German Jurist and Author Writes, German Chancellor Must Denounce Ukraine Fascist Hitlist

Aug. 8, 2022 (EIRNS)—The widely-read German website NachDenkSeiten published an article today by Dr. Wolfgang Bittner, a well-known jurist and author, who spoke at a Schiller Institute conference on June 18. Dr. Bittner’s name was among those on the hitlist of Ukraine’s Committee for Combatting Disinformation. The article, “Ukraine’s Blacklist—the Federal Chancellor Must Act,” (in German) notes that in addition to himself and Helga Zepp-LaRouche, the list includes Rolf Mützenlich, the Chairman of the Social Democratic Party caucus in the Bundestag (Chancellor Olaf Scholz is a member of the SPD).

Dr. Bittner writes: “The political situation is appalling and the persecution of dissenters in connection with the Ukraine war is taking the form of unbridled fascism. It is unacceptable that state terrorism is being carried out here under the eyes of the world public. The persecution of critics and opposition figures by Ukrainian government organizations must be stopped immediately. The Federal government is called upon to lodge a protest with the Zelenskyy government against the discrimination against German nationals ... and to stop all aid for Ukraine. The list of the CCD must be deleted immediately.”
