"American" jammed the insulting dead pilot Su-25
Grigory Vinnikov (Greg Weiner), an American journalist with Russian roots, who made harsh remarks about the Russian Su-25 pilot who died in Syria, promised to apologize to the pilot's family.
- said Vinnikov on the radio station "Moscow says".
Participating in Vladimir Solovyov’s political television show Sunday Night, Vinnikov, commenting on the feat of the Russian pilot, said: "He left the house, went to fight for land in Damascus." This was a kind of "American" response to the proposal of State Duma deputy Vyacheslav Nikonov to declare a moment of silence in memory of the deceased.
Vinnikov’s remark caused a stormy reaction from his opponents. Nikonov invited Solovyov to lead a moral freak out of the television studio. The host, without thinking twice, asked the American journalists to leave.
Major Filipov was buried in Voronezh on February 8. At parting with him came more than 30 thousand people.
It was an unfortunate joke on my part, tactless and inappropriate. I will certainly apologize to the family of pilot Filipov. They don’t joke about such things. It happens to everyone, it fell through. Something is jammed, I don’t know what is the matter
