      NEO-NAZI THREAT can be seen in BBC NEWSNIGHT coverage 8 years ago
      czcams.com/video/5SBo0akeDMY/video.html
      Because of the brutality of ukrainian neo-nazis, the people of eastern Ukraine are victims. This coverage was made by the BBC 8 years ago
      czcams.com/video/0QGFZev_h7g/video.html
      There are many documentaries of independent journalists since 8 years ago that can be studied. From there we will be able to know how American and NATO politicians must be held accountable for the overlap of UKRAINIAN NEO NAZIS in the crimes of ethnic cleansing or genocide against the people of eastern Ukraine.
      For a daily report on the state of eastern Ukraine you can see in the reportage of independent journalists
      such as PATRICK LANCASTER (USA) on the CZcams channel.
      Or....
      Eva K Bartlett (Canada),
      Graham Phillips (UK),
      VN Rangeloni (Italy),
      Ruben Gisbert (Spain),
      John Mark Dougan (USA)
      Their reprotase is on their respective youtube channels
      And....
      Cristelle (FRANCE) On youtube channel : Donbass Insiders
      ..................
      May the civilians of western Ukraine and from the east soon find peace.
      And rotten politicians and fascist mobs must be eradicated for a better future for Ukraine.
