“With the re-election of Pro-Russian sad Pedro Agramonte by the PACE President, COE Secretary General’s speech is another indication of how deep the fear and appeasement of the aggressor penetrated into the hearts of Europeans and paralyze their minds. The threat of a new barbarism on its Eastern border Europeans in a sort of mental paralysis to see persistently do not want. But the outrage of ordinary citizens a clear separation of their elites is perceived as a real threat to its dominance,” wrote Lyashko.
