"Pass them hello": Putin "honored" the memory of the dead Russian soldiers

The governor of the Irkutsk region spoke about the dead "bold Russian soldiers" who "saved people" in Mariupol. The President of the Russian Federation, judging from his words, did not appreciate the heroism of the invaders. At a meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Governor of the Irkutsk region, Igor Kobzev, a statement was made, which caused ambiguous reactions.

During the conversation, the governor shared information about the awarding of some persons who participated in hostilities in Ukraine and were recognized as occupiers. In response, the President asked to pass them hello. This is evidenced by the transcript of the dictator's conversation with the official, published in the Kremlin's press service.

The governor presented information about the awarding of 192 people from his region, who, according to him, are participants in hostilities in Ukraine and were recognized as occupiers. State awards, including orders and medals, were awarded to these persons. In addition, the governor remembered the story of the invaders who allegedly sacrificed his life, closing a grenade to save his comrades during the occupation of Mariupol last March.

The official also added that such war criminals remain in the memory of the Russians forever. In response to these statements by the governor, Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke briefly and asked to transfer hello to the liquidated Russian invaders in Ukraine. "Hello to all pass them," said the main war criminal of Russia. We will remind that Russian President Vladimir Putin called an explosion on the Crimean bridge a terrorist attack and ordered that the victims would be assisted.
