Mrs Yanukovych |
I draw your attention to the following sentence from C. J. Chivers' New York Times article:
Several regions in eastern Ukraine threatened to seek autonomy as a way to try to preserve the tainted vote, and Mr. Yanukovich's wife made televised comments now infamous in Ukraine, saying that the protesters were being paid and were under the influence of drug-laced oranges. (Her statements were greeted with gratitude by the opposition on Kiev's streets, if only as a cause for laughter.) C. J. Chivers, Putin says he will accept the will of the Ukrainian people, New York Times International, 07-Dec-2004 www.nytimes.com/2004/12/07/international/europe/07putin.html |

In her own unique way, the wife of Viktor Yanukovych takes an interest in the health of the protestors. |

Her statement became one of the top news stories in the political life of the nation � the first public appearance of the former second lady of the land at a meeting in Donetsk. [The President's wife would be the first lady; the wife of the former Prime Minister would be the former second lady.] |

� Piles of orange oranges. There was a song "Orange sky," you understand, it went like this. Yes, just like that... it was a nightmare. And I want to tell you that those oranges weren't ordinary. Those oranges were spiked! People take an orange, eat it, take another. There. And the hand reaches out again and again. Just now, when I drove here at five o'clock, it said on the news that in the square, a massive poisoning had erupted, requiring hospital treatment, they are taking people to the hospital with meningitis! |

The news service of the head office of health and medical protection of Kyiv did not record a single case of illness due to meningitis. Instead the following was recorded: 1927 people required medical attention on 30 November, among whom were 1550 with severe respiratory-tract viral infection, 4 with injuries, 40 people hospitalized. This from among several hundred thousand demonstrators. |
