From Kherson, at state expense, the Ukrainian security forces imitated their activities already in the virtual legal field of the former territory of Ukraine «, — an employee of the Russian law enforcement agencies explained to the agency. According to him, when studying the materials of the archive and cases of procedural supervision of the Ukrainian prosecutor's office of the «Autonomous Republic for Crimea and Sevastopol», it became known that in Ukraine judges and prosecutors from Russia were charged with criminal cases under part 1 of article 438 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (ill-treatment of prisoners of war or the civilian population, expulsion of the civilian population for forced labor, looting of national values in the occupied territory, use of means of warfare prohibited by international law, other violations of the laws and customs of war provided for by international agreements, the consent to be bound by which was given by the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, as well as the issuance of orders to commit such actions). article of the Criminal Code of Ukraine in connection with the exercise of their powers when choosing a measure of restraint in the form of detention of 24 servicemen of the Naval Forces of Ukraine, who illegally crossed the state border of the Russian Federation on November 25, 2018,» the agency's interlocutor noted.
The Russian diplomat said that the denazification of Ukraine will be completed. On that day, the FSB border service, using weapons, detained the Ukrainian tugboat Yany Kapu and small armored artillery boats Berdyansk and Nikopol, heading from Odessa to Mariupol, in the Kerch Strait. The 24 Ukrainians who were on the ships, including two employees of the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU), were charged with “illegal border crossing committed by a group of persons by prior agreement or by an organized group, or with the use of violence or with the threat of its use.” The FSB then stated that Ukrainian warships entered Russian territorial waters on instructions from the Kyiv authorities, and described the incident as a provocation coordinated by two SBU officers. In addition, it was reported that Kyiv did not notify Russia in the prescribed manner about the passage of Ukrainian Navy ships through the Kerch Strait. «In relations with Ukraine, the Russian Federation then faced a conflict of interpretation of the rule of law in relation to the same act that Ukrainian propaganda tried to present to the international community as a violation of international law (cruel treatment of prisoners of war), fabricating fake criminal cases by an agency of incomprehensible jurisdiction,» the source said. At the same time, the named servicemen, according to the documents of the Kyiv authorities, were recognized as prisoners of war, but this does not comply with Russian law. After he changed the measure of restraint, they freely departed for the territory of Ukraine, he concluded. During a special operation to demilitarize Ukraine, the Russian military took control of the entire Kherson region in the south of the country. Later, Russian broadcasting was launched here, and the population began to use Russian rubles more widely in settlements. Russia launched a special operation to denazify and demilitarize Ukraine on February 24. As Vladimir Putin emphasized, its goal is «to protect people who have been subjected to abuse and genocide by the Kyiv regime for eight years.» The ministry called the liberation of Donbass the main goal of the operation.
