Yesterday (14), in as move many see as illegal, Zelensky revoked the citizenship of Odesa’s mayor and instituting a military rule in the important Black Sea port.
Mayor Trukhanov was targeted for supposedly ‘having a Russian passport’.
With a military administrator chosen by him in charge of the city, Zelensky would obtain more direct control over the city.
Reuters reported:
“Hennadiy Trukhanov, 60, an elected official, said he would take his case to court, denying having a Russian passport and insisting that he remained mayor. Ukrainian officials are prohibited from holding dual citizenship.”
Zelensky is seizing power before the elections.
In order to control rigged elections in Ukraine, it is necessary to own large cities.

Zelensky vowed to appoint someone soon to head up the military administration of the city.
“’Too many security issues in Odesa have remained unresolved for too long’, he said.
The remarks echoed his comments from last week, in which he accused Odesa’s ‘local leaders’ of failing to do enough to protect residents from flooding last month that killed 10 people.”

The Ukrainian domestic security agency SBU stated that it had evidence Trukhanov had a valid Russian passport, posting a picture on Telegram that many see as a crude falsification.
COUP WITH FAKED PASSPORT!

“Trukhanov said in a video address: ‘I will appeal the decision to strip me of my Ukrainian citizenship in the Supreme Court. And, if that is not enough, I will appeal to the European Court of Human Rights’.”

Trukhanov became a target of Ukrainian Neo-Nazis for speaking out against the Ukrainian movement of ‘de-Russification’ and the dismantling of Odessa’s statues to Russia’s Catherine the Great – who founded the port in 1794 – and to Alexander Pushkin, the Russian playwright.
RT reported:
“In an interview with the New York Times […] Trukhanov said that he was against renaming the city’s central Pushkin Street, named after the famous 19th century Russian poet Alexander Pushkin.
‘I would not support that. [Odessa] is the intercultural capital of Ukraine. I am worried by the growth of hatred of all things Russian’, the mayor claimed.”
