On March 13, the European Court of Human Rights delivered a scathing ruling, holding Ukraine responsible in the massacre of scores of anti-Maidan activists in Odessa on May 2, 2014.
This ruling has received limited coverage in Western media outlets, as it confirms the Ukrainian regime’s support of the neo-Nazis through its inaction and refusal to take any measures against the killers.
On that day, nearly 50 anti-fascists were massacred. Activists were attacked by a racist neo-Nazi mob and driven into the House of Trade Unions, which was then set afire. Some anti-fascists were burned alive; others were shot or beaten to death as they tried to escape the blaze. The youngest victim was just 17.
The Court ruled that there had been
violations of the right to life/investigation on account of the authorities’ failure to … prevent the violence in Odessa and to ensure timely rescue measures for people trapped in the fire.
The Court decision makes clear that firefighters were instructed not to respond to emergency calls from people trapped in the city’s House of Trade Unions when it was set ablaze. The Maidan coup regime actively wanted these people to die. [emphasis mine]
Is the European Court of Human Rights a Russian propaganda outlet?
