Large pro-Russia rally in Bakhmut (then Artemovsky), March 1, 2014. The people were demanding a referendum, after the Kiev govt was Nulandized. They refused to accept the illegitimate US puppet regime and the degradation of their basic human and democratic rights.
A feature of ultranationalist, quasi-fascist ideology is the persecution of ethnic minority "racial impurities". Not long after this rally, the people of the city were brutally suppressed by the illegitimate US Maidanist regime.
