War Day 66 :: war chronicles with Advisor to Ukraine President, Intel Officer, Alexey Arestovych

There is a lot of pro-Putin bias in the Western world. We aim to dispel this “macho” propaganda and reveal true colors of his regime: murder, intimidation, industrialized kleptocracy and well-funded russian fascism propaganda machines.
