Later Rogozin published another post comparing the Ukrainians in the video to monkeys.
In the comments, users are surprised by Dmitry Rogozin's blatant racism, and also recall how he started his political career in nationalist movements and regularly participated in Russian marches in the early 90s.
Among others, American astronaut Scott Kelly came to criticize Rogozin in a replay. The astronaut recommended that Rogozin wear "armored diapers," alluding to the damage to Rogozin's buttocks that he suffered as a result of the shelling.
After the wave of criticism, Rogozin himself wrote in his Telegram channel that he allegedly had no other social networks except for his Telegram channel and VKontakte page, calling the other accounts "bots," but almost immediately deleted the post. And later he published a post in VK in which he called not only the U.S. Secretary of Defense but also Joe Biden and Olaf Scholz "dirty monkeys".
"Last night some citizens-internationalists got very excited why in my bots, and here, I allegedly called the U.S. Secretary of Defense a monkey. To make it clear. Austin, Biden, Scholz, and other enemies of Russia are dirty monkey-bandarlogs. War criminals. I think so," he wrote.
Also today Rogozin decided to "congratulate" the Russian occupiers with the first "destroyed Abrams". In his Telegram channel he reposted the publication. In the photo - a fighter with a patch in the form of a kolovrat.
"Grandpa Bidon, wake up, old geezer! We begin the general frying of your Abrams!" wrote Rogozin.
