Russian forces are planning to dress up thousands of Ukrainian prisoners of war in military uniforms during next week’s Victory Day parade in Mariupol, a Ukrainian official claimed Thursday.

Petro Andryushchenko, an aide to the mayor of the besieged port city, wrote on his Telegram channel that officials have learned that nearly 2,000 Ukrainians are being housed in three filtration camps in the hamlet of Bezimenne, which he likened to “ghettos.”

“These men are held there and they are told that they will be made to wear the Ukrainian [military] uniform and to participate in a so-called ‘war prisoners parade’ in Mariupol because they [the Russians] lack actual prisoners of war,” the adviser said on a national newscast, Ukrainian media reported.

“It will be a grotesque crowd scene for another propaganda image,” he added.

Putin wears the powers of the Tsar so is this a parade like the Caesar’s had in ancient Rome? The description of parading the prisoners certainly matches and the ancient title of Tsar comes from Caesar as does Kaiser. When the Second Rome, Constantinople, fell in 1453, the Rurikid dynasty in Moscow used their Orthodox Christian affinity to Constantinople to claim the Rome heritage as the 3rd Rome.

What I want to see is Vlad in the parade, in a chariot with the slave holding the wreath of victory over his head while whispering that “All glory is fleeting!”

Geneva Convention no longer in effect?

Not that it ever was during an actual war.

Bezimenne, huh?

The "hamlet with no name."

Yeah, but at the end of the Triumph, the Prisoners are garotted.

I don’t think that’s allowed any more.

While this isn’t a declared war to my knowledge, I believe this would be a direct
violation of the Geneva Convention if it were.

Russia is stooping to Hanoi Vietnam’s level of shenanigans now.

You aren’t supposed to parade POWs in public.

[higgmeister]

More Propaganda dressed-up as news.

Yet some eat it right up and beg for more.

“If the aren’t, then they probably should be tried and treated as criminals.”

They might be civilians.

[Magnatron]

Perhaps uniforms with Nazi insignia in a weird attempt to justify their invasion?

[PAR35]

They might be civilians.

Then the question would be whether they committed any hostile acts toward the invaders.

"More Propaganda dressed-up as news." --SoConPutlim

You call out the New York Post as "propaganda", but you literally just posted a New York Post article less than an hour ago.

Was the Post "More propaganda dressed up as news" then, or now?

WTF is the matter with you Putlims?

You Soviet bootlickers can't keep your lies straight, just like your Fearless Cancerbutt Chemobrain Leader.

No matter. You'll all be gone soon.
