So let me get this straight, she adopted a child from Mariupol, after they killed his parents? Such generosity...
Save child - It's not generosity, it's her job
@@AZ-zo6yr nice try, бот
They just commit genocide of Ukrainians. And Vice News makes it looking glamorous
So what would you suggest it was supposed to be done once the parents were killed?What would you consider a good action in that situation?
@@silviualbisoru5749maybe to get them into third party countries? And do not use them as exchange fund
>Smiling when getting accused of horrible things.
>Blaming the other country of doing the thing they did.
Ive seen enough.
welcome to russian propaganda world
The accusations are laughable 😂
In the Russian world, there are two ways to justify your own wrongdoing: Use whataboutism and justify yourself by pointing fingers at other countries, or just blame the other countries.
@@JohnCSmith-lp1qr You are a Russian bot.
@@JohnCSmith-lp1qr question: Did Russia attack Ukraine? The answer is yes. Question: Did Russia deport Ukrainian children from Ukrainian territories they have occupied or used to occupy? Yes. Did this ''lady'' admit that she ''adopted'' a child from Mariupol whose parents died [because of Russian shelling]? Yes.
Now laugh.
Mariupol was surrounded and controlled by Russians from day one of the invasion. Civilians trying to get through were shot. Tens of thousands of civilians were killed 90% of city buildings were ruined. It's ridiculous she's blaming Ukrainians for not being able to evacuate their own children. See you in Hague Lvova Belova.
It's so creepy when she says that her heart told her that it's 'her child'. I think that she looks at all of these children and thinks that they 'belong to her' and to Russia and not to their Ukrainian parents that are now either killed by them or homeless in a refugee center somewhere. This is unbelievable evil... This is just horrible
I'm not a supporter of death penalty, but for such evil creatures I really wish fucking suffering. Imagine killing their parents and after that convincing them that it was for good, because they were bad nazi, blabla. I hate this woman passionately.
Lmao you think every adopted child is brainwashed?
Their parents are also belong to Russia. They are just not there yet.
@@meineculting915 I don't have that information, but I can only imagine what's going on there, judging by putins russia and what a horrible propagandised country it is.
@@cobrastancult3241 I don't believe in slavery, I believe that every parent or every person belongs where they want to belong, and these people are Ukrainians. Russia has made a lot of effort to also include these lands in their empire, but that is unethical, and this is beyond any debate. it's as if you said that terrorists acts of Al Qaida are justified and good. They are not, and if you support them, then I don't want to talk to you.
im amazed she can say "we don't use children for political purposes" while keeping a straight face. They literally just talked about how she "adopted" a 16 year old and how children were "thanking soldiers". This woman is pure evil. Saying a massive conflict like this was motived by "compassion and love" is so backwards.
She’s banging that kid right? “My heart fluttered. I knew he was my son.” Fucking creepy answer
How is it that saving children abandoned by their parents political? You should ask yourself why these kids were left all alone in the first place in a war zone controlled mostly by Russians.
You are a victim of silly western propaganda.
I'm surprised the journalist didn't push back and mention how what she accused Ukrainians of doing is what she is openly doing. But great questions all around...this was bone chilling.
@@fredbyoutubingBecause if she did, they would probably just end the interview. The goal with these people is to just get them talking so their words can be used against them when they're inevitably in the courtroom.
She is a monster with a sweet smile. They themselves destroyed the cities and kill the parents of these children, and then she says that she saves them?
Not so sweet...
And maybe if the room weren't pure white, we wouldn't have noticed--as fitting as it was--the food stuck in that smile.
Ukraine has been shelling these towns since 2014.

Боже, сколько лжи, сколько холодного лицемирия😥 Сложно было досмотреть это интервью, меня охватывает ужас от мысли, что судьба моих детей могла быть в руках этой женщины. Мы с мужем дважды успели эвакуировать своих детей из под надвигающейся российской "заботы", в 2014 из Донецка, в 2022 из Запорожья. Но не успела маму из Мариуполя, теперь она там фактичкски в заложниках. Мы уже 9 лет скитаемся в своей собственной стране, как только мы где-нибудь наладим жизнь, туда приходит россия, и всё разрушает. Это дикость и варварство. Мои дети сейчас, как и многие другие лишены детства, возможности жить дома, общаться с друзями, ходить в школу, видеть родных с оккупированных регионов, мы прячемся от смерти, и прячемся от жизни 😔
Я так надеюсь на вашу победу , на падение лукашевского режима , но я ненавижу наше скотское население . Как они могут это все поддерживать
@@olil4307 Спасибо за пожелание 💙💛 Старайтесь держаться адекватных людей, что-бы всё это пережить. Я тоже была разочарована дончанами, а сейчас меня шокируют люди в Мариуполе, но правда в том, что в любом из случаев, и в моем (на оккупированных территориях), и в вашем (по сути тоже оккупированном государстве) мы слышим только голоса неадекватов, понимающие люди вынуждены молчать чтобы выжить.
@@olga6770 Разумеется ! Никто не хочет ощутить,пардон швабру. Я ещё до войны в Украине узнала о том как калечат людей в Жодино и Окрестино ! Никогда не интересовалась политикой и такой шок !

Sorry for writing in English, my Russian is too poor and my Ukrainian is nonexistent, I just wanted to give my sympathies. I am a teacher in Norway and one of my colleagues is a Ukrainian schoolteacher we were able to collect money for and save from Donetsk last year. He had refused to leave the school and the children back in 2014, but when the war started he refused to be drafted into the DNR militia by the Russians to shoot at his fellow Ukrainians, so they drafted his mother instead as a nurse, beat him up, stole his money and his clothes and left him naked in the snow. Luckily he survived, and we teachers from abroad who knew him were able to collect money for a smuggler who took him into Russia and then over to us. Poor man, he still teaches Ukrainian refugee children here, but he is worried sick about what is happening with his mother and the schoolchildren of Donetsk. I wonder if this lady grabbed any of them.
How about this stop fighting each other and bring peace amongst each other
I'm just shocked by this woman. I'm from Ukraine. My friend lived in Mariupol. When the Russians occupied the city, people who tried to escape from the city themselves were simply shot. Ukraine tried to make humanitarian corridors, only Russia constantly opened fire on those who tried to carry it out and on those who wanted to escape.
Completely twisting the facts now aren't you, azov held the civillians hostage there is video evidence not that you would see any of it since you dirty ukrop stooge
why u so brainwashed?
@@EgoAquila you mean you are brainwashed?
Stop lying: Ukraine is busy forcing men to go to the front. Ukraine is not the saint in this conflict. Mariupol is a Russian speaking city and Ukraine doesn’t do humanitarian corridors, that idea is a Russian one, it used used in Syria too
@@picassomicasso1there are German speakink cities in Swiss, does it give Germany right to attack Swithzerland?
“I am not a war criminal, I am a mother!”
Woman, how many mothers have been gassing children in concentration camps before going back to their own children, just to give one example?
Motherhood does not make you pure and innocent, it just means you are responsible for another human being- and even then you can still do a shitty job, or steal someone else’s child and call it your own!
Indeed. thank you. what a terrible woman. her creepy cold smile says it all 😒
Truth
Well said Gigi, very well said! ❤
Artek and Orlenok are real Gulag camps. So brain washed. 🤮
Concentration camps were created by German NAZIS, the very same human-like creatures who nowadays support neoNAZIs in modern Ukraine.
This lady has the GALL to say Ukraine didn't save these children. She forgets to add that they wouldn't need saving if russia didn't attack at all
That was almost ridicolous. She´s "saving" them from Russian bombs. Well, congrats. That´s not even propaganda, that´s utter bs.
She also lied about corridors. There were so many, but they were constantly shooting at them. It's their old tactics.
This woman is not a journalist, she is a provocateur and propagandist who does not even want to listen to her opponent.
@@microcosmysofficial9240exactly. Families died in the cars.
yes they did, their language, culture, and the country in civil war, they did need saving idiot 😂😂
She says children are not used for political purposes but they also have children thanking "Uncle Yuri" in front of thousands of Russians on state tv
think about some ukrainian mother or family watching this interview and seeing the person who abducted their child on T.V, not in handcuffs, not in a jail cell. someone stole your little sister or little brother, and you’re watching the person you know did it on TV denying everything. you’d want to destroy this woman.
you even dont know what you talking about. every child can leave russia and rejoin with his western ukranian relative. so i understand that you are just a zombi whos been hypnotised by corporate TV. gess i guess you was vaccinated at first line
This woman was nothing but a pure evil and wicked person I just hope time and bad karma will get her a high price for Hell.
Would it be better to see dead children?
I have a little sister and brother. And can speak a little Russian so I find the things she is saying very upsetting. My little sister understands more Russian than I do and is scared and upset by the whole thing and we are in the U.S. I could not even imagine what it must be like for families in Ukraine.
And what would you say about the Palestinian children?
"I'm not Pro-Russian. I'm Russian in its purest form." (how to say you're a fascist without saying you're a fascist)
Like Ukraine which has a national holiday that celebrates a fascist collaborator and mass murderer from WW2?
You are completely misinformed.
Russian are fascist, whauuu, didnt know that, thanks for leasson
Just creepy...
Hi, I’m from Russia and not supportive of the invasion but I have to correct the subtitles. She didn’t say in its purest form, she said ( в чистом виде) which can be translated as “just” in this particular context. So she really said : I’m not pro Russian, I’m just Russian. She is still a bish tho. But the subtitles are still clearly being manipulated wherever there is a slightest possibility for re interpretation of her words.
@@niki-plays-roblox9862 tf r u telling? she literally said “в чистом виде“ which can be translated both in literal or free or in any other kind of translation as “pure”. this expression is a sustainable matching. and she used it on purpose of emphasizing. don’t try to promote your own understanding of her words. the context was that she was trying to aggressively defend the government wills, she didn’t try to make an excuse with “просто“
As a russian, understanding her words in native language gives me chills. I look at her and I can’t understand if she really believes that she is doing right thing or is lying so heartlessly. True monster
another native russian-speaker here. to me it feels like she knows she is lying but that she truly believes that everybody lies and that that's how you're supposed to do things
@@KostyaT This was exactly how I perceived it, as well. She was an impressionable 14yo when Putin came into power and began messaging “West is bad, US is Satan, democracy is dead, they all lie, cheat, steal, and kill” every day, over and over. Russian propaganda has proven effective, and she is one of many Russians who now believe these things.
Russian here. Residing in Russia. Even a regular talk to regular ppl often chilling nowadays. Even my parents. The whole nation is lost. What propaganda did to ppl (among many other things) is giving them way to say out loud any bold, streight up lies and dont feel uncomfortable. And this interview is the perfect example.
As a Ukrainian I don’t think she is lying, I think she genuinely believes in the genocidal myths that cause this war. We all assumed putin to some extent knew he was lying about Ukraine, but now I’m not sure.
Don’t underestimate the indoctrination of most of you country men. For generations you have been thought that you are Kyiven Rus and that Ukraine was invented by Poland. Now we see the true manifestation of this indoctrination.
Dictators convince their people that they can only succeed by being manipulators themselves, that's what I see in her and many other people living under tyranny.
Какой ужас! У меня мурашки по коже от этого интервью. Я как будто интервью с маньяком посмотрела. Только его не поймали, а отпустили дальше делать свои дела. Раньше я думала: «Как эта миловидная женщина не понимает что творит?». А сейчас я думаю, что она прекрасно понимает, что делает. И на это смотреть жутко. Улыбается, в те моменты, когда это неуместно. Как социопат какой-то. Прикрывается своими детьми и чужими. Жуть! И уже совсем не кажется миловидной. Волк в овечьей шкуре. Я очень надеюсь, что она окажется в Гааге и понесёт наказание за все зло, которое сделала.
Те же мысли и ощущения
Fingers crossed.
Most likely she'll get shot when Putin does.
Да, в приговоре так и напишут "Улыбается, в те моменты, когда это неуместно. Как социопат какой-то. Виновна!".
Да, на голову там точно нездоровы, согласен.
So much Russian bot scum in comments
Lebensborn is what the nazis did in Poland, Norway, and elsewhere, this is no different.
a cold, cruel woman, she does not think that kidnapping children and forcibly turning them into Russians is a war crime. It's creepy to look at the eyes of such a person
She doesn't think there is a People called Ukrainian. There are only Russians versus those opposing Russia. She is worse than Putin because she's not only evil but also ignorant - lack of ability to think for herself, just like many other Russian nationalists.
What you seen of evil in that Russian women is what as an American who went to live in Moldova found of the Russian population.
All Russians are evil murders - thief's - liars - rapist - child rapist and anything else immoral and Illegal that sums it up as a Russian !
To the hightest level Sinister
You can see the evil in her eyes
She's lying. She knows it is.
Я русский, но не могу поверить в то, что она говорит! В моей голове не укладывается, как ты можешь говорить, что ты спасаешь детей , если твоя армия их убивает! Как ты можешь говорить о том, что Украина не эвакуировала детей, когда твоя армия полностью окружила город. Я мама и этим все сказано, ты не мама ты маньячка.
@@olapolis8905 Russian army trapped people who tried to use humanitarian corridor from Mariupol.
У вас логические несостыковки. В одной и той же стране есть люди, которые спасают детей, и те, кто их убивает. И первые не должны отвечать за вторых, и тем блее гражданское лицо не может отвечать за военных. Из окруженных городов куча людей выехала через гуманитарные коридоры, тому есть множество подтверждений, это невозможно отрицать.

