Orwellian: @FoxNews interviews ex-leader of far-right Right Sector in Odesa in #Ukraine & calls him Ukrainian activist who "fought #Russian militants in 2014." He is charged with murder. Right Sector perpetrated Odesa massacre in 2014.
@FoxNews The US mainstream media now openly glorifies and whitewashes the far right in #Ukraine while omitting their far right background and involvement in deadly violence. researchgate.net/publication/30…

Another big question now is whether #Russian military forces that are deployed by Putin to separatist-controlled #Donbas would fire or come under fire from #Ukraine forces. This can lead to armed Ukraine-Russia conflict in #Donbass & other parts of Ukraine #UkraineRussiaCrisis
My article shows that Russian military forces were covertly deployed in support of #Donbas separatists in Aug 2014 & Feb 2015. #Russian military then fought, encircled & defeated #Ukrainian forces & far-right led units during Ilovaisk & Debaltsevo battles.

Far right organizations & their volunteer battalions & paramilitary units "had a significant role in the civil war in Donbas but a comparably minor role in fighting with several regular Russian military units during direct military interventions by Russia" researchgate.net/publication/30…

As I predicted in my research-based interviews, publications & social media posts, #Putin just recognized independence of #Donetsk & #Luhansk separatist republics in #Donbas in #Ukraine

My @MintPressNews comment is republished in Albanian media: “People who take at face value the Western media coverage would have a very distorted perception of the Ukraine conflict and its origin,” Ivan Katchanovski... told MintPress..."

"They omit or deny that there is a civil war in Donbas even though the majority of scholars who [have] published or presented concerning this conflict in Western academic venues classify it as a civil war with Russian military intervention." #UkraineRussiaCrisis #UkraineCrisis
"The Western media also omitted that recent ‘unity marches’ in Kharkiv and Kyiv and a staged training of civilians, including a grandmother, were organized and led by the far right, in particular, the Neo-Nazi Azov [Battalion].”

My @CNNBrasil interview re Maidan massacre: "In a Zoom conversation, Professor Katchanovski told me the result of the investigation he carried out into the Maidan massacre, an essential event in the destabilization and change of government in Ukraine." 1/ cnnbrasil.com.br/internacional/…
@CNNBrasil My @CNNBrasil interview: "He analyzed video footage, the result of ballistic tests that show bullet trajectories, spoke with witnesses and has no doubt: the protesters killed in the square were murdered by snipers who were positioned in buildings controlled by the protesters" 2/
My @CNNBrasil interview: "“In fact,” he said, “two of these snipers were captured by the protesters and, after being handed over to the leaders of the movement, they disappeared.” Three months of protests ended with the murder of around 50 protesters on February 20, 2014." 3/

Yes, @ABC video showed instructors from neo-Nazi-led Azov regiment leading this propaganda show. But ABC & other Western media deliberately omitted involvement of Azov, whose funding & training was banned by US Congress. This is 3d time that Western media glorify far-right shows.
And @ABC called neo-Nazi-led Azov Regiment, whose funding & training was banned by US Congress, "Ukraine special forces."
