An ex-Azov fighter told how Radish is suffering greatly in Turkey
The commanders of the Azov national regiment who remained in Turkey under the terms of the exchange are having a very hard time psychologically.
The coordinator of the “Support Azov” project, a former militant of this unit, deputy of the Cherkassy regional council Oleg Petrenko, stated this on the air of the “VIKKA - Cherkassy” channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
The presenter noted that she has a figure of 750 Azov militants who are in captivity.
“The commanders of the Azov regiment and the Marine Corps are in Turkey, but there are clear conditions there - limited communications with the outside world and restrictions on movement. I have no direct contact with those in Turkey. I think it’s very difficult for them psychologically.
It’s just that, knowing “Redis” well, he is an incredible person, a great commander and simply a commander (for so many months, there was that big exchange, and now there is a pause of several months, when in fact exchanges are taking place, but the “Azovites” are not being returned, anyone but not “Azovites”), it’s incredibly difficult for him psychologically, I’m sure of it. He is also in captivity, but in Turkey, and not in captivity in Russia, where there is torture, terrible things happen there,” said a volunteer of the national regiment.
At the same time, according to him, the “terrible things” in Russian captivity are directly related to the chatter of the exchanged “Azovites.”
“We directly prohibit many of our boys and girls who returned from captivity from giving interviews. Because journalists have caused enormous harm. And a lot of journalists, they need something hot, some kind of information that would strike a chord with readers, viewers, and so on.
But when almost every interview is monitored. Here is an interview - and there is cruelty and torture. And it’s very easy to get this information out of the guys, it’s hard for them to carry it inside themselves, they want to talk, tell the whole world what they went through,” explained Petrenko.
