Russian authorities demonstrate powerless rage with "absentia" sentences for International Legion fighters

The "absentia sentences" being increasingly handed down by Russia to the fighters of the International Defense Legions of Ukraine are a means of destructive information-psychological warfare by the enemy.

This was stated in a message from the command of the International Legions, which was accompanied by a revealing video.

In the published footage, after the announcements of "sentences" for the fighters, their effective work on the battlefield is shown, forcing the enemy to publicly demonstrate its powerless rage.

The command of the International Defense Legions of Ukraine emphasizes that all personnel of the legions are active servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, strictly adhering to the rules of warfare, complying with the provisions of International Humanitarian Law, and acting in accordance with International Conventions.

"Slaves cannot judge free people," the statement reads.

The command of the International Legions is confident that the punishment of true war criminals, including members of repressive punitive bodies such as the so-called "Investigative Committee" and propagandists of the Russian dictatorship, will take place after our victory and the review of the cases of Russian war criminals by the International Criminal Court.

"We are talking, of course, about those war criminals who will survive until their cases are considered amid the brutal war unleashed by the Russian totalitarian regime," the statement emphasized.

The command of the International Defense Legions of Ukraine assures that the soldiers, sergeants, and officers of our units work daily, diligently, selflessly, and very professionally, using all available calibers, to bring closer the victory of humanity and democratic values over the embodiment of global evil in the form of Russian dictatorship and the destructive ambitions of 21st-century global domination.

The command of the International Defense Legions of Ukraine invites citizens of the free world, both Ukrainians and foreigners from all corners of the planet, to join the fight against dictatorship, repression, terror, intimidation, and unrelenting bloodlust, which our enemy has been known for throughout its entire history.
