This is hands-down the most prolific liar I’ve ever seen. She just lies & lies & lies, constantly & without consequence. Her lies are immediately debunked but invariably gets tens of thousands of retweets regardless

When you serve the interest of empire, the rules are different:

Lesia Vasylenko seems to lie compulsively. Her lie about Sasha Zdanovych is a perfect example, bc if confirmed, it’s tragic enough on its own.

They say he fled Vyshgorod—but she concocted a story that he fled Bucha instead, presumably believing she’d get more attention that way.

Vasylenko is rewarded for her performances with frequent headlines from an admiring & entirely credulous western press. With demand at an all-time high, she’s an ideal vector for spreading manufactured anti-Russia bullshit—Nayirah, Bana Al-Abed & Yeonmi Park all rolled into one.

Can’t make this up—Lesia’s father, Volodymyr Vasylenko, wasn’t just the Ukrainian Ambassador to NATO & the EU, he was a Rep on the UN Human Rights Council & sat on the “international tribunal” that saw Milosevic die in The Hague & openly said it wouldn’t prosecute NATO nationals.

In 2017, Volodymyr Vasylenko—father of Ukrainian MP & serial fabulist @lesiavasylenko—insisted that successful war crimes prosecutions of Russian soldiers (like he did to the Serbs) would be dependent “on whether the Ukrainian side will manage to furnish the convincing evidence.”

To give you a sense for the family legal philosophy, in the same interview the elder Vasylenko claims “there was no bias against defendants on the basis of their ethnicity” in a tribunal that convicted 0 NATO nationals and 70% Serbs

Guess the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree
