868
01:14:04,160 --> 01:14:08,450
MUSIC
869
01:14:33,500 --> 01:14:36,330
Violence and state
banditry in business,

01:14:36,330 --> 01:14:38,700
exploitation and slavery
871
01:14:38,700 --> 01:14:41,120
in the darker parts
of the coal industry.
872
01:14:41,290 --> 01:14:43,660
Every year hundreds
die anonymously,
873
01:14:43,870 --> 01:14:46,950
while the elite of the country
gets richer and richer.

876
01:16:07,700 --> 01:16:11,120
For some like Yuri Lutsenko,
former minister of the Interior,
877
01:16:11,120 --> 01:16:13,660
it is the first night in prison.
878
01:16:13,660 --> 01:16:15,870
He is accused of
having embezzled 5000
879
01:16:15,870 --> 01:16:18,540
dollars from the State
to pay his driver.
880
01:16:48,830 --> 01:16:51,040
The real reason behind
Lutsenko's imprisonment
881
01:16:51,040 --> 01:16:53,500
is his leading role in
the Orange Revolution and
882
01:16:53,500 --> 01:16:56,750
his battle against the Mafiosi
oligarch groups in Donietsk.
883
01:16:57,290 --> 01:16:59,040
He is detained under
no legal grounds
884
01:16:59,040 --> 01:17:01,990
until his trial and he
is not the only one.
885
01:17:02,500 --> 01:17:05,990
20 members of the opposition
suffer the same fate.
886
01:17:05,990 --> 01:17:07,870
In November 2011,
887
01:17:07,870 --> 01:17:10,990
Yanukovych names an old
friend, Victor Pshonka,
888
01:17:10,990 --> 01:17:12,870
as general Prosecutor.
889
01:17:13,250 --> 01:17:16,250
His job is to take charge
of the opposition.
890
01:17:41,370 --> 01:17:42,950
Yulia Tymoshenko
is summoned to the
891
01:17:42,950 --> 01:17:44,250
General Prosecutor's office
892
01:17:44,250 --> 01:17:45,830
every day for 6 months.
893
01:17:47,120 --> 01:17:49,620
There are three main criminal
charges against her,
894
01:17:49,990 --> 01:17:51,790
for having spent
the money from the
895
01:17:51,790 --> 01:17:53,290
Kyoto summit to buy ambulances,
896
01:17:53,290 --> 01:17:54,660
proved false,
897
01:17:54,830 --> 01:17:57,990
for spending IMF money to
pay retirement pensions,
898
01:17:57,990 --> 01:17:59,160
also dropped,
899
01:17:59,410 --> 01:18:01,910
and, thirdly, for
having indebted Ukraine
900
01:18:01,910 --> 01:18:03,750
in the 2009 gas deal
901
01:18:03,910 --> 01:18:05,200
with Putin.
902
01:18:24,950 --> 01:18:27,200
On the 11th of May 2011,
903
01:18:27,200 --> 01:18:29,910
Yulia is detained by the
General Prosecutor.
904
01:18:53,990 --> 01:18:58,290
CAMERAS CLICKING
905
01:18:58,660 --> 01:19:00,450
I hope to use this
opportunity to convey
906
01:19:00,450 --> 01:19:02,870
to President Yanukovych
our concern regarding
907
01:19:02,870 --> 01:19:06,120
recent cases, of what is
perceived as selective justice
908
01:19:06,120 --> 01:19:09,750
in Ukraine, against members
of previous administrations,
909
01:19:09,750 --> 01:19:11,950
notably Mrs Tymoshenko.
910
01:19:12,580 --> 01:19:14,500
Two possibilities lie
open for Ukraine
911
01:19:14,500 --> 01:19:16,200
to increase its
business abroad,
912
01:19:16,200 --> 01:19:19,080
the deep free trade agreement
with the European Union
913
01:19:19,080 --> 01:19:20,370
or the customs agreement with
914
01:19:20,370 --> 01:19:22,750
Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan.
915
01:19:23,200 --> 01:19:25,160
The agreement with
Europe would open far more
916
01:19:25,160 --> 01:19:27,040
doors to Ukrainian oligarchs,
917
01:19:27,040 --> 01:19:29,250
but the Europeans are hesitant.
918
01:19:49,160 --> 01:19:51,200
The Europeans, from the get go,
919
01:19:51,200 --> 01:19:53,080
have been disingenuous
920
01:19:53,080 --> 01:19:56,290
about how much they value
Ukraine's independence.
921
01:19:56,290 --> 01:19:58,790
When governments have
had to make choices,
922
01:19:58,790 --> 01:20:01,580
they've gone with a much
broader opinion which says,
923
01:20:01,580 --> 01:20:03,080
at the end of the day,
924
01:20:03,080 --> 01:20:05,450
it's more important to
have good relations with Russia
925
01:20:05,450 --> 01:20:06,580
then with Ukraine.
926
01:20:06,580 --> 01:20:09,200
And if having good
relations with Russia
927
01:20:09,200 --> 01:20:13,620
means pushing Ukraine back
into the Russian orbit,
928
01:20:13,620 --> 01:20:16,160
that's a decision we're
willing to make.
929
01:20:32,410 --> 01:20:35,410
For Putin, his demand was,
930
