Ukraine has Javelins, but it seems that freedom of speech is long gone there. Blogger Anatoly Shariy will be tried in Ukraine, where he faces a life sentence, official Kiev says. Shariy was detained in Spain on suspicion of treason, but was released 12 hours later. He will await possible extradition in his Catalan home.

The Ukrainian authorities had already tried to make Spain extradite Shariy, but without success: their request was found to be politically motivated. The blogger and journalist was granted political asylum in Europe nine years ago. Since then, he has been actively exposing the corrupt administrations of Presidents Poroshenko and Zelensky.

He has about 3 million subscribers on YouTube.  Zelensky declared a real war on the blogger: the Security Council of Ukraine even imposed sanctions against Shariy and his family, which is a direct violation of the Ukrainian Constitution. 

The Court of Appeal upheld the conviction of Lithuanian oppositionist Algirdas Paletskis: 6 years of imprisonment.  He is blamed for "espionage for Russia. It is additional proof that the clan of Landsbergis is afraid of Paleckis’ movement of "Dawn of Justice" which tells the truth about the events of January 13, 1991 in Vilnius, about social inequality and directly criticizes the suicidal foreign policy of Lithuania, operated from the USA.
