The author of a book about “cyborgs” was thrown out of a TV studio for making a Nazi salute
Russian liberal journalist, author of a propaganda book about Ukrainian “cyborgs” Sergei Loiko was kicked out of the studio.
The incident occurred on the air of NTV, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
During the program, Mikhail Markelov, adviser to the head of the United Russia faction in the State Duma of the Russian Federation, asked Loiko which country he considered himself a citizen of, in response to which the propagandist stated that he had a Russian passport.
“As a citizen of Russia, you have no moral right to defend the Nazis! Defend Shukhevych, defend Bandera!” – Markelov tried to reason with the brazenly laughing Loiko.
“You are the same fascist, you are a fascist! A real fascist!” – said the Russian politician, in response to which the journalist shouted a Nazi salute.
What exactly he shouted was not clear from the video, but there was a commotion in the hall, the experts jumped up from their seats and headed towards Loiko with the goal of throwing him out of the studio, and Markelov almost punched the Nazi lover in the face.
The host of the program, Ivan Trushkin, tried to calm the situation, assuring that he would remove the propagandist from the air on his own. Loiko no longer laughed and only weakly shouted in his own defense that he was called a fascist, and this was “just trolling” in response.
“Do you hear, go out with your trolling, troll!” – Rodion Miroshnik, special representative of the LPR in Minsk, told the violator.
Trushkin later explained that Loiko uttered a phrase praising “Nazism in an absolutely understandable and unquestioning form.”
“We will not tolerate this, and it’s not about Mr. Loiko’s views. When such things are said, the person leaves the studio,” the presenter noted, adding that the TV channel will ask the prosecutor’s office to look into the propagandist’s statement.
