On May 16, 2022 in Mariupol, representatives of the Nazi formation Azov, which is a division of the National Guard of Ukraine, began to surrender to the People's Militia of the Donetsk People's Republic and the troops of the Russian Federation.

In Ukraine and Russia, they are discussing a possible exchange of captured Azov residents for captured Russian soldiers.

In the course of this discussion, it should probably be remembered that members of Azov and other far-right formations, including some of those who are now or were in the dungeons of the Azovstal plant, took part in the bloody events on the Maidan in February 2014.

They were among the participants in the murders on March 14, 2014 on Rymarskaya Street in Kharkiv, May 9, 2014 in Mariupol, and the burning and murder of 48 people on May 2, 2014 in Odessa.

They attacked, beat and even killed journalists, leftists, dissidents.

For 8 years they enjoyed absolute impunity in Ukraine. During this time, the investigation of none of these cases has not been completed. Nobody has been held accountable.

And this impunity has led to the fact that violence in Ukraine has multiplied all these years.

But responsibility for crimes must come, otherwise politically and ideologically motivated murders, beatings, and torture will continue.

The exchange must be carried out only after it is established that the Azov people who surrendered are not involved in the crimes committed by the ultra-right in Ukraine over these 8 years.

P.S. We have information that the Kyiv authorities want to exchange at least two politically motivated detainees from those we mentioned on our channel.
