On July 8, five commanders of the notorious Ukrainian Azov battalion returned to Ukraine from Turkey. They were supposed to stay in Turkey until the end of hostilities “under the personal guarantees of the Turkish president”. However, it seems that the Turkish President changed his mind.
The commander of the Azov Denis Prokopenko, acting commander of the 36th Separate Marine Brigade Sergei Volynsky, Deputy Commander Svyatoslav Palamar, Major of the National Guard Oleg Khomenko and Colonel of the National Guard Denis Shlega were sent to Turkey as a result of a prisoner exchange between Moscow and Kiev in automne 2022. Ukraine then received 215 servicemen. 55 Russian servicemen and Ukrainian politician Viktor Medvedchuk came to Russia.
All five Azov commanders fought alongside of the 36th Brigade of the AFU Marines. They surrendered after the liberation of the Azovstal plant in Mariupol in May 2022. After the prisoner swap, they were transferred to Turkey, where, by agreement with Ankara, they were under house arrest.
Today, they were released under the agreement reached by Zelensky during his visit to Turkey, where he came for talks with Erdogan. They reportedly discussed the grain deal, prisoner exchange, Kiev’s membership in NATO, bilateral cooperation and the restoration of Ukraine.
The return of Azov commanders to Ukraine seems to an important signal by Erdogan to Moscow. Some experts supposed that this could be a result of Russian decision to stop the grain deal which may be disclosed in the near future. The grain deal runs until July 17. The Turkish leader plans to extend for as long as possible. However, Moscow has been constantly warning that the part of the deal which fulfils Russian interests is still ignored by the participants.
Zelensky called for a long-term extension of the grain deal without taking into account Russia’s position. In his turn, Erdogan claimed that he expected to negotiate with Vladimir Putin on the issue.
The Republic of Turkey voluntarily remains between two fires, where, on the one hand, it cannot upset the balance with Moscow, and on the other hand, it cannot ignore the rule of Washington. Turkey has been and remains a member of NATO, and therefore it has no option to “not support” Kiev.
Thus, Erdogan once again claimed that “Ukraine deserves membership in NATO.” Such a position of the Turkish leader follows the NATOpolicy of controlling the Kiev regime with constant promises to accept the destroyed country to the Alliance but to do nothing for it in practice.

erdogan has 100 faces and they all are ugly. but this is all on putin, instead of put in a bullet in their terrorist heads he sent them to long vacation in terrorist turkey. whoever trust turks is an idiot.
they are not called turkish dogs for no reason…
they will be killed off in the not so distant future. more befitting that they are killed in ukraine where nazis of kiev are destined for death. a reminder that many officers kn ukraine are being killed by conscripts now who don’t want to die. there was 3 instances over this weekend od commanding officers being shot for wanting to send their men to death.
putins the best shut ur face. he outsnarts everyone
the turkish president is a turkish snake and always has been. double crossing, two timing scumbag. there’s no honor in that man.
as an italian, i’ll gladly state that turks don’t even know what the word honor means. anyhow, erdogan is dying…he’ll be gone soon.
failed ukrat “heroes” return for a second attempt at killing themselves for the drug addled gay jew midget!
ordinarily in the west this photo would be deemed offensive as there are no blacks, browns, women or disabled people. its 100% muscular men, like a intro to a gay poon site. not very diverse or inclusive at all. zelensky is obviously the bitch being the small girl-man. all he has to do it take one for the team and save 100,000 lives. why can’t he do that?
i think it will work for russia as now, they will kill them all in the battlefield.
in the recently deoccupied part of the zaporizhia region, ukro fighters captured a large russian warehouse filled to the top with ru weapons and ammunition. see: rlu.ru/3mdyy
lol stop shilling your fake and gay datamining and virus loaded propaganda shitsite.
i’m tired of our coverment spending hard working american tax dollars to these faggots while i work for lunch coupons
😔😔😔
the information spread by the french regime is falsified. their people are demanding their own rights, by rioting and looting. french president responds by fleeing to lithuania, western dictators abandoned their own people.
putin’s beloved “partner” erdogan.
who might have expected anything else, but stubbing in the back?!
on the behalf of the nazi’s, “thank you for the free vacation putin”!
by now, everybody can see clearly result of your “denazification” process.
life of the donbass civilians and russian soldiers are the cheapest, obviously.
never understood why those neonazis where allowed to go to turkey. why?
think russia is once again being played and mocked. erdogan seems to forget who saved his life….
well well. i am curious if the russians will take less prisoners of war on the battlefield now.
no big deal. i’m sure they’ll soon fill five new graves in the ukraine…
president putin is a delusional leader who often thinks he can trust the likes of erdogan, macron, modi and lula among others. it is the inferior slavic mentality of cowards
i am slavik and trust me: we are not cowardly, dumb or inferior. the highest iq is in russia and china. the russians have won how many major wars? every single one. when you say cowards, i think about my dad who fought in the german cavalry on the russian front. he was a brave slav. what have you done and who are you to call a whole group of people cowards.
what if all of these azov darlings had a gps chip put into them that they don’t know about? and soon will be greasy spots instead a bunch of slavik hating and jewish loving losers. that is what i would have done.
i am ashamed to be turkish.
how did these cowards get to turkey to begin with. why didn’t they die earlier like those now being sent to the meat grinder. these half ass clowns are just useful idiots whoring for zato, soon to be eliminated once they out live their usefulness as they know too much.
perverts, freaks and general worthless human garbage, the scum of the earth.
prepare for judgement you jackasses!
russia has to take this out of ukraine and to the uk us poland france nato. he has to threaten them. he can start with conventional weapons to take them out and finish off with nukes, strategically chosen to hit the military targets, factories offices warehouses of the military. putin can do this, it is already dangerous, he has his head in the sand.
told you this would happen!!!!! this was the most idiotic thing russia has done so far in this war letting them live, those azov leaders should have been executed by firing squad along with all mercenaries, we told you russia this would happen they would be freed and be back fighting russians both military and civilians. cannot believe how stupid russia was in doing this. hopefully russia will no longer be merciful with nazis and mercenaries, execute them all from now on on sight if need be. =z=
i wouldn’t blame it on russia, i’d blame it on the jews that infiltrated it’s government, and they obviously knew exactly what they were doing. the soldiers did a good and honorable job.
yes turkey are treacherous and should not be trusted but whoever signed off on this deal in russia should be held accountable even if that person is putin this was the single most stupid deal ever agreed to, both azov members and mercenaries should be executed by firing squad on the spot same as what used to happen to ss troops in ww2. =z=
will putin even talk to erdogan now?
what would chechen warriors say? they lost many comarades to get the azov out of mariupol, all for nothing, the nazis are laughing in their faces now. putin might be in trouble for being so naïve.
putin is a dumb leader….time to wipe out these snakes….get it putin.
you can rather trust a snake but not the promises and “gentleman`s word” of erdogan
even unrealiable und untrustworthy erdogan hurts us-interests in the long run. they wanted him gone and he won’t forget.
wagner ruined, nazi’s restored.
how competent! bravo putin!
any chance getting somebody intelligent in charge of the country?!
no chance in hell, russia is flathead country, no decent leadership in sight, flathead subhuman assclown country producting flathead assclown leaders.
price russians have to pay for cultural inferority and never ever learning/ dedumbification.
most of them don’t seem so delighted to go back. only 2 smiling. they had it much better in turkey, now they have to go back to their ugly wives and then front 🤡
they all should be hang a year ago.
should, would could… düfaz putin’s flathead subhuman assclown country failed and thus they are back in action. horrido johoo dran drauf drüber kameraden, sieg