01:20:35,410 --> 01:20:39,950
you have to chose between
joining the CIS custom's union
931
01:20:39,950 --> 01:20:42,250
of Russia, Belarus
and Kazakhstan
932
01:20:42,250 --> 01:20:43,990
or signing the deep free trade
933
01:20:43,990 --> 01:20:45,990
agreement with the
European Union.
934
01:20:45,990 --> 01:20:48,040
You can't join both
because you only can
935
01:20:48,040 --> 01:20:49,750
be in one custom's union
at the same time.
936
01:20:50,410 --> 01:20:54,200
The recent visit of Putin
was sort of hysterical.
937
01:20:54,200 --> 01:20:57,750
He was not simply pressing
but actually demanding
938
01:20:57,750 --> 01:21:00,990
that Ukraine drops
the idea of signing
939
01:21:00,990 --> 01:21:02,580
the free trade
agreement with Europe
940
01:21:02,580 --> 01:21:05,410
and signs not only
the custom's union
941
01:21:05,410 --> 01:21:06,990
but the single
economic space
942
01:21:06,990 --> 01:21:10,000
becomes part of one
big market, Russia.
943
01:21:10,000 --> 01:21:13,910
Putin openly despises Yanukovych
for his criminal past
944
01:21:13,910 --> 01:21:16,330
and he is irritated by the fact
945
01:21:16,330 --> 01:21:18,700
that this stubborn criminal
946
01:21:18,700 --> 01:21:21,450
is trying to play
some kind of game
947
01:21:21,450 --> 01:21:23,120
with the Europeans
948
01:21:35,950 --> 01:21:39,750
Russia can then come along
and control Ukraine,
949
01:21:39,750 --> 01:21:41,950
not politically but financially.
950
01:21:42,080 --> 01:21:44,700
Russians don't play
chess for nothing,
951
01:21:44,700 --> 01:21:47,160
they're always five
or six steps ahead.
952
01:21:47,160 --> 01:21:49,950
Looking at where
Russia goes from here,
953
01:21:50,200 --> 01:21:52,700
it has to control
the energy supply.
954
01:21:52,990 --> 01:21:54,370
Once it controls that,
955
01:21:54,370 --> 01:21:57,790
it controls the energy
supply to Europe.
956
01:21:58,200 --> 01:22:00,290
Russia has always had
its eyes on Ukrainian
957
01:22:00,290 --> 01:22:01,830
gas pipelines to Europe.
958
01:22:02,500 --> 01:22:06,580
On the 24th of September
2011, Independence Day,
959
01:22:06,580 --> 01:22:10,700
Yanukovych's good friend,
Medvedev, delivers an ultimatum,
960
01:22:10,700 --> 01:22:14,160
either Ukraine pays off the
gas debts, which it can't,
961
01:22:14,160 --> 01:22:18,120
or it sells its gas pipelines
to Russia to cover its debts.
962
01:22:18,870 --> 01:22:22,620
For Ukraine, Russian gas
prices are higher than ever.
963
01:22:23,250 --> 01:22:25,790
We don't need
Russian gas at all.
964
01:22:25,790 --> 01:22:29,750
Let them establish the
price at ten million
965
01:22:29,750 --> 01:22:32,250
or billion, per
thousand cubic metres,
966
01:22:32,250 --> 01:22:33,620
it doesn't matter.
967
01:22:33,620 --> 01:22:37,910
Because Ukraine, unlike
many European nations,
968
01:22:37,910 --> 01:22:40,870
has abundant energy resources,
969
01:22:40,870 --> 01:22:42,700
natural gas, oil,
970
01:22:42,700 --> 01:22:47,330
hydro regeneration,
nuclear power stations,
971
01:22:47,330 --> 01:22:49,410
some of the biggest in Europe.
972
01:22:49,410 --> 01:22:52,580
We have coal for 400 plus years,
973
01:22:52,580 --> 01:22:56,410
we have strategic
pipelines to transport
974
01:22:56,410 --> 01:22:59,540
Asian and Russian gas to Europe,
975
01:22:59,540 --> 01:23:05,450
we can balance our energy needs
without Russian gas at all.
976
01:23:05,990 --> 01:23:08,160
Ukraine may have
abundant resources,
977
01:23:08,160 --> 01:23:10,120
but it is like an
underdeveloped country
978
01:23:10,120 --> 01:23:11,830
with no concept of state.
979
01:23:11,950 --> 01:23:14,120
Resources are of no
use to the nation,
980
01:23:14,120 --> 01:23:16,620
without political will
and long term development
981
01:23:16,620 --> 01:23:18,410
by the state for the state.
982
01:23:18,410 --> 01:23:20,200
- Ukraine could easily produce
983
01:23:20,200 --> 01:23:23,990
over a hundred million
tons of grain a year.
984
01:23:24,700 --> 01:23:27,160
That would bankrupt
European farmers completely
985
01:23:27,160 --> 01:23:29,410
and make Europe
totally dependent
986
01:23:29,410 --> 01:23:31,330
for food supply from Ukraine.
987
01:23:32,080 --> 01:23:33,330
Now Russia knows that
988
01:23:33,700 --> 01:23:38,080
and by controlling that,
they then control Europe.