@@dmitryaslamov9719 absolutely everyone has been trapped? So what did they do to these people?
“There were no humanitarian corridors [in Mariupol]” Who’s fault is that? How is Ukraine supposed to create humanitarian corridors when Russia had the city entirely surrounded since the first month of the invasion? This is literally schoolyard bully “why are you hitting yourself” logic. It’s like if the US hadn’t gave any warning about dropping nukes on Nagasaki and Hiroshima, then blamed Japan for not evacuating quick enough. The blood is on your hands, Russia, the least you can do is take responsibility.
I can't fathom how you managed to not punch her face. Must've taken every last drop of your professionalism.
The question I was wondering most about was, why was she into "Philip"? He's hardly a kid anymore. When I saw him, I thought it was weird that they referred to him as a "child". He's basically an adult now and she herself doesn't look much older than him. Why does she need to be his mother? Normally when people adopt, they want to adopt babies, not "children" that are officially adults in 2 years time. Even children that are 8 years old are too old for most adoptive parents
@@marioluigi9599 We can speculate to infinity. A plausible explanation could be that this child was groomed and selected for best aligning with russian propaganda and he was a "safe" choice. Another is that they don't really care, he's a random vanity kid, and they know he can't do anything about his circumstances. Or she really just liked that kid for whatever reason. At the end of the day, we still know that this is mind bogglingly wrong, no matter what their reasoning was.

Defamation is a criminal sin!
Thanks Vice for putting straight facts into her face. It is easy to see how uncomfortable she is comparing to state propaganda TV.
It is funny how she says "There were no humanitarian corridors [in Mariupol]". I wonder how Ukraine can provide corridor to the city sieged by russian army. Isn't it then their responsibility to offer such corridor to safely evacuate children to safe place in their motherland? Of course, it is easier deport them to russia and use children for personal leverage.
I am also amazed how she dares to say "We were saving children" and at the same time on April 28 russia launched missile strike on building block in Uman killing 6 children according to the latest data.

However, the issue I take with your comment is that this ended decades ago while Russia is CURRENTLY committing these kinds of crimes. So, your “whataboutism” is in incredibly poor taste seeing as this issue we’re currently discussing on this post/video has literally NOTHING to do with the US or Canada. Ya’ll need to stay on topic better ✌️

Hope she realize every single word of this interview would be used in court against her
Pure evil. Hope the innocent children and all people are rescued and returned to where they belong.
When she said "I don't understand" and did that little smile she understood the question very well.
To be honest, i am russian speaking, fluent english but also did not understand. Maybe it is the way she phrased it or i was reading the subtitles…not sure
Cause that was typical jour-no “trip up” question. Not being specific: “I guess a lot of issue come from definition who is stinky and who isn’t?🤪 And who is thinking he’s stinky and who isn’t?🙃”. ??? …
Of course she understud! She didn't want to answer this question. She had 100% a translater for the questions or a script before the interview started.
@@dirkbanzhaf234 Belova said smth about these territories not being Ukraine, while the interviewer continued saying “what is and what is not Russia”…she should have said “Ukraine”….thats why a bit confusing. She did not have script as this was a follow up question.

