Under the sweeping language of President Barack Obama’s
executive order issued today, critics of the US-backed coup in Ukraine
could find themselves being banned from entering the United States.
The executive order suspends “entry into the United States, as immigrants or nonimmigrants, of such persons” who fulfil the following criteria;
“[A]ny person determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State:(i) to be responsible for or complicit in, or to have engaged in, directly or indirectly, any of the following:(A) actions or policies that undermine democratic processes or institutions in Ukraine.
As CNS News’ Craig Bannister notes,
this would effectively ban entry for anyone deemed to be a ‘Russian
sympathizer’, or anyone who has expressed a view similar to Moscow,
which was that the Kiev uprising was a violent coup d’état and not a
democratic uprising, since that could easily be characterized as an
indirect action or policy which undermines Ukraine’s post-coup
government.
By extrapolation, this would mean anyone who has drawn attention to the mountain of evidence that the Kiev protest groups were funded by the U.S. State Department in
concert with the US Agency for International Development (USAID) and
the US government-backed National Endowment for Democracy.
It would also ensnare anyone who has highlighted the leaked phone call in
which US Assistant Secretary of State for Europe Victoria Nuland was
caught red handed plotting with top diplomat Geoffrey Pyatt to pick
Ukraine’s future puppet leaders. Nuland specifically approved Arseniy
Yatsenyuk, who later became Prime Minister after the coup.
The executive order could also target critics of the
fact that both Nuland and John McCain met with the leader of the
neo-nazi affiliated Svoboda Party before the election,an organization
that was subsequently handed three top positions within the newly formed Ukrainian government despite its clear links to fascism and anti-Semitism.
The irony of Washington targeting anyone who took
actions to “undermine democratic processes or institutions in Ukraine”
is painful given that the Kiev revolt led directly to the overthrow of a
democratically elected government.
The broad language of the executive order is also a
chilling move towards discriminating against people for their political
opinions. Obama is seemingly intent on mirroring the United Kingdom,
where people like radio host Michael Savage are banned from entering the country and labeled “extremists” for daring to dissent from political correctness.
