"Margarita Simonyan: And we just need… It is not only for our own geopolitical reasons that we can no longer fail to bring this to an end. We simply, as pathetic as it sounds, owe it to humanity. Humanity. Because otherwise the people who remain hostages there will continue to be eliminated to the last and the present-day Ukrainian Talaat Pasha in the person of, I don’t know, you can list a lot of names.....

Vladimir Solovyov: Yes, and Azov soldiers are seen who suggest cutting off children’s heads…

Margarita Simonyan: Yes, they will be calling present-day US ambassador Morgenthau to proudly report that three fourths have been eliminated, and just a bit has left, otherwise they will definitely take revenge. We must this beast that has grown up there and it grew up long ago, some people say today that they have been messed about for 8 years. There were no eight years at all when they were messed about.

They have stayed and have been running there since the Great Patriotic (ed.: war). Yes, those in the forests were killed, but it has remained in brains. The mother told me who in the early 1990s was a shuttle trader, you remember, when it was poverty and there was nothing to eat. The mother was shuttling to feed us, kids. And she says that she feared most of all in Lvov.

So, when they were moving through Lvov, moving to Europe, one should not speak Russian at all, even pronounce a word. Otherwise, they would be beaten or even killed, and the property will be taken away. And this was, just think a while, 1992. 1992, before all those Turchinovs, and moreover Zelenskiys and Poroshenkos and others. It is necessary to finish it off in the end, to etch it out, and you know, like a blister, like a flux, like a boil to squeeze out, because if something remains in the boil, it will rot later, then gangrene can begin.

Vladimir Solovyov: But now this will be rotting in Europe."
