BREAKING: Absolutely *damning* ECHR ruling finds Kiev bears heavy responsibility for the massacre of scores anti-Maidan activists in Odessa, May 2014. Inevitable Western media blackout on this, as it confirms what Russia was saying all along.🧵...

This being the ECHR (with a Ukrainian judge presiding, no less), the ruling is at pains to 'bothsides' the burning to death of dozens of anti-Maidan activists by Neo-Nazi lunatics. Nonetheless, it acknowledges local police and fire services "deliberately" allowed it to happen.
Nobody and nothing stepped in to rescue the anti-Maidan activists as they burned to death, and the ECHR finds this failure "went beyond an error of judgment or carelessness". Maidan authorities actively wanted these people to die, for the crime of being Russian.
ECHR particularly damning of numerous official Ukrainian investigations and trials of officials and Neo-Nazis responsible for the Odessa massacre. "Extensive photographic and video evidence" was not acted upon, probes and court proceedings deliberately fudged.
Photo/video evidence on Odessa massacre damning and incontrovertible. See video below of Maidan activists making Molotov cocktails to set building ablaze. Won't share clip of Russian teenage girl being forced into the building by Neo-Nazi thugs, pleading them to leave her alone.
In a sick irony, ECHR claims Russian "disinformation" about Maidan government played a role. That disinformation being it was a violent, dangerous, Neo-Nazi entity - a charge amply validated by Neo-Nazi thugs burning Russians to death, then joking about it for years afterwards?
Ukrainian ultra-nationalists would frequently boast of "the annual May barbecue", while the Ukrainian government and its Western sponsors simultaneously blamed what happened on Moscow, and/or the victims themselves, all along. Can you imagine how this went down with Russians?
Below, an image of one of the Odessa massacre victims, desperately attempting to break out of the building Neo-Nazi Maidan activists barricaded and set alight, as they burned to death. The scum responsible went on to form Azov Battalion.
Fast forward to today, and Odessa is a key base of proxy war operations for British intelligence, via the local SBU. The city's sizeable "pro-Russian contingent" is a key target, for they'll be welcoming Moscow's forces *when* they arrive.
In a testament to the utter cancer of Wikipedia, its entry on the Odessa massacre has been updated to reference the ECHR ruling - all the bullshit passages speculatively apportioning blame to Russia/Russians for what happened are cited, nothing else.
Rereading ECHR judgment now, the gymnasm engaged in to place *some* blame on Russia for the Odessa massacre on the basis of zero evidence whatsoever is quite amazing (but also completely standard practice in the West by now). "Perhaps". "Might". "Possible". 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Former UKIP leader, "diplomat, soldier & police officer" with an Order of the British Empire "for international security" exhibits astonishing ignorance of how time works
