Azov Leader Admits to Ukrainian Use of ‘Blocking Detachments’
theamericanconservative.com ^ | Jun 19, 2024 | Mason Letteau Stallings

In a June 16 interview with the news channel of Ukraine’s army, Armiya TV, an Azov commander admitted to his unit being used to prevent other Ukrainian units from retreating. 

Dmitry Kukharchuk, the commander of the Second Battalion of Ukraine’s Third Assault Brigade, the current iteration of the neo-Nazi-linked unit, recounts a moment in 2022 when his unit was positioned behind a unit of Ukraine’s territorial defense forces (TRO) to prevent its retreat:

We [Azov] were motivational troops then. We then helped the 110th brigade of the TRO. I can't say anything bad about them, because for a TRO they fought quite well, but, again, as a TRO they had to be motivated. And then my detachment—I was then the commander of a detachment of 500 men—was evenly distributed along a 25-kilometer line….

Biden Administration Allows Military Aid to Ukraine’s Azov Brigade
theamericanconservative.com ^ | Jun 12, 2024 | Mason Letteau Stallings

A State Department spokesman on Monday stated that Ukraine’s infamous Azov Brigade will now be eligible to receive military aid, claiming that Ukraine’s current Azov Brigade is structurally distinct from its past iterations as a National Guard unit formed from a ultranationalist militia with neo-Nazi elements. 

SNIP

The unit had many ties with various neo-Nazi and ultranationalist groups. Its founder, Andriy Biletsky, had in the past publicly stated that he believed that the “mission” of the Ukrainian nation was to “lead the white races of the world in a final crusade…against Semite-led Untermenschen.”

SNIP

Russia has responded to the Biden administration’s move by stating that Washington is “flirting with Neo-Nazis.”

A page right out of Stalin's book Order No. 227

The order directed that each army must create "blocking detachments" at the rear that would shoot "panic-mongers and cowards"

The Ukrainians claim Russia does it too. That may be right, given your Stalin source. However, I posted about it because Biden just authorized American 'foreign aid' funds to go to the Azov military, as the Ukraine is clearly losing the war. The Ukraine is conscripting men and boys ages 15 to 70 (and handicapped) to go fight; they are under-equipped, under-trained; and there's insufficient air support to keep them alive. Now imagine the United States funding  Azovs  behind the conscripts, to block boys and old men from retreat. It sounds like a nightmare, but perhaps it ends quickly (death).

I thought it was interesting that the Ukraine is using the Azovs with minimal risk to their lives by putting them behind the canon fodder.

They motivated their fellow Ukrainians by shooting at them if they tried to retreat. Zelensky wouldn't do that to his own people? Never.

But Monterrosa-24 swears that Biden has the best interest of Ukraine & her citizens at heart, and he is so blinded by that belief that he refuses to see the reality. Monterrosa-24 is not only married to a Ukrainian women, he's visited there as well.

I'm not mocking him, because he does have a personal investment in this conflict, but he refuses to see that Biden does not have Ukraine or her citizens best interests at heart. He has been using them as fodder by goading Putin into invading to protect Russian speaking Ukrainians in eastern Ukraine. e refuses to accept that Biden is evil. But worse yet he fails to recognize that he himself is complicit in the very slaughterhouse that exists by not seeking the peaceful solution of Ukraine remaining neutral & not joining NATO.

You stinking liar. I’ve never said any such thing about Biden and Ukraine. I’ve said that Biden is no friend of Ukraine. You and Biden are both evil liars.

If that is true, then you should have no problem pointing to that comment you made about Biden is no friend of Ukraine.

You dismiss that this administration created thus proxy war, along with Boris Johnson. You support the continued fight for Ukraine to regain all of its landmass including the Crimea, despite the heavy toll being exacted upon Ukraine and the Ukrainian, because you buy into the propaganda hook, line & sinker. You even refuse to accept that what transpired in eastern Ukraine was the actions of Ukraine's Azov Nazis.

I do not remember you ever saying anything against Biden, but I will humbly apologize if you can find that post you claim you made, and that the post was made to me.

But here is more proof that what I have been trying to make you see the truth as to how this Ukraine/Russia really started:
