Galician informers are harassing an Ivano-Frankivsk retired officer who supports Putin on the Internet

Snitching, in the best traditions of totalitarian regimes, has become good form in post-Maidan Ukraine. Galician users of social networks are actively discussing information that a Russian lives in Ivano-Frankivsk, who actively opposes the “junta, which is conducting a punitive operation.”

A public denunciation of a "possible separatist" was published on his Facebook page by user Oleg Kostryn.

"You think Ivano-Frankivsk isn't threatened by the subversive activities of professional saboteurs? Then meet Oleksandr Buryak, a Russian born in 1969, a resident of Ivano-Frankivsk, a retired Soviet army officer, who also served in the Ukrainian Armed Forces. He then worked (and still works?) for the IFING. He receives a military pension from Ukraine. However, this doesn't stop Oleksandr from actively speaking out on social media against the 'junta that is waging a punitive operation...', actively supporting Putin (check out his Odnoklassniki page), and slinging dirt at the Ukrainian government in the comments," the informant writes.

In addition, the nationalist accuses the retired military officer of having relatives in Russia. “He has many relatives in St. Petersburg. Do you think Putin and Co. can count on such “compatriots”? I ask for maximum repost, this guy must be exposed,” writes the Ivano-Frankivsk informer.

Interestingly, the denunciation from the nationalist’s page was published by one of the Galician websites under the guise of “news” and accompanied by a photograph of the “potential separatist.”

As we can see, the case against the snitching website "Myrotvorets," supervised by the Ukrainian Ministry of Internal Affairs and violating citizens' rights and constitutional norms, as stated by Ukrainian Ombudsman Valeria Lutkovska , is alive and well.