@@fraudsterman1393 question is quite clear! In russian construction every person who speaks russian is considered russian. Russia claims that occupied territories are russia now, but it is not. International law doesn't recognize those territories as russia! So that is the wording!
This was such a good interview, so chilling, you could feel the tension between the two women. Incredibly well done to the interviewer, she was asking some very hard questions. You could see the Russian woman's thoughts spinning on how she can turn the answers around in her favour. What a shrewd, manipulative and dangerous person. 100% a war criminal.
one can not say better!... Thanks!
Whoa! Very apt description of the lady.
She evacuated children from a war zone, where is a war crime here?
Would you rather the kids stay in an active warzone and possibly lose their life?
@@SimoN-vf8ps I would rather Russia not bomb places where kids live.
So I definitely mainly disagree with miss Blonde here, but good points I agree with her were: 1.u shouldnt be leaving as sign of protest, as she stated, u should hear all sides of the story. 2. there were several tries to do human corridors and even then ton of people stayed there who wanted to leave and Ukraine army used these civilians as shields, so obviously they didnt wanted them to leave. 3. erasing citizenship/nationality - this was mainly done by Ukraine even before 2014 when Ukraine prohibited using russian language, flag, etc. which then Russia used as a "good" point to invade and annex Crymea too in 2014. I am pretty sure both sides done many wrong acts, which shouldnt have been done, looking at it just from 1 side tho, shows lack of critical thinking and following everything what 1 side says without checking enough possible sources. Vice here was only representing Ukraine side.
Feel kind a proud that Russians in both English and Russian say that she’s insane…cuz she is!
Recently helped translate an article about Fillip(the adopted boy)…poor boy is not doing great!
Ukraine, we are with you!
Please link the article! I would love to read it!
I think this piece would benefit from more fact checking. Even if to a Western audience it should be clear that the interviewed is a psychopath, war criminal, and lier, and the journalist clearly knows this, some of her lies can get thorough when they are published without an additional in-depth explanation. It is dangerously easy to take her plea for listening to ‘both sides’ too seriously, because to someone who does not understand the topic it may sound reasonable. But in this case one side is committing genocide and the other is trying to defend itself. That’s not time to listen to both sides. Anyway I hope to see her in the Hague when Ukraine wins the war. Slava Ukraini!
I thought the same. Vice is just helping propagate Russian propaganda here.
Oh please...the rage reeks out of her as she speaks and let's go of her fake smile.
Just pay attention to this interview and you dont even need fact checking. She contradicts herself even with her scripted answers
Can these children communicate with their Ukrainian families? Can the Ukrainian families come get these children? That is what I don't understand. Why aren't the Russians sharing pictures and identifying information of the children that were evacuated? Where are the Ukrainian families that are missing children? Have they reported it this to the Government? How does it work?
@@niceforkinmove5511 Great question! Another argument not presented by Vice. They've marginally done anything more than allow belova's genocidal propaganda breathing space in western media.
The only thing that threatened the kids' lives and safety was the russian shells raining down on their towns.
Yes! And reigning down on their residential homes!
Already ruZZia was commiting war crimes. The reason she gave for the illegal deportations was a ruZZian war crime.
And where were these children's parents when they were "abducted"?? Abandoning their children and then yapping later on ???

Lock her up
Как Львовой-Беловой приходится напрягаться и защищаться и проявлять агрессию на прямые вопросы журналистки о том, что она "спасает" детей из разрушенных российской армией городов, в том числе Мариуполя.. Интересно, она понимает и боится последствий, связанных с судом в Гааге? Или по малоумию вообще не понимает? Мне кажется, боится и все понимает.
I don't think she was aggressive towards Isobel - even tho Isobel rightly put to her some strong accusatory questions.
The way she speaks about the "brotherly people" and the "common culture" between Russia and Ukraine gave me chills.
She's a true fascist. List to how she says she's the purest form of Russian that a Russian can be. What the....???

@@ericeandco weird how not many people in Ukraine wanted to be ''independent'' from Ukraine (it's also weird how independent means being with Russia) until Russia didn't roll up their tanks on its territory.
Her facial expressions says different..she’s a monster. They way she looked aside when asked a question caused me to become infuriated. And what does being a mother herself have to do with her taking kids from any chance of reuniting them with family or trusted friends? She’s the bait, that what. 🤬
She's another carefully chosen piece of propaganda, and her image is part of that. She looks like a soft, gentle, pretty, compassionate mother - until she opens her mouth.

