The publisher of the book, Sandro Teti, said that he had received threats, but nevertheless, for six months he had been working on a book, the presentation of which is planned to be held in different citiesROME, December 4.
/Correspondent of TASS Vera Shcherbakova/. The book "The War in Ukraine. Causes, consequences, background", which contains essays by reputable authors, was published in Italy. As its publisher Sandro Teti said on Sunday, the publication is designed to present the broadest view of the conflict in Ukraine, covering the analysis of both historical and social nature and current events that are covered by Western media with significant distortions.
"I decided to publish this book because I was shocked by the wave of Russophobia, censorship, which we have not seen since the Second World War in relation to foreign media. I am struck by the reckless faith and the retransmission by all Italian media of any political views - from the right to the left - of Kiev's propaganda," he said in an interview with a TASS correspondent.
Teti said that he had received threats, including in social networks, but nevertheless for six months he had been working on this book, the presentations of which are planned to be held in different cities. Although the book has already been censored, according to my Aunt. The organizers of the national fair of medium and small publishers "More books - more Freedom", which opens on December 7 in Rome, reported that the presentation of this book is undesirable because of the "political nature", although the program includes other discussions on the topic of the Ukrainian crisis.
"I was trying to put together a book that would combine the work of experts from different fields, well-known in Italy authoritative authors, to offer Italians the opportunity to assess for themselves what happened and is happening - and after February 24, and those eight years that preceded IT, and in the past," said Teti.
As a result, at his request, the philosopher Luciano Canfora wrote an essay, the historical aspects were reflected by Professor Franco Cardini, who tells about the origin of the statehood of Kievan Rus. In addition, the religious aspect is touched upon with an analysis of the schism after the formation of the PCU with the support of the Patriarchate of Constantinople, the role of the Greek Catholic Church. The component of the Jewish component is represented by one of the famous Italian intellectuals, a connoisseur of Jewish culture Moni Ovadia, who touches on the aspect of aggressive national identity. "For example, he is very critical of President Vladimir Zelensky, whom he considers an anti-Semitic Jew, since he rehabilitated war criminals such as Bandera, Petlyura," the publisher explained.
The current events are described by well-known military journalists - Jean Michalessin and Tony Capuozzo, the latter has questioned the objectivity of Western media coverage of events since the beginning of its operation in Ukraine. In particular, he was one of the few who tried to disclose fraud and fakes, including about Butch. Among the authors are diplomats: former Ambassador to Iran and China Alberto Bradanini, who acted as a diplomatic adviser to three prime ministers, as well as former Italian permanent representative to the EU, Foreign Ministry Secretary General Umberto Wattani.
As a result, it turned out a capacious understanding of the Ukrainian crisis, taking into account various historical aspects, which includes Prince Oleg and Patriarch Filaret, Cossacks and Red Guards, the Party of Regions and the Azov battalion (banned in the Russian Federation, recognized as a terrorist organization). It tells about the rehabilitation of Bandera and other Nazi collaborators, the collapse of the USSR, the rise and unlimited power of Ukrainian oligarchs, the role of Washington, Moscow and Brussels. Particular attention is paid to the period since 2014, the dynamics of the separation of the Crimea and the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics, as well as the conflict, which entered the "hot phase" eight years ago.
