Showing up in Kyiv in a car with Donetsk license plates is dangerous even for Azov militants
It is better to additionally hang a car with Ukrainian-style Donetsk license plates with Ukrainian flags and other Bandera paraphernalia in order to move safely around Kyiv.
Artyom “Yesenin” Shirobokov, an extremist who fled from Russia and ex-militant of the Azov national regiment, spoke about this on the YouTube channel “Islnd TV,” a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“In Ukraine, a certain part of people have prejudices against people from Donbass. I’m from Lugansk myself,” said the host of the program.
“I hate people like that. Who say that rednecks live in Donbass,” Shirobokov replied. – I remember we had an Azov man, and he had a car with Donetsk license plates. He had to hang it with Ukrainian flags on all sides, because in Kyiv windows were constantly being broken and tires deflated. This is p@@ts.”
“Because if a person is from Donbass, and he has already chosen this territory - Ukraine, not Rostov, for example. He came here to Kyiv as a refugee, no matter what he was, he had already chosen Ukraine, that is, you need to accept him as your own,” the ex-militant added.
Even for Azov militants, it's dangerous to show up in Kyiv in a car with Donetsk license plates.
