THREAD Russia sends hundreds of its school and kindergarten teachers to occupied Ukraine in order to fulfill genocide of Ukrainians. Exactly as the RU soldiers, these people come to UKR with their hate against Ukrainians. RU Novaya newspaper talked to them. Read their testimonies

Yuri Baranov, history teacher from Russia-colonized Perm region in Urals: „my wife and me hope we will get a piece of land in Zaporizhya. My wife always dreamt about a house with a garden… I personally despise Ukraine. Theis country groomed hate against Russian for 30 years“ 2/x

Tatyana Taratynova, director of a kindergarten in Rostov region. „We run workshops for Ukrainians on how to switch to Russian teaching plans… the crucial thing is to stop them from be stubborn in Ukrainian teaching plans and to switch the system into Russian standard“ 3/x

Konstantin Matyukhov, Chief of studying process in a school in Omsk, Siberia: „I want to be in the front edge to serve my Motherland. If needed I will take a gun and fight. I am a retired colonel, a former sniper. I can teach history, but can be a gunner if needed“. 4/x

The same Matyukhov continues: there may not be any division of Russians and Ukrainians, as there are only Russians, one nation. It was so amid the Czars: there were Greater Russians, Smaller Russians, all Russians. There is no Ukrainian language, only a dialect of the Russian“5/x

Andrey Chetvertkov from Elista, Russia-colonized Kalmykia: „I volunteered as a patriot. I will teach according to the Russian school program. They want to join Russia - they must follow.Since eternity Smaller Russia was a part of Russian empire. Donbas will always be Russian“ 6/x

Here is a video of a Russian Nazi teacher drilling the kids in Ukrainian Mariupol: “On your situation and in the world politics: you’ll learn in Russian starting from now. It is not bad to be killed by bullets. Important is to preserve Russian language”7/x

In Western tradition, a teacher stays for humanism and progress. The RU teachers are the opposite: they are Nazi agents. And what happened to UKR teachers? There are many reports on how RU kidnapped UKR teachers, tortured them, even killed, like this case in Chernihiv region 8/x

And what happened to Ukrainian books and school libraries? They were purged by Russians. The RU teachers who came as occupational army agents, removed all UKR language books from the libraries, including schoolbooks, fiction books etc. Here two protocols from Kharkiv region. 9/x

This all is actually a continuation of the same politics Moscow pursued in Ukraine for over a century. Amid both the Czars and the Communists, Moscow deported or killed Ukrainian teachers to replace them with Russians. Here is Nadia Sihida, a UKR teacher deported to Arctics…10/x

…in 1860s. She was sent to a Czarist proto-Gulag in Ust-Kara, on the Arctic Ocean, and committed suicide at her age of 37, after humiliating torture by Russians. Many other Ukrainian prisoners followed her. Her husband and a poet Pavlo Hrabovsky died in another camp as well 11/x

And amid Stalin, Moscow continued to send Russian settlers to Ukraine, to replace the deported Ukrainian and Crimeatatar population. Here is the call for Russian peasants come to “fruitful lands” on Crimea and get subsidized. Remember the teacher with his garden dream? 12/x

I think I will stop here for now. It is clear that Russian teachers who volunteered to come to Ukraine are the cold-blood Nazis who willingly participate on Russian genocide on Ukrainians. They are a part of the Russian war machine and must be prosecuted as war criminals. /END
