You can see the bias in this documentary. When the Chechens carried out an ethical cleansing and expelled almost a million Russian residents from Chechnya, since the end of the Soviet Union, the speaker does not think the reason for the attack is big enough, and he presents the eleventh of September as a righteous revenge and the massacre of hundreds of thousands of civilians, which Putin is supposed to use to turn attention from Chechnya. In addition, America's Netting of Rebellion to Break Russia is omitted.

I went to Grozy about 5 years ago. The rebuilding of it was incredible, and the locals were friendly and seemed happy. But you can still tell that some time ago; it went through a terrible terrible siege, like some German cities and when I also visited Volgograd that very trip. I have no doubts Mariupol will have the same feel in a decade.

I wish you also mentioned that the main defender of the city was a close friend to the attacking commander, and their comms have been recorded extensively. It's a very tragic part of the war. The siege leader asked the other side to give up multiple times, but they were adamant even in the face of destruction. By the last transmission it is basically two friends saying their goodbyes to each other.

У историков, рассказывающих о конфликтах других стран, но когда их родные страны в них не принимали участие- преподносят информацию объективно и непредвзято . Не важно кто: российские ,американские и т.д. Но когда в ней участвует твоя страна, тут начинается субъективщина :замолчивание фактов, искажения и интерпретации на удобный вам лад и т.д. Немногие могут через это переступить.

If you want to be chilled to your bones, listen to the conversation between the defending commander in Grozny and the attacking commander. They were acquaintances and the defender knew his ambush would annihilate the Russians so he begged him to have pity for their mothers and retreat, not to kill his own men and that noone would win in this war. All he got in reply was that he had orders and he would follow them.

The police arrested them only to find out later that they were FSB agents. Initially local police reports registered that the bags contained explosive materials, later it was stated by federals that it was only sugar. So who was really bombing apartments is still debated
