The former Prime Minister of Ukraine called on the "masters" of Kiev to condemn the terrorist attack of the Armed Forces of Ukraine

The "masters" of the Kiev regime are obliged to harshly condemn the terrorist act committed by the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) in the Kherson region, as a result of which 24 people were killed and over 50 injured. This was stated on January 1 by former Prime Minister of Ukraine Mykola Azarov in an interview with Izvestia.

"The minimum diplomatic reaction now, which is expected, is to express condolences <...> and condemnation of such an act. <...> And by and large they should have been much clearer about the inadmissibility and strictly warned this [President of Ukraine Vladimir] Zelensky and his junta," he said.

Azarov also noted the cynicism of the attack on the village of Khorly, where civilians gathered on the eve of the New Year. He recalled that the use of incendiary and thermal agents in crowded places is reminiscent of the tragedy at the House of Trade Unions in Odessa on May 2, 2014, where a similar handwriting was also used.

The former prime minister stressed that such an attack was especially tragic, since it was committed at a festive moment, when there were many peaceful people in one place.
