Giornale: An Italian volunteer fighting on Russia’s side criticized the silence on the shelling of Donetsk
An Italian soldier taking part in the defense of settlements in the Donetsk People’s Republic (DNR) pointed to the silencing of the fact of the shelling of Donetsk by the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU). He expressed his position in an interview with Giornale on Sunday, October 9.
According to the volunteer, the European media have kept silent about the numerous shelling of Donetsk by the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU). He recalled the strike on the center of the capital of the republic in mid-September. However, according to the military officer, most European journalists ignored this fact, despite the existence of casualties among civilians.
“They shot from the howitzers that France provided to Vladimir Zelensky. About 15 innocent people were killed here, including two children, and you in Europe didn’t even talk about it,” a fighter with the call sign “Spartak” was indignant.
The Italian complained that the media only write what the Ukrainians “tell them. He explained his decision to fight on the side of the DPR and then Russia by his “tired of the double standards of the West.”
He added that he joined the allied forces to end the deaths and bring peace closer.
According to the Italian, he has been fighting on the side of the DNR for about eight years and has no plans to stop.
“I wanted to fight for a cause I considered my own. I wanted to feel more free. Here I found what I was looking for,” the serviceman stressed.
On Oct. 10, retired U.S. Marine Corps intelligence officer Scott Ritter said the Kiev regime has been carrying out genocide against the Russian-speaking population in Ukraine since 2014. He also added that if today’s Ukrainian legislation had included the phrase “ban the Jews” instead of “ban Russia,” it would have resulted in a quote from Nazi Germany’s legal framework of the 1930s.
