In an exclusive interview with Archyde, former Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko discusses the heated exchange with People’s Deputy Maryana Bezugla at a recent NATO meeting in Brussels. Poroshenko sheds light on the incident, offering his perspective on the deeper divisions within Ukrainian politics.
Archyde (A): Mr. Poroshenko, thank you for joining us today.Let’s dive right into the issue at hand.A public clash between you and deputy Maryana Bezugla at the NATO meeting has sparked a lot of discussion. Could you walk us thru what happened?
Petro Poroshenko (PP): Thank you for having me. What happened in Brussels was unfortunate. I had been observing Deputy Bezugla’s actions throughout the meeting, and I suspected she was trying to undermine our delegation’s unity and create confusion. When I approached her, I merely intended to express my concern and ensure we presented a united front. however, she took it as an attempt to undermine her legitimacy, which was not my intention.
A: She accused you of monopolizing the opposition and not allowing anyone to ask uncomfortable questions. How woudl you respond to that?
PP: I find that accusation baseless and unfair. During my presidency,I always encouraged open debate and criticsm. But there’s a time and place for everything, and during an international meeting, our primary focus should be consensus and unity, not internal political wranglings. I believe Deputy Bezugla’s actions were motivated by personal interests rather than the greater good of Ukraine.
A: Now, let’s address the elephant in the room – the issue of trade with Russia that fueled the escalation. Can you tell us more about your stance on this?
PP: Ukraine’s relations with Russia are complex and delicate. We must find a balance between our economic needs and national security interests. I believe that engaging in pragmatic, targeted trade with Russia, while maintaining our clear stance against annexation and aggression, is the best path forward. However, I disagree with those who advocate for appeasing Russia or compromising our sovereignty.
A: Political analyst Pavel Nuss offered a different account, suggesting Deputy Bezugla attempted to make accusations against the Ukrainian army. Have you heard about this, and if so, what’s your take on it?
PP: I cannot comment on everything that is written or said, especially when it comes from sources with clear biases. What I can say is that any allegations regarding our military must be taken seriously and investigated thoroughly. Our armed forces are on the frontline defending Ukraine, and any attempts to undermine their morale or credibility are unacceptable.
A: The incident has sparked discussions about deep divisions within Ukrainian politics. How do you think this can be overcome?
PP: ukraine is a young democracy with no shortage of passionate opinion leaders. Division is natural and even healthy, as it fosters debate and innovation. However, we must ensure these divisions do not hinder our progress as a nation. It’s crucial for all parties to commit to dialog, mutual respect, and the greater good of Ukraine.
A: Mr. Poroshenko, thank you for your insights. Your critics may argue that you’re part of the problem, given your intense rivalry with President Zelensky. How would you respond to that?
PP: Whenever I’ve worked with president Zelensky, I’ve always done so in the spirit of finding common ground and compromises for the benefit of Ukraine. I’ll continue to do so, even if we disagree on certain issues. Our people deserve nothing less. Criticism is welcome, but let’s focus on actions and results, not personal rivalries.
A: Thank you, Mr. Poroshenko, for your time and candid responses. We appreciate your perspective on these critical issues.
