Sputnik obtained the correspondence of the chat participants, which showed that the participants discussed a swift takeover of the Verkhovna Rada and attracting the military to their side.
"The most important action that we will need to pull off lightning fast is the takeover of the VR [Verkhovna Rada] at a certain point," one of the chat participants wrote.
"When the staff is recruited, fighters are trained, the mass will be ready," another chat participant said.
"There must be support from the military. Without it, nothing will work. The main driving force. [They] will say from the trenches that [they are] with us, and people will follow," one more chat participant said.
"Especially when the people see that the military is at the helm and the rest of the military is following them - they automatically take the right side," another chat participant added.
