 Interessantes Interview mit einer ukrainischen Journalistin:

Keine Frage: Diana Panchenko wird von der Ukraine und dem Westen bezichtigt, nur eine Propaganda-Marionette der Russen zu sein, doch sogar wenn man sich nur ihren Wikipedia-Artikel ansieht, kommen einem doch erhebliche Zweifel an dieser Abstempelung!

In 2010, Panchenko graduated from the Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute with a degree in publishing and editing, and in 2018, she graduated from Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv with a degree in law. She worked in Gazeta.ua, Kyiv TV and NewsOne.

In 2020 she was awarded the "Journalist of the Year" by the Ukrainian program "Person of the Year-2020". The same year she placed 7th in the ranking of "The Most Influential Women in Ukraine according to readers of the Focus website". In 2021, she was nominated for the UNESCO/Guillermo Cano World Press Freedom Prize.

Panchenko worked for the pro-Russian TV-Station NewsOne. Following the outlawing of NewsOne late February 2021, Panchenko moved to its successor The First Independent TV Channel. This channel was shut down an hour after it launched. On 26 February 2021, she co-founded the Journalists' Defense Club movement. Diana was the host of the Slavonic Bazaar music festival, which took place in July 2021 in Vitebsk. After the event, Panchenko was summoned to the National Television and Radio Broadcasting Council for explanations.

At the onset of the war in February 2022, Panchenko condemned Russia's invasion and Vladimir Putin's decision to escalate the already strained relations between Russia and Ukraine. From the very first days of the war, Panchenko called for negotiations stating that "A bad peace is better than a good war".

Die Wahrheit stirbt im Krieg stets einen schnellen Tod. Aber es ist hilfreich, nicht nur die Propaganda einer Seite vorgesetzt zu bekommen, sodass man sich seine Meinung zur (vermutlichen) Wahrheit immerhin selbst bilden kann ...
