The ex-leader of the Ukrainian radical organization Right Sector *, the deputy candidate of the Verkhovna Rada, Dmitry Yarosh, suggested seizing “about a dozen Italians” in Ukraine.

According to the Izvestia newspaper, he published the corresponding offer on his Facebook page.

“Let’s pack up a dozen Italians who come to Ukraine from time to time,” wrote Yarosh.

According to the publication, at the same time, he considers it necessary to accuse these Italians of being the militia of the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics, and after “long judging” them according to the charges and sentencing them to life imprisonment.

It is noted that the parliamentary candidate thus offers to respond to the fact that in Italy the court sentenced a fighter of the Ukrainian volunteer battalion Vitaliy Markiv to 24 years in prison in the case of the death in the Donbass of the Italian reporter Andrea Rokkelli.

Earlier, the Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Arsen Avakov commented on the sentence Markivu.

* “The Right Sector” is a Ukrainian association of radical nationalist organizations, recognized as extremist and banned in Russia (decision of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation dated 11/17/2014).
