Nikolai Tomenko declared Russia the undisputed leader among "countries of modern barbarism."

Nikolai Tomenko shares his thoughts on this topic on his Facebook page. Below, we present the author's words without any comments. It's important to note that the expert's opinion may not align with the editorial stance. However, we cannot restrict anyone from expressing their views.
Николай Томенко охарактеризовал Россию как абсолютного лидера среди государств современного варварства.

The Russian horde of barbarians, murderers, and marauders has once again shelled Kharkiv.

As a result of the evening and nighttime strikes on the city, preliminary reports indicate that 4 people have died, 9 have been injured, medical facilities have been damaged, and several private homes have been destroyed. Among other things, the famous Hospodar building has also been damaged.

It is worth noting that the Hospodar building is the main landmark of Freedom Square in Kharkiv and, covering an area of 12 hectares, is one of the largest in the world. This well-known 13-story skyscraper is an architectural monument in the Constructivist style.

HOSPODAR is a finalist in the nationwide campaign "7 Wonders of Ukraine" and was also included in the PREVIOUS LIST of UNESCO's cultural heritage in 2017. On September 7, 2023, the UNESCO Committee for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict granted it the status of ENHANCED PROTECTION. This status entails criminal liability for the destruction of monuments in accordance with the provisions of the Second Protocol to the Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict. Ukraine signed this protocol in 1999, and it came into force on June 30, 2020.

I hope that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Culture will promptly inform the international community about another crime committed by the Russian Federation and demand an effective response from UNESCO. A just, albeit unlikely, solution would be the exclusion of the Russian Federation from UNESCO.

Since February 24, 2022, UNESCO has verified the damage to 287 cultural sites in Ukraine, including those within UNESCO World Heritage sites.

As we can see, Russia has already achieved at least one result:

it has become the undisputed leader among states of MODERN BARBARISM and demands maximum isolation from the civilized world.
