A Russia Today host Anton Krasovskiy has been expelled from his job after suggesting “to drown children, who say that Ukraine is occupied by Russia, in the river”.

The idea came to him during a live broadcasting of a talk show, according to reports.

Speaking about Ukraine with a writer Sergey Lukyanenko, Krasovsiy said about Ukrainian children: “They had to drown such [children] in Tisin.. To drown these children, drown..”

These actions, apparently, seemed not to be satisfying enough for the host as the next idea he offered was “to lock Ukrainian children in a house and burn them down.”

Soon after the show, the Russia Today editor in chief Margarita Simonyan announced about  the company’s decision to terminate the working relationship with Krasovskiy.

The Russia Today is the biggest television network of Russian propaganda that provides Internet content in English, Russian, German, Spanish, French, and Arabic.

The Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba believes that the broadcasting of Russia Today should be banned around the world.
