Doubting Ukraine’s counter-offensive undermines its heroic resistance – a response to The Australian’s Adam Creighton

August 18, 2023 by CYOA Administrator

The Australian has published a response from the AFUO’s Co-Chair, Stefan Romaniw, to an inexcusable piece of journalism by Adam Creighton which appeared in Monday’s edition of the newspaper. 

We know that many members of our community were similarly shocked and angered by Creighton’s article which repeated russian disinformation, bias and falsehoods.

Thank you to all who wrote to The Australian to lodge their affront and voice their concern that a major Australian newspaper would publish an article which would fall so short of basic professional standards.

To read both articles, go to the Newsroom on our website.

You can also check out a powerful response to Creighton’spiece from Pete Shmigel, published in the Kyiv Post, here: https://www.kyivpost.com/opinion/20632
