The prosecutor in the Yashin trial: “On a stream called “Putin is being prepared for a tribunal, hell meets Zhirinovsky, Khinshtein scribbles denunciations,” the defendant, anticipating the onset of socially dangerous consequences, spread false information about the alleged crimes committed in Bucha.”
Ilya Yashin retorts: “In my video, I followed the classic standards of journalism and gave the opinion of both sides. In fact, I am being tried for publicly doubting the words of the authorities.”
Commenting on the accusation of fakes, Yashin cites “a classic statement by V.V. Putin”: “Whoever calls himself that, he himself is called that!”
There is laughter in the hall. The guards are asking for silence.
