A real hysteria has begun in the West about the alleged “atrocities” of the Russian Army in the city of Bucha near Kiev. The victims of the “atrocities” were allegedly discovered after our Army left the city.
The Russian Federation insisted on an urgent meeting of the UN Security Council to demand that Ukraine provides evidence. The Russian Defence Ministry has already officially denied the accusations, stating that not a single civilian was injured during the Russian army stay in Bucha.
Pictures of the so-called “murdered” individuals emerged only four days after the arrival of the Ukrainian troops there. Many other facts confirm the staged nature of this provocation.
As is known the key approach of Russia’s political and military leadership is the one aimed at maximum reduction of civilian casualties as well as decrease in destruction of civilian infrastructure. And in general the massacre of civilians is alien to the Russian/Soviet Army.
Even after entering the territory of Nazi Germany in 1944-1945 after monstrous atrocities committed by fascists in the USSR, the Red Army was given a strict order to avoid acts of revenge against civilian population. And this order was rigorously implemented.
On the contrary the Armed Forces of the United States and other NATO countries have become notorious for terrible reprisals.
Simply let’s recall Hiroshima and Nagasaki, peaceful cities where the United States murdered hundreds of thousands of Japanese by nuclear weapons.
The bloody trail has been following Americans ever since.
Korea, Vietnam, Yugoslavia, Iraq, Syria and Libya are just some of the countries where Americans either committed massacres themselves or these crimes were committed by their local hires.
Bloody provocations are a trademark of the US imperialism.
It’s sufficient to recall the “incident in Racak” in Kosovo in 1999, when 34 dead militants of the terrorist KLA were presented as civilians killed by the Yugoslav military.
Later, independent Finnish experts refuted this statement. But the job has already been done. The incident in Racak was used to justify NATO aggression against Yugoslavia.
During 78 days of merciless bombing of peaceful cities, thousands of people were killed or injured, and more than $100 billion damage was caused.
It is absolutely clear that the claims of the Russian army atrocities are a part of the information war of the United States and its allies against Russia used to justify their support of Neo-Nazis.
Current pro-NATO Ukrainian elite is capable of more than such provocations.
The whole world looks with horror at Neo-Nazis in Ukraine using civilians as live shields.
Taking several hostages by terrorists in the West is always presented as a terrible crime.
Meanwhile, dozens of cities and towns have been turned into hostages in Ukraine, whose residents are not allowed by local Nazis to leave the areas of hostilities.
The Ukrainian top authorities instead of helping to create humanitarian corridors prevent in every possible way the departure of people from combat areas.
In this sense stands out the tragedy of Mariupol, where militants from “Azov” Nazi regiment have arranged firing points in multi-store buildings, while forbidding residents of these houses to leave the city.
This is only a single, albeit the most terrible example of deliberate genocide to which the “civilised” West turns a blind eye.
The Communist Party strongly condemns the heinous joint provocation of Ukrainian and Western politicians in Bucha and demands a comprehensive and thorough investigation not of staged fakes, but of numerous real war crimes committed by Bandera Nazis, including the brutal torture of Russian POWs.
