Lyudmila Denisova, a former Ukrainian Parliamentary Commissioner for Human Rights, has claimed that she “exaggerated” claims of sex crimes allegedly committed by Russian soldiers in order to “convince the world to contribute weapons and pressure” on behalf of Kiev’s leadership. Denisova claimed her exaggerations worked on at least one occasion in an interview published Friday in a Ukrainian outlet:
From Sputnik News:
“When, for example, I spoke in the Italian parliament at the Committee on International Affairs, I heard and saw such fatigue from Ukraine, you know? I talked about terrible things in order to somehow push them to make the decisions that Ukraine and the Ukrainian people need.” Italy’s Five Star Movement, Denisova claimed, was originally “against the provision of weapons to us, but after [her] speech, one of the party leaders… said that they will support [us], including by the provision of weapons.”
Denisova was removed from her post as human rights ombudswoman for spreading misinformation following a no-confidence vote of 234-to-9 by Ukraine’s parliament on May 31. As Newsweek reported in the days that followed, one member of the Ukrainian parliament, Pavlo Frolov, provided a number of reasons why Denisova was removed, including “the numerous details of ‘unnatural sexual offenses’ and child sexual abuses in the occupied territories, which were unsupported by evidence.” Frolov reportedly claimed that such misinformation has “only harmed Ukraine.”
But there’s little doubt that Denisova’s penchant for “exaggeration” has harmed Russia as well. Since the beginning of the Russian Federation’s special military operations in Ukraine in February, the disgraced ombudswoman’s dramatized claims have been presented as fact in dozens of mainstream publications, including CNN and the Washington Post.
The media was quick to put this woman’s BS claims out but couldn’t care less about correcting the record.
Zelensky and his underlings have been lying nonstop about every aspect of the war from the very beginning in an attempt to con the West into World War III. What really makes this story truly noteworthy is that Denisova was actually punished.
Remember how Ukrainian MP Lesia Vasylenko shared a photo of a woman journalist Patrick Lancaster reported was tortured in an Azov basement and every media outlet from the New York Post to Newsweek ran with it knowing full well it was a lie?
Ukrainian atrocity propaganda literally reinterpreting Azov war crimes as Russian ones; the dead mutilated woman was discovered in an Azov basement in Mariupol a week ago, those images are swimming all over Telegram. https://t.co/JxK7EyeiTE pic.twitter.com/TIYS3uZWve

Russian soldiers loot, rape and kill. 10 y.o. girls with vaginal and rectal tears. Women with swastika shaped burns. Russia. Russian Men did this. And Russian mothers raised them. A nation of immoral criminals

Where are those “fact check” boxes Twitter placed on every one of Trump’s tweets now that this crap has been debunked?
Vasylenko’s Twitter feed is just an endless string of intentional misinformation and atrocity propaganda interspersed with demands for Western weaponry.
Countries that say ‘no’ to weapon transfer to #Ukraine do realize that they are contributing to autocratic regime change in #Europe? And disappearance of an independent country? And human right abuses? #Switzerland sticking to ‘neutrality’ is one example

All those fighter jets in the #jubilee parade should be going to #Ukraine. Actually all countries that have weapons they don’t use should send them to Ukraine. Because the more ???????? has, the less likely it is the other countries will need them for anything other than parades pic.twitter.com/NYyEigwVs1

Rockets are a continued threat to all of the territory of #Ukraine. The country really needs Israel’s iron done air defence system. ???? negotiations on this will come to fruition sooner rather than later

If Denisova was dismissed for pushing fake atrocity propaganda why is Zelensky still in power? How are his endless lies any different?
