💢 On May 18, Ukrainian President Zelensky commented on the surrender of the Azov hold-outs.

He lied that the surrender is a humanitarian mission overseen by the Ukrainain military and intelligence officers.

In turn, the representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, accused Zelensky of lying.

“To give the exit of people, which Russia has been offering for several weeks, for its humanitarian operation is to show the whole world how they have learned to lie over the past many years under the leadership of primarily American and NATO specialists in general,” the representative of the Foreign Ministry said in her interview on May 18.

Zakharova stressed that Russia offered to carry out the operation to withdraw the Azov militants from the territory of Azovstal in the same format since April and announced humanitarian corridors on a daily basis.
