> Federation Council Deputy Speaker Konstantin Kosachev accused Europe of condemning Ratko Mladic and Serbia while ignoring what he called “misanthropic nationalism” in Ukraine. He said at least 16,000 people in Donbass had been killed before the start of the special military operation by alleged heirs and followers of Ukrainian nationalists. Mladic died in a Hague prison at 84.
