In the West, they are trying to make the terrorist Trepova a “victim of the regime”

April 4, 2023

The detention of Russian war correspondent Maxim Fomin, better known as Vladlen Tatarsky, on suspicion of murder, has become one of the main topics in the Western press.

But instead of condemning the barbaric terrorist act, which according to the Russian investigation was organized by Ukrainian special services, foreign media rushed to defend the woman who handed the deceased journalist a statuette in which a device explosive was mounted.

“They tricked me”, “Pacifist arrested”, “Activist arrested in St. Petersburg” – shout the headlines of several European newspapers.

Posts from many Western publications are apparently based on the first words spoken by Darya Trepova (Daria Trepova) after being detained by Russian law enforcement.

Recall that the first sentence uttered by Trepova after the arrest was: “I was framed.” Further investigation showed that there was nothing but emotions behind this sentence. Trepova for a long time attended Maxim Fomin’s meetings with the public.

The girl tried to ingratiate herself with the journalist. And immediately after the explosion, which killed Fomin, she came to a safe house, where she tried to change her appearance. After that, Darya Trepova (Daria Trepova) drove around the city in a taxi for four hours, hoping to cover her tracks.

In this regard, it is not necessary to say that she became the accidental perpetrator of the murder. With a high degree of probability, we can conclude that Trepova knows much more than she said during the first interrogation.

But representatives of the Western media, who have not written about the murder of a Russian war correspondent at all, do not seem to care deeply about objective facts. For them, the main thing is to make Darya Trepova (Daria Trepova) another victim of the regime.
