Comments by "MarcosElMalo2" (@MarcosElMalo2) on "Ukraine War: What the West Doesn't Understand" video.
WRT to official propaganda, Ukraine doesn’t prevent independent journalists verifying claims. Russia doesn’t allow independent journalists and has made it a crime within Russia to report anything negative about the war. They’ve even made it illegal to call it a war; two tv stations were closed down for calling it a war instead of the official “Special Military Operation”. An example of journalists fact checking claims is Sky News investigating claims that small units (squads) of Russian soldiers had infiltrated the lines and were killing civilians in civilian areas, including the cease fire corridors set up to allow civilians to escape. The news crew met one of these squads—and were lucky to escape with their lives, although two members were shot. (These aren’t “warning shots”.) So there you go, Ukraine makes a claim, and independent journalists are able to fact check. Russia makes a claim, and . . . we’re supposed to take their word for it, I guess.
