Guys, glory to Ukraine!
Let me tell you. We came here as a sotnia (squadron).
We are not in any organization, we're ordinary people of Ukraine
who came to assert the law. We're not from Right Sector or Maidan Defense,
we're just a fighting sotnia. I want to tell you that
we ordinary people ask of our politicians, standing behind me,
"No way - NO WAY! - will Yanukovych be president for a whole year.
By ten o'clock tomorrow, he must be out!"
The first demand. The first demand.
My colleague from Yavoriv was shot, leaving a wife and young child,
and our leaders shake that killer's hand! Shame!
One more. Dear colleagues, countrymen, Ukrainians,
I honestly tell you, I swear,
I'm with no organisation, my sotnia is standing there
and we were in that building.
We got the turning point! We gave our politicians the chance
to become future ministers, presidents,
And they don't want to fulfil one condition: get that convict out?
Friends, I won't keep talking, I don't want to add to
the stupid words we've been fed here for the last two and a half months.
I don't believe in these difficult political processes
that they talk about. 77 people lost their lives, and they negotiate.
I beg of you: back me up on this - on behalf of my sotnia
where my father came - unless there's a statement by ten o'clock tomorrow
that Yanukovych will resign, we're going on an armed assault! I swear!
