Russian forces cross Ukrainian border 22.02.2022 morning

[Colonel Frank Grimes]

We can do an small experiment if you want to test how they lie to the citizens of each country and in what way, because they are lying to all of us.

But we will need the help of some Russian members.

I don't question whether governments lie. I question whether something like arresting thousands of people for having a particular view can be hidden from the rest of the world so easily.

"Ukrainian nationalists have set up firing positions, deployed armored vehicles, artillery pieces and MLRS in Kramatorsk in the Donetsk People's Republic, in densely populated residential areas, from where they systematically shell nearby settlements, provoking return fire from units of the Russian Armed Forces and the People's Militia of the Donetsk People's Republic," he said.

According to Mizintsev, the military forbids civilians from leaving their homes, using them as human shields. Nationalists also use educational institutions in Yasnaya Polyana of the Donetsk People's Republic and Guty, Kharkov region, as strongholds, he added.

Mizintsev stressed that such actions by the Ukrainian authorities show complete indifference to the fate of their own citizens and absolute disregard for all moral norms and principles of international humanitarian law.

We already discussed it here, me and few other people don't even have TV set at home. But generally Russian official propaganda is boring, not effective and always outdated. The informational war is maintained by enthusiasts, bloggers, stringers much better than by the state. This one you pasted is for target audience made of 60+ people.

You're absolutely right. I think Russia really lacks in the information war, they are way behind the West in that, unfortunately. But of course the West pretends that Russian propaganda is so dangerous and everywhere. They are lying, of course, and labels everything "Russian propaganda" that goes against their narratives or exposes the truth about their lies.

Lots of people in Nikolaev are sorry that there was no Kherson scenario. Now Ukraine won't let them out from its embrace that easy.
