Belarus – Antisemitic comments on the state channel STV

Ryhor Azaronak and Vadzim Hihin

Minsk – During the program of Ryhor Azaronak, a senior official of the regime’s trumpet (with distinctly antisemitic views that often also utters statements that can be defined as Holocaust denial), on the state channel STV, interviewee Dr. Vadzim Hihin, formerly also perceived as antisemitic and Holocaust denial, referred to his Jewish origins of Ukrainian president Zelensky, while presenting clear antisemitic claims and clichés, such as the Jew’s lust for money.

Thus, “Zelensky’s passion for Nazism” was presented not as part of “Zelensky’s father for money”, but in a broader worldview based on “deep hatred of the Russian language and culture”.