As a Russian speaker I can not miss the fact that in 10:38 she clearly says "our goal is to separate our fraternal bounds with Ukraine" but vice translated it as "keep the bounds".🤨 anyway I have been waiting for one simple question: "if Russia hasn't started the war would there be any reason to rescue the children?"
Pure evil.
People like this deserve the worst type of punishment. To call yourself a mother and still continue to take kids from other mothers legit makes no sense. No empathy barely human
Because you are gullible sheep believing what MSM news tells you about Russia. You guys do not have any idea that MSM has been telling lies all along. Russia running out of missiles, sabotaging their own pipeline etc. Plain lines from the sources you believing

she is a clear psychopath, probably being a part of a sect named Russian church where her husband is a so called priest

She says she's a mother, but does she have any biological children, or did she just mean the ones she's kidnapped? 🤔 (And does she diddle all of them like she definitely diddles Philip? 🤔)
So scary to hear her say "we share common heritage with Ukraine". "And we are like brothers". If this is what Russians do to their brothers imagine what they do to their enemies?
All these talks about “brotherhood” and so on means absolutely nothing. They are ashamed to admit they are loosing to us Ukrainians, as they always thought of us as weak second-grade nation.
As a true bully, a russian is only capable of understanding the position of power. They know the west is stronger and smarter, they will not attack but they will threaten. As they do now.

They say "no humanitarian corridors" existed out of Mariupol. There was many, and mainly children and women were bussed out of the city, but the evacuation, even during the time the city was surrounded and under siege, had to be stopped several times due to russian shelling being too close and sometimes even in the path of the evacuation route. as someone who was born and raised in Mariupol, I find her words disgusting.

6:24 she said there were no corridors evacuating children. During the first weeks of the war, Russians allowed corridors for civilians, but every time they were used by families, Russia bombed them. Several agreements were made, russians would agree "yes we will ceasefire so that civilians can leave"... and then fired on those corridors in the middle of the time agreed, when it was full of fleeing civilians. This happened several times, whatever Russia did it on purpose, or lack of order in units, doesn't matter: People became too scared to try to leave anymore, and then got bombed in their homes.
Amnesty International has been reporting on it too.
Это ложь!
@@TheBorodulkina you're a liar. Cope bot.
Exactly! I will never forget that Ukrainian man who found out his wife, daughter, son and family friend were killed during one of those agreed upon evacuation routes out of Irpin that was shelled. He saw photos of their bodies online and understood why he couldn't get a hold of any of them. 😩
Ukrainians did it to keep their human shield in place. They don't consider Mariupol People pro-ukrainian and don't care about them
Nothing worse in this world than when russians decide they need to save and liberate someone.
I am having flashbacks of the stolen native americans children during colonization and the blond, blue-eyed ones from Poland during Nazism
That smile on her face throughout the interview is haunting and pure evil.
I’m Russian, was born in the most liberal and western-orientated city (St. Petersburg) and I DO NOT and WILL NEVER accept that the abduction of children from the city, which is occupied and was heavily bombed by Russia for example, long-suffered Mariupol (a form of genocide) as a norm. Russia and Maria Lvova-Belova in particular have kidnapped children and forcibly sent them to Russia. Also note her straight face, when she was excusing herself, she was saying about her crimes without any remorse. That is just sickening! She SHOULD be sent to Hague and sentenced there for life!
Slava Ukraini! Heroyam Slava! Putin- HUILO!

It's always interesting when a narcissist tries to turn back the claims that are made against them on to the other person. Notice how when the Ukrainian children were thanking the Russian soldiers for help on national TV it is not using children for propaganda. But when Ukrainian children express their negative experiences in Russia it's Ukraine using children as "political tools." And all the claims are absurd 9:00
Ukraine is using kids as political tools.

