Talk:Yanina Sokolova

Calls to kill Russians in an interview with a Ukrainian channel.
In 2022 Sokolova on the air of the Ukrainian TV channel stated the following: "I believe that the Russians have a collective disease that has no cure other than their extermination. I want them all exterminated as soon as possible. ... Russians should not be taken prisoner, they should just be killed." Etc. Russian "unreliable" media wrote about her Ukrainian TV speech full of calls to kill (by the way, it was also about those Russians who are in opposition to Putin and have a pro-Ukrainian position, she clearly clarified this: "Normal Russians, who remain with a pro-Ukrainian position") but, remarkably, there was not a single Western media that even briefly mentioned her speech, and therefore not a single media that could be cited as a source here on Wikipedia. It is not difficult to imagine that if such xenophobic remarks were made by some well known Russian against Ukrainians, the information about it would be mentioned even in the preamble, because only a lazy Western journalist would not write about it. There is a fact of hate speech, that piece of interview (in Ukrainian) is publicly available, everyone can hear and see it, but only Russian media wrote about it. In Wikipedia, the mention of this remarkable xenophobic statement with calls to kill all Russians has no prospects of being reflected in the article? 92.255.220.28 (talk) 17:03, 12 November 2023 (UTC)
