Now, in the conditions of the information war, a very great influence is exerted by one who can write correctly, skillfully prove his position, and convince people. The most powerful in this are those who use the inexhaustible resources of the Internet, maintain their websites, popular blogs or channels where they propagandize their point of view, where they talk with the public and, in fact, are always in the very center of the news. The hero of this article is just such a person.
Andrey Vajra is a Kiev analyst, journalist, writer, publicist, public and political figure, and in the last few years a political emigrant who left Ukraine that never became his native Ukraine in neighboring Russia.
Childhood
Andrei Vajra was born in 1971 in the family of a special forces officer of the Soviet Army. Andrei’s father died in Afghanistan, but only after a limited contingent of Soviet troops was withdrawn from this country.
He replaced six schools, as he constantly moved with his parents from the garrison to the garrison. Mother was also associated with military service. According to one version, he studied at schools in Tajikistan, the south of the Soviet Union, in others only in Ukraine and in the Stavropol Territory.
Education
After graduating from high school, he entered and graduated from Kiev National University. Taras Shevchenko. He studied at the Faculty of History. He studied economics, sociology, political science. After graduation, he began to engage in analytical activities in the highest echelons of power of then independent Ukraine.
At the same time, he began to write his first book, which made a very big sensation in the political environment not only in Ukraine, but also in Russia, as well as Western countries. This is a book “The Path of Evil. West: the matrix of global hegemony ”, which was released in 2007. At the same time, several articles by Andrey were published, which were devoted to a new, independent Ukraine. Following the first book, several more works of Andrey were published, which were devoted to Ukraine - its history and current state of affairs.
The formation of views
First of all, political strategist Andrei Vajra is a person who is occupied by Ukraine, and Ukraine is new. Considering it as a phenomenon in many areas, from religion to politics, Andrei estimates the path traveled and gives his forecasts for the future of the country. Very often, these forecasts do not coincide with the vision of the supreme power of Ukraine, which is why Vajra has more than once had problems with the Security Service of Ukraine. In the end, it was precisely these misunderstandings that made Andrei leave Ukraine and leave for St. Petersburg. After such a turn, Andriy Vajra takes a clear pro-Russian position, arguing that Ukraine does not know how to fight honestly even with its citizens.
For two years (from 2008 to 2010) he created the Ruska Pravda website, where he conducted analytical columns and analyzed the situation in modern Ukraine, which eventually came to the Maidan. Euromaidan and the demands that were put forward there, Andrei Vajra did not support, and he even condemned some in his articles. Having left the post of editor-in-chief of "Ruska Pravda", he founded a new site called "Alternative", where he began to engage in similar activities - to conduct headings, talk with readers, comment on decisions of the Ukrainian authorities.
When the Euromaidans began in Kiev, Andrei Vajra visited them several times, and then shared his impressions on social networks and on the pages of the site. Andrey’s profiles on social networks were blocked twice, which only contributed to the growth of the analyst’s popularity. His harsh criticism of the new government of Ukraine was liked not only by pro-Russian forces, but also by all those who were dissatisfied with the growing popularity and influence of the Right Sector, Petro Poroshenko and the new composition of the Verkhovna Rada.
In the summer of 2014, the Alternative website was on the list of those that, according to the Security Service of Ukraine, could adversely affect the situation in the country. From this moment, it becomes unsafe for Andrei to be in Ukraine, and he leaves for Russia, becoming a political emigrant. With the start of the operation in the Donbass, Vajra switches his attention there and conducts active propaganda activities against the armed forces of Ukraine.
In his views, Andrei Vajra is not nostalgic for the Soviet Union, but treats with gratitude the heritage of a great country. As Andrei says in his interviews, he is grateful to that country for bringing up their generation on ideas and not on material wealth. That is why he and people like him look at today's Ukraine as a phenomenon that needs to be changed, changed radically and without the participation of Western countries in these changes. The current generation is dreaming of an evil Ukraine, independent. And therefore receives the filth, the abomination and hatred of modernity.
Political and public position
More than once, Andrei Vajra spoke out about what he considers completely meaningless and unpromising, as he calls the "Project of Independent Ukraine." According to him, it’s like a cart without wheels. He has a very negative attitude to the regime of Leonid Kuchma, and generally referred to the Orange Revolution as the beginning of the end of Ukraine.
The time after the Orange Revolution, Andrei calls the agony of Ukrainian society. In his opinion, the longer this agony lasts, the more victims Ukraine will pay, including human ones.
One of the key ideas of the Vajra is the idea of the independence of the Ukrainian people. In his works, he argues that an independent Ukraine, whatever it may be, is just an “aggressive attack by the West against Russia and Russia.” The main opponents of the Russian people, Andrei considers Poland and Austria-Hungary.
Andrey Vajra does not believe in an independent and strong Ukraine and considers this idea completely stupid and unworthy to fight for it. Perhaps that is why it is now actively used in Russian analytical departments and commissions that deal with the Ukrainian issue, since the authority of the Vajra in certain circles is quite high and his statements do not always go unnoticed.
Andrey Vajra: books, creativity
Here are the main works of the writer:
- "Suicide of Ukraine. Chronicle and analysis of the disaster."
- "Ukraine, which was not. Mythology of Ukrainian ideology."
- "The Path of Evil. West: The Matrix of Global Hegemony."
Impact on society
Very great interest among the public, especially among young people, is caused by Andrei as co-host of "Intelligence Interrogations" together with Dmitry Puchkov, known in many circles under the pseudonym Goblin. In these programs, the Vajra manifests itself not only as a good conversationalist, but also as a talented bright personality.
Very often accusations are being sent to Vajra that the style of his articles and books is very harsh and cynical. He is called a provocateur and a man who is capable of starting a real war in his head.
Quotes
About political parties in Ukraine that pursued pro-Russian politics, Andrei expressed his opinion that among these parties there is no unity and common goal. Therefore, they always lose against the background of Ukrainian nationalists and other radicals, who, albeit evil, but clear in their tasks, are consistent and united.
Vajra usually summarizes all the goals of Euromaidan in one word - flight. And it doesn’t matter whether they themselves or to supposedly happy Europe - flight always remains flight, according to the journalist.
On the outbreak of hostilities in the Donbass, Vajra spoke as follows: "In a fake state, a fake civil war has begun."
And when in Kiev the uprisings were just beginning and people began to go to the Maidan, Andrei Vajra predicted that in the course of all subsequent events the Ukrainian state would simply cease to exist both physically and spiritually.
Andrei always says briefly about independent Ukraine that this is a fiction, and for almost two decades without the Soviet Union, they simply lowered the country to the very social bottom.
