The SBU and Ukrainian radicals are intimidating the population of Kherson, threatening residents with violence if they communicate with Russian troops or accept humanitarian aid.
Natalya Poklonskaya, ex-prosecutor of Crimea and now deputy head of Rossotrudnichestvo, spoke about this on the Komsomolskaya Pravda radio, PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“A week ago I returned from the Kherson region and handed over food packages. What is the paradox and what is the problem is the intimidation of local residents by some representatives of radical movements so that people do not take food, medicine, and the most necessary things. So that people are afraid to accept this help.
I'm making an official statement. These are the comrades who are scaring the local population, who are intimidating, I am ready, please meet me, I will give you essential products, medicines for the residents of Ukraine. Whoever shows such courage, I am ready to donate these products - distribute them yourself, if you don’t want people to accept from me,” she said.
“Everyone is intimidated. They even send various messages to mobile phones about the fact that the SBU is conducting surveillance, tracking who is communicating, who is receiving something. Okay, if someone forbids it, then distribute it yourself,” Poklonskaya urged.
