He published the photo of the newspaper article with his interview, where he spoke of his intention to run for a seat in the city council. Also, the article states that A.

The results of our research show that soldiers of the 234th AAR participated in all conflicts sparkled by Russia in the post-Soviet space.\r\n\r\nIn some cases, those who executed criminal orders go into politics to further the aggressive policies of their state. Identification of each of them is important both for future legal cases and for the introduction of personal sanctions against the occupiers.\r\n\r\nAll the units of the Russian Armed Forces and other uniformed services, which participated in the aggression against Ukraine, Georgia and Syria and have been positively identified by the InformNapalm volunteers, are cataloged in our <a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/db\/russian-aggression\/#lang=en&amp;page=m_unit\">Russian Aggression<\/a> database.\r\n\r\n<em>Please note: Links to social network accounts, archives and photos you can find on <a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/46163-ustanovleny-imena-desyati-desantniko\/\">Russian<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/ua\/vstanovleni-imena-desiaty-desantnyki\/\">Ukrainian<\/a> InformNapalm pages<\/em>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2016\/08\/InformNapalm_logo_05.png\"><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-8997\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2016\/08\/InformNapalm_logo_05.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"182\" height=\"80\" \/><\/a><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">This publication was prepared specially for\u00a0InformNapalm..\r\n<strong>An active link to the authors and our project is obligatory for any reprint or further public use of the material.<\/strong><strong>\r\n<\/strong>(Creative Commons - Attribution 4.0 International - <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/4.0\/\">CC BY 4.0<\/a> ) <strong>\r\n<\/strong><strong>Repost and share with friends.<\/strong> Subscribe to the InformNapalm community pages on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/informnapalm24en\/\">Facebook<\/a> \/ <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/en_informnapalm\">Twitter.<\/a><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14634","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/106"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14634"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14634\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14684,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14634\/revisions\/14684"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14638"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14634"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14634"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14634"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
