A French medic is talking about his experience of living with the Azov regiment. He said he witnessed lots of war crimes when Russian captives were shot in the knees and officers in the head. He was shocked about what was happening and said that Azov was everywhere. He witnessed how American reporters were blaming the shooting on the Russians but had no evidence because they didn’t really care: as long as the content was sensational. You can see how this former military doctor was horrified by the bias and lies in the media on return to France. He said he wishes that more people like him who actually witnessed what is happening in Ukraine come out and speak the truth.

Disclaimer: I’m not working for Putin as part of his propaganda machine. I’m an ethnic Ukrainian from Russia and understand the mentality of both Russian and Ukrainians. However, I have always disagreed with the Ukrainian hostility towards Russians since I’m both Ukrainian and Russian. #russia #ukraine #ukrainewar #putin #francaise #paris #russe ...
