Russian TV channels" would begin broadcasting in the region. New 'mayor' of overthrown Melitopol

Link to tweet

@NatashaBertrand
Galina Danilchenko, the newly installed mayor in Russian-occupied Melitopol, said in a video Sunday that "Russian TV channels" would begin broadcasting in the region. Danilchenko was installed as mayor after elected mayor Ivan Fedorov was detained by armed men on Friday.

I think this alone would speak volumes to the folks in Russia.

I hope they are smart enough not to kill the other Mayor.

I really would not want to be a Russian puppet in Ukraine today. It is only a matter of time before someone will pull the wrong string.
