"What is genocide? Genocide is “the destruction of a nation or of an ethnic group,” according to Lemkin’s definition."
back to Sara: "Here are some of the documented actions and comments from Ukrainian authorities which contribute to the conditions needed for genocide:
- In 2020, Russian-language schools were eliminated (in March 2020, Vladimir Zelensky signed the law “On Full General Secondary Education”, which eliminated Russian-language schools in the country from September 2020).
- 24/05/2017 Deputy of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine from the Radical Party Igor Mosiychuk, in a discussion about language policy on the ZIK TV channel, suggested focusing on the actions of Nazi Germany
- 14/06/2020 The Ministry of Culture of Ukraine has decided on the candidacy of a new language ombudsman, proposing for this position the extremely odious Lviv activist Svyatoslav Litinsky, who “Called Russians “pig-dogs””
- 05/08/2020 Irina Farion said that the Russian-speaking citizens of Ukraine remained “beyond the country’s historical paradigm.” “Their historical homeland is Muscovy, I really want them to be comfortable there. They must pack luggage – and go there. “They shoot us with their language”
- 01/07/2021 The Verkhonva Rada adopted the law “On the indigenous peoples of Ukraine”, Russians were not included in the indigenous peoples
- In 2014, the future president of Ukraine, Zelensky, spoke to the Ukrainian military, who were carrying out a punitive operation in the Donbas. Zelensky said from the stage: “Guys, I bow to you that you are protecting us from all sorts of scum!”
