Sources inside Kharkov say the "next Maidan" will begin with a bloody crackdown in their city

Russia Insider has received reliable reports from inside Kharkov, Ukraine that the neo-Nazi leader of Azov battalion, Andriy Biletsky, is preparing to stage crackdowns against pro-Russia activists across Kiev-controlled Ukraine. His ultimate goal is to march on Kiev.

Our source — the Borotba union underground in Kharkov — kindly provided an English translation of their report. Please be mindful that it was translated in haste in order to reach English audiences.

Kiev After Kharkov

We are personally acquainted with political refugees from Ukraine who have passed this information to us, and we vouch for its accuracy. In other words: This is not a Facebook rumor. It's hard intel from Kiev-controlled Ukraine. Although the entire report is shocking, we'd like to point out that our sources state that American and Polish military advisors are helping these neo-Nazi battalions train.

What they are training for is at least partly explained below.

The leader of Ukrainian Nationalists, Ukrainian MP, Andriy Biletsky has indicated to his subbordinates to begin operations in the Kharkiv region.

Earlier Biletsky was engaged in rallying of ultra-nationalists in this region where they formed an organization "Patriot of Ukraine" on the basis of which the "Azov" National Guard regiment of Ukraine was founded in 2014.

This is the most powerful and representative right-wing structure in Ukraine.

Currently into the Kharkov region is deployed The ”Azov Civilian Corps” (ACC) of Azov regiment. The organization brings together about 600 young activists under the age of 30 years. As soon as possible a civil body is able to organize its' supporters among the population, increasing the number of activists up to 1,000 people.

The activities of this organization is formally under the close supervision of the management of the SBU Kharkov (security service of Ucraine).

The SBU is not interested in further growth of Azov. However, all Kharkovs' people know that a number of SBU managers deliberately enhances nationalists. Some of them give direct guidance on non-interference in the activities of ”Azov Civilian Corps” (ACC).

In their daily activities Kharkov nationalists are actively involved in planning events held by local police - the detention of migrant workers, find pro-Russian citizens, provocations against Russian diplomats around the building of the Consulate General of Russia in Kharkiv.

Such cooperation of nationalists and police due to the fact that the ofice of Minister of Internal Affairs is held by Arsen Avakov, the creator of the National Guard and of the spiritual leader of Ukrainian nationalists.

Avakov was promoting"Azov" and Biletskiy. Everything that is happening right now in Kharkov suggests that the nationalists are increasing their military capabilities.

Also, several Polish and American instructors are situated in Kharkov, on a permanent basis from 2016, teaching nationalists the basics of hand combat, marksmanship and explosives.

We are aware of several addresses at which the preparation of nationalists is going on: Kharkov Belogorsk st. 92; Shevchenko st. 233 B. At the end of January 2017 the nationalist leader A. Biletsky, came to the city of Kharkov from Kiev. During the trip, he solved the problem of consolidating members of ”Azov Civilian Corps” (ACC).

Along the way, he made an agreement for the filling of the ”Azov Civilian Corps” (ACC) by proponents of other nationalist organizations residing in the city of Kharkiv, which actually means an increase in the number of the main nationalist structures to more than 1,000 people. A. Biletskiy personal propaganda has a powerful impact on the ACC members.

It was obvious during his visit to Kharkovs' nationalists' torchlight procession. During the event, at the direction of Biletskiy the nationalists chanted abusive slogans against the Kiev authorities, in particular against ukrainian president Poroshenko.

All this is done to provoke SBU employees and creating panic among the local population. As it is well known, Kharkov is the pro-Russian region. And only one Biletskiys' order to fully loyal to him local nationalists is enough to began massacre the inhabitants of Kharkov, who disagree with present state of affairs.

But the ultimate goal Biletskiy is not the seizure of power in the Kharkiv region.

The region he needs for only starting new protests across Ukraine. After the unrest in Kharkov, armed units of the "Azov" regiment near the Kiev, may proceed to the beginning of the next Maidan in the capital of Ukraine.

A suppression of the pro-Russian population in Kharkov is necessary to Biletskiy as the neutralization of the force, which is the only in Ukraine still preventing nationalist influence to a degree. The continuing decline of President Poroshenko's rating is now widely used for building by A. Biletsky the stronger protest potential among his supporters.

Such conditions have been created before «Evromaydan» in 2013. But in the spring of 2014 pro-Russian population of Kharkov took part in a rallies to protest against the coup in Kiev. In the course of these meetings buildings of state authorities have been captured. Kharkov politicans that supported euromaidan, have been removed from power for two days.

In contrast to the population of Donetsk and Lugansk regions, Kharkov social activists did not have the determination to continue and they were dispersed by a special forces of SBU, arrived fron the other regions of Ukraine.

Despite the fact that most of the pro-Russian activists have been kept long in the Kharkov prison, nationalists never forgave Kharkov, which generally refer to the Kiev authorities as very disloyal because of the deteriorating quality of life in the region.

All this awaits Kharkov in the near future, if we will not attract maximum attention from the international community to this region. By the intention and plans of Biletsky and his nationalist supporters, the following Maidan will not begin in Kiev, but in Kharkov. And the consequences of this could be the bloodiest for the local population.