is greed has just
gone out of control.
995

Ukraine's football stadiums
for the Europe 2012 games
996
01:24:02,870 --> 01:24:04,700
are the most
expensive in Europe!
997
01:24:04,700 --> 01:24:06,540
And yet the workers
are paid some
998
01:24:06,540 --> 01:24:08,290
of the lowest
salaries in Europe.
999
01:24:08,290 --> 01:24:12,700
So this is all theft from the
government on dodgy contracts,
1000
01:24:12,700 --> 01:24:14,870
of course most of
those building
1001

a coal and steel billionaire

he is the living proof of how

The Colosseum in
Roman times was the way
1008
01:25:03,910 --> 01:25:08,080
to distract the masses from
problems in the Roman Empire,
1009
01:25:08,250 --> 01:25:10,830
it's the same kind of thing...
1010

give them lots of

With the Euro 2012

president Yanukovych declares
that Ukraine's beautiful women

are the greatest asset for the
country's tourist industry.
1021

Ukraine's greatest tourist asset
does not necessarily agree.

The 31 year old judge has

The resignation in
his face and his eyes

says much for the
repression in the country.
1029
01:26:35,040 --> 01:26:39,500
The judge now is completely
dependent on the prosecution
1030
01:26:39,500 --> 01:26:41,870
and on the president's men.
1031
01:26:41,870 --> 01:26:43,160
He cannot be independent,
1032
01:26:43,160 --> 01:26:47,160
and this young man who
has been put there

01:26:47,160 --> 01:26:49,620
is also under pressure

RosUkrEnergo from the market,
1039
01:27:11,290 --> 01:27:13,250
Mrs Tymoshenko
decided to accept
1040
01:27:13,250 --> 01:27:15,700
unprofitable conditions
for Ukraine.
1041
01:27:15,700 --> 01:27:17,660
This is pure personal revenge
1042
01:27:17,660 --> 01:27:20,750
against somebody who
became a threat
1043
01:27:20,750 --> 01:27:23,290

