Actor and Putin sycophant Steven Seagal declares that Ukraine was ‘known for organ trafficking, child sex trafficking and Nazism’ before the invasion, as Vladimir presents him with the Russian Order of Friendship
Hollywood actor and Putin mouthpiece Steven Seagal has made the bizarre claim that Ukraine was known for ‘organ trafficking, child sex trafficking and Nazism’, while the Russian leader himself gave the sycophant the country’s Order of Friendship.
At a ceremony at the Kremlin’s Yekaterininsky Hall in Moscow today, Seagal, 72, was recognized for his “major contribution to the development of international cultural and humanitarian cooperation” in his role as US envoy.
He claimed in his speech after Putin personally pinned the medal to his chest: “Before the special operation, Ukraine was known for human trafficking, organ trafficking, drug trafficking, child sex trafficking, biochemical warfare laboratories, fascism and Nazism.
“We are still trying to make them our brothers. These poisons can affect the entire world, not just us.
“Many people say that we are facing an existential threat because of all these circumstances, but in fact the whole world is at risk of coming dangerously close to World War III.

The Order of Friendship is officially given to Russian citizens for strengthening ties between countries
It would be the first official award Seagal has received since 2003, when he was named Worst Actor at the Razzies, a parody awards show that “honors” bad movies.
“We are fighting the same monster that seeks to devour, conquer and control the world through lies, disinformation and manipulation.”

It would be the first official award Seagal has received since 2003, when he was named Worst Actor at the Razzies, a parody awards show that “honors” bad movies, for his role in Half Past Dead.
Seagal has been a Russian citizen since 2016, when Vladimir Putin presented him with a Russian passport for vocally supporting Russia’s annexation of Crimea.
For this, he was banned from entering Ukraine for five years the following year.

In 2022, Seagal was photographed visiting a prison camp in Olenivka, Ukraine, a Russian-controlled prison that housed hundreds of Ukrainian prisoners.
The pair first bonded over their shared love of martial arts. The 72-year-old praised his friend as the “greatest world leader” and claimed the future in Russia would be “the best” under the dictator’s rule.
He was last seen earlier this month at Putin’s fifth consecutive presidential inauguration at the gilded Grand Kremlin Palace, after an election dogged by allegations of systematic manipulation.
