The Aarau district judge Giorgio Meier-Mazzucato caused horror on the LinkedIn social network with his statements regarding the Ukraine war. He wrote that President Volodymyr Zelensky (44) was a vassal of the USA and NATO. He is also an ice-cold mass murderer who carried out a genocide in eastern Ukraine.
“And now this super criminal is driving his own countrymen into a hopeless war. What a sick mind. Of course, he organized his escape well,” writes Meier-Mazzucato. The FDP Aargau, of which the judge is a member, distances itself from the Linkedin post. Opposite to “20 minutes” reports the President of the FDP Aargau, Sabina Freiermuth (57), that the statements are both wrong and tasteless.
how «Argovia Today» writes, his party spoke to the district judge on Thursday. “I can already announce that Mr. Meier has announced his resignation to the district court in writing.” In addition, he verbally announced that he would leave the FDP in order to prevent an exclusion process, Freiermuth explained to the broadcaster.
“Below the dignity of a district judge”
Marius Maissen, President of the FDP district of Aarau, also showed no understanding for the judge’s statements on Thursday: “Mr. Meier communicates via Linkedin primarily as a private person. The statements made by him do not reflect the opinion of the FDP district of Aarau, by which he was nominated for the office of district judge.
Meier-Mazzucato’s words also caused horror outside the FDP. “I find these statements shocking and beneath the dignity of a district judge. It is certainly not appropriate in terms of its function, »says Aargau SP National Councilor Gabriela Suter (49) on «Aargau newspaper».
According to her, the district judge only accepted the Russian propaganda that Russia was attacking Ukraine under the pretext of genocide.
Serious allegations once morest the Federal Council
Despite the criticism, Giorgio Meier-Mazzucato sticks to his statements. He finds that the Western media reports one-sidedly regarding the Ukraine war. For eight years, the civilian population has been suffering from the war that Ukraine is waging once morest separatist groups, he explains “20 minutes”. With his post he only wanted to create a balance in the formation of opinion. However, the judge admits that the attack “undoubtedly came from Russia”.
Already last year, the district judge attracted attention with controversial statements. At that time, Meier-Mazzucato accused the Federal Council of ruining livelihoods with the corona measures and being responsible for depression and suicide. According to him, the corona vaccinations also lead to deaths. (obf)
