UKRAINIAN FEMALE NATIONALIST CONFESSES TO THE GUARDIAN HAVING PARTICIPATED IN KARABAKH WAR ON AZERBAIJANI SIDE
15:59 06/03/2015 >> IN THE WORLD
The Ukrainian volunteer battalions have a reputation for fierce
nationalism and far-right views. One of these units is the assault
battalion Aidar, whose members have been accused of human rights
abuses by Amnesty International. The volunteers include several
women among their ranks. One of them, nicknamed Mama Tanya, used to
live in Azerbaijan and took part in Karabakh war, British outlet The
Guardian writes.
According to the article, she said that in the 1990's she was living
with her husband in Azerbaijan and served as a medic during the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. Her experience and committed nationalism
has drawn her into yet another war in eastern Ukraine, where her
task is to administer first aid and pull wounded soldiers out of
battlefields during special operations.
It is necessary to highlight that the Ukrainian nationalists have more
than once confessed having fought on the Azerbaijani side in Nagorno
Karabakh and alongside with other mercenaries tried to back Azerbaijan
in its aggression against Nagorno Karabakh Republic in the 1990's.
Recently Colonel Roman Kulik, the military commissar of the province
Volynsky, Ukraine, has also confessed that the Ukrainian tank crewmen
remained to serve in the Azerbaijani army after the collapse of the
USSR and nationalization of the tank regiment. They not only fought
for Azerbaijan, but also taught recruits. The help of the mercenaries
from the former Soviet army, Afghan mujahideens, Chechen and Ukrainian
fighters did not save the Azerbaijani army. Despite the multiple
advantages in manpower and techniques, as well as the thousands of
mercenaries, the Azerbaijani army was defeated and thrown far away
from the initial borders.
