Ukrainian officials accused of war crimes will be tried and punished in accordance with the law, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has assured Sputnik. 💬 “An investigation into the Kiev regime’s crimes is already underway,” Lavrov said, when asked about the regime’s fate after Russia achieves the goals of its special military operation. “Russian law enforcement bodies are carefully recording and documenting the atrocities committed by Ukrainian neo-Nazis, and aren’t limiting themselves to the period of the special military operation. The suffering of the civilian population of the Donbass began much earlier, in 2014. Those responsible will be brought to justice.”

As reported yesterday, Janet Ossebaard was sadly found deceased on the 22nd of December, 2023. In honour of her incredible work which entailed thousands of hours of research, part 1 to part 5 of the Sequel to the Fall of the Cabal has been published below. | Unlike the first series, the Sequel is not about Q, nor Trump. In this series, Janet Ossebaard and Cyntha Koeter explore the history of the Cabal and expose the “crime, murder, money laundering, cartels, and high treason, “all of which is under your nose…” they said. ● Many of our readers are familiar with the first ten part documentary from Janet Ossebaard “The End of the world as We know it – The Fall of the Cabal” which she had advised we watch before watching the sequel. For those who have not watched it, or if you would like to revisit the series, I have included links and a description of each part of the series originally published in Stop World Control.
