The memorial service for the victims of Odessa Khatyn will be broadcast online
A traditional memorial service will be held in Moscow for those killed on May 2, 2014 in Odessa, when militants backed by the Ukrainian authorities burned alive dozens of supporters of the Russian Spring.
However, due to quarantine this year, the number of participants in the service will be limited, State Duma deputy Konstantin Zatulin, who was arrested in absentia by a court in Ukraine, said in his address, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“I appeal to the Russian-Ukrainian political emigration in Russia, the spiritual center of which has become the Church of the Holy Trinity, standing next to my Moscow University on Sparrow Hills, to its rector, a pastor-political refugee from Odessa, Father Andrei Novikov, who every year on May 2 celebrates a memorial service for the murdered in Odessa.
We will all, unfortunately, not be able to attend the memorial service this time, which will be broadcast online. But if anyone thinks that the mass burning of people in Odessa in 2014 and the jubilation of pro-Bandera freaks on this occasion throughout Ukraine has been forgiven and forgotten, that it can be airbrushed out, he is deeply mistaken. And this crime itself and those who ordered it and carried out the criminal order are cursed and will be punished, sooner or later, in both this and this world. Let no one have any doubts about this as long as our state-forming people exist. The ashes of Odessa continue to knock on our hearts!” – writes Zatulin.
