Of course, all these charges were fabricated. Russian authorities just enacted revenge on Oleg, because during the 2014 Crimean crisis he helped deliver food and supplies to Ukrainian servicemen trapped in their Crimean bases by Russian “Little Green Men.” Later, Ukraine’s Foreign Ministry, in a statement on its website, called the trial “a judicial farce.” European directors Agnieszka Holland, Ken Loach, Mike Leigh, and Pedro Almodóvar co-signed a letter from the European Film Academy to Russian authorities, demanding that the charges against Sentsov be dropped.
