Russian propaganda is now blaming Ukraine not only for "nazism" but also for "satanism" (sic!)

Recent article by Kirill Frolov, a Russian Orthodox fundamentalist close to patriarch Kirill, calls Zelensky a "globalist-satanist", Ukraine an "anti-Orthodox, anti-human project" 1/3
Russia, it says, has a mission of "saving the world from evil" and its army is not only denazifying Ukraine but also "fulfilling its religious duty to save its historical lands from satanism".

Speaker @r_stefanchuk: Every criminal must bear responsibility for what he has done. I`m convinced that the @UN International Court of Justice & @IntlCrimCourt will have their say.

The tribunal should deal exclusively with crimes related to🇷🇺's military aggression against #Ukraine and the genocide of the 🇺🇦 people. This means that the fact of 🇷🇺's armed aggression against🇺🇦 is individualized from hundreds of other cases considered in courts of GIJ.
