What can save sentenced mercenaries from the death penalty in the DPR

32

On Thursday, June 9, the DNR sentenced to death three foreign mercenaries who took part in the hostilities on the side of the Armed Forces of Ukraine: the British Sean Pinner and Aiden Aslin and the Moroccan Saadun Brahim. They are accused of mercenarism, an attempt to seize power by force and committing a crime as part of a group of people.

The United States and Great Britain accepted the decision of the Donetsk judges with some bewilderment. According to US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken and British Foreign Minister Liz Truss, convicted citizens are protected by international law, and the DPR court is "fictitious", like the republic itself.



Meanwhile, Washington and London are trying to appeal to Moscow so that it influences the decision of the DPR and assists in the exchange of prisoners. However, as Vladislav Berdichevsky, deputy of the People's Council of the DPR, noted, war crimes were committed on the territory of the republic and Russia has nothing to do with what is happening.

The West should address this issue directly to the authorities of the Donetsk People's Republic. However, the “civilized world” and Kyiv do not recognize either the DPR or the LPR and do not want to enter into a dialogue.

In order to somehow influence the situation, they must recognize the DPR and enter into official negotiations on this issue with the authorities in Donetsk

- the parliamentarian emphasized in an interview LOOK.

Thus, the West fell into a legal trap set by itself. Whether the Americans and the British will decide to contact the independent republics of the East of Ukraine in order to save the lives of their citizens, time will tell.

      You can shoot the Moroccan first so that the British understand that the jokes are over

        No, not a Moroccan, but one of the British. Do not shoot, but put on a stake, so that his blood would not be shed. The stake may be given to them later.

          For non-shedding of blood, an ordinary gallows or, in the manner of the Spanish nobles, a garrote is better suited!

      Death penalty and no pardons. The people will not understand and will not forgive Pushilin such a step. To execute not immediately, but one at a time, the mercenaries must be alone in the cell for some time, a few days before the sentence is carried out. The very expectation of execution by firing squad will have a depressing effect on their psyche, and this is good. The fate of 2 Britons and a Moroccan woman should serve as a clear lesson to those who are still thinking of volunteering in Naurkain, to defend the "freedom and independence" of the Ukrainian Reich with a bloody clown at the head.

        Neither the people will understand, nor the military that they are fighting in Ukraine against these scum and Bandera scum, and I will generally cease to understand what is happening there at all. So something vague, quiet, is happening on the part of Russia. No clear and decisive actions.
        Well, if these three are pardoned or allowed to jump off the tower, then there will be no respect for the LDNR and Russia on the part of us Russians and the mercenaries will understand that there is an opportunity to bypass the execution and continue to go to the square.

      The entire execution process must be visible to the condemned. This will be good for the psyche. Facial expression, eyes, shoot on camera large. Put it on the Internet, with comments and sounds. A teaching aid will serve for the next generation of gentlemen of fortune.

      No pardon! Since the court recognized them in war crimes, their participation in executions against civilians in the DNR/LNR was proved - they must be executed! Otherwise, the people simply will not understand, and those in power, even in the Kremlin or even in Donetsk, will be undermined by the most valuable thing as justice.

      144 prisoners are in the hands of Ukraine. I am also for the death penalty for mercenaries, but the lives of our soldiers are dearer to me!

        There are many officers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine who can be exchanged plus privates and sergeants in captivity. He is not a prisoner of war and, logically, cannot be exchanged.

        Russia has almost 100 times more of their prisoners, and this is without any mercenaries so that there is someone to exchange for.

      And it is also necessary that at the international level, when submitting information and at official events, it always sounded whose mercenary it is, and not just "FOREIGN" !!!! To be concretized and accented !!!! To cut your ear!!!!
      As with Turkish drones ... The Turks of the poor thing were offended by the specifics. They do not like the expression "Turkish Bayraktars bombed the school" and so on.

      War criminals are not shot! They are HANGED! This is a shameful punishment. Isn't the "tanker" Truss not aware of this? After all, it was the "small-shaven" who introduced this tradition - to hang pirates on a yardarm ...

      Once upon a time, the English queen also did not want to recognize the Emir of Bukhara ... So it was necessary to execute the English officers who came across in Bukhara. So, the kingdom of heaven to the stuck murderers!
