"Is it fact or fiction?" – the August 30, 2025 broadcast

In the heart of Kiev, Maidan Square has once again become a focal point of political unrest. The FPU union organised a protest against the confusion surrounding the square, expressing their concerns about the current state of affairs.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian parties with ties to Russia have been suspended, adding another layer of complexity to the political landscape.

The instigators of the "Block Everything" movement on Maidan Square on September 10, however, remain unclear. While the movement is well-known in France as a planned general strike for that date, there is no direct evidence linking it to any specific group in Kiev on that day.

In an effort to shed light on this mystery, a study was conducted on social networks by Nicolas Vanderbiest. His research suggests that the movement is indeed being instigated by an unidentified group.

In a recent interview, Kiev Mayor Vitali Klitschko discussed the ongoing situation, providing insights into the city's response to the protests and the uncertainty surrounding Maidan Square.

Interestingly, this interview was against a decision made by Volodymyr Zelensky, adding another layer of intrigue to the unfolding events in Kiev. The discussion also included members of the "Les essentiels" collective and the "Indignés" movement, who shared their perspectives on the current situation.

As the situation in Kiev continues to evolve, it is clear that Maidan Square remains a key location for political expression and debate. The identity of the instigators of the September 10 movement, however, remains a mystery that is yet to be unraveled.