in power and in influence
around Yanukovych
1046
01:27:29,410 --> 01:27:31,700
and because they
are now in power,
1047
01:27:31,830 --> 01:27:34,870
for them, its time for revenge
against Tymoshenko
1048
01:27:34,870 --> 01:27:39,990
who, in 2009, removed the gas
intermediary RosUkrEnergo
1049
01:27:39,990 --> 01:27:43,450
and that meant the loss of up
to 7 billion dollars a year
1050
01:27:43,450 --> 01:27:45,040
for that group of people.
1051
01:28:05,250 --> 01:28:07,200
Accused of contempt of court,
1052
01:28:07,200 --> 01:28:09,410
Yulia Tymoshenko is arrested
1053
01:28:09,410 --> 01:28:12,700
and held in prison for the
rest of the proceedings.
1054
01:28:17,040 --> 01:28:18,700
The trial takes place
in the summer,
1055
01:28:18,910 --> 01:28:20,990
in a small cramped courtroom.
1056
01:28:21,580 --> 01:28:23,080
The heat is unbearable.
1057
01:28:23,620 --> 01:28:25,290
When one of Yulia
Tymoshenko's lawyers
1058
01:28:25,290 --> 01:28:27,040
complains about the conditions,
1059
01:28:27,040 --> 01:28:28,580
they are evicted.
1060
01:28:30,370 --> 01:28:33,250
The judge orders the militia to
empty the room of journalists,
1061
01:28:33,250 --> 01:28:35,700
members of the
opposition and family.

For the rest of the trial,
1064
01:28:45,080 --> 01:28:49,080
Yulia Tymoshenko is left
to defend herself alone.
1065
01:28:50,370 --> 01:28:52,330
There are 30 witnesses
for the defence,
1066
01:28:52,580 --> 01:28:54,250
only three are heard.
1067
01:28:55,580 --> 01:28:57,990
There are 33 for
the prosecution,
1068
01:28:58,080 --> 01:28:59,700
28 are heard.
1069
01:29:05,160 --> 01:29:07,950
On the 11th of October of 2011,
1070
01:29:07,950 --> 01:29:10,000
Yulia Tymoshenko is found guilty
1071
01:29:10,000 --> 01:29:11,870
of having made an
illegal gas deal
1072
01:29:11,870 --> 01:29:14,540

Yulia Tymoshenko is sentenced

01:30:25,830 --> 01:30:28,620
a fine of 186 million dollars,

the sum lost for the State,
1080
01:30:30,330 --> 01:30:33,330
and a ban from any political
function or elections.
1081
01:30:35,200 --> 01:30:36,450
Across the Western world,
1082
01:30:36,450 --> 01:30:38,830
this trial is condemned
as being a show trial
1083
01:30:38,830 --> 01:30:41,660
and the sentence a
political persecution.
1084
01:30:45,200 --> 01:30:47,160
In prison, strange
bruises appear
1085
01:30:47,160 --> 01:30:49,290
all over Yulia
Tymoshenko's body.
1086
01:30:49,290 --> 01:30:52,830
The pain in her back is so bad
that she can no longer walk.
1087
01:30:53,250 --> 01:30:56,540
She is refused the right
to see her own doctors.
1088
01:30:59,750 --> 01:31:01,450
When the torture
commission comes to see
1089
01:31:01,450 --> 01:31:03,160
the conditions of
her imprisonment,
1090
01:31:03,160 --> 01:31:05,370
she is quickly
transferred to a new,
1091
01:31:05,370 --> 01:31:07,330
freshly painted,
comfortable room
1092
01:31:07,330 --> 01:31:11,790
and filmed, against her
will, by the State TV.
1093
01:31:12,540 --> 01:31:15,700
Of course, they can orchestrate
any kind of accident,
1094
01:31:15,700 --> 01:31:18,500
you know, there are so
many ways now to kill a person
1095
01:31:18,500 --> 01:31:22,410
without any signs of
disease or substances.
1096
01:31:22,410 --> 01:31:25,950
She is very strong and
I really hope that
1097
01:31:25,950 --> 01:31:30,250
she'll continue to be strong for
us and, you know, for Ukraine.

In fact, what they've done
is reunite the country
1100
01:31:44,990 --> 01:31:48,080
because the concerns
that the people have
1101
01:31:48,080 --> 01:31:50,750
in the East and the West
of Ukraine are identical.
1102
01:31:50,750 --> 01:31:53,540
There is no difference anymore
between East and West,
1103
01:31:53,540 --> 01:31:56,500
the political divide
which was invented,
1104
01:31:56,500 --> 01:31:59,200

is united by its
1105
