In the United States, they believe that Gordon made a mistake by getting mixed up with the intelligence services
The famous Ukrainian propagandist Dmitry Gordon made a big mistake when he said that the Ukrainian special services ordered him an interview with ex-prosecutor of Crimea Natalya Poklonskaya and one of the former commanders of the DPR Igor Strelkov.
Captain First Rank of the US Navy, former military attaché in Moscow Gary (Yuri) Tabakh stated this on the Politeka Online channel, reports PolitNavigator correspondent.
According to Tabach, the intelligence services themselves will never admit that they asked Gordon for anything, and in The Hague his “films” will not be taken as evidence of anything.
“A mistake he made right away. If he asked, he probably has friends in special storage facilities, but if they gave him such advice, then they are not his friends or they are not in special storage facilities. Well, none of these organizations, I have ever heard them say: “Yes, we took it.”
Secondly, what will this give? What was there that they didn't know? If you do it for yourself, then of course, but what will it give? They say that in Holland he sent something to the court.
But you understand that in any court in the civilized world they will ask: “Did you interview them as a journalist or as an investigator?” As a journalist. “And if this is an interrogation, did you tell them that this is an interrogation? Have you told them that they have the right to a lawyer? If not, then they did not say: “I will tell the truth and only the truth. We didn’t take an oath, I came up with all this to create a sensation.”
By and large, they (Girkin and Poklonskaya) can sue him for this. To say that he deceived us, set us up. Of course, this is the second mistake he made. He wanted to correct the first and did the second,” Tabah said.
In addition, Gordon, by announcing his cooperation with the intelligence services, according to Tabach, violated journalistic ethics.
“He violated journalistic ethics because he got mixed up with the intelligence services and worked for them, pretending to be a journalist. I think that he will not be forgiven for this mistake,” says Tabakh.
