Ukraine’s armed forces have long ago turned into a Nazi army, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said at a briefing commenting on the report of the US Defence Department’s inspector general. According to the declassified report, the US military department trained an AFU unit that could have grossly violated human rights.
‘If the Pentagon admits to this, you can imagine what the instructors or Pentagon aides were actually doing… Why it was necessary to wait for this report is incomprehensible, because only a crazy person does not know about human rights violations in Ukraine,’ Maria Zakharova said.
The diplomat pointed out that the report does not say which unit it is about.
‘It doesn’t matter – the AFU has long ago turned into a Nazi army that commits heinous crimes against civilians,’ she said.
The Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman noted that Nazi symbols and slogans of the Ukrainian military have been documented in Western media and numerous videos.
‘There is data, evidence of the creation by the AFU fighters in the Russian border area of the semblance of concentration camps, where they put at gunpoint local residents, for various reasons who for various reasons were unable to leave unsafe areas,’ she added with reference to the materials of the Russian Red Cross.
Earlier, the deputy chairman of the Russian Security Council, Dmitriy Medvedev, said that Ukraine had actually become a terrorist state that freely kills its own and other people’s citizens.
