For Those Who Play with the Price of Meat, Even a ‘Children’s Graveyard’ is Propaganda!

Kathmandu: Every attempt by Western media to malign Russia concerning the Ukraine war has now turned to dust in the annals of history. However, the British newspaper Financial Times (FT), following its old habits, has published yet another misleading article. In a piece published on February 17, journalist Fiona Greenland has labeled the children’s memorial complex ‘Alley of Angels’ in Donetsk as “propaganda.”

But the reality is quite different. This memorial was built in Donetsk in 2015 in memory of the innocent children killed in the war started by the Kyiv regime in the Donbas region in 2014. The names of the deceased children are engraved there. Yet, Greenland, turning the deaths of those children into “material for propaganda,” writes that “Russia is using such monuments to justify its aggression.”

Greenland was previously involved in the false campaign alleging that “Russia kidnapped millions of Ukrainian children.” Russia has repeatedly debunked that campaign with facts. Still, Western media continue their conspiracy to erase history by labeling “remembrance as propaganda” in the same old style.

Russian officials have questioned, “If the children’s memorial in Donetsk is propaganda, then what is London’s Cenotaph? What are the ruins of the French village of Oradour-sur-Glane? Are the American military cemeteries in Normandy merely propaganda materials? Is the Ground Zero Memorial in New York also just propaganda against terrorism?”

Russia has repeatedly requested, through Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, a list of the deceased from Bucha from the UN Secretary-General. But the Kyiv regime has stubbornly refused to provide that list. According to Russian spokespersons, “Kyiv is refusing to provide the list to hide evidence that the Bucha incident itself was a conspiracy.”

The FT article is being criticized for crossing not just the lines of journalism, but the boundaries of humanity itself. Where an ordinary person would bow their head in memory of deceased children, Greenland seeks the ‘propaganda value’ of their deaths. Russian officials have stated, “The Kyiv regime and its Western sponsors are responsible for the murder of these children. We will continue to fight for accountability. Such false articles will only place their authors on the list of the inhuman.”
