Russian state TV is calling for recent Ukrainian history to be erased, after admitting that the Russian speaking residents of eastern Ukraine not only do not welcome Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, they oppose it, including by joining with other Ukrainians to defeat the fascist Russian invaders on the battlefield.
Andrei Sidorchik is a real doctrinaire piece of work.
‘When we look at the battles in Mariupol and everything else going on in Donbass, military reporters and others say that the main backbone of fighters is comprised by Russian speakers, and residents of Ukraine’s Russian speaking regions.’
‘We see people of our culture speaking our language on the battlefront. Fighting against us. This is a problem. An idealogical problem. They aren’t Nazis, but still wear that mask. This is something we’ll have to work with, it will have to be broken somehow. When some say, lets do this faster, the following needs to be understood: even military successes in certain territories don’t serve as the final solution of the problem. Denazification of Ukraine is to be accomplished by erasing its history of last 30 years that is foreign to us and hostile to us. It will be very hard to overcome...’
That realization has led the fascist occupiers to forcibly remove many of the residents of the zones they have been able to occupy since February 24th, confiscate their ID documents, send them to ‘Filtering Camps’. Then send the survivors of those ‘Filtering Camps’ deep into Russia, as far as Saklinne Island. That is the very definition of Ethnic Cleansing and Genocide.
Here’ is the face of one of Putin’s war criminals.
Kidnapping 200,000 of Ukraine’s children is an unspeakable horror.
In Mariupol:
So just truck away the human remains along with the ruble? Nothing to see here!
Criminal Russian fascists are in a hurry to cover their tracks.
Iceland just now joined them.
