Thursday after guests on Kremlin-backed TV defied Moscow and openly criticised the brutal conflict in Ukraine, calling the invasion 'even worse than Afghanistan'.
Guests
have refused to support the narrative pushed through by television
hosts on Putin's request that Russia has been conducting a 'special
operation' to 'demilitarise' and 'de-Nazify' Ukraine – claims dismissed
as baseless pretexts by Kyiv and her partners in the West.
One
who appeared on one of Russia 1's prime time talk show 'An Evening with
Vladimir Soloviev' rebelled by referring to the USSR's disastrous
invasion of Afghanistan in 1979 which ended in withdrawal ten years
later." DM
