He talked about killing Russian children during a portion of a show on the Channel 24 station.
“I know that as a journalist, I have to be objective,” he said. “I have to be balanced in order to report information to you with a cold heart, but to tell you the truth, it’s very hard to hold on now, especially at a time like this.”
He went on to reference the claim that Ukrainians had been called Nazis by some Russians: “[S]ince we are called Nazis, fascists, and so on in Russia — I will allow myself to quote Adolf Eichmann, who said that in order to destroy a nation, you must destroy, first of all, children. Because if you kill their parents, the children will grow up and take revenge. By killing children — they will never grow up and the nation will disappear.”
Eichmann was a German-Austrian SS-Obersturmbannführer and a major organizer of the Holocaust.
Sharafmal went on to say that he would kill Russian children himself.
“The Armed Forces of Ukraine cannot kill Russian children because it is forbidden by the rules of war, and it is prohibited by various conventions, including the Geneva Convention. But I am not from the Armed Forces of Ukraine. And when I get the chance to take out the Russians, I will definitely do it.”
He added that he would help “slaughter all [Russian] families” if needed.
“Glory to the nation! And hope that there will never be such a nation as Russia and the Russians on this earth again. Because they are just scum who are destroying this land. If the Ukrainians have the opportunity, which they are basically doing right now, to destroy, to slaughter, to kill, to strangle the Muscovites.”
The version of the clip uploaded to YouTube by Channel 24 was clipped and does not include the murderous rant.
Many questioned the authenticity of this pro-genocide Ukrainian TV broadcast.
Here’s the official version from Channel 24’s YouTube.
