Ukrainian admiral ready to go to Russian prison instead of detained sailors

1
It seems that the Ukrainian president Petro Poroshenko has a serious rival, ready to compete with him for the degree of cynicism and hypocrisy.





The commander of the Ukrainian Navy, one of the twelve Ukrainian admirals, Igor Voronchenko, in an interview with the German publication Bild, stated that he was ready to go to jail in exchange for Ukrainian sailors who were detained after the provocation that they staged in the waters of the Kerch Strait, violating the border of the Russian Federation.

According to the admiral, his heart breaks from the realization that the Ukrainian sailors are "illegally" held in Russia and that he is ready to go to a Russian prison instead of them if they return.

It is difficult to imagine the degree of cynicism and hypocrisy of the Ukrainian admiral Voronchenko, whose language turns to talk about pity for the Ukrainian sailors, whom he himself, knowingly, sent to commit a crime.

Probably, not far from the truth will be the assumption that initially the commander of the Ukrainian Navy hoped that the sailors would not return at all. In favor of this is evidenced by weapons and stockpiles of ammunition seized from Ukrainian sailors by Russian border guards.

At the same time, Voronchenko knows perfectly well that no one will change him and his words are nothing more than a beautiful gesture designed for the internal consumer.