3:17 the reporter says that "we know that Russia does not want Ukraine to exist" but Russia hasn't said that anywhere, not in any official statements, and has frequently said the opposite in the last few years. They have criticised nationalists and extremists out of control and deadly in Ukrainem and criticised treatment of ethnic Russians etc. They have said that Ukraine is being used and abused by some in the west and this has been the fault of recent governments I think. Nowhere that Ukraine should cease to exist.
Isobel Yeung is great at interviewing the absolute worst people, and never holds back with her questions. Like she said at the beginning, it's amazing they even went ahead with this interview.
The person translating probably had to rephrase some of the questions in Russian so she wasn't thrown out of a window on the way out. You could almost see the fear in her face when she pressed her further on some of those questions.
bullshit. She didn't ask her hard questions. What russians where doing in Ukraine in the first place? Ridiculous.
Если имеется ввиду удивление, по поводу согласия российской стороны, то- они просто хотят оправдаться.
Они не оставили и не оставляют своей гнусной цели, переубедить иностранную, европейскую аудиторию в том, что они не пресупники.
Without a doubt, one of the greatest journalists of our generation.
She shouldn't be interviewing her. Why give a war criminal a chance to make excuses and let their voice be heard?
Isobel should be given proper recognition for this undertaking. Getting to Moscow and fixing this interview must have been tough enough, asking questions about genocide straight into her face - is on a completely different level. Admire this kind of journalism!

For those unaware of the details of the Russian strongholds prior to the 2022 invasion, about a week after Russia “annexed” Crimea, the same Russian militants responsible for Crimea began showing up in Donetsk. About a month later, they stormed and took control of the police stations and government buildings. Over the next year, they brought in Russian reinforcements, and turned parts of the region into a conflict zone, forcing around half (~3 million) of the Ukrainian residents to relocate to other Ukrainian regions.
The idea that LPR/DPR are independent regions, and that the Russian stronghold in Donetsk stretched unimpeded to Mariupol and beyond, is pure BS. Throughout history, Russian leaders have tried to stifle Ukrainian language and culture through policy many times, this being no different. Even before the war, Russia had a major population and demographic problem, and it’s highly likely that their children plan was in place before the war for this, and other manipulations. It would have been so easy to invite UN teams, NGO’s, or an unbiased 3rd-party country to come in and serve this function….even now (Bakhmut’s mention means that children are still being deported). Don’t be fooled by the well-coordinated and prepared lady in white, in an all-white Russian studio, as she spews disinformation.

“Ukrainians are not trying to evacuate children from bakhmut or Mariupol” 😂😂
Is this a comedy piece?
Just part of Russian-nazi propaganda
Exactly, Bakhmut had a population of 70,000, now just a few hundred are left behind Russian lines. The Ukrainians did every thing they could to get people to safety except for forcing them against their will. Everyday, right until the last moment before the Russians arrived, rescuers tried to persuade the last few people to safety at huge risk to themselves from Russian shelling.

About virtually everything she was talking about.
Do you think Putin has partnered with Wagner and conscripted from Rusich and the Russian Imperial Movement, because he loves Ukrainian culture?
He enlists a company of mercenaries filled with far-right paramilitary and literal Nazi terrorists because he intended to commit genocide against Ukraine.
Cities like Kyiv and others have been subject to artillery bombardment and cruise missiles for months, hitting many civilian targets and even deliberately targeting civilian infrastructure.
Putin is a ghoul and a war criminal. Mariupol and other cities have been decimated. In the initial days civilian corridors were targeted so people were forced to remain, only to be targeted with constant artillery bombardment.
Putin and this woman are an abomination. They are utterly morally-bankrupt and evil. The Russian empire is an affront to humanity.
@@AZ-zo6yr One obvious example: The Ukrainians allowed no humanitarian corridors. I followed the siege of Mariupol everyday and the Ukrainians were doing everything they could to get the Russians to allow civilians to escape. They even got Macron to petition Putin personally to allow people to escape the carnage. Mariupol had a population of 450,000 and your army blocked in the inhabitants and destroyed it killing and maiming thousands of innocent civilians. If they had the chance they would've mostly fled to Ukrainian controlled territory.
@@motimobo hm... interesting. I also closely followed the reports from Mariupol (EU and US reporters on the groud), interviews of refugees. And it is obvious that Russia provided corridors, but Azov blocked the exit of civilians.
@Russia, Why are your warheads pointed at Children? No matter their religion, color or ethnicity those children did not ask for your bloodshed.
Well done on giving war criminal a platform to speak their mind. Imagine interviewing a child molester and not a single time correcting them, that abusing children is not the same as guiding them into adult world. Obviously, a right to journalism should be a fundamental right in democratic countries, but you just don't, you simply don't put criminals on stand and listen to everything they have to say. For that purposes we have trials, not interviews. At least a prosecutor would be able to point out limitless crimes, this woman has done. Shame to you vice news.
