Ex-head of his presidential election campaign says that dioxin poisoning of Yushchenko during 2004 elections in #Ukraine was staged with involvement of his close associates, US & UK. Zhvania doesn't provide any corroborating evidence. strana.ua/news/340379-kt…
Chief Military Prosecutor after Maidan & ex-head of Security Service of #Ukraine, who leads pro-Maidan party, both stated that investigation determined that there was no Yushchenko poisoning & that he refused during his presidency to provide blood sample. gordonua.com/news/politics/…
His highly publicized dioxin poisoning, which was blamed by Yushchenko, his associates & much of #Ukrainian & Western media on Yanukovych & #Russia, was instrumental in his victory & "Orange Revolution" that followed falsification of election results in favor of Yanukovych.
My peer-reviewed article noted that Yushchenko "publicly blamed his opponents in the government for poisoning him before the 2004 presidential elections" but "in 2008, Yushchenko accused some of his Orange allies of poisoning him in 2004." researchgate.net/publication/22…
