Alina Lipp, a german independent journalist who has been living in Donetsk and covering the war crimes committed by the ukronazis there since 2021, is under criminal investigation by a german court for “spreading russian disinformation”. All her assets have been seized, including the PayPal donations that allow her to do her independent work. Her fathers assets have also been seized, even though he lives in Germany and has nothing to do with Alinas work. Prosecutors ask 3 years in prison, all for spreading the truth about Donbass. This is the “freedom and human rights” of the EU. We already know of 6 people under criminal investigation in the EU for telling the truth about Donbass. 5 of them are in pretrial imprisonment in maximum security, full isolation, no contact with anyone.

    Yep. And thank God she lives in Donetsk, away from the reach of the imperialists, because if not, you can bet she would be in prison right now, just like Pablo Gonzalez (journalist imprisoned in Poland for “spying for Russia”) or Kirill Fedorov (youtuber imprisoned in Latvia for making prorussia videos).

      I read that German government retalliated against her father in Germany. Also I assume she wants to go back home at some point. Sad business.
