Russian Greens blast Jill Stein’s silence on Putin’s human rights abuses
Two representatives of the Russian Green Party eviscerated American Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein today for her cozy relationship with Russian president Vladimir Putin.
The Russian Greens said Stein was a willing accomplice of Putins human rights abuses against the LGBT community, environmentalists, artists, journalists and political dissidents:
By silencing Putins crimes you are silencing our struggle. By shaking his hand and failing to criticize his regime you are becoming his accomplice. By forgetting what international solidarity means you are insulting the Russian environmental movement.
In particular, Russian environmental activists Yevgeniya Chirikova and Nadezda Kutepova criticized Stein for her recent trip last winter to Moscow to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Russian state propaganda organ. The event included a dinner at which Stein sat at the same dinner table as Putin.
At the same dinner table was seated Donald Trumps military adviser, retired-Gen. Mike Flynn. Flynn was seated directly next to Putin.
